These options and basic functions have been in the BlackBerry for years.

Good luck!

i. Mark all contacts during sending message, for deleting, for adding into a Contact Group

ii & iii. OK

iv. in the Contact List, i should see the Combine View of all contact list. I'm not asking One by One view.

v. There is a difference between Copy & Move. I need to Move the contacts i.e. Delete from phone during transferring to the SIM

vi. Maintain the shorts cuts to directly reach the functions like Message, Call recorder, File organizer, Manage connections etc. Shortcuts are available on Favorites & Recent. I want on the home screen.

vii. I found answering machine on some Samsung handsets like when you don't pick up the phone after some rings, Pre-Recorded message plays from your Handsets and Caller can record it's message. That message save on your handsets not on your Service provider server.
It is cost saving. While mobile provider charge for their services.

viii. In the Folder view, i can't find option to Delete Folder or Mark All missed calls at once. It allows to delete One by one.

i. I still don't understand what you're wanting to mark?

iv. You want to see the list of contacts with a phone number? like:

John - 123-456-7890

Bob - 234-567-8910

Sally - 345-678-9012

No, that view is not possible.

vi. Yes, press your dial key to enter your Call Log > Menu > Options > General Options > Dial from Homescreen = no

vii. Try YouMail, available in AppWorld.

viii. Just follow my directions, it works. You want to "Delete Prior" when your cursor is over a date bar in the list. You can delete ALL your call logs. You cannnot delete the folder.
