in an sms message, potential phone numbers are underlined. and tapping on it will give you the option to call these numbers. however, this option is not present for numbers located inside contacts or calendar entries.
is there a program that can do this?

Hi,
I frequently store the numbers that will have to call (in the next day or so) in the Calendar application.
When I have the reminder I view the item and copy/paste the number in order to dial it.
Is there any application that gives th option to directly dial any number stored in the Calendar?
Thanks.
I'm trying to add a custom menu entry to the pocket outlook contact list so that i can do my own thing when a user with a pager number is selected.
At the moment i have this working, if you select a contact with a pager number and then press the menu softkey you see my menu entry, if the selected contact does not have a pager number my menu item is disabled.
All good now my problem is i'd like to change the text of the left softkey that normally says "call" or 'Send text msg" to my own custom
message.
I would even like to intercept when the contact "details" item is selected.
This is all on wimo 6/6.1
thanks for any help.
When I received a sms from a unknown contact, how do I call from number shown in the sms w/o saving the contact first?
When on the Messages tab, click on "All Messages" then find the sender and highlight them. Press the Call key next to the Home key to bring up another screen to verify the number, then press "Call"
That's helpful, thanks...
On my windows mobile 6.1 phone I can just hold the number in the Call History and it will ask if I want to copy the number one of my contacts. I can't see how to do this with the HD2. Very frustrating, try anything on the main phone screen it calls them, try anything on the call history screen it calls them and I can't see a option for it on the menus for the phone app or the Call History.
I do see a setting: "Save to Contacts" - "Save new number when call ends" It is on and the number in the call history is listed as unknown but I don't see a new contact and in this case I want to add the number to an existing contact.
Help.
Thanks.
in the call history list, tap the small contact card icon at the right end, which makes all the tabs specific to that caller. you "should" (fingersa crossed) now be able to save or update.
edit yep, works.
So I had received text message that I wanted to forward. I pressed and held the text, selected "Forward" from the menu, and I get the "to" box and the body, but where are my contacts? I can't select a contact to fwd the message to, can you?
Tapping the "to" box just brings up swype, and taping the little contact icon does nothing.
Help!
update--- okay, so apparently the samsung messaging app on this phone sucks, but fwd'ing happened to be my first run in with it. When I click on messaging from the home screen, then "compose new" @ the top, I can't select from a list of contacts. Instead, I have to start typing out the name of who I want to send it to in the "to" field and find them in the drop down autofill list. Also, the name that appears at the top next to the "contact" icon only shows the first name entered.
So, it would appear this is more along the lines of an annoyance with their program than a bug. Can anyone confirm these issues? Is it maybe just that my contacts aren't synced correctly or something?
