[FDOM 080927] Modem jokes on SIM entries

[Dan Staley]

I also have this problem.  I'm glad I'm not the only one.  I was worried
my sim card reader broke.  (As the contacts were being imported
correctly before.

When I first boot up the phone, it connects to the network and can make
calls and suspend fine.  However, if I try to goto the contacts
application, it hangs up on "Loading Sim..." and after that I can no
longer make/receive calls or come back from suspend.

When this first started happening, I would goto the contacts and no
contacts would be loaded.  I thought this might be because of the
excessive amount of contacts I had on my sim card (250+).  So I went and
cleaned out quite a few of them.  After that, I tried again.  Now I get
the same outcome (no calls/suspend) and the "Loading Sim..." message
stays at the top, but I get a list of garbled and certainly not correct
contacts.

Because of the garbled contacts, I wonder if the qtopia dialer got
upgraded and the new version does not split the data up correctly from
the sim card?  perhaps the delimeters are wrong?

I'm using an ATnT fireball sim card and it has worked fine before this.

Anyone have any idea?
