First of all, does you phone support PIM API. It was added in S60 2nd Edition FP2.

For guidance, see this document

Hi,

If you not read the API then go to the links provided by Rajand go through it. Its easy and one more thing first of all check in device specifications whether your handset supports it or not.

By the way you will not be able to access the contacts stored in SIM card using PIM api.

netsurvival, I am not familiar with that phone, so I cannot answer

sunil, S60 phones PIM API does not support accessing SIM contacts. On Series 40 phones this is possible.

Hi,

Hartti, Are you saying that one can access SIM card contacts using PIM API on S40 phones. I have tested on nokia 5310 XpressMusic but it didnt showed any contacts of the SIM card.

If I am not wrong you are saying about using SATSA API. I have read that but not used it yet.

Anyways thanks Hartti.

The SIM contact list is separate from the contact list on the phone memory. Have you checked the supported contact lists on the phone with listPIMlists?

Unfortunately I do not have a source code example available.

try this may be it work

import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.Vector;

import javax.microedition.pim.Contact;
import javax.microedition.pim.ContactList;
import javax.microedition.pim.PIM;

public class Pim {
static PIM pim = PIM.getInstance();
static ContactList contactList;

public static Vector getContact() {

Vector vector=new Vector();
try {
contactList = (ContactList) pim.openPIMList(PIM.CONTACT_LIST,
PIM.READ_WRITE);


Enumeration contacts = contactList.items();
while (contacts.hasMoreElements()) {
Contact c = (Contact) contacts.nextElement();
String home = c.getString(Contact.TEL,0);
String name = c.getString(Contact.FORMATTED_NAME, 0);
vector.addElement(home + "-" + name);
}



// int phoneNumbers = c.countValues(Contact.TEL);
// System.out.println("Pim.getContact()" + phoneNumbers);
// string = new String[phoneNumbers];

} catch (Exception e) {
}
return vector;
}
}
