When I add a contact into my phone book, I want to add the contact direct to my SIM card phone book.But in EVO 3D, there is no suggestion to do this . How can I make some change to my setup to do this?
I think when you add the contact you can select at the top if you want it to be a google contact or store to sim.
I'm on ICS if that helps

Already Set to Phone Memory, But whenever am saving the new contacts it saves in Google. Don,t know why
I know what you mean, yeh. It's one of those glitches I think. My phone memory/sim memory numbers change all the time when I look in there, especially if I have to take the sim out. I think positioning of the sim is a factor too

PROBLEM Solved.
I already Set the Contacts option to Phone Memeory.
But Whenever you are trying to save a new contact, after the name option there is option of of Google, Phone and Sim. So evertime you have to select where you wanna want to save.
I really need an answer to this question. In my HD2, there is a chance to add people to contacts but only in phone memory while looking at call history. No option to add to sim. I can only add by keeping the number in my mind and add manually in sim.
Basically, wanna click to a number in call history and directly add to sim contacts. How can i achieve this? Thanks.
cant do it without adding it you your phones 'people' list too. but you can do it in around 10 seconds
press the small square icon at the right end of the call history entry, then menu - save to people - new contact, fill in details - done - then menu - save contact to sim - then when sim completes saving hit menu - delete contact to delete the people entry, and leave the contact in sim only.
I know this way of adding but just searching for a shortcut. However, i will keep doing like that unfortunately
Hello,
I have a LG Optimus One, when I receive a call or message the contact name can't show it only show the number, off course contact available at the contact list. (The contact list I sync from Gmail contact)
I don't know the problem is my phone or firmware? How can I fix it?
Pls help me.
I had similar problem - it shows wrong contact name and picture becouse it takes contacts from SIM card. Try backup contacts, remove all from SIM and copy contact directly into phone (using for ex. MyPhoneExplorer). Then restart phone.
It strange, but I didn't find another way. Also try enable/disable contact viewing optipons in menu. There is many options and after some time it started works fine on my OO, but I'm not sure what I done directly. Anyway these steps helped me.
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:
