Your mobile phone's SIM card can store numbers and associated names just like a fancy landline phone's speed dial. The SIM card can support speed dialing for up to 250 numbers.
To start using this tips on a Series 60 phone, visit the SIM directory application usually found in the Tools >SIM directory menu. To add a number to the speed-dial list, select Options >New SIM contact, enter a name and number, and select the Done soft key.
To speed-dial numbers from your SIM card at any time, simply type in the location of the number (i.e., where it appears on the SIM's phone number list) and press the # key. For instance, to dial position 39, just dial 39# from the idle screen. Press the green Call button, and you're dialing!
If you tend to rotate among a few handsets frequently, you'll probably find this hack quite useful. Just remember that each SIM position can hold only one number, so plan ahead for that.
When the caller ID display of the phone matches an incoming number to a name, it first searches the SIM directory and then the phone's Contacts list. So, if a phone number is associated with "Big Uncle Bob" on the SIM card and "Bob Robertson" in the Contacts list, your caller ID would show "Big Uncle Bob" as the incoming call.
You can set up SIM dialing on Series 40 phones in a similar manner. Usually you'll find the capability as an option when you click the Details soft key while browsing your contacts.
