im having an issue with google dialer where it wont dial numbers from my speed dial or lookup (only when i enter the number manually) i think this has something to do with it adding the country code before the number. is there a way to turn this off or does anyone know of this issue. my carrier is sprint if it matters.

is there a way to show the number you are dialing if it is a contact. My display does not until i completely dial and then show the number and area code.
Thanks
if your using the HTC dialer it does. i don't know about winmo dialer tho. i'm guessing it does not, and that is what your using.
Hello,
I often use an access code to dial internationally, and once I am connected to that access number, I have to enter the number of the person I am calling.
I have an HTC Touch HD with WM6.1pro and cannot find a way to do it. If I connect to the access number, then at the prompt go to my address book and dial a second number, it assumes I want to have two separate calls and puts the access code on Hold... which is not what I want! I do not remember all my friend's numbers, so I do have to use the address book.
With my old nokia n95, once connected I could go to the menu and say I want to dial a DTMF which is the tone you hear when dialing a normal phone. This allows me to follow on with calling the number I need while connected to the call.
Is there a way of doing this on WM6?
I have a kind of work around. I edit my international friends phone numbers as a "car phone" and the numbers look like this
02081802828 p 0027115555555
the access code, then I add p to pause then their number.
The HUGE problem is that when I dial any of my international contacts, the phone displays the same person... so no matter who I call internationally, it always shows a photo of my friend Ian, and displays his name instead of the person I am actually speaking to. I think this is a bug where WM6.1 only looks at the first 11 characters of a number, but the problem is, all my intl numbers have the same first 11 numbers.
Help MUCH appreciated, thanks,
Mark.

Don't know if it will work... but you coud try (using Advanced Config) to increase the number of digits used to "match" the numbers in the contacts... for example to 18 or 19 numbers... but I cannot immagine what other "consequencies"could happen...
Let us know !

Hi Kostas
It seems that the problem is actually with spb Mobile Shell and not windows mobile.
When I dial using the windows mobile dialler, it gets the name and picture right, but when I use spb's dialler it shows the wrong person and name...
I will chase it up with them... and thanks for the good idea, unfortunately the Call ID Match does not help the problem.
Efgaristo!

when i make a call from my contacts the telephone ads a + plus sign. how i can disable it?
if i dial a number and send. the + is not added.
i have tried disabling assited dial. but i still get the +
i use the imagio only on GSM
What's the plus?
The plus "+" is used to distinguish the country code of the phone number. Most in the US don't normally think about it. This is especially true since the country code for the US is "1" and the "1" is what you used to add from your land line to make a long distance call.
Don't sweat the addition and in fact get used to it. On your mobile phone you should always include the full phone number (including area code) for all your contacts and calls. You don't have the same concept of "long distance" calls on your mobile phone. Where you are is your calling location and this obviously varies.
For your contacts, get used to seeing the addition of the +1 for US phones. When making calls you can include it or not if you are in the US and calling someone in the US. In the US you should always use 10 digit numbers when you dial.
So in the US you don't need to use "1" to prefix a number to call "long distance" but you do need to use "+1" to call a US number if you are in a different country when you make the call.
(Someone is bound to point out that Canada also uses +1. I didn't include that above but you could substitute "USA and Canada" where I used "US")
How to disable this function, can anybody say? It do not let to make call in my country to contacts, just call if typing number manualy 8700... etc.
use a registry editor and set HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\PlusCodeDialing\PlusCodeEnable to 0.
2bawaji Thanks for help.
Another problem appear: when I change registry key vaue and restart phone it restart himself after verizon logo. I fix it by hard reset, but what i do wrong?
Mat be needs some other changes in registry?
Was it set to 1 before you changed it to 0? I notice that in the post above, the key is listed as "Plu sCodeEnable" and not "PlusCodeEnable" that I originally typed. There should be no space between the u and the s.
I regularly change the above key from 1 to 0 and back when I travel. I have not had the restart happen. I am using Energy ROM which does not have Assisted Dialing. You may want to try this with Assisted Dialing turned off and see if that makes a difference. Can't think of anything else.
Just switched my VZW G5 from VZ to ATT (unlocked, non dev)
I'm noticing my synced google contacts don't show up when I get a call.
When I call them, it works, the phone app shows their name and number, but when they call me, I just see the number even though that number is in my contact list.
I have noticed when I call out, the contact number is displayed with the country code ( 1 ) and the 1 isnt there when I get a call. Could that be it?

I believe that is your problem. I had to change my numbers to 9 digit instead of 6. (area code) 123-4567 if any are not the 9 digit format they only show up as a number with no name.
All my numbers stored have area codes. Another weird issue: when i call people back from the recents tab of the phone app, i get a busy signal or an error for making an international call, when its my area code.. I look at the number dialed and its just the same number with a space between the first and second digit, altering the number.

Same issues here - Verizon S6 (G920V) on AT&T, ever find a solution?
Hi All, I have a connection with H2O wireless in USA. I have this weird problem with my S7 Edge G935FD where whenever I dial an International number, I get a message on screen that says "Number changed by sim" and then the number changes to an US number. This only happens when I dial an International number.
I tried the sim on a Note 2 where it's working fine and the number doesn't get changed. So I'm pretty sure it's something with the phone.
Can someone please help me resolve this issue because whatever International number I dial, I'm finally getting the US number in my call logs and it's impossible to know which number I dialed.

look if you have some sort of SIM management app. If not look under networks and advanced dialing options. You need to disable the automatic code. I think it's set to something and that's what would change the numbers.

I don't see any option where I could disable the automatic code. Looked everywhere in the phone. I don't have advanced dialing options either. I just factory reset my phone and still the same problem. Any help please?
I ran into the same problem and found that if the phone number is listed with a + in front of the area code, i.e. +4051112222, it will be changed by the sim.
To solve this, dial a 1 follow by the area code & number.
