Helo all! I know i am a noob here so i doubt anyone will help but.... I have an issue!
First, thanks to all who worked and figured out how to root and get JB on the Tmobile P769, awesome job!
Before reading any further i should state i searched the heck out of this subforum to find my answer but either im using the wrong search criteria or noone has ever run into this before.
Here is my issue, after rooting and flashing to JB all the contact info for my messages and phone calls is lost.
Basically both of these will only use info from the sim card and NOT the joined contacts i have set up in the phone (profile pic, ringtone, fb, ect). When i save said contacts to the phone (again) and rejoin them, it gives me multiple phone profiles but after i reboot it goes back to reading from the sim card.
For those i dont have on my sim card everything is fine and the joined contact info shows up.
Obviously i could just delete all contacts from my sim card as a fix but i was wondering if anyone had this same issue or knows how to get around this? Am i missing some option in the setup to push contacts from the phone and not the sim card?
Also, on the Contacts tab under settings -> display options -> choose contacts to display: i have it set for Custom; Phone/Starred/Facebook.
Thanks for helping me with this annoying problem and i hope to help others with there questions in the future as a return!
just wanted to post that some how i magically fixed this.... im not sure what i did tho! haha.
I was deleting contacts from my SIM card, it crashed, came back and everything was fine. Short of not recognizing my sim card and needing to reboot the phone, it was like magic.
Thread can be closed as im not sure what i did to fix and wont be able to help others if they have the same issue.

Is it possible to disable text messages on the sim card from appearing in the Messages folder without having to delete them?

Hmmm... are you sure this is the right forum to ask this?
i am using WM6....and the messages on the SIM card never appeared in WM5...so i think this is the forum i should be asking the question on? the ROM is PDAVIET 4.0.0.3 if that helps as well
Not sure if this is the right forum to ask too but I am also facing similar issues and haven't been able to find anything relevant despite trawling the forums here and elsewhere.
Here's specifically what I am experiencing:
- SMS that are saved in my SIM are getting loaded (and reloaded with each soft reset or power off/on)
- these SMS are loaded with a current timestamp (i.e. they are always current) hence often new incoming SMS are getting pushed back on the list
- this is getting really irritating as I always have to scroll back to see the latest SMS
I don't remember seeing this on WM5 and in fact I thought I remembered that there was no easy built-in method to load SMS that are saved on the SIM.
Short of deleting those SMS (which I would really like to keep on the SIM), I would really appreciate it if someone could let me know if there's a way to stop those SMS from getting loaded from the SIM.
Am currently using WM6 on HTC Hermes (Dopod 838 Pro).
hello
ive recenlty purchased a streak and was wondering if anyone has had this problem
ive imported my contact list off my sim card (i couldnt do it from my old sd as it corrupted ) now every now and then ill go into my contact list and itll wipe all the contacts and then re-add them
i did have to update the phone when i got it, which doubled up my contact list, but i had to factory reset due to not allowing me to enter 3g settings and now it does this
any ideas?
not to worry
i was browsing on here and i decided to download go contacts and all is fine now
Hi folks,
I noticed a quite strange problem. I saw in the Webcast about select a contact and just put the phone to your ear and it will automatically call that specific number. But in my phone, its dialing to a specific number. i don't know why, but it's just annoying and weird.
I am a new droid user. Please bear my noobness (as mention in the welcome video).
Thanks and Regards

Your wording threw me off there, do you mean it is calling to a random number? I haven't gotten my hands on my SIII yet so I can't give you much on the specifics for it, though if it continues giving you issues you may try doing a factory reset. I've done this to fix my tablet and some phones. This will clear everything on your phone (with the exception of the contents of your SD card) so use caution, it is a last resort. Backup contacts and whatnot.
Good morning.
I've got a little problem.
My wife wanted a smartphone so I decided to give her mine and order a 2nd hand one for myself.
She had a normal (FOMA) phone.
I took her quite-old-SIM card and put it into my X10 (flashed/rooted)
I would like to say that the only thing that changed is the SIM card and the microSD card.
I did the factory reset, and set her a new gmail account.
I can get calls out from the X10 with her SIM card, but when I try calling it, from skype or her old phone-with my sim it gets a busy tone.
On the X10 nothing appears on the screen.
Does it means the sim has a problem ? cause its old or something ? Does it relates to the phone's settings?
cause if one can make outgoing calls, it makes no sense that incoming will be a problem.
Our carrier is Docomo (Japan)...
I'll be going to the shop later but I just wanted to check here first.... My technical Japanese isnt that good - obviously and I don't want them to tell me things just cause they dont wanna fix it.
Thanks in advance...
X10
Incoming: no good
Outgoing: ok
SMS: ok
Wifi: ok
old FOMA phone
Incoming: ok
Outgoing: ok
SMS: ok
PS.
Since it worked fine before inserting the other SIM, I doubt it has to do with the ROM but... what do I know?!
Also checked here but its not the same problem as mine, since my other functions are working.

Help on the way
I think it might be the baseband or ril.
FIRST GO TO GOOGLE PLAY ON YOUR PHONE AND DOWNLOAD GETRIL. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK THEN TRY STEP 2.
SECOND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK JUST GO TO THIS LINK RIGHT HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26191697.:)
NOTE: BASEBAND MUST MATCH RIL FOR INCOMING AND OUTCOMING CALLS TO WORK.
ANOTHER THING YOU CAN DO IS DOWNLOAD Sony PC Companion HERE http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/:)
NOTE: Sony PC Companion WILL DELETE EVERYTHING BACKUP.
Hey Guys,
Desperate lurker here saying First of all thanks for all the guides and everything that the devs and everyone that the community has done. I've search all of google and xda but i can't seem to figure out what's wrong with me Xperia Z2 .D6503
. T mobile carrier.
Basically since yesterday, I noticed that my phone couldn't receive or make any phone calls. but data internet, wifi internet and text messaging was working fine. Whenever people call me, i would just get a voicemail notice. At the time I was on the Marshmallow Existence rom. Ive done a lot of troubleshooting since then and still I can only make a call on GSM Mode.
Here's what i've done.
Wiped data and "reset" my phone on the Existence ROM - didn't work.
Wiped everything and flash Resurrection ROM - didn't work still.
Used someone else's sim card , couldn't receive calls either.
Use my sim card on a different phone - that one worked (SO IT'S NOT THE SIM CARD'S FAULT)
Placed back my sim card in the Z2 and reset flashed the stock rom from this page https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/stock-t3355768
but that didn't work either.
I've also manually put the Tmobile APN.
Basically calls only work when changing it into GSM mode. but when i put LTE/WCDMA/GSM. Calls made under LTE/WCDMA/GSM Won't even make a dialtone when I make a cal. It basically just ends after a few seconds
I'm starting to think it might be a hardware issue because no matter which ROM i put, no matter how many factory resets and data wipes i've done. I can only make calls on GSM Mode.
Does anyone have any other ideas or should I just cry and buy a new phone.?
I suggest you to flash your phone with flashtool v0.9.18.6 and flash 291 ftf and wipe all
@whatsadophone
Have you try resetting APN for your SIM card when on your device?
thanks to everyone who tried to help. I don't know what happened. but after i tried putting the sim back in the Z2 to check my signals using Signal Spy, It suddenly can use LTE again. Only problem is since i installed that stock ROM, I lost my recovery mode and can't get it back. But i wont push my luck and just keep it like it is till i buy a new phone.
