There are no options when u go to the persons file, and press the menu button.
I want to transfer the contacts to sim card, because I use two phones, anyone know how this can be done?
There's a free app on the marketplace called "Contact2Sim" that does that
With the new update 1.2.A.1.174 there's a new option on contact menu and you can directly do it without any app.
Anybody know how to clear your sim card's contacts?
You can find in Market "Contact Remover"

When I want to write a new SMS, and click on the contact list button to select a number, I only get all the contacts stored in the xda's memory, and not from the SIM. What am I doing wrong?
The xda doesn't access anything from the sim directly....only uses the sim manager program. Copy the entries to the main phone book to use them as described.
So my girlfriend went screwing around with custom contact ringtones, now doesn't want any of them. Tried looking and searching, to no avail, for a "default" option or something to remove. It's the stock HTC People app, with no phone modifications whatsoever. Anyone able to gimme a hand?

Hi there,
I am experiencing the same problem, so is one other user:

Did you by any change found a solution for it?

Not the most elegant workaround, but works quick and well enough:
Select the contact and hit the Menu key, then Export to SIM. Resets to Default ringtone when moved.
You can then go back to the main list of people and Import from SIM back to the Phone. This will make it Sync with Facebook normally again (FB and Google don't seem to like syncing with SIM stored contacts.)
If you have multiple contacts you wish to reset at once, hit the Menu key on the main list of People and select Import/Export > Export to SIM Card option. Then come back to the same Menu after the move and select the Import from SIM Card option.
You can tidy up the duplicates on the SIM card by filtering all other types of Contacts out with the drop-down menu at the top of the screen; check the box for SIM contacts and deselect the others, then hit Menu > Delete. Select the contacts you wish to get rid of.
Hope that helps
Hello,i wanted to set up my most called contacts as shorcuts on the home screen on my Evo,but when i chose shorcut>direct call it gives me only people with phone numbers imported from my facebook account.Is there a way to give me the contacts from my sim card only so i choose among them.I tried with people widget,but in all groups it gives me to choose from contacts from my gmail acc,only in the frequent group displayed me the contacts from my sim card,since they were the ones i called mostly.
So how do i get the phones on my screen from the sim card as shorcut?-or i should use another app from the android market.
P.S. In people i've set the options to show me only contacts from sim card and phone memory.

Try this.... Go to your "people" app and open it. Click the phonebook tab at the top, it'll let you choose which contacts to show. That's how it works on the Rom I use, (mikrunny 3.5 sense) might be different on yours. Hope this helps.
This is what to show in people app,in my case when i pick address book ,yeah i see only people from sim card.But i wonder why when i try to add the contacts as shortcut dials,i see only the ones from facebook.
is there anyone who tried to make such speed dials and experienced such difficulties?
P.s. Anyway thanks for the try
Hello Members, I've just starting to get to grips with the XZU. I've also done various Google searches on the info I'm looking for so help would be great thanks.
The problem is I'd like to keep my contacts on the SIM card, and also save them by default to the SIM card, trouble is, if I go to my contacts the only option I can see is to copy them to the phone, if I go to the SMS app and want to add a recipient none of my contacts are shown but if someone calls they appear in the call log with there contact name, so the phone is seeing my contacts in the SIM card.
So all I'd like is to continue to save new contacts to the SIM card, but also have the XZU get it's contact list from the SIM card.
Help would really be great as I'm lost to now know all my numbers (stupid I know).
Regards
Livo
Just to report regarding my post, the answer is 'no', the contacts have to be imported to the phone, this has come from Sony direct, although when the time comes any new contacts should be able to be exported back to the SIM card for future use.
Regards
I think it is an android limitation... I tried on my Galaxy Note (custom JB rom) and my old xperia x10 (custom GB rom).. both of them dont have export to sim option...
Maybe because with the current capabilities of phones, manufacturers dont see the need of saving contacts to SIM anymore...? :what:

Have you ever deleted a very important SMS which you regret for the rest of your life? Are you searching for a free SMS recovery Software? If the answer to above questions is Yes then you don’t have to worry anymore as today I will show you how to recover deleted SMS from SIM card or Phone memory.
Mod Edit: Spam removed.
You can use to undelete messages: Sim Recovery Pro. The SIM reader + software price is app more than 100 usd, So I think the better way, go to a phone service.
so glad you took the time to read this is not the correct forum
thanks !
Instead I'd just use 'go pro sms' app and take a backup from its own option to SD card and then import them back once its needed.
deleted messeges
