This section explains how to use and manage your Contacts list.
You can save phone numbers to your phone’s memory or to your
SIM card.
Using the Contacts List
Storing a Number in the Phone’s Memory
The default storage location for saving phone numbers to
your contacts is your phone’s built-in memory. As soon as
the SIM card is inserted into the handset, the phone
synchronizes the Contacts (using the Mobile backup feature)
to the T-Mobile network. Additional, new contact information
stores directly to the phone’s memory and synchronizes with
T-Mobile’s network during predetermined, timed intervals.
For information on how to change this setting, see
“Save
Contacts To”
on page 63. Also, numbers that were stored on
your SIM card can later be copied to your phone’s memory.
Note:
When you copy a phone number from your SIM card to
your phone, the number displays twice in your Contact
list.
Note:
When storing a Contacts list entry into your SIM card,
note that only the Name, and Number are saved. To save
additional information for a particular contact, such as
notes, e-mail, etc., it is important to save that Contact
into your phone’s onboard memory.
