You need to transfer your contacts from your sim card to your phone.
Hi, I believe that you have to save your SIM Contacts to your phone and then you can add pictures and put them on favourites. There is an Import SIM Contacts feature under People/All People/Menu. i think you can find information on this in the User Guide.
Regards.
thank you, you guys helped
by the way.. when i get a new txt message it shows the previous message that i already replied.. do you guys know any solutions for that?

hehehe...
Just search the forums for SIM contacts registy.
thx for that one! after searching for half an eternity, i guess i found what i was looking for...
if u didnt want to show SIM contact in Contact add this key
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"ShowSim"=dword:0
is there any other way to achieve what i am trying to do...?!?
anyone?
btw: how can edit the registry without installing an extra reg editor like resco explorer...?
thx in advance, especially for concrete answers or links....
That's the only way I know to hide the sim contacts (or delete them from your sim)
To do that you will need a registry editor, resco is a good one.
Hey.. this might be a really stupid question but I got my HD today and I have copied all the contacts from my SIM to the phone. Now when I go into the contacts it shows both the phone and the sim version of that contact. Is there anyway to hide the sim contacts so it only shows the contacts saved to the phone? this is quite a basic function in most phones so im assuming you can do it and ive just no been able to figure out how. Cheers.

You failed to search before posting a question. Use either HD Tweak or Advanced Configuration to solve your problem.
I tried searching for hours. When you go to write a new sms you click on the avatar icon in top right corner to choose your contacts for the sms. It shows both phone contacts and sim contacts. I just want to view phone contacts to choose from.
I have my phone set to view only contacts from phone. I even tried this registry edit HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone -> ShowSIM=0
I know that BSB tweaks has an option to hide sim but I suspect it doesnt hide sim contacts for sms also. I try and stay away from these tweaking programs as much as possible and do everything with registry or small cab mods.
Is there a way to hide these sim contacts for sms?
I make backup and deleted contacts from sim card.
i'm also facing this problem =.= many of my sms (conversation mode) shows the SIM sign instead of the picture/photo integrated wif my phone contact. And I want to keep my SIM contact as well in case of emergency so i cnt do what deserted did :/
Seems to be a simple issue that just doesnt have a solution other than deleting the contacts on the sim card.
BSB tweaks does not fix this issue either.
Anybody know how to do this? I just can't believe that deleting is the only solution.
SOS
I need the solution too, anybody?=??

I guess there is no solution for the HD2 except to delete.
Contacts -> Menu -> View -> Is for Contacts, but I have acctualy never had contacts on my SIM card, so I have no idea if it works for SMS...

Works for me.
Then you are the only one. Sim contacts are still shown on mine. For the contacts page it does work. But go to messages and the sim contacts are still showing there.
we most definietly need a small cab or tweak for this...
i mean.. compared to all the other amazing stuff you developers end up doing.. this should be a walk in the park..... do we have any takers... i also can't imagine it taking that long either...
before you say it...
if i was talented enough or knowledgable in that depoartment.. i would be making crazy cabs for this community left and right.. but unfortunately.. i can't.. my talents lie elsewhere... so please.. can someone just resolve this issue???
hi guys i need your help with my noob problem...
in some weird way my SGS isn't able to find my sim contacts even though they are there.. i can see all of them when i want to write an sms for example or when i punch in a phone number.. but the contact list is empty..
Ive tried to look in the settings to see if i aciddently unticked something.. but it seems that the phone/andriod doesnt have an option to switch between phone and sim card..IE im not able to point the phone to my sim contacts
This is my first android.. old htc diamond/nokia user
Anyone know how to solve this crazy problem
Thanks in advance

Open up your contact list and press the menu button > display options > tick SIM. It should show your sim contacts now.
Hi
Thanks for the reply
but i dont have the option to choose SIM, just phone, facebook and Gmail
-TB-
Thats wierd. I don't know why that would be.
I also have this problem
hmm maybe its a bug
maybe its a euro rom problem? flash to new rom maybe?
Sorry to bump this.. But am i really the one with this issue?
-TB-
Mine let's me have that option. No problem wither showing or hiding contacts from SIM cards.
hi, guys. i got an unmodded TMOUS hd2 6.5. i installed an app called 'icontact'. the problem is that it doesnt read my contacts from the sim card. is there a way to get it to read contacts from my sim? or is there a way to download a file containing the list of contacts from my sim, then get 'icontact' to load it?
