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.
Hi there,
Are there any method to hide the SIM contacts in i900 default phonebook?
I am using NRG Rose Rom v1.7 - Remade by Ricky and Stylez, the problem I have is I would like to keep a backup of all my contacts on the SIM. The contacts now show up as duplicates because there is one on the SIM card and on the phone. My brother has a HTC Hermes and there is an application that's lets his configure his phone so he can hide the SIM contacts from his contacts. I don't have this program and the closest thing to it would probably be the registry editor. Anyone know how to hide the SIM contacts in the contacts.
Edit
Never mind I figured out how to do it. In case anyone is interested the option is in Setting -> Phone -> Call Options -> De-select Show SIM Contacts
can any one tell how to hide sim contacts after coping simcontacts in contacts in my htc touch

Is there any way to tweak a setting to permanently show either SIM contacts OR local contacts? My list shows duplicates as it shows both lists.
To hide SIM contacts, edit this registry entry
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone
(DWORD) ShowSIM = 0
Awesome, thank you!
Will that also do the same thing for SMS/MMS contacts?
