How to remove contacts from SIM card?

[szrpj]

I have to give away one of my SIM cards and wondering is there a way to remove contacts from it? Sincerely I’m not even sure if I have some contacts on the SIM card, but I would like to clean the SIM before giving it away.

I too would like to know how to delete some numbers from the SIM. Sailfish does not allow you to do this on the SIM but only on the mobile phone contacts if the number is not connected to the SIM

Possible solutions:

1. Put the SIM in a old-style phone (maybe borrowed) and delete the contacts

2. Use a SIM-card reader and its software to delete from the PC. There are plenty of them for sale online.

This can probably be of some inspiration:

Cannot delete contacts

I mean… you could use AT commands and interact with the SIM phonebook… # Turn on printout of replies cat /dev/smd7 & # Test that it works - should reply with OK echo -e 'AT\r' > /dev/smd7 # List phonebooks echo -e 'AT+CPBS=?\r' > /dev/smd7 # Should return something like +CPBS: ("SM","DC","MC","ME","RC","EN") # You probably want to select the SM one echo -e 'AT+CPBS="SM"\r' > /dev/smd7 # List entry range echo -e 'AT+CPBW=?\r' > /dev/smd7 # Look at first range, probably something like +CPBW: (1-2…

Natively you can’t delete them
