i also have that problem. if you don't want to see anymore the sim contacts just go to contacts>(options menu)>filter. just follow that path and you can select which contacts you only want to see.
You could try to backup them first and then clear your SIM. If I'm not mistaken you could "format" your SIM so that all the contacts are deleted
format sim

To be honest, I have no clue. Go to a phone store and ask for a new one. You can transfer your contacts also at the store After that you can delete the ones you want
try using app called copy to sim to delete contacts then copy back what you need.

Why don't you sync to Outlook and delete everything from Outlook? That way all your contacts on the phone gets deleted and the only thing visible would be SIM contacts.
Go to programs > system Tools > Advanced Config and scroll down to phone. Choose Show Sim contacts and change the value at the bottom to NO.

Please read before posting. OP wants to only show SIM contacts.
<EDIT> Decided to keep looking through the forum and found this post. I'll try it tonight. Thanks.

Is this something that is only available in Dutty's ROM or should I see this on my Tilt with the standard ROM I purchased the device with? I would love to be able to turn off the SIM view if I could. Considering flashing the ROM, but not sure I want to jump in yet (I'm no techie!).
Thanks,

No there is the KAisersimfix.cab, the program just mentioned above and the Kaisertweak. All of which is searchable.
You're too quick! I kept on searching while you were replying and ended up finding it.
Thanks.
Hi everyone!
New to PDA phones! Im having trouble with adding contacts to my TyTN II, once added they don't show up in the contact list. It shows them in SIM manager and if i copy them to contacts from there they still dont show up! Also is there any way i can copy the contacts from my old N73 onto the TyTN II to save me hours of time???
Cheers guys!
Ok, so i have just bluetoothed all my contacts from the N73 to the TyTN II and saved them to my contact list but they still dont show up in the contacts!!! When i try to send the same contact again it asks to overwrite the contact already saved, same when i try to create a new one!! Its doing my head in!! Any ideas anyone?
sim
you need to go to your contacts in your sim and select all and then copy to contacts. that should help i think well thats what i did and all show up ok what rom are you using ie the origonal or have you flashed your rom with one like duty or alex ? as thire are a couple of cap files to fix bugs depending on which rom you use. i hope this helps as i know you have said you did that all ready.
I bluetoothed all the contacts straight to the phone, they are all there to copy to sim and when people call me it shows who is calling but when i go into the contacts list its blank. I have copied them to the sim card (they all show up in sim manager) and tried copying them back! No luck
I am running the original ROM
sim
sorry i cant help i know thire is an option to choose to use either sim for contacts or the phones contacts. but not sure where it is i think it might be in system then phone but dont take my word for it hope fully m8 some one on here who is more advanced than me might help you out. good luck
Cheers anyway buddy! I have had to put it down for now before i throw it on the floor! You cant get something good with no teething problems.
I can't seem to find a way to set my own photo/avatar. Anyone?

Log into the main account you have setup for your phone and set it there. You can also log into gtalk or gmail and chance the display picture, it'll pull it from there.
I changed the picture, and added my phone number into the details area.
What happens now?
Thanks JCopernicus, I did that and nothing happens even after sync. My display picture is still empty
Didn't work for me either...even added myself in my contacts
Click on your gray image and click on the second icon. Hit the menu button, then edit contact, then change the image.
Bet your phone number reports as 'Unknown' under the settings!
You need to program then number into your SIM before you can sort out the 'Me' picture.
EDIT: see here.
When I click the grey image it does not do anything.
That's because the phone doesn't know your own number, you have to program your SIM in another handset.
I'm not on Frodo but anyhow... Mine was pulled from my Facebook account, didn't ask it to but it did anyhow.

Does your Facebook profile contain your phone number? If so then it just matched it to the number on the SIM would be my guess.

I can't add my number using my phone. I have to take the sim card out and program the sim card to know its own number using another handset?
Yeah annoyingly enough.
Even then programming my own SIM in my spare WM phone has failed me, I need to find another one to try.
I just posted a solution using a Vio FoneMate SIM card reader that can be had for next to nothing and using DeKart Sim Softare Shareware.

Dude in the stock contacts app follow these steps and you can save your conacts to sim and also view sim contacts
Hit Menu > More > Display Options > Sim > and tick All Contacts (Contacts in sim card will not be shown in Airplane Mode)
or you can also use an app called ContactsToSIM
Hit Thanks if I helped

I do not think so. As far as I know, the stock ROM is odexed and Cm is deodexed.

Yes I agree import from both sim but to copy vice versa in sim means how to copy contacts to the sim so I can remove my sim and take bakup to other mobile which is simple not smart phone
One more problem I have found in karbon android one that after dialing *#*#4636#*#* you cannot change the network preference in sim 2 it stuck on gsm only means you cannot use 3g in sim 2
