I need to hide/disable SIM contacts from being automatically displayed/imported !
I've searched the settings and couldn't find anything like this.

I think this is very popular issue, but I don't find any solution.
I use my SIM to store all phone numbers.
I will be very very very happy to use SIM as default destination of all new contacts.
No whats happening:
I save number in phone.
Next I copy this number in to SIM with SIM manager
Next I delete the number from phone memory
3-4 minutes for one contact and many potential mistakes....
Thank you.
Anyone?
I can't believe there is no solution
I tried a while ago for a friend of mine to et that working and didn't have any luck...
I think most people aren't going to use the SIM to store contacts as you can't do any of the advanced stuff with sim contacts(custom ringtones, attaching a pic, etc.)
i had the same problem and i finally chose to copy my sim contacts to my phone's memory and delete everything from sim... the only good thing (in my opinion) is the hability to add pictures to contacts..
hey guys, i have my contact list in people NOT to show the contacts on my sim card cause they are already into the phone with all the info and more. but when i search people or type the receiver into the TO box in messages etc they all appear again. is there a way to disable them completely?????
WITHOUT DELETING THEM cause i might use the sim card into another phone!!!
i would like to know this as well. they also show in the contact list under the phone dialer.
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.

Go to contacts list, settings filters and just check the sim contacts.

Hi,
Obviously am new to this forum and new to dual sim phones.
I have got one question:
I see that we can have all calls be either on one default sim or the phone ask you to choose. My question is whether we can somewhere assign a number to one sim, i.e. each time calling this number it will use this sim.
If anyone knows how this can be done please send me the info.
I have tried to look from the sim card manager and into contact for the different options but can't find it.
Thanks
I can't seem to send messages on SIM2 or choose how my call gets through, there is no sim icon in either messaging or in the call settings. I have H818N.
I can assign contacts permanently to either SIM - which gets used for calling but not for SMS.
Also any way to assign SMS also to particular sim for particular contacts?
EDIT: I can change global setting on which sim to use through the notification icons, but any way to do it on a per call/sms basis?
PS1: I have updated the firmware to the latest version
PS2: Any dual sim good SMS app?
Same problem here on h818n.
Did you find out yet?
As you said, you can assign the default sim for calls and sms from the quicksettings in the status bar dropdown. Couldn't find a way to make the dialer just ask wich sim to use each time tho.
As sms app i like the Google Messenger app.
As dialer i'm trying TrueDialer.
On both u can tap the sim icon and pick a sim b4 calling\sending the sms.
Has this issue been solved through software updates by LG, Or do we have to resort to using third party apps?
Nopes not yet. I still can't put a default sim for SMS. Also if I have set a default sim for a contact, I can only use that sim, which is a major inconvenience. There should be an easy way to call from the other sim.
Also would suggest using the default sms app - dual sim support of other apps is sketchy at best.
