Contacts App (Lacking Features, Help) - New User Request.

Hi All,

I am a new Samsung Galaxy S user, upgraded from being solely a Nokia user.
First impressions are good, very impressed with the phone and the features, sure there is much that I have to learn.

However I (so far) do not like the contacts app, all I can find is the name and the number entries. Unlike my Nokia I could assign a different tone for each contact, display a picture and make it tell me who was calling by voice ID.
I would of thought this would of been a give-in for all the new phones.
I have checked the options with the menu button (bottom left) and no extra features to add.

Is there something I have missed, or is the standard contacts just this and I need to load a different app?

So if anyone could help with any advise I'd be most grateful.

PS. I see there's mention in this forum about upgrading to a newer OS version, will this help, and is it easy to do?

Thank you for the reply and the information.
At first I did not see the extra fields you were mentioning, then I thought that maybe it was because the contacts were on the "sim" card?
Once I made a contact on the phone, not the sim card all the mentioned fields were there, and I can put all the data I want.
One thing to remember "sim cards" only hold so much data. An easy catch me out!

Now to get on learning the other features.

A big thanks.

Regards Kevin.
