How to copy from phone to sim - Huawei U8510

As title - I seem to have half my numbers on the sim card and the other half saved on the phone - the Huawei Blaze. Actually, some of them seem to be duplicates.

I cannot find any way to save all my contacts to the sim - there are instructions for doing this on the Ascend but they don't work for this one as one of the steps (i.e. copy contacts) doesn't seem to be available.

Hope someone can help.

    It appears that there is a user guide for the Blaze to download from the Huawei site, have you done this and does it say anything about saving contacts?

    Is there a reason why you want them all on the SIM? Personally I would just sync them with google and then delete or merge the duplicates from my computer.

    As far as I can see, it tells you how to copy from a sim, but not to a sim. I've also looked on the Huawei website and can't find anything there.

    Agree with post 3. Putting them all on the SIM card means no backup.
    You should be able to select which contacts to display, i.e. SIM only, phone only, or both.
