SIM card memory full - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

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???

strange, sms are stored on the phone by default and not the sim.
Mails are not stored on the sim but the phone memory. You must have filled the memory. You can choose to store the atachments on the sd card via the mail options or you can read this tread for storing mails and mms on the sd card.

My contacts aren't showing fully in Touch

Hey guys,
I need some help, just got the HTC Touch and I'm using a 3G sim card with it. Problem is, when I go to contacts, I can only see up to 200+ contacts in my SIM Card. I've downloaded asukal SIM Manager and it still showed around 200+ contacts. Now I know I have more than this, I plugged my SIM card into another phone and it showed my contacts no problem so my contacts aren't lost.
If it helps, the SIM Manager says in SIM information;
Total phonebook size: 250
Phone book entries: 206
etc..
And the funny thing is, when I create a new contact it will be saved in the SIM Card contacts.
Anybody can help?
Thanks in advance
Can anybody help? I like this phone but I'll sell it if I can't solve this problem.
The SIM CARD has a limit for contacts: up to 250.
But maybe, there is a limitation from viewing it.
Have you tried the "Advanced Config" application? You can download it from www.pocketpcfreeware.mobi .
It a great program to manage the cellphone.

Sim Manager - Undetermined Error..

Hello guys, I'm new to X1.
I put in my old SIM card and when I click Contacts, no numbers there. Tried pulling out the card and insert back in, no luck.
I went into SIM manager, it loads for 10 seconds then an error message pops up saying Undetermined Error... what gives?
Please help, I have some important numbers that I doubt I can get them back.
Bump... Please help guys... I tried google and search but no answers...
Hi there,
Having the exact same problem.
All the more strange, since I put my card in another X1 and there everything works fine.
I think this is a bug in the SIM manager version.
Did not find any solution, but I came up with this workaround:
I downloaded SIm Manager v1.4, copied the cab file to the X1 and installeded it. Your X1 SIM Manager is then replaced.
Start the SIm Manager and you will find it opens without the error.
Choose copy from SIM to phone and you can actually see your contacts.
I then copied all my contacts to the phone and I have now full acces.
In fact, it is more convenient, since managing the contacts in the phones memory gives you more possibilities, adding exttra info, using longer names, etc.
Hope this helps.

speaking of sim manager, does anyone know why it wont let me delete my contact on the sim card?
When I try pulling up peoples names when typing messages etc, I will always get two of each, because they are also stored on the sim card with "name /m, or/w" or whatever.
I try to do select all...delete, but no such luck

Memory Full?

I get an error saying:
The memory is full. Please delete some messages.
What does it mean?
And the error keeps popping up
I read somewhere it was because the sim sms box was full. I mean with 1gb rom and 16gb sd card why does it not store this information on the rom or sdcard?

The error can come from having Pics, Videos, Email, Ringtones all saved to the phone instead of the SD card. I would go through what is in your Documents folder and move everything to your SD card. It can also come from having programs installed to the phone memory.
Go to SMS. Delete any messages from T-Mobile or whatever your system provider is.
Then All Messages in the lower left
Menu on the right
Scroll down to Tools
Choose Empty Deleted Items
I had this problem too. Apparently by default it only moves deleted SMS to a "trash" until you do this.
But my memory is not full. I guess if have to delete some messages I will.
I had this same issue with one of my users, turned out to be the sim card. It was an older sim and i guess they do not have the same amount of memory as the newer ones. Get yourself a new sim and you will be GTG.
Messages stored on sim
GO to you messages and delete the messages with the icon of a sim card next to them. I just had this issue with my HD2 and now its solved.

I figured this out a little while ago, but it is still dumb that we get such an error.

Well it's referring to the memory on your SIM, not on your phone. The best way to avoid this is to just make sure you have the contacts on your SIM copied to the contact list on your phone, so the messages are saved in a way that doesn't cause this issue.

SIM Card

Hi All
Have searched for similar threads with no luck, so I hope this is in the right place and not going over what others have sorted out.
My phone is at HTC Touch Diamond 2 with WM6.5. I used to be able to store 100s of messages on the phone, decided to clear them out, and now every time a message comes through it says that the SIM card is full and I need to delete messages to free up space. When I look there are none, I have checked the deleted and there are none left in there. Is there a way to have messages saved to the SD card instead of the SIM, or is there something I am missing.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] sim memory full?

The Focus seems to be storing my messages on my SIM and so i'm running out of space pretty fast. Is it supposed to do that? I figured it'd keep it on the memory card or at least on the phone.

What type of Focus do you have, what OS version etc.
How many contacts and messages do you have? Are all those on the SIM?
Messages are stored by the OS in Focus i917 on internal storage, so unless the global memory is getting very low on free space, I don't see how it's possible what you're describing.
I have the Focus I917 with Mango installed. I do have contacts on my sim but they were all imported into the phone's memory.
But I just had a thought. I was using a dumb-phone earlier and it was storing messages on my SIM. I never deleted those messages so maybe it created the threads for those messages on the SIM itself.
I Cleared the SIM now, so i'll text like crazy for a bit and then post back here if it happens again.
Cheers
