Anyone on this forum know/have the sim tool kit for windows phone 7?
it only can copy existing sim contact to phone but in future cannot add contact to sim anymore..
thanks everyone
I belive as part of Tango you will be able to save contacts to your sim. Also my Lumia has "SIM applications" in 'settings' but there is nothing there, so I don;t know what to make of that.

I have always wondered what the SIM toolkit application tool does. Whenever I try to run it ti says "Your SIM Card has no application installed." Uhm.. Okay.. Neither does my wife's SIM card on her XDA I.
Does this have any use at all?
Just wondering..
Some operators give SIMs which has applications installed in it.
SIM toolkit does nothitng else but shows you a menu. And you can use this menu.
In Pakistan most gsm operators have applications in their sim. Which allows you to check weather updates, news etc.
Basically what happens is, when you click on a menu the application will auto-compose and send an sms to server. And then you get a reply to that as a regular sms.
Thats all about sim toolkit, its nothing Fancy

I think it depends on the services available from your provider. I have a uk orange contract and my sim toolkit has "call orange", "information" and "group text". (I have to say I have never used these).
There have been other posts on this subject so it may be worth searching the forums for more info.
SIM Toolkit applications are additional menus, that mostly contain SMS information services, that are ordered automatically without manually typing keywords into a SMS and sending it to a service number. One could also make a phone call a certain number by choosing an item.
All German operators have SIM applications on their SIMs. So when you enter you can choose from news/weather/stock rates/ordering logos and ringtones and such stuff. When you choose an item a request-SMS will be send automatically and as result you will receive a common SMS or ringtone or logo.
In my opinion this is a relic from the pre-WAP-times. I don't see a real use in it and I have used it maybe 3 years ago for the last time.
By the way, the SIM applications are able to update themselves - sometimes the menus are updated automatically to make new SMS info services available.
On Nokia phones SIM applications appear as the last menu called "Services", but only if available.
can someone please tell me how to copy my contacts from a sim to my xda II and then from my xda II to my other sim ?
regards n thanks

when you tab and hold on a contact the menu have an option called save to sim
i would guess thats the way you get it from contacts to what ever sim is in the phone
and Sim Manager i would guess is the program you use to get contacts from your sim to your contacts
any software to do the same ?
hhmmm you mean every rom ?
not really sure what you mean by software in this context
by software i mean a software or a tool which i can install on my xda II and then use that tool or software to copy my contacts from sim to xda II and then xda II to sim.
I have WM6 installed on my Wizard along with MS Voice Command 1.6. All of my contacts on my sim card are also in the phone. But the phone contacts have home/work/cell numbers while the sim card just has the contact's cell number.
The problem is when I say "Call John Smith at Home", the SIM card contact is found first, and VC complains that it can't find a home phone. It only allows me to call the cell phone.
I can't find a setting to make VC only search phone contacts. Does such a thing exist? Is there a registry setting that could do this?
I don't want to delete my sim contacts because I often use my sim card in another device.
Any help would be appreciated!

Moving to Q&A
Hey everyone.
I was wondering if anyone found a "fix" for the problem with HTC Sense regarding Phone application? Its displaying both Sim contacts and Phone contancts. I have unchecked the Sim contact in people tab but i want them hiden in phone app as well.
I do not wish to delete the sim contants as I like to have a backup incase i switch to a non-android phone for emergencies.
Thanks
