Web browsing told me that Gammu/Wammu does not yet work with the HTC Desire (see the bug report Don’t get any connection to HTC Desire via bluetooth in Wammu/Gammu). Not only does MyPhoneExplorer allow you to edit the phone book, it also provides a host of other features such as: viewing the phone’s call logs, messages, hardware status, files and applications sending messages via the PC etc. MyPhoneExplorer (Version 1.8.1), closed-source ‘donationware’ for Windows, recommended in various forums and that has been used with WINE in Linux. MOBILedit!, a closed-source commercial product for Windows.ģ. Gammu (CLI) and Wammu (GUI front-end), FOSS with versions for both Linux and Windows.Ģ.

My search turned up three applications that appeared to enable a user to edit the phone book (phone and SIM):ġ. So I set about searching for an application to do the job. That is all very well, but I don’t want to import my phone contacts into GMail and thus have them stored in ‘The Cloud’, plus I don’t see why I should be forced to do that just to make it easier for me to tidy a phone book in my phone. The advice is to synchronise the phone’s phone book with GMail on your PC, edit the contacts in GMail on the PC and then the contacts will be updated in the phone when the phone next synchronises with GMail.

So, naturally, I thought it would be possible to do something similar from a PC running Linux.Īn indirect method of editing a phone book in an Android phone is recommended in many Web forums. Back then I used a shareware application called Mobile Navigator on a laptop running Windows XP. These days I’m using the same SIM in an Android smartphone: the HTC Desire. Now, the last time I tidied up my phone book was back in 2003 when my SIM was in a Sony Ericsson T68i. I decided recently to tidy up the phone book, and looked for a way to do it from Linux. Over the years, the phone book on my SIM became cluttered with duplicate entries, inconsistently-named contacts, and so on. A mobile phone stores contacts in the phone itself and/or on the SIM.
