The cake is a lie!!!
Glad to see the O1 user numbers increasing.

Can someone help me with this issue?
I took a quick backup of my contacts from my old nokia phone to sim and contacts with multiple numbers were created like XYZ, XYZ1, XYZ2...Now I want to merge these contacts as a single contact like XYZ.
I tried the stock contacts app, and I guess there is no option for doing this..or maybe I missed. Is there any app/option to do this?

I will really appreciate some help. :)

So..am I the only one using 'whatsapp'? If not to send messages, don't you atleast have it to receive messages?
I know that it doesn't support India, Thailand and Malaysia. But thats the first thing I downloaded from the market, because those who want to send me text messages from across the world, could do it for free. Recently, when I checked their website it said they support all countries, but I wasn't too sure. And about two days back, a freind visiting Thailand sent me a message through whatsapp, because she couldnt reach me through MSN, she said, that she wasn't charged. I sent out messages from my phone, but service charges are deducted from my phone. If provider service charges are not applicable in Thailand, its should not be applicable in India too..
Can any of you send out a message to someone or to yourself and check if service charges are applicable in India?
For example my service provider is Airtel, and I get charged Rs 1 when I send a message to myself through whatsapp.

You could delete all the contacts, but before deleting export to SD card. You can then find a .vcf file in thinkfree, you can't open or view a .vcf file with thinkfree, but if you have Estrong installed you can open and edit the list. Then again, if you have to edit, you might as well edit the contact list..
Thats the best I could think of ..sorry, if it doesn't help.

ps: did you have these contacts as contact1,2,3 and so on in your old phone, because i dont see why it would change your contact list ..

It just occured to me that you could use a contact manager. Their are many such apps, both paid and free..

umm..I think you were asking about these apps. I don't know which app is the best, I use the stock one.

if you are talking about OTA update. no. to update the firmware or the rom theres 2 ways: 1. download the .kdz file from links provided in XDA forum & use LG KDZ Updater to update the firmware. chances are you'll brick your mobile (not kidding). or use LG Updater which too have an equal chance of bricking or rendering the mobile useless. 3rd & good option is install custom recovery & flash a modded rom & be happy. chance of bricking is really low if you follow all steps well & read what you should avoid.

V10C but avoid at all cost. it makes mobile slow & brings lot of extra problems. its more like a alpha version from the amount of problems reported. no improvement at all.

Hi Sam,.

I was under the impression that the latest firmware version was V10E . Its another matter that I have not been able to update the firmware using Lg updater till now - the phone just goes into "emergency mode".

Thanks for your input.

Like I said I had to take a backup of my contacts from old phone, so in a hurry I copied them all to the SIM before sending it for repairs and that resulted in multiple contacts.

Will try to find an app.
