[INFO (HOW TO)] Option found in Hero: Contacts to SIM - G1 General

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_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"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 ?

ive just replied to your other thread but for the sake of clarity i'll post it here too.
basically you cant do any type of keyboard based searching as the interface is based around using your finger to scroll through contacts. If you swipe your finger down the letters to the right hand side of your contacts you can choose contacts alphabetically which is probably quicker than scrolling if you have a lot of contacts (I only have 70 odd so its effortless to scroll to the one i want).
You can also use the menu to sort your contacts either by first name, last name or company
EDIT: Ive just realised that if you are on the 'A' tab that shows all of your contacts (like in your screenshot) If you press the 'A' tab again it brings up a little keypad that can be used to search contacts and/or dial numbers

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.

Sim Manager: Max Leght Of Name 14 symbols

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).

EMUI Guide on Importing/Exporting of contacts

Are you changing your mobile. Are you devoid of internet connection to sync google contacts ?
Then this guide will help you in exporting contacts out of Honor mobile and Importing it in Honor mobile.
How to?
Step 1: Go to the Contacts and select the Menu option.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 2: It will display the Display preferences, Organise contacts, Import/Export and Settings. Select Import/Export option.
Step 3: Click on Import from storage and it will ask different option where to import from like Phone, Google account and other account which you have logged in.
Step 4: Click on the Import from SIM card 1 and if any contacts are present it will display and select it and click Import.
Step 5: Click on the Import from SIM card 2 and if any contacts are present it will display and select it and click Import.
Step 6: Click on the Import from another phone it will display various options like
- Supports Bluetooth
- Import via Wi-Fi Direct
- Does not support Bluetooth
We can use either of the options just by enabling the Bluetooth/Wifi Direct correspondingly and import the contacts.

Step 8: Click on the Export to SIM card 1 / 2 and it will display multiple options like from Messenger, Phone, Whatsapp, Google and other accounts.

Dialer/Contacts issue

I'm suddenly having an issue with my latest/frequent contacts not showing when long pressing dialer using "3D touch". It started after briefly adding and removing an old Google account. Now nothing shows except the "add contact" option. I've tried everything I can think of including full wipe to get it back but still nothing. Hoping someone has an idea. My OCD is killing me
