Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to change voice dialing from just offering the "mobile" number of the contact. It won't offer "home", "work", or any other number from the contact, just their "mobile" number. Thanks

everytime if i want to dial IDD, i have to recall the number from contact, then manually key the number with the prefix. this is an annoying function. any suggestions?
Is anyone facing same problem like me:
My Imagio can not display sender contact in SMS because I saved my contact with local number (09xxxx) but whenever I receive SMS, it automatically adds area code to the number (+849xxx) and can not display the sender name
I have already disable Assisted Dialing function.
Anyone know how to settle this ? Tks

Is "Mobile" the only allowed tag for SMS on the built in messaging app? Whenever I compose a new sms, I can only select a number associated with someone's mobile phone as the recipient address. Since I use google voice, I'd rather have mobile linked to the actual user's number and something like "other" or custom linked to the SMS phone number associated with google voice's SMS service (You need to mess with google voice to know what I'm talking about). If I put that number in as a second mobile number, I want to make sure that it doesn't dial that google voice text messaging number when I call a contact, but I don't want to go through all 4k of my contacts and tag a primary mobile or something.
Any google voice users figure a workaround?

Answering my own question. I guess when you are in the stock contacts application and press the profile picture button of your contact, and hit the SMS button in that little menu of items that comes up, it defaults to google voice SMS. very nice. that little graphic menu is pretty cool too.
This is good info, thank you. I've had this issue myself as I often have 3-4 mobile numbers + a gvoice number for some of my contacts.
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.
When going to the phone dialler, you can tap out the name of a person but it does not give you the option to call any of the associated numbers. Seems to only come up with one number (probably the first in the list).
This was coming up wrong for a few people I call a lot so I set their default number. I now don't know how to deselect the default number (so there is no default). I want to do this because when I add a short cut to a person on the desktop, it will give a drop down list of numbers to call if there is no default but dials the default number automatically if it does have a default number.
Seems really bizarre. I would have expected:
Being able to call any number when entering a name from the dialler (with the default number first if it has been set).
Being able to call any number from a person short cut regardless whether a default number is set or not.
Being able to remove a default number from a contact.
Any help or workarounds will be greatly appreciated.
TIA
I am on JM2 and I don't have this problem. Whenever I start typing the name of a contact, it appears, I press on it and all the number are there to choose...
That's promising. Are you able to confirm if there is a way to remove the default number selection from a contact once it has been set? Thanks.
