I want to transfer the contacts in my pocket to a SIM, is there any software about (Windows mobile 2003 SE)?
I've tried "Sim manager", but it works only from sim to contacts...
Well you could open Contacts, Tap and hold a contact, Save to Sim.
Don't know of anyway to do all in one round.
To save all contacts at once:
Bring up SIP
Tap Ctl key then A -- that selects all the contacts
Tap Tools menu, then select Save to SIM
was trying to do this the other day. Had no luck figuring it out. Ended up doing about 300 contacts one at a time. :?

Hello,
I noticed that after upgrading, all SIM contacts are also present when
viewing contacts. I also noticed that it is now possible to synchronize
the contacts with the SIM contacts.
Contacts > Menu > SIM Manager > Menu > Tools > Contacts to SIM
Currently, my SIM contacts were added manually on the card.
If I were to remove them all from the SIM, and set "contacts" to
synchronize to the SIM, will the SIM contacts still show up in the
contacts list (or does it know they are synchronised, so it doesn't repeat
them)?
(a downside I see to this is that the SIM contacts can only be 14
characters in length, so the mark for home/mobile/work won't show up for
the majority of contacts; whereas I can force this when managing the SIM
contacts manually)
If they still show up, is there a way to only show contacts present on the
phone (not those on the SIM)? I gather it is possible by adding all
contacts to a group, and filter on this group; but is there an easier way?
Thanks!
Jörg

I remember with HTCustom 1.7 from Shadowmite, you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307873, you can disable the SIM contacts even exsits on the SIM, so you only see your PDA contacs.
Regards.
Hey VJ,
Before I had my Hermes I always used the SIM contacts. Now I have push e-mail with my company's exchange server I only use my exchange contacts.
I have read a thread of a guy who is selling for 20$ an exchange account on his own server.
Maybe this is an solution for you.
I have past week flashed my device about 6 times. In each case I'm up and running with all my settings in about 5 minutes. And thats because I'm not so fast.........
So the exchange push mail/contacts is working perfect for me!
Regedit this mate (taken from wiki):
Show/Hide Sim Contacts:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Phone]
"ShowSIM"=dword:00000001 ->0 to disable, 1 to enable
The rest of the wiki's reg tweaks are on the same page. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry Enjoy.
Good day, dashers!
Situation:
Someone sends me a text message.
I click on their number and add them as a SIM contact.
Problem:
When I go my picture folder and try to associate a pic with the contact, the contact doesn't appear in the pick-list.
If I go find them in Contacts, associating a pic or an icon with that contact isn't an option.
Any ideas?
Should I save them as Outlook contacts instead of SIM contacts? Won't that upload them to my work Exchange address book when I sync up at the office?
Thanks in advance!

Contact needs to be on phone memory not sim
Thank you for half-way answering my question! {/light-hearted sarcasm}
It is possible to move them to phone memory now that they are SIM contacts?
When I open Contacts, am I only seeing SIM contacts, then, or all contacts?
What am I seeing when I click on a picture and try to assign it to a contact?

Don't have my Dash available but i always use Dopod SIM Manager to copy sim to phone.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487920
The viewing of SIM contacts, phone contacts, will depend on settings, i think as default you see both if you just want to see phone after copy you can use XDA SIM Show Hide
Hope that helps
Thanks stylez.
Hmmm...when I try to save a contact my only choices are Outlook, SIM, or Windows Live.
"Phone" is not an option.

Save to sim copy to phone with the above sim manager
Thanks again!
It actually is Save to Sim, go to Sim Manager, open choice then Save to Contacts.
Open Contacts, open THAT Contact, and then it can be edited to include a picture and much more. After that I've been deleting the SIM contact to save space.
Thanks again, stylez!
Contact must to be on phone not sim, transfer them first and it will work
if u jus choose outlook option insted of sim then u dont need to go through copying it to phone... for showing n hiding sim contacts open setting - phone- call options- show hide sim contacts

A question, is there some quick and/or easy to move all contacts to google account, so i can use later facebook pictures etc? Thank you.
Hmm.. I've accomplished that by exporting the numbers to a .CSV file from my old phone and then importing them via the webbased GMail.
My Desire doesn't seem to want to export it's contacts anywhere, though...
I remember when I first inserted my sim into a Magic I imported to Google from it. Haven't looked back since
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
i think i'll do everything manually....
Go to HTC People
Press Menu
Select Import / Export
Select Export to SD Card
Select SIM
Select OK
Whilst still in HTC People
Press Menu
Select Import/Export
Select Import From SD Card
Select Google
Select Import All vCard Files
Should be done.
wow will try
possibile that will make double contacts maybe?
nope still many contacts "sim" only....ok manually it's
I have done this now, how to import facebook pics to contacts?
go into setting-> accounts and sync
over there you should have a facebook if you set it up on initial set up.make sure sync contacts is selected.
it will try match up facebook contacts with your own contacts.
the ones that do not show up, go into the menu, select people. go onto the person's name.
on the bottom scroll onto the sync looking symbol. it should be between a mail and photo option.
you will then get an option to "link facebook profile" to the user. once this link has been set it will not lose it when you upgrade your OS's
yep noticed now pics
Ok now that i fixed everything....
When someone calls me, and if he's linked to FB account, will his or her pic be shown in dialer?
Hi guys,
I have HTC Desire for only a day, but I spent most of that time searching how on earth I can attach a image/photo to a contact in my contact list.
When I take a photo of my friend, I go to photographs, select the photo, press the menu button "set as... contact photo", but then appears only blank searching screen and that is why I could not search anyone. How is that possible?
I have a few dozens, maybe hundrends of contact on my SIM card, but none of them is saved directly in Desire. Is that a problem? If so, how can I move all my contacts from SIM to phone?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, in order to attach a photo to a contact it must be on the phone(or google contact).
You can import your contacts from SIM by opening the dialer, press menu, choose "people", press menu again and choose "import/export", then select "import from sim card". Now you can export them into a phone or google account, both have option for pictures, but there is a blur bug with the google accounts when they're synchronized, i.e. it's better to choose "phone". Finally when the list comes up, you can press menu again to "select all"
Sweet, it works fine now... thanks!
Hi, I have a sprint s6 edge that's unlocked. I live overseas and I'm trying to import my sim contacts to the phone with these steps.
Start your Galaxy S6 and open the Contacts app and tap on “MORE”.
Open the “Settings” and tap at the top in the list at “Import/Export contacts”.
Now you can see the “Import”-Button at the top. This will allow you to copy the contacts from your SIM to your Samsung Galaxy S6.
In the “Import contacts from” popup you have to choose “SIM card”.
Save it to “Device”, wait a second and you’re done.
Now use the Home key to return to the home screen and you can see your contacts in the Phone book.
However the "import contacts from" popup does not have the "SIM card" option. It only shows device storage. Can anyone help?
USe Google Account to import or Export Contacts
