[Q] How to enable just SIM contacts on Xperia ZL ? - Sony Xperia ZL

Hi
When I first got my Xperia ZL, I was certain that the SIM card contacts were an option to select to view as the primary contact list.
I have updated my ZL with the latest Android OS updates, and it seems the SIM card contact display option is now missing. I am only provided the option to import/export contacts from the SIM card.
Can someone pls help me get back the option of just displaying the SIM card contacts?
Thanks.

backup restore sim card ( not involving contacts )

Hi.
My wifes got a new phone and she's moved from orange to o2. The only problem is all her contacts are on the orange sim card. Does anyone know of any way of copying all the contacts from one sim to another using my BA without affecting my contacts. Something like
-remove my sim card
-insert wifeys orange card
-run magic software package to backup all contacts to <some_format>
-remove orange card and insert new blank o2 card.
-restore contact from <some_format> to new card.
I really want to avoid using 'save to contacts' from simm manager as I don't want lots of hairdressers etc in my contacts
Thanks in advance

"SIM card memoryu is full" message

Hello,
Could anyone help me? I keep getting a SIM card memory is full message although I have removed all of my contacts from there as well as deleted all of the messages. Also, how could I get my emails to be stored in the SD card? Just one more question, Everytime I try to access the phone stttings, I get a "phone not ready, retry in 15 seconds". does anyone know what this is about???
Looks like your SIM card is defect. If possible try if your SIM card works on an other phone properly.

No problems
I have tried to use my SIM card in another phone and it worked just fine. Could it be that it is automatically storing all of the emails and messages into the SIM card? How could i configure the phone to store those things into the Storage card instead???

Contacts TO sim card

Just got a replacement sim card and want to put all my phone contacts onto it. The three options I see under Import/Export are:
Import from sim card
import from sd card
export to sd card
If I select any of them, I only have the options to create account under either Google or Phone. How do I get these onto the sim card?
contact2sim (free) on the market did the job for me simon.
You may have to reboot the phone once they've been copied over to the Sim-card before you can see them but it works well.

Contacts from SIM card not showing

I updated Note 4(SM-N910P) to marshmallow and I cant access my contacts on my SIM card. Its really strange the network and data works but cant access my contacts. I can't see the SIM card whenever I try to save a contact, so I only have to save on the device or my gmail account. I have tried other SIM cards and they have the same problem. The network works alright but I just cant have access to the contacts on them. Please help

Can't select which Sim card to use

I'm not sure how long this has been, I think since the last update, but I cant select which sim i want to use to make a call or send a text with.
I only noticed this when I went to Belgium (I have a UK and Belgian Sim card in my phone). When I make a call the phone automatically uses my first Sim card (UK) and doesnt give me the option to select my second sim card (BE) anymore.
The same happens when texting.
Is this because of Truecaller? Is there something obvious I am missing?
Thanks!
Hi,
same problem here. I don't know if it's related to the latest update. I'm using dual sim since 1-2 weeks...
Temporary solution:
1. turn phone off
2. remove sim card 2
3. turn phone on
4. take at look at the dual sim card menu, if the sim card in slot 1 is recognized correctly (system settings -> sim cards)
5. if sim card in slot 1 is not recognized correlty reboot the phone
6. turn phone off
7. insert sim card 2
8. turn phone on and now you should be able to select sim your sim card for calling, sending sms and internet connection
This lasts for me till I change the settings again und leave the menu...
