if you already have contacts in your phone book and you have follow the set up info given...its just like retrieving your voice mail you normally would press the number "1" key...lets give it a test run press the number 5 key down for a second or two and release...it should be dialing whoever is in the the #5 spot...you just place your first speed dial....try it again lets call that number 9 ...note you can always change the positions (callers) in your speed dial..just simply go to the phone book to who you want to replace (eg.you want replace Debbie #4, go to Sam... options/speed dial/ #4 this will over ride who is in that position)

hi,
you dial the number on your phone.
press the option button and scroll down to save number.
press save and the number will be on your phone book.
thanks for using fixya.

you have 2 options. you can load them directly in your "address book" by going into your address book, menu button (bb icon left of trackball), select "New Address" and enter the info.
Option 2 , would be going into your address book, select "SIM phone book" and enter the info there.
Keep in mind, when you use the SIM phone book option, you can only enter their name and phone number, and after you are done, you have to import your SIM contacts to your address book.
Any contacts saved using the SIM option, will stay on your SIM card.
Any contacts using the Address Book option, will only remain on the phone, and not on your sim card.
ho[pe this helps!

Hello, I had the same problem, but i figured out how to get the callers id/information. On the main page select Call Center>>Call History>> SIM1(or whichever you are using)>> and select either the Missed/Dialed/Received calls. Lets choose Dialed Calls for now. Select a phone number that you recognize>>select OK>>Options>>Save to Phonebook. In here you will create a new contact. Make sure you delete this old contact information from your phone book. (so you don't have doubles if already saved to your contact list). Now you can go to your main menu again and select the phone book option. Select the contact you have created and add a photo and ring tone you like. Now when you get a call you get their photo and rign tone. For sms you get only their name, but thats good enough for me.
