hi,
you only can use contacts, stored on your phones DB. You have to copy all contacts stored on your SIM to the DB. After doing so, you can select them all.

i've set the pics of my old p3600 but the resolutions is not good

Well thanks, all of them are stored in the phone DB. Syncronized them back from mobical.net. Somehow, some contacts can be chosen, some not. Already set up a contact i wanted to have completely new, but without success at the end. Not choseable...
Ok, think I got the bug.
If in the contact is more data then phone numbers, it cannot be added. Like Emailadress or so...
Can someone please confirm this?
Try to add a full contact with address, fax, emailadress, etc, whatever. On my device, it did not work...
solution
If you choose a contact with more than one number, a new menu should appear with all the numbers (and even e-mail addresses) listed.
In that menu, you must not click the ok button, but select one of the numbers from the list.

You could use SPB Diary. It displays a contact list on your today screen. You can hold down on a name and choose dial work/mobile/home.

...allows pics OR names however the names dont look to attractive! so try spb diary or sbsh offeres a product that runs faster then spb
sbsh @ http://www.sbsh.net/products/contactbreeze/
If you're after a less user friendly, but more customisable approach, my VJPhoneTools will do calls and sms from today screen, when used with a today launcher like claunch.

Thanks guys, you guys are a huge help!
I've searched and found nothing on this so if its already been discussed....
I found a way to save your contacts that you currently have on your phone, through your google account, to your SIM card using the Hero Rom. I haven't seen or found a way to do this with any other Android Rom. If someone knows of a way to save contacts to SIM in any of the other Roms, please post it
To save your contacts using the Hero Rom, follow these steps:
1. Tap People (contacts) icon.
2. Scroll to the Contact you want to save to your SIM Card.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Tap on your Contact to bring up Contact Information.
4. Click MENU button for option menu and tap More.
5. Here you will see "Save to SIM". Tap it.
6. You will be prompted before saving to SIM.
7. Tap "OK". If your contact name is too long it will automatically be truncated to the maximum allowable size (messages will appear for a couple of seconds stating this and that it was saved to the SIM) and you will then return to your contacts list. At this time it will NOT show that your contact was saved to your SIM, a reboot is required for it to show.
After rebooting scroll back to that contact and you will see that contact sporting a new SIM Card icon showing that your contact is indeed on your SIM Card
note: After doing this your contacts will no longer be synchronized so be sure to check the box by MENU=>Settings=>Data synchronization=>Google=>Contacts to keep your contacts sync'd with google.
I have many contacts with no phone number in my google account, it syncs all of them I could choose to see only contacts with phone number on the stok rom , how do I do that here on hero ?
I just got new HTC Iolite device (English ROM version). It work nice, but built in Sim Manager v. 6.57 doesn't allow me put more than 14 symbols in SIM contacts name... I believe I can increase this number by editing registry.
May be someone know how it can be done and can help me?
Here screenshot of Sim Manager settings for reference:

Best regards,

It´s normal, the filesystem of the SIM-card limits the entrys.
Greetings!
mirko.prinz,
Thank you for replay! I don’t think that is normal because most of my SIM contacts have cut last names and on my old Nokia phone everything was shown properly... I read on some forum that Sims Manager has this limitation because of code page version used by WM 6.1... So I asked if some body know how fix this issue.

When you save the contacts in phone memory, then no restrictions. When you save contacts in SIM, then restricted and no contact-pics and adressfields avaiable. (by all phones).
Greetings Mirko
I apologize in advance if this question has been asked before, but, I absolutely HATE how the stupid samsung calendar is the default cal when making new events! I SWEAR THEY ARE STILL STUCK IN FEATURE PHONE WORLD! ahem, sorry for the outburst. Any way, is three a way to change that?
i'd like to know too.

X2 ^^ ... one feature that I missed the most that was on my G1 is the hyperlink of URL, address & phone number.
Especially the hyperlink for address, I drive around town alot for work, and plan my destinations on Calendar the night before. Not having the hyperlink to address has been a PITA.
s0niqu3 was able to push the stock 2.1 apps on to the Vibrant. Check out his post below. I haven't tried it out myself though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731822&highlight=calendar
Yeah nothing is more frustrating than putting in the address and when you want to navigate to it, it well doesn't work.
More specifically:
Replace touch wiz calendar with google default

That bar on top pisses me off, but I would rather have a tiny annoyance than using the TouchWiz calendar.
Follow the directions though, you have to remove the TouchWiz Calendar and TouchWiz Calendar Provider FIRST with a root file explorer or ADB (which I never got working), and then uninstall the residuals from Settings>Applications. THEN push/move the two apk's in the linked thread to system/app, then reboot.
You will lose access to a few TouchWiz widgets, and the home dock app won't work.
After I update my phone via ODIN, sms app (including stock app) doesn't show the contacts name. Instead of that it shows phone number.
I have SM-G900F SGS5. I used UK version firmware.

You are making an assumption that the SMS apps should automatically scan your contact information and auto update. But you don't provide any history, context or details to even begin to guess if that is an accurate assumption. I'd assume that you'd need to manually update or import such information.
No doubt if you did a decent search, you'd discover which is the case in existing threads.
The suggestion to try clearing your cache is reasonable, try that first and see if it makes any difference.
