how to disable the stk menu from WM5 !!!

i want to disable the stk menu from WM5
decause the STK menu always auto startup when i was using programs,I'm crazy!~!~!~
did anyone tell me how to do?
Thank u!!!

STK menu?

Yeap, STK Menu is the services which our provider ex. Vodafone put in the sim card.

Ok, I got an idea. Might sound stupid and is not the most ellegant solution but it will work: Why don't we put together a little program that deletes the shortcut and we put this program in the startup folder? This way the icon won't reappear after each soft-reset.
Can anybody here do this for me? Just a simple little program to delete the file. The one which needs to be deleted is:
\\Windows\Startmenü\Programme\Special.lnk
Thank you so much!

Can you change the title of this thread to a ? not a !
Otherwise it looks like you have an answer, not a question.
STK is partly to do with your sim, and partly your OS. What kind of SIM are you using? Ie a dual sim etc?

Hi! Sorry I can't edit the title as I didn't start the thread. I only have the same problem and thought about it.
I am using a T-Mobile Germany SIM. No Dual-Sim in the game. Do you have a better idea how to get rid of the shortcut being created after every softreset?
ROM: 2.18.7.7 GER (QTEK)

XDA II: don't worry, I wasn't asking you to change the title of the thread, I was talking to ncwjk
But I don't think your idea would work - how would you run your little program - you'd put it in the \startup\ folder.
So you would just be gambling that the phone would run your program before stk, since we can't be sure which one would run first. So STk might run first, or your program might be run first... not sure though. I don't use STK so can test it.

Ok, I can see your point. However I don't think there's anything to lose. If anybody can make that little program I am willing to try it. Worst case is that it does not work, or am I wrong?
Or is there a possibility to completely remove STK? You say you don't use it. I don't either, but it's there.... Can it be deactivated on the SIM maybe?

there is no way to disable it!
i got to China mobile to change a sim card without stk menu,
they told me,all sim card with stk menu now,so can't help me!

I got this new sim card in Jan,2006
my old sim card don't have this problem!
but, this time,i must use the new card number!
so,i hope there is a way to disable the stk menu!
help me~! tky

contacts problem..plzz help..!!

hi.. I have a MDA Vario in that i cannot view the contacts on my sim without copying dem to my phone..can someone plzzzz help me and tell me as to how can i view my sim contacts in my contacts folder...without copying them to the phone..THANKS a lot...

Have you tried Sim Manager in the programs folder? I see a list of my SIM contacts but they are not copied to the phone, however the option is there under Tools menu if you wish to do a copy.

Contacts: Sim to Memory

Is there any way to transfer my contacts from my sim card to my phone memory, or my memory stick?
Thanks!

You can do that through the Sim Manger application. there should be a shortcut in the Programs menu. if you have deleted the shortcut it should be under the \windows directory. You can select all of the contacts there and use the menu to select "save to Contacts"

Thank you very much . Is there anyway to transfer from phone to simcard just in case I need to switch my phone?

Yeah, that's the question.

use this freeware to select all contacts and copy them to sim card

Thank you so much, just what I needed, I'll give it a try.
Oh, BTW, does anyone have an idea how to edit your contact's information via computer? I've tried but I can't seem to figure it out. I find it a really big hassle to edit everyone's information through my 8125 because I just transferred them from the sim card so I only have their names and numbers. I have a lot of contacts. :? Thanks if anyone can help.

You can do it through MS Outlook>Contacts. Sync and edit, and sync again. I use Outlook 2003.

Oh, so simple, thank you! I tried it before but I was using Outlook Express so I guess it didn't work.

to sync data from OE you would need 3rd party software like

How to compleatly delete the locked phonebook entries

I just installed a new rom (UDK's Vega 8.0 r1) and am so hasseled by the annoying default contacts (ambulance; fire....and so on)
How do I delete these entries?
10x in advance
Itay

Are you sure that it's not from an application that you might have installed?

VERY SURE
clean install

they come from the sim card. I think (but not sure) that every phone courier has it burned into their sim card.
you can hide sim card contacts using the AdvancedConfig tool from Schaps, do a search to find it on the forum.

solution
I had the same...
Just install a config-app like schapps advanced config on your phone and uncheck "show sim contacts"....

the hd2 doesnt store them on the sim, so if they werent already on the sim card before, then they've gone. (I take it you havent been using myphone, or outlook, or exchange, or pim manager, or some other contact backup prog?)

sure i understand the contacts not on the sim which were installed to my HD2 only have gone, however there were contacts on the sim before which I cannot get hold off...when I go to people/sim manager and try to import sim contacts there are 0
whats happened?
Im assuming I have lost my sim contacts aswell?

hmm, well if - people tab - all people - menu - view - sim doesnt show any, then there aren't any i'm afraid.
