I dont know if this will solve your problem but its worth a try, in the contacts tab click the menu button and choose Setup.
Change the default memory location to the sim or phone, whichever you want and try it again.
Just got the phone a week ago and trying to get through the frustration of getting used to it and ironing out the kinks. One of my frustrations: When i press on the Voice Recognition button and say someones name, the VR says "Duplicate names found" and gives me a choice of the same name on either the SIM card or on the phones memory. All of my contacts are both on the phones memory and the SIM card. Is there any way to have VR look for contacts ONLY on the phone? Thanks guys!

Default memory location is Phone. VR still looks at both phone and SIM for contacts.
