"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.

HEllo, Diaclone^
Thanks, i worked,
in my phone it says not "Copie" but "Contact to SIM ..."
Just click on that and Voila...
Now you have your contacts both on Sim and on Phone =)
Good Work and Thanks

[Question] - How to make gmail the default contact save location?

Does anybody have any idea on how to make GMail the default contact save location? I had 3 options - PC Sync, SIM & Gmail, the default contact save location being PC sync.
Using Titanium Backup, I froze the "PC Sync 1.0.8" service. This removed PC Sync from the above 3 options. But I am Still left with the rest of the 2 options, the new default contact save location being SIM.
Tried freezing the "com.lge.simcontacts 1.0" service. But this doen't remove the SIM option from the contact save locations. It just disables adding new contacts to sim BUT THE OPTION STILL APPEARS AND REMAINS AS THE DEFAULT ONE.
Please help.
Why doesn't anybody answer? Is it because no one knows the answer or because I am the only ignorant person on board here?
I would also like to know how to do this!
Seems like we are the only two guys bothered by this problem.
I've had this trouble as well and not found any answer. You just need to make sure you select your Google account when adding new contacts.
no idea try to search the forum
Still waiting for the answer.

Being arrogant like that will NOT get you an answer, it will convince people to NOT give you answer because you are pissing them.
Sorry, my friend, but that is not arrogance but my frustration coming out.
You should be nicer... i dont know the answer but when i create a contact i choose pcsync and it goes to my google accaunt as well...

Do you mean to say that when you chose pc sync as the default contact save location, your new contacts are saved in your google account and on your phone simultaneously?

It should be! After i imported by hand my contacts (on .CSV format) to my gmail account they went to a place in google contacts called "My Contacts" -Note that at the time i was uploading the contacts list in CSV format i said to move it to the said "My Contacts" place!
Then i turned my phone's wifi on and it synched my Gmail contacts onto the phone! after that on "Display" i put PCSynch off , SIM Contacts off and on Gmail i put only show "My Contacts"!
Since my phone is showing my Gmail contacts, whenever i create a new contact (usually on PCSync i never bothered to change it :x) when i turn my gmail on or the android starts synching with google the contact apears on my google's "My contacts" list and therefore it pops back to the android contacts list!
Or so it worked for me! Some ppl say they didn't have that much trouble but hey... i had all my contacts on PCSynch and couldn't synch them to google before and now after all the hassle of importing them by hand... now i can!
Does not work for me. if I add a contact to pc sync, it still doesn't appear on the google contacts list. Have you installed any other application which helps you sync pc sync contacts with google?
Has anybody found out a way to do this yet?
The solution is still evading us. I hope that some developer sees this and provide a solution.
Your question is a a little confusing but I think this is what your after:
To set contact default to Google go into you contact list then press menu and choose view next uncheck the box that says "phone" and now your default is Google

how do u hide sim contacts

how do you hide your sim contacts after i did the update today now it has all my sim and gmail contacts and alot of doubles and all i need is my g mail contacts i
I
have the same result but want to display only my sim contacts. Actually dont wwnt any of my contacts sored to google gmail account.
go to contacts, display option, and then click on gmail account below the line "choose the contacts to display". Now unceck all box. click on "done"
Now only SIM contacts will be displayed.
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.

Aosp based Rom / contact app doesn't support using SIM contacts as default contact. You can only export SIM contacts to phone.
Samsung has 100% advantage over Google when it comes to contact management
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
Ok, I Import my contacts from sim to phone.
Now I must select option "Gmail Acc" to see only my sim contacts, without skype, viber contacts ?

with the CM10 you dont have access to the SIM card, so you cannot import/export to or from SIM card. no access at all to whatever you have on the SIM card...i have same problem, any help....? even third party apps from play store cannot access SIM card

Probably a bit long winded but you could make a backup, flash a stock rom, save ur sim contacts to ur sd card then restore ur backup and import them. I eventually realised there's no point in using ur sim card, I've just got all my contacts on Google now and use it by default, it syncs automatically so if u ever lost ur phone u could get ur contacts back on a new one easily

contacts app does not register any new contacts

I've just changed for a P20 Lite and inserted my SIM card. When using the Contacts application, I noticed that only the phone numbers with whats app are shown. the other contacts can not be shown and I even cannot register any new contact in the application. Can anyone give me some help about how to solve the problem ? thank you very much !
In contacts app tap three dots in right upper corner. Next settings - display preferences. Check what is marked. Must be all contacts. Check your sim card, do you see any contacts, if not change slot
