Also been curious about this setting.....

Hi all,
I have recently got an android htc desire, I have played around with putting direct dial contact and direct messaging contact on my phone however it comes up with the same contact picture and no way of distinguishing between which is a text message and which is going to dial the number?
Can anyone point me in the right direction to an app that might solve this issue?
Many Thanks
James
AnyCut or BetterCut, perhaps.
My brother in law is having all kinds of issues with his intercept. Here are the 2 most annoying for him and I don't have an answer but I am hoping somebody else does. The froyo 2.2 brought bluetooth voice dialing to android. It works fine on my evo but he cannot get it to work on the intercept. Does anybody else have this working? I read on another forum that you need to go to the settings and go down to search options and enable it there. There is no google search in his settings. Also there is no option for speed dial. Any help there?
One last thing. After the froyo update did anybody else lose the ability to link contacts with facebook? Before the update you had to create a contact on the phone and then you could link that with your gmail contact and the facebook contact. Now there is no option to create one on the phone.

I am not sure about most of your concerns, but I can perhaps recommend something for your speed dialing issue.
In the Android Market, there is an app called Speed Dial Old School by Maplekey Company. It will allow you to set up Speed Dialing your way, setting number choices from 2-99 and by dialing the select number, it will automatically dial that contact.
Hello all,
I have an issue with this model where I am not able to change the voicemail number in the settings. When I go to Call -> Settings -> Supplementary service -> Inbox -> Voicemail, it automatically dials *88 instead of 123 that T-Mobile uses. Does anybody have the same issue or know of a way to fix it so I can edit it? When I dial 123, it definitely goes to my voicemail but I am unable to use the T-mobile visual voicemail or even get notifications when somebody leaves me a voicemail. I enjoy the phone a lot but this issue is definitely a deal breaker if I am unable to get this working. Please help and thank you!
Standard Android supports internet calling; Call > Setting > Internet Calls
Samsung sometimes disable it in some regions via CSC feature.
/csc/features.xml : <CscFeature_Contact_EnableIPCall>true</CscFeature_Contact_EnableIPCall>
Enables SIP calls, but it doesn't seem to be working on my Note 4.
Do any of you have internet calling enabled? If yes, can you post your /csc/features.xml file?
Thanks.
anyone got a solution for this?

I can't download it from play ... i suspect it doesn't work on lollipop and the developer made the choice to block it for lollipop devices ...
i'll search the apk and try it ...
but i guess the apk is playing with the settings too, maybe someone could give a hint on what and where to change in the settings
thanx for the answer!
wifi sucks too since lollipop ...
Hi guys
internet call works fine on Note 4
if you create a contact with a SIP profile (like [email protected] - may be done online and synchronized) and try to call it then you receive an error and the setting to add any SIP accounts open. register and call works fine.
after my test i removed all SIP accounts in order to force the error again and enter the menu.
I guess if i don't remove all those accounts the the menu is vanished forever.
I wasn't able to activate the setting for allow to receive calls.
So...
It works but the menu-entries are disabled. Shame on you Samsung!
My hope One of you freaksters and androidteers can do something however to enable those two entries in the call settings menu.
live long and prosper
Ben
PS
You can remove the SIP accounts as long as you can open the setting in the "history" but better kill after your experiments
any news on this one ?

How do you manage to remove your SIP account ?
I manage to have SIP enabled with CSipSimple : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.csipsimple
But the calls to mobiles don't work.
EDIT : Damned ! That was tough !
I managed to launch the SIP settings window with adb.
This is the command
Code:
adb shell am start -n "com.android.phone/com.android.services.telephony.sip.SipSettings"
And you're done !
The settings window for adding an account is here. You can now delete/add acounts
You can install Quick Shortcuts Maker too. Look for "sip" in the normal search. There's only one answer.
But better, search for "account" and create a shortcut to Phone Account Settings. You can now choose to receive the calls, define which account must be used for calls, create/delete/modify accounts.
If you install Nova Launcher you can access loads of hidden functions, including Phone Account Settings. To do this you add a Nova widget called Activities, scroll down to Phone (third instance with 96 sub-entries), and from the list of sub-entries select Phone Account Settings. Then use the shortcut it creates to access SIP account settings, and voila.
Hi Guys,
I got a new G4 yesterday, one thing I'm struggling with is hiding my caller ID.
I tried one solution for moto g3 (giffgaff forum - can't post links on a new account) but there is no "calls" icon under Settings... or anything similar...
I also can't find "additional settings" or "caller ID" on my new phone.
Anyone knows how to do it?
open up the dialer to the call log, click the 3 dots on top, settings, call settings, additional settings, caller id, hide number
If anyone has a dual sim G4, in addition to the response by Rempala: after 'settings' you need to select 'calling accounts' then choose the sim for which you wish to make a change, then 'additional settings'. At least, that's what worked for me. But thanks to Rempala - without your guidance, I would have been totally lost.

Hello, thanks to Rempala and ax201, now i know about it too , but some operators do not allow you to change that configuration, "use default operator settings" is usually to show ID.
Caller ID
