actually no. General writing of the SIM phonebook will not be supported.

However support for allowing to write an ENTIRE phonebook back to the
SIM card (export) might be added. The emphasis here is clearly on fully
replacing an existing SIM phonebook.

It is the complement of the import function to potentially deal with
Chinese type approval. It is not a functionality that should be
considered for general use. The SIM phonebook is still a pointless
concept these days. Any UI designer wanting to expose this in a moden
smartphone needs to go back to the drawing board.

Regards

Marcel
