Is there a way to add to add 2 mobile numbers for the same contact? I don't why, but people do have more than one mobile, and I just cannot figure out why there is only one Mobile number category in the Contacts option. If anyone knows how to do this, it would be really nice to know. Thanks in advance.

Put the other number at Car field and you will be able to call and send SMS to that number using our device.
Thanks but even after entering it in the Car field I don't get the number when I type a new SMS. (I can send the SMS selecting it manually) It just suggests the number in the Mobile field... so back to square one.
you can create a new text message click contact -> navigate to the caller -> high light the car using your dpad. click menu then click sent text message to

Inesoft Address Book 1.8 or 2.0 has that feature. Just replace one of the fields (say fax,car,etc.) to mobile and you'll have two mobile numbers for a single contact..
Hey everyone.
I've been using WM since the XDA2 then moved to a dopod 838 pro and am now using the Touch Diamond. The one thing I've never been able to do and really could use is the ability to call a number entry in the notes of a calendar entry.
I've done a search on the forums but I can't locate anything regarding it.
I tend to use my calendar for all of my appointments but if I have to call someone with the phone number stored in the notes of the calendar entry, I have to physically write the number down and then flick to the dialer to make the call. And I've had to do that for years. Now that I've found you guys I have to ask...is there a way around this?
Thanks in advance for any help you can throw my way and a Big thanks to all the devs here making my Diamond the best PPC I've owned.
EDIT: I should explain what I'm asking for a little better. You know how a number comes up highlighted in a text message or notes and all you have to do is tap on the highlighted number and it launches the dialer? That's what I really need in the notes of a calendar appointment.
i also need that.
and i could swar that this worked already in earlier versions
Barring any other solutions, you could copy and paste the number into the dialer, instead of having to write it down. I doubt there are any tweaks to make it a clickable link.
Thanks...the copy and paste option is better than nothing. I'd actually never thought to use it after all these years.
Still, a clickable link in the notes would be ideal. I'm sure if I ask M$ nicely, they'll be more than happy to add it to the next version of WM.
Hello everyone
I recently bought the HTC Magic and I am very satisfied with the sync it does with the Google apps, which is really seamless.
What I would really like though is being able to call numbers directly from calendar entries. I have names of clients, followed by their numbers as calendar entries.. Does anyone know if there is any way I could do that? Is there an app maybe out there that could do that?
Can anyone point me to a developer who could maybe program that?
So far the only solution I have found is to ask Google to sent me an SMS reminder with my appointment. The SMS is clickable and the telephone numbers inside the SMS are callable as well. But I don't want to be doing that, since I am making a lot of calls everyday.
Thank you all for your time and help

Hi guys,
Just got my TD2 a few days back.
However i noticed when im dialing a number, i do not see the number that i'm dialling. just the contact picture and that's it.
The name of the contact and number are all missing from the dialer while dialing.
Anyone has any solutions to this?? Thanks in advance!
Hi guys, I've just moved over from iphone so still finding my feet with android.
For the most part android is far superior but the contact side of things is still bugging me. This is what I want to be able to do:
1. Have my call log as calls only, not texts. I know you can change this to view calls received, dialled etc, but it soons defaults back and shows everything. I just want my log to have dialled and received and nothing else? I'm sure i've read somewhere on the net that this was possible on the SGS through a hack??
2. I want to set up a favourites list of say best mate, gf, work etc and just be able to press their name and it dials there number, not opens another window that shows history, text option, dial option video call option, i.e. just direct dial. I also would like this to be the first screen that opens when I press my phone icon on the dock??
I've set my gf up on my desktop as a direct dial shortcut, but I don't want to be doing that for everyone. I've got a load of contacts but maybe only dial 10 at most on a regular basis.
are there any hacks or thrid party dialers that do this??
Cheers
Lee

I can help you with #2. Just swipe right on your favorite and you call that favorite immediately. Swipe left to immediately send a message.

hmmm, can't say i can see a way around No.1, other than using a new dialer/contacts app such as Go Contacts or Dialer One etc..
must say, i actually quite like the comprehensive log, coming from Sense and Stock roms with calls only, i like having it all in one place...
Dialer One would be my choice, but only as i used it on CM7 on my Hero for its smart dial feature... can't comment on Go Contacts
hope this helps
Dickie
I use loads off texts a day so within 10 mins of dialling someone their details are long gone
I'll check out Go Contacts and Dialer One though, thanks for the recommendations
This is a Samsung thing, regular android does not put texts with the call log. I don't think I'd like them to be combined like that.
it is the right thing to do

I like them combined. There again, there could be an option to control it.
Go Contacts is just the ticket
Thanks guys, much better now
