i have use Sim Wizard and got all numbers from sim, then i select all and Save to Contact it save but Cant See or Use it.
My contacts are there but i can see the them..
can any one help?
Hi There!
I notice that since moving my sim card from my i8910 where I didn't have duplicate contacts, that when I installed it in my new hd2, I do have duplicates but can't determine why. Usually it's because you have both sim and phone contacts displayed, but I haven't copied them to the phone yet.
i am concerned about deleting them for fear of losing them.
Also I expected contacts and on my list at the bottom I have "people" instead, and when I "add contact" it creates a new blank contact.
Where is the contacts?
Really? No-one knows the answer or has had this problem before?
Bump? Anyone?
If you remove the SIM and boot your phone, do you still have the duplicates?
Lets clarify it, do you have double contacts on your sim?
Contacts on sim have different icon them contacts on phone, does all your contacts have the same icon?
Did you sync your phone with the pc?

Nope, no contacts at all, Seems like the dupes are on the sim, though they don't show up as dupes on another phone I have here. Is there a nice tool for cleaning dupes off a sim?

Never sync'd, but all contacts look like sim contacts.
That is quit weird, I think sktools has an option to scan and delete duplicate contasts, appointments, tasks, ... U can try it. Before that backup your contacts, just in case.

Why dont you just use Microsoft MyPhone to sync all contact info. When you log in to your account then on desktop pc just click the button "search for duplicates" and there you go. You also can add/edit/delete/... every single contact info via the web interace. And next time when you click sync in your phone the changes will be made to the contacts on your phone. (also u can sync the calender, pictures, videos, even the storage card...)
Microsoft MyPhone is probably the best thing MS invented for their phones. and it works soo soo good
I tried to use MS My Phone, the problem is that it won't sync contacts on my sim, and it appears this is where the duplicates are.
I need a tool that will allow me to edit sim contacts on my PC
Copy sim contacts to outlook, delete everything on card, sync with myphone, remove duplicates, copy back to sim? Don't know if that last step is possible though...
Anyway, I really wonder how one can still use SIM contacts for everything... I haven't used SIM contacts anymore for the past ~8 years...
I could actually kill someone right now.
I copied sim to contacts, contacts to My Phone. Deleted Sim Contacts (using sim manager which I didn't know deleted contacts as well), then sync'd to My Phone and now I have 0 contacts anywhere!
I didn't know know myphone was a one way sync, now I just lost 165 contacts!
I wonder what the chances of sim contacts recovery is?
I had another phone that had a copy of my contacts from 2 months ago. Thank the Gods! Not impressed with Windows Mobile and it's crappy Contact Management though!

It's not, but it's perfectly normal it acted that way. Sync works both ways, once you have set up a sync relationship, the modifications on one side will follow the ones on the other side. That's the whole point of syncing.
I.e if you modify/delete a contact on myphone, it will modifiy/delete it on the phone on next sync. If you modify/delete on the phone, next sync will apply that to myphone. As you deleted everything on the phone, it's normal that next sync deletes them on myphone too. It can't guess the deletion wasn't intentional... You should not have synced, but have either run a restore operation, or deleted/recreated the partnership checking that myphone overwrites device.
Every sync system works that way, not just winmo/outlook/myphone... you just need to learn it

Check the "Archive" section on the MyPhone website, they are in there.
I have been trying to find this setting that will allow me to show only contacts with phone numbers. I know my galaxy s was able to do it but i cannot find it. I hate having google contacts in with my sync. I just want to get the contacts with numbers and save them to the sd card and forget the mybackups feature. does anyone have a clue how to do this? Thanks
I have an Blackjack II and i want to transfer my contacts from the old Sim and phone to my New phone and SIM. Is there an easier way to do this besides each one individually.
If you have copied all of your contacts to SIM on old phone, just insert SIM into Focus. It will pick up the contacts. Go to Settings and scroll over to People then to import SIM contacts.
How can I get contacts etc from Windows Live to Android? I have about 300 so typing them all in is really not an option.
use on market sim contact pro and you see sim and phone contact
I haven't got any contacts on SIM. Things might have changed but SIM contacts never used to support additional contact information so all contacts are in the phone memory.
Actually after starting this thread Outlook sync seems to have worked OK (without the problems of duplication I've had in the past) but it would be nice to transfer text message history to the Android handset.

This? You just gotta get your contacts imported in your Google account, and they will be synced to your phone automatically. If this guide isn't exactly what you need I'm sure a little googling will give you more than enough help.
