As suggested by Martin, an easy recapitulation steps to Managing your SIM:
1 – Unlock SIM if you are using a SIM lock and it is not already unlocked.
2 – Allow iPhone to finish “Searching” for carrier — at this point it doesn’t matter whether Airplane mode is on or off.
3 – “Read from SIM” will import the contacts from your SIM card into the SIManager Local List (unchanged imported contacts have a neutral color in list). Note: if you get a database error, restart the app.
4 – Replace, Delete, Import, or Modify contacts by pressing the contact you want to act on (turning it yellow) bringing up the “Edit Local Contact” menu (changed contacts will be in green, deleted contacts will be in red).
5 – “+” will add contacts bring up the “Add Local Contact” menu (new contacts will be in green).
6 – The function wheel will bring up the “List Function Menu” for Clearing, Deleting All, Resorting, Backing up and Restoring the Local List, Importing the iPhone Addressbook, and for starting and stopping the Debug Log.
7 – “Write to SIM” after all changes are made to the Local List will save it back to the SIM.
IMPORTANT : at end of modification you MUST WRITE the SIM to permanent save the contacts; all contacts in the local list become gray, then you can close the app
****************** UPDATE ******************
UPDATE 2.8
added beta support so SMS, a bit limited for now but i wait your feedback
UPDATE 2.7
seem that with last jb tool there are some iphone without /var/mobile/Documents folder so now the application create it if its not present
completely rewritten the read routine with a great improvement in the speedy -)
sent today 13/04 at the repo man, i think should be available for end of week
****************** UPDATE ******************
UPDATE 2.5:
- add compatibility with 4.3.1 (tested only with 3 iphone4 but i think on 3gs work 2.4 too)
- fix the coding routine with some charset like greek
- fix error with some sim where was read a secondary phonebook with 3 or 5 entries instead the main phonebook
****************** UPDATE ******************
UPDATE 2.3:
at last i have found a way to read the sim on the iphone 4 too
(thank to bechstein and saurik irc chat for the tips)
Its available on the bigboss/ispazio official repo.
For the people that got error ‘Database is corrupted’ , please check in is there a folder /var/mobile/Documents. If isnt there create it and kill – restart SImanager (for strange reason on some JB iPhone this directory was not automatically created)
****************** UPDATE ******************
seem that some device have the default modem setting a bit different : this cause an error message is displayed after the 1st contact is saved on the sim and procedure is stopped.
I think will be fixed this weekend
*******************************************
—————————————————————————–
hello,
seem that there are issue with some type of SIM, so i have add a log trace during the read function.
If you have issue proceed with these step:
tool / start log creation

perform the usual Read SIM function and at end tool / Send log

A send email form will be show, with log already attacched

Please, keep in mind that the log is a trace of connection from the software with your SIM, so maybe that it contain some personal information (number and contacts)! If uou not agree to send this information, for debug only ofcourse, NOT send any email
——————————————————
hello guys,
to start, i remember you that SIManager work on a ‘local copy’ of SIM data and all modification are made on this local database; to bring the change into SIM (add, change or deletion) you MUST use Write To SIM function. Another important note: the first time you use SIManager, or you exchange the SIM of iPhone, you MUST use the Read From SIM function because only using it SIManager can know how many contact can store your SIM. If you dont do it will receive the error message SIM is full! trying to add any contact!
To empty the sim:
- Read from SIM
- Tool / Empty SIM (all row become red)
- Write to SIM
New with 1.9
Search bar to search name or number
Sort the local list to name or position into SIM (the default)
The navigation bar now display SIMan (xx/yy) where xx are the number of contacts used and yy the total number of contact that your SIM can store
So now with tool menu you can

with Add (+) you can choice to pickup a contact from iPhone or enter it manually


selecting an entry from the list

Where replace change the selected entry with a contact picked from iPhone where with modify you can edit directly the entry.
All SIM that i have directly tested work fine, you you have issue with some SIM model (i have read that italian 3 sim ha not work) the only chance to solve the issue is to find a user with the problem and a good knowledge of iphone that can test for me some command with SSH (or send me a SIM)
ciao

February 23rd, 2010
I don’t hace “write to sim” activated. Some help.
February 28th, 2010
have you read the sim at least one time ?? its needed to know how many contact can be saved… youmust see the caption ‘SIM (0,250)’ where 250 (or other number) is the sim capacity; if you read (0,0) have not read the sim or the sim is unreadable
February 28th, 2010
Ciao scusa il disturbo come faccio a cancellare dei numeri ? Dopo averli selez faccio cancella ma rimangono selezionati ma non si rimuovono
ciao Alex
March 1st, 2010
ciao, spariranno definitivamente quando eseguirai un ‘ scrivi sim’; fino ad allora sono marcati come cancellati solo nella ‘cache’ locale, quando scrivi la sim verranno cancellati dalla sim e spariranno dalla lista
March 2nd, 2010
Nice programe
March 4th, 2010
Thank dude very handy app
March 12th, 2010
How do you get this program, i cannot frind it anywhere. somebody please help
March 16th, 2010
ihi, in cydia you must add the repository http://repo.beyouriphone.com
March 16th, 2010
Hey h r u? Your software SimManager is perfect.
But i found one little problem:
when i see all contacts list from the sim.
Im standing on the name of the contact,ipress delete contacts,notting happens.
Please give me a comment,maybe i do somethibg wrong.
Thanks,
March 17th, 2010
hello, all modification (change, deletion and new contact) are made on a ‘local image’ of the sim… for example for deleted contact you see only the red background but contact is still there. When you do a write to SIM, all the modification are phisically written on the SIM (and you dont see the deleted contact)
March 17th, 2010
Thanks for the program. I installed it and just tried.. then the program stoped working…can not open it… try to re install and reboot… can install it and have the icon but cannot launch .. any ideas… thanks
March 18th, 2010
its very strange… but what happen when you try to run the application ?? is the splash screen displayed ?? is there some error message ?? cna you check the permission of file /Applications/SIManager.app/SIManager ??
March 18th, 2010
Its working.
Thank you very much!!!
March 18th, 2010
Dear Admin,
thanks for reply…The icon is on the screen.. once touch it, the icon slashes but the program does not start…visit file /Applications/SIManager.app/SIManager .. permissions are:
user – read, write, execute
group – read, execute
world – read, execute
the program can not be launch…
March 19th, 2010
Thank you, very match! Greatfull application!
March 19th, 2010
I have tele2 croatian card and it copy only names to card not the numbers any comment? Thanks!
March 22nd, 2010
but is, at least, the splash screen displayed ?? can you try to manually remove the SIManager.app folder, respring and the reinstall from cydia; if package into cydia is not bugged must work. if not i try to send you a new package
March 22nd, 2010
hi, there is sim with strange behavior
i send you by email the 2.0 that im ending, with the creation of a log to try to understand which is the issue…
March 22nd, 2010
Thank you very good app. But I got 200 numbers, how do I copy them all at once?
March 23rd, 2010
do you mean a massive input from sim to contacts ?? for this job you can use the native function of iphone, the main goal of SIManager is to move from contacts to sim and maintain both aligned
March 23rd, 2010
when can you release/send ver 2.0? it may help fix the problem with 1.9.
March 27th, 2010
i have already sent to beyouriphone, but they have an issue with repo…. i think will be published in the next days
March 27th, 2010
Ciao,intanto complimenti per il lavoro,gran bel programma,sicuramente unico nel suo genere.Ho scaricato la 2.0,sperando potesse risolvere i problemi con Sim3 ma niente,a cosa è dovuto questo problema?Mi legge solo i primi 40 numeri e poi si blocca…grazie x la risposta.
March 31st, 2010
ciao, prova a controllare nel setup se hai settato fast read; in questo caso il ciclo di lettura si ferma al primo contatto vuoto… prova a metterlo off e rileggi la sim
March 31st, 2010
Thank, working with Lycamobile SIM
March 31st, 2010
Can this app delete all contacts in iPhone?
April 4th, 2010
no sorry, it can delete all contact from sim but not from phone; if you want clean iphone’s contacts just delete the db and iphone create empty one 1st time you use contacts application
April 4th, 2010
hello what source do I have to add in cydia to download SIManager!?
April 10th, 2010
hello,
you must add the repo http://repo.beyouriphone.com/
April 10th, 2010
Ciao Giovanni. Anche io sono un utente 3 ed ho il problema nella lettura della sim.
Ho impostato la lettura veloce della sim perchè altrimenti non trovava nessun contatto.
Ora me ne trova 108, nn sono tutti….come mai?
April 22nd, 2010
Ciao, mi pare strano, sei sicuro ci siano + contAtti di quelli che visualizza
Se mi mandi il log generato tramite le funzioni aggiunte nella 2.0 ci do un’occhio
Ciao
April 22nd, 2010
Hi, the Repo http://repo.beyouriphone.com/ is not working, what is wrong with it??

April 27th, 2010
The repo is not working, it said that this site is not available or does not exist, any comments???? e-mail me when is up again.

May 6th, 2010
Sorry i have a problem: the number Of My contacts is about 500 , i use the simmanager to copy fr contacts to sim and it was completely done as 250 , cause no. Of copy In My sim is just 250/250 . Then I empty the sim to continue copying fr My contacts. The problem is all the contacts were copied to the empty sim same as the ones i’ve already had at first… How could i copy the contacts which are next to the past …. For ex: first time: copy fr conts to empty sim -> number conts fr 1 to 250.
Second: using nother empty sim to copy fr iphone to sim . No Of sim : 0/250
problem: the copied contacts fr iphone to sim is same 1-250 not 250 – 500.
I wanna copy the 250-500 ??? Please help
May 8th, 2010
Amazing work…….but my sim is 64k. I am able to read 250 contacts but my sim has 500 contacts….how to read the remaining 250 contacts? Thanks
May 8th, 2010
hello,
with this version you cant… the copy to SIM routine always start from 1st contact when try to add them to the sim.. i have never think about the possibility to switch to another sim
i will try some update to manage this case
May 8th, 2010
hello,
strange… are you sure your sim can contain 500 contacts ?? what’s the navigation bar title ? it should be xxx/yyy where yyy is the sim capacity read from sim
try to generate a log (start log creation) then read the sim; after that send me the log and i can read what your sim answer when SIManager ask for sim capacity
May 8th, 2010
Yes I m sure my sim contains 500 contacts but in nokia phones I have to restart my mobile to access the other 250 contacts……at one tym it displays 250 only but when I restart it, it shows other 250…do u get me?
May 9th, 2010

thanks for feedback
May 10th, 2010
I did a read from sim, then a wipe all contacts from sim, but now it says it can’t write to the sim? what went wrong?
May 11th, 2010
Just downloaded it but when I go to run the program it opens for like 2 seconds then shoots me back to my springboard. So the app never fully lunches. Help! 3g on o2.
May 13th, 2010
hi, this not seem an app issue but more a system issue, like permission on file… try to remove app, reboot and reinstall… the app do nothing when start, but when crash after the display of splash screen generally are permission issue
May 15th, 2010
Super appli. Simple et rapide. Merci!
May 17th, 2010

how to delete all contact from simanager
May 30th, 2010
Thanks for such a great app. But I have a stupid question: how to copy contacts from Sim to my iphone? All I see is copy contacts from iphone to sim. Thanks
May 30th, 2010
hi, if you touch a row should show a menu with import option; a massive import isnt present, for it you can use the native iphone function
May 30th, 2010
hi, To empty the sim:
Read from SIM
Tool / Empty SIM (all row become red)
Write to SIM
May 30th, 2010
If I empty the sim, will all the
contact in my phonebook disappear? I’m using iPhone. I’m planning to emtpy my contact that is in my sim card without losing may contact that is now in my iPhone contact app.
June 2nd, 2010
So how to import contacts from sim to iPhone? Also before getting new phone, I saved some photo to sim, any way to recover them? Great app by the way! Grazie
June 5th, 2010
hi, you can import contacts one at time touching the contact and selecting import; otherwise for a massime import there is the native function in the iphone os; sorry but with command disponible to ‘speak’ with sim isnt possible to recover the photo
ciao
June 5th, 2010
hi,
absolutely no; the contacts in the iphone phonebook are not deleted, only the contacts on the sim will be deleted
June 5th, 2010
Dear, admin jst want to know whats the different when u see your contacts in grey color and green color
thnx
June 12th, 2010
Sir… U didn’t solve my issue….please do something sir…….thanks…
June 13th, 2010
hi, all contacts are gray when read from sim; when you delete one it became red (remember, till you write the sim the modify is only on the local image of the sim) and green are the new added contacts
when you write phisically on the sim all contact return gray
June 13th, 2010
i’m out for work all the week and now i havent time to add a function to manage this kind of sim; you can manage manually for now: you read the sim with 1st 250 contacts, go with ifile into /var/mobile/documents and copy the SIManager.sqlitedb to SIManager1.sqldb (copy not rename); then switch the sim to other 250 and (if the iphone hardware can) read the second bank of contacts and copy into SIManager2.sqlitedb
When you want to switch on the 1st bank, switch the sim (i dont know how it work) and copy SIManager1.sqlitedb intoo SIManager.sqlitedb
this should work
June 13th, 2010
Its really usefull app, thnx brilliant
June 14th, 2010
Hello dear Admin, what you mean by iphone native function?
Thnx
June 14th, 2010

June 27th, 2010
Hi admin,
Whenever I try to delete all my contacts from my simcard the app crashes. I tried everything. I went over the proces of reading the sim first then deleting everything but still no luck. Can it be my iPhone that’s causing the problem?

Hi, I have a iPhone 3gs, Fw 3.1.3, I installed the Simanager v2.1, it didn’t read my iPhone contac
I can’t copy to my sim card
please help
July 23rd, 2010
hello, whats the error message ??
July 23rd, 2010
No error message
just didnt see any contac
July 26th, 2010
Great app. Incredible that apple don’t include it with the os. Any chance of a “ring contact” button? It seems that there’s currently no way to use numbers other than to import them into the contacts database.
And finally, do you have a donations button?
Cheers
Colin
July 27th, 2010
Hello, thanks my friend
, if you access desktop version of the blog there is the icon
I will add the dial option in the next update if can be usefull
If you like to donate are welcome

August 13th, 2010
Ho un Iphone 4 con iOS 4.0.1 ma non riesco a far leggere la mia SIM Vodafone 128k, resta sempre su inizializza e non va proprio avanti. Ho utilizzato la versione 2.1 di SIManager. E così impallato non riesco neanche a mandare il file log.
August 13th, 2010
ciao,
purtroppo come ho scritto qui http://www.occasionics.com/wordpress/?p=904 qualche giorno fa su iphone 4 un sacco di cose non vanno… e tra queste simanager
purtroppo sembra che apple sto giro abbia bloccato l’accesso che permetteva di dialogare con la sim…. sto cercando vie alternative ma non so come evolvera’ la cosa…
August 13th, 2010
This soft worked with 3gs
August 14th, 2010
I have been looking for an app like this for a very long time and finally it is here! You are heaven sent!
Although I was wondering – when I select ADD then I am shown the contact list. Is there a way that I can do a multiple select from my iphone contact list? Maybe like being able to select with a checkmark or something instead of doing one-by-one? I know there is a select ALL from iphone-to-sim but what if I want to select multiple entries? I sure wouldn’t like to do this one-by-one.
Thank you so much.
August 19th, 2010
hello, if i will solve the problem with iphone 4, that not give access to the sim, i will add this feature…
August 19th, 2010
Spitzenprogramn, oder auch ” endlich eine Funktion die Apple verpennt hat.”
August 19th, 2010
Hi, this tool is not working with iPhone4 and iOS4.0.1 – while it starts though and the menu is ok, “read from SIM” brings up an “initializing… if SIM capicity….will be disabled” popup window, and the spinning wheel continues endlessly.
This also means I can not get hold of any log file, as the app can only be terminated – i gave up after 30 mins waiting.
The MicroSIM is from Vodafone, issued June 2010.
Any idea?
thx in advance
/S
August 27th, 2010
where can i find the latest version 2.1
September 5th, 2010
Does not work with iPhone 4
Please fix
Thanks
September 6th, 2010
yes i know, not work on 4g, apple has blocked the sim access and i have not found a new way so far
September 7th, 2010
Is there a way to copy all my sim contacts and import it to iPhone. Not doing it one by one but all together at one time. Thanks
September 14th, 2010
Sure, i enough to use the native function under setting/mail you will find an import from SIM
September 14th, 2010
Thank u the last iPhone I had crashed lost everthing thanks again
September 22nd, 2010
should be enough to read the info… anyway on last iphone4 the sim cant be accessed, what have you lost

September 22nd, 2010
Dear Admin
first of all thanks for ur graet job. second I have problem which is : I installed the app but as long as logo comes up it came back to main screens and shows icons. after while again one day I installed it and I saw it worked perfect. my mean I went inside app, then it didnt recignize sim and I did first read sim ,empty sim , write sim and every thing was good. some days ago I connected iphone to itune to record some songs and it sync apps too , from that day i couldnt go inside app again even 3 times I removed and reinstalled it but app doesnt work. when today i was reading comments, I supposed maybe there is still file in some where but I couldnt find anything about simanager in different directories. however I supposed maybe this info good to see.
my phone is 2G and ver 3.1.2 , it would be my appriciation if you have any adea to solve the problem. once again thank you and hope success for u.
September 25th, 2010

How do I receive all 250 contacts from my sim card I only got 72 of my contacts when I used to have more and I want to retrieve them from my old contacts but I switched sim cards but I saved em to sim manager
September 29th, 2010
hi,
in the tool menu you can find the ‘Copy Iphone to SIM’ function that try to add all your contacts to sim (if the capacity is enough)
September 30th, 2010
hi,
are you sure the your sim is full ?? go into option and set FAST READ to OFF and read again the sim.. but if SIManager say the your sim has 250 contacts this mean that the max capacity of the sim is 250 but maybe some entry are empty
September 30th, 2010
I cant read my simcard
October 12th, 2010

Ciao,
any idea on when you’ll be able to release a version that works also on iphone 4? I jaibreaked it just to be able to use simanager and now I discover that it doesn’t work…
October 22nd, 2010
Sorry but baseband doesn’t answer to at command on 4g; I’m looking for other way but not found yet
October 22nd, 2010
Thanks a lot.. It works and fantastic !!
October 26th, 2010
Thanks a lot. Fantastic utility and works well in UK.
October 26th, 2010
please please find a way to make it work on i4, at first nothing worked on i4 from cydia but little by little people found a way to bypass all obsticals maybe bb can help he was the first to be able to get his apps work right on i4 sometimes rewriting the whole app all over again but with a different approach it’s a great app so again please try for all the millions of iPhone 4 & ipads too !
any way great app that every other phone got it build in beside Apple who want to control everything and everybody so it’s up to u to try to take that control back, that’s the point of jailbracking right?
great app dont understand that only u thought about!
thank you!
looking up for more brilliant apps fom you!!!!!!!!!
October 28th, 2010
by the way for everybody u can get the app at

another thing I wanted to ask, my iPhone 4 is simfree which is factory unlock any where in the world no matter which sim I use dose that helps with the basebend?
October 28th, 2010
Dear sir,
I have a problem of how can I copy all of my contacts in my sim to my iPhone ? And how can I view all of my sim contacts in sim manager? Cuz it views only 56 contacts, I can’t see other! Thanks u!
October 28th, 2010
sorry not help, mine is factory unlock too but there isnt any answer to the AT command
October 28th, 2010
hi, set FAST READ off into option and read again; if only 56 contacts still show is because the sim contain only 56 contacts
October 28th, 2010
Hi,
I just downloaded SIManager 2.0, used ‘Read from SIM’, then ‘Empty SIM’ then ‘Read from SIM’ again, then copy iPhone to SIM’, then ‘Write to SIM’.
The first 130 contacts are fine, but once it gets up to the last 60 contacts (which I assume are the new ones on my phone) I get errors for every one of them..
Help please? : )
November 1st, 2010

November 7th, 2010
Sorry, I was using 2.1.

I think the first 130 contacts were already on my sim card..
November 7th, 2010

More kudos for you:) A+:) Working perfectly on iPhone 3gs with 3.1.3 firmware. Thanks again!
November 21st, 2010
ciao, non loso… purtroppo la baseband non risponde ai comandi… ho contattato + volte il devteam che sicuramente avrebbero le conoscenze per poter fare qualcosa ma non ho mai avuto risposte
November 21st, 2010
Insisti, pendiamo tutti dalla tua “app”…
Possiamo fare qualcosa per aiutarti ?
November 26th, 2010
Any plans for an iPhone 4 / microSIM update ?
November 27th, 2010
ciao, purtroppo il problema esula dalle mie conoscenze
, immagino si tratti di smandruppare sulla baseband; se vuoi puoi provare a chiedere aiuto all’auitore del programma Signal del devtem che usa una libreria mobilesubstrate chiamata enabledebugtty.
io ho provato + volte a contattarlo ma senza risposte
November 29th, 2010
Ciao, ho la sim con 0 contatti cancellati in anticipo tramite un altro telefono, ora ho trasferito i contatti del mio IPhone 3gs all’ applicazione, poi provo a scrivere i contatti per importarli sulla sim ma mi da errore gia dal primo numero.
Come posso fare per risolvere? Mi serve la settimana prossima perchè devo dare l’ iPhone al corriere per la sostituzione e dovró utilizzare un Nokia per un pó di giorni ma senza i contatti è un grande problema.
Grazie!!
November 30th, 2010
Poi se tento di cancellare la rubrica sim o un numero pwr volta crasha di continuo… Helppppppp
November 30th, 2010
Se si comporta così hai una versione vecchia, scarica la 2.2 dalla repi di bigboss
November 30th, 2010
Che errore ti da ?
November 30th, 2010
Quando vado su scrivi sim viene fuori per 2 secondi inizializzo ma esce una piccola schermata rettangolare con scritto errore di scrittura e sotto il primo numero che ho in rubrica, ho la versione 2.2

What’s the best way to import my contacts FROM my sim TO my iPhone?
December 4th, 2010
helló
December 6th, 2010
Nessuna soluzione quindi?
December 7th, 2010
io continuo a mandargli mail, magari prima o poi risponde… per il momento nulla, anche googlando al momento non c’e’ mondo di inviare comandi at all’iphone 4
December 7th, 2010
if you mean all sim contact togheter so use the native function from settings/mail; if you mean individually, only want you want, select a contacts from SIManager list and from menu choice import
December 7th, 2010
I forgot to read Sim before doing the “empty sim”. Now sim capacity only shows 4.
I removed the app then reinstalled it but still shows 4. What can I do to reset this (to star over)
thanks
December 8th, 2010
empty sim has nothing to do with real sim; as explained in the how to empty sim empty the ‘local image’ of sim, if you dont write after ‘empty’ nothing happen to the sim
go into option and set fast read off and read again; if only 4 contacts are show, almost sure only 4 contacts are on the sim.
if you actovate the log before read sim can see all modem answer and can check all single entries in the sim
December 8th, 2010
Here’s what I did:
Empty sim > write to sim.
Now whatever sim I put in when I use read from sim it always shows x/4 (contact/capacity)
December 9th, 2010
@Rotkt
have you fast read off in the option ??
December 11th, 2010
Yes i turned fast read off but it still cant read. It can only read only 4
Thanks
December 13th, 2010
Hi.
I am sorry , but does not work with Movistar Spain Sim and 3GS. It says “full sim”, but I am sure that the simcard is empty. Any thoughts??
Thanks.
December 13th, 2010

December 16th, 2010
I like the download, thankyou will I be able to move my
notes, calander…..etc
December 20th, 2010
Hey friend I need help. It say that “SIM full!” and the
slot for copy to sim is 0/0. ver 2.0 3G iOS 4.1.
January 2nd, 2011
And I have clicked read from sim

Hello
If say SIM 0/0 is because cannot read the sim; try to start log, read again sim and then send me the log

Hi..i was able to copy all contacts on my sim but when i tried my sim on another phone its not showing all names and some weird characters..pls help..
February 7th, 2011
i have to change my sim between 2 phones cos if my iphone’s battery is low i got to use the other one but the other phone doesn’t recognise my contacts properly..its showing all special characters..boxes..only the first letter of the names..pls help me asap..:-)
February 7th, 2011
Hey i’m having a problem
I read my contacts from sim, then pressed empty sim and all contacts turned red, then I pressed write to sim and this “error writing to sim” message comes out. And I can only delete my contacts one at a time by pressing the write to sim button. It will delete 0, then 1, then 2 every additional time I press the button. Help me pls!
February 8th, 2011
Strange because generally of sim can be read can be write too
What’s the device and sim ?
Read again the sim and check if contacts has been delete really on the sim
Try to insert a new one instead delete and write sim to check if you got error
February 8th, 2011
What’s the other phone ?? My nokia 6600 read the sim write on iPhone without issue
Try to insert a new contact from simanager with name all in uppercase, write to sim and check if can be read by other phone
February 8th, 2011
Thanks heaps. Great app. A bit confusing at first then it was fine when I read the instructions. Works well on my iPhone 3gs and my New Zealand Vodafone sim.
February 9th, 2011
This time I’m writing to thank you very much I told you that you can make it work on the iPhone 4 and I was right and you were wrong but I love you any way, beside thanking you I’m also writing to ask you where to send a donation or how because you beat the Apple in their own stupid game of control, also now that u found a way to the sim I was wondering if there is a way to use the sim memory for something else like a secret storage for privet stuff or pics, any way just an idea.
so thanks again and I’ll like to know if u made other apps because I like the way u think, ( out of the box ).
oh forgot to say works great!!!
Oded.

Excellent work thanks a lot Giovanni ! this is the best app development that was missing to iPhone 4.
I wish i would have installed simanager 2 days before cause i lost all my contacts after a bug with another app…
I have 2 questions:
1- do you know if there is a way to recover lost addressbook data with ssh like in kernel computers?
2)Version 2.3 works well on my os 4.0. I was wondering if i upgrade to version os 4.2 will it work as well ?
Thanks for your help.
February 13th, 2011
hello and thanks
1) if you mean the contacts database of phone : generally when go lost is because the db was lost and is recreated empty by phone application. You can check into /private/var/mobile/Library/AddressBook and if its not empty can try to copy on desktop and use software like sqlite database browser to try to repair
2) some users confirm that it work with 4.2.1 too
ciao
February 13th, 2011
Hi Giovanni,
Thanks for your reply, i did that operation already with sqlite db browser but there’s no data. Guess i will have to recreate all my 100 contacts manually and be more carefull when installing new apps…
Thanks anyway.
Cheers
February 13th, 2011
Su un iPhone 4 con 4.2.1 e con l’operatore spagnolo Movistar non funziona. Quando si apre un messaggio di errore nel database. database danneggiato. Qualsiasi soluzione?
Grazie
February 14th, 2011
Ciao, leggendo gli ultimi commenti mi pare di capire che ora funziona anche sulla 4.1 anche se in testa alla pagina c’è ancora scritto che non funziona su iphone 4. Quale è la situazione?
Grazie,
Ice
February 14th, 2011
Se l’errore lo da senza fare nulla forse e’ corrotto il db; prova a cancellare il file /var/root/documents/SIManager.sqlitedb e rieseguire l’applicazione,
Se te lo da ancora : ricancella il file, elimina l’app e reinstalla da cydia
Ciao
February 14th, 2011
Il File SIManager.sqlitedb non ce l’ho in var/root/ documents/. L’unico file con quel nome ho nella cartella SIManager.app non mi permette di eliminarlo. Il / root/var/documents/ non ho.
February 14th, 2011
scusa ho sbagliato, /var/mobile/documents
February 14th, 2011
Che casino. Non ho i documents in cartella var / mobile. In questo percorso ho solo aplications, library e media. Grazie per l’aiuto.
February 14th, 2011
Grazie, ora se funziona. Dopo aver letto i contatti della SIM e copiare su sim mi ha dato nuovamente l’errore, ma riavviare il database del programma e ora funziona. Ciò che la cartella documents è strano perché ho la jail con greenpoison. La ringrazio molto per l’aiuto.
February 14th, 2011
Ciao,
perfetto, funziona su iphone 4 IOS 4.1 jb…
Giusto per capire la logica di funzionamento: il mio obiettivo è aggiornare la SIM con tutti i contatti nuovi che ho aggiunto nel tempo dopo aver copiato su iphone i vecchi contatti che già avevo sulla SIM (operazione fatta subito dopo l’attivazione dell’iphone). Come faccio?
Come prima cosa, come suggerisci, ho letto la SIM, ma così facendo vedo solo il contenuto che già avevo memorizzato nella SIM, come faccio ad aggiungervi i nuovi contatti memorizzati solo su iphone? Manco mi ricordo quali sono…
Grazie,
February 16th, 2011
ciao,
dopo aver letto la sim, tocchi il pulsante tool e poi selezioni copia iPhone in SIM; l’applicazioni ragione cosi’ : scorre tutti i contatti, per ogni contatto controlla se il nr di telefono e’ gia presente nella sim e se non c’e’ lo aggiunge. Questo fino a raggiungimento campienza massima, dopo di che di dice SIM piena. Se non ci sono problemi (ho avuto 2 segnalazioni di utenti a cui la funzione crashava per qualche dato strano nei loro contatti ma non ho ancora capito dove sta il problema) al termine vedrai nella lista un tot di righe verdi che corrispondono ai nuovi contatti.
Ricorda che questa lista non e’ la vera e propria sim ma l’immagine che ne viene creata su un db locale quando fai read sim: per apportare le modifiche alla sim fisisa devi usare write sim (funziona cosi’ in quanto l’accesso alla sim e’ piuttosto lento ed in questo modo risulta + comodo fare tutte le variazioni e poi scriverle tutte in botto)
February 16th, 2011
Ciao,
ho fatto come mi hai detto ma ho avuto dei problemi: il “copia iphone in SIM” ha funzionato perfettamente e ho visto i nuovi contatti inseriti in verde.
La scrittura però andava in errore sui nuovi numeri: ho scoperto però che andando in modifica sul numero che andava in errore (me lo segnalava) e dando semplicemente OK (quindi risalvandolo così come era) la successiva scrittura su SIM superava quel punto e si impiantava sul numero successivo. Stessa procedura su tutti i numeri e finalmente ha terminato la scrittura senza apparenti problemi.
Rileggendo però la SIM arriva fino alla posizione 250 (in realtà dovrei avere 205 contatti) e mi da l’errore “Errore nel Database – dati corrotti, chiudi l’applicazione e riprova”. Chiudo, riprovo ma ho lo stesso risultato. Temo di essermi fumato il contenuto della SIM…
Che faccio ?
Grazie,
February 16th, 2011
Ciao,
veloce aggiornamento: dopo aver reboottato il telefono ora l’app legge la SIM senza problemi, non appare corrotta e i nuovi conatti su cui si inchiodava in scrittura sono stati scritti regolarmente.
Resta il problema che, a un nuovo tentativo di scrittura fatto dopo l’inserimento su iphone di un nuovo contatto, mi va nuovamente in errore proprio sulla scrittura del nuovo numero.
La SIM è una TIM, credo che l’app abbia ancora qualche bug…
Ciao,
Ice
February 18th, 2011
the ever best application…man you are genious you save my nerves at all. god bless you and your geat work toooo!
chiaooo bello!!!!!!
February 20th, 2011
Ciao, installata su iphone 4 con 4.2.1; jail greenpoison rc5.
Sembrerebbe funzionare bene, ma non ho ancora copiato i numeri da iphone a sim perchè molti numeri sulla sim non mi interessano + e vorrei eliminarli prima.
Mi consigli di cancellare tutto sulla sim e poi copiare da iphone? Oppure cancello 1 ad 1 quelli che non voglio + sulla sim? E poi copio il resto..
Ciao e grazie per questa app utilissima!
March 22nd, 2011
ciao,
bhe se sei sicuro che i numero che hai sulla sim li hai anche su iphone fai senzaltro prima a fare empty sim, write e poi copy iphone in sim e write
se invece non ne sei sicuro e i numeri da cancellare sono pochi procedi cosi..
ciao grazie
March 22nd, 2011
ciao, fatto tutto come mi hai detto: è funzionato alla perfezione. Per prova ho ricaricato i dati della sim (dopo che l’ho formattata e riscritta) e sono gli stessi dell’iphone!
Posso tranquillamente affermare che sull’iphone 4 4.2.1 funziona perfettamente.
Unica pecca ho dovuto fargli leggere 2 volte la sim perché la prima volta mi è andato in crash il programma e si è chiuso
March 24th, 2011
ciao, strano che sia andato addirittura in crash, comunque bene cosi0 che sei riuscito a salvarti tutto
ciao ciao

how to create folder folder /var/mobile/Documents in my iphone?
March 30th, 2011
you can use iFile from iphone or winscp from windows if you have ssh on your iphone. /var/mobile the is for sure, you need to create only Documents; if you have problem to do it i can send a 2.5 version that im testing where i have add the creation of folder on that iphone without it

February 25th, 2012
I have Iphone 3gs V4.1 jailbroken. I installed SIManager 2.8. What I want is:
1. Copy all my Iphone contacts to sim and then copy them to my HTC
phone . HTC has sim manager that will copy from my sim. My sim will
take only 250 contacts and I have over 1000 contacts. Can you tell me
step by step how to do it.
2. Is there a manual to show what each color mean and functionality of
each tab items like empty sim, copy iphone to sim etc. Right now u
have to depend on forums and some youtube videos which
sometimes confusing and time consuming. Thanks. Early reply will
be appreciated on my e-mail.
