Always show number when you make a call? CyanogenMod 11.0 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have not found where I can set so even if I have my number hidden from my phone provider
it is always shown when I make a call.
Found this poorly translated instruction but it is for a standard Samsung phone.
Enable or disable the Show Number
You can disable the display of your number so it does not appear in the recipient when you make a call . You can also make a single call with hidden number . Your number is hidden only for calls , not when you send messages .
1 Find the "Hide ID "
Touch Phone .
Press the Menu key .
Tap Call settings.
Press the Additional Settings.
Please wait a moment while the current settings are retrieved.
Press the Caller ID .

Anyone?

Can't copy number from Call History to new or old contact.

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.

Calling Voicemail too many button pushes

Folks, is it just me or is there a trick I have missed?
When I get a voicemail and I try to call my voicemail box by tapping on the message asking me to call my voicemail and I end up having to hit the screen 3 times !
I get the Incoming message stating
"Please call 321, You have N new voiceMail messages"
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER and get the menu pop up with the number and several options e.g. Forward, delete message etc
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER (AGAIN!)
Then I get another screen asking me to verify the number with three options - call, send message and save to people
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER AGAIN!!
I press on the CALL button and hold down the number "1" and it'll dial voicemail (that is if i dont see it near the top of my recent calls...in which case i'll just tap on it). So really, it involves two presses to call voicemail.
Thanks, didn't realise the 1 number key was preset to voicemail. At least that is some improvement. You would have hoped the number in the incoming message being clickable would have automatically dialled the number for you but what the heck.
Thanks again

Annoying default number for contacts issue

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.

Default dialer - direct call by tapping on contact possible?

Is there any way how to setup default dialer to start dialing contact when I tap on it?
When I tap contact it just put its number to dialer field and I have to press green button to actually call it - instead just calling it after selecting contact.
