Just to make sure we all have the same knowledge here:
You are aware that the phone has at least two options where to store the contact information, right?
There is the flash-memory on the SIM card on one hand, and the memory in the phone itself, on the otherhand.
Yes.
Your phone shows them as overlay, and the application shows them seperatly. Either the app shows a "source" field with SIM/Phone, or you have to find another way to get that bit of knowledge.
A possibility, but not the case. I was working with two separate entries, for the same real person, but one was "name" and the other "name 1". Both on the phone memory, because of extra information present that means the SIM can not be used. Neither entry can be deleted, apparently both have associated events listed. So I try to combine them. But airdrop still displays two entries. I have dozens with combined entries that display in airdrop as separate entries. None can be stored on the SIM. All these entries are a fault of the motorola migration app used to migrate the phone book from my previous phone (a Samsung). A friend has told me that she has the same problem, having also done a phone migration. I need a phone book application that knows all about these nuisances and allows me to completely edit the entries till there are no duplicates and all are correct. To do it on the phone, I need to separate the entries, hand copy data from one entry to the other, then delete the other entry.
Some times the names on the SIM are only in upper case.
