Yeah, it is any way to make it always read and write SIM Contacts instead of Phone Contacts?
What i mean is when i open Contacts, it read from SIM
when i save new contacts, its write into SIM
Thanks,

"import contact from sim"...copies all contacts from sim card to phone,....for setting contact as favourite, it should be on phone, not on sim
i have the same problem as raphy82.
I import my contacts from SIM, the Pop-Up seems to copy the contacts from SIM to internal memory. but after copying, my contacts are not on my device. only on the SIM.
I use the newest official htc rom 3.14 since today.
I have found a solution for the contact import problem.
You have to open the sim manager in Phone/Contacts/Menu
Mark all your contacs and select copy in the menu.
Your phones copies your contacts on your sim to your device.

Just click on that and Voila...
Now you have your contacts both on Sim and on Phone =)

thanks but i need the oppisit i dont need the sim contacts
I also have this problem. Did anyone get only Gmail contacts to display? Not the SIM contacts.
I am interested to know how to hide the sim card contacts also in 351 - anyone has succeeded?
I use Go contacts. It will solve ur problem and available free on android market. But works great when u hav rooted phone along with Go laincher. Wht I did is disabled dell stage and enabled Go launcher as default. It saves memory and works great.
Umm, what I did was:
1. Go into your contacts.
2. Click the middle button between "Home" and "Back".
3. Click "Display Options".
4. Uncheck SIM contacts.
That should do it.
My solution is a simple one: don't put contacts on the SIM card. Haven't done it in 2+ years, and see no need to do it now.
Hi all, rather than import all my contacts from my sim to the phone, I would rather the phonebook display the contacts in my sim card.
However there doesn't seem to be an option to display SIM directory contacts
Is this possible?
Help anyone?
I pretty dread transferring all my contacts to the phone
I usually store new contacts in the SIM
+1 Help anyone?
No>>>> import from sim .

Im having issues trying to clean up my contacts Ive got many doubles and I want to clean up my phone and SIM contacts its Ive tried before to delete them but they never seem to delete from my contacts.
EDIT: NVM fixed it
For those of us that might be having the same problem, would you mind enlightening us on how you fixed it?
Do it from a PC. Yes it is painful but it only has to be done once. I do not recommend using SIM contacts for a very simple reason. Many people today have email and phones plus IM etc datafilled with their contacts. Only phone numbers are supported on the SIM and even that has a limit of 1 number per contact. so if you have a contact with 4 phone numbers, that will be 4 contacts on your SIM and in your device when you import them.
I know this is the way it worked for GSM long ago and I don't think this has changed.
Best workaround is sync to Google. If you want a local copy after cleaning things up on a PC, export you contacts to your external SD card...
I cleared the data from contacts and contact storage from manage applications and then I synced my google contacts
There is app to delete duplicate contacts ..sorry I forgot the name...but its very effective...and also just like others stated always use google to sysnc contacts...this way when getting new phones...its easier and you wont have duplicates...
1. If a contact is on both SIM and phone, they merge into one and I can't assign ringtone to that contact. How can I make them not merge?
2. Some of my Whatsapp contacts are not showing up in address book as having Whatsapp. Have refreshed and restarted phone and stuff, still doesn't work. Some of the contacts show the Whatsapp logo just fine. Any way to fix?
Many thanks.
Have you try assigning only one either phone or sim?

Yup, works when I assign only phone.
Was wondering if there's a way to do it without deleting contacts from SIM..
