You can store phone numbers and their corresponding names onto either your SIM card, your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 built-in memory, or an external location (such as Google, Exchange). They are all physically separate but are used as a single entity, called Contacts.

Depending on the storage size of the particular SIM card, the maximum number of phone numbers the card can store may differ.

• Swipe up or down until you see the contact displayed.

• Tap the Search field and begin entering the entrys name. Matching entries are then displayed. This process filters through all of your current account Contact entries to only show you the matching entries.

or

• In a single motion, touch and hold the letter tab area (on the right) until on-screen letters appear, then scroll through the list. You are then taken to that section of the Contacts list. Touch the contact entry.
