Hi,
Does anyone have any idea on how to change the dialed out numbers without modifying Contact entries? Reason for this is that I have listed all my contacts with a +countrycode,areacode,telnumber for the purpose of me being able to sms out even when overseas. However there are times that calling the same number when roaming overseas would need me to change the + sign to *123countrycode,areacode,telnumber. What's happening now is that I need to manually type in the new set of codes plus the tel numbers before I can dial out. Using the autosearch function of the Phone would not allow me to change the number shown.
Mon
Anyone who has idea on how to handle this? tried to search web but no one seem to have this problem. Any idea?

Guys i am an ex-sx56 user moved off to treo (600 and then 650) and am back to the wizard... I had a phone dialer tool "TAKEPHONE" in the palm world that I used to use and was very handy for phone dialing.
I had a rue setup if there is any number starting with +44 it used to use one calling card and dial the 1800# and with for me to click another button then dial the Pin and the automatically dial the number. That way I never had to change my contacts so that when i am here in the US i use the calling card and when in am there un UK i disable calling card and all the numbers are workable and no updates needed...
I am missing this utility as I travel a lot and dial international a lot… I have looked and have not found any decent tool to do the same.
I looked at the long distance dialer but did not work well with WM5.
I am willing to write some tool if I can get some tapi API in MS.net I have written a utility to make the call now I need to get it to check the state of the line and dial extra digits which I cant figure out
In WM5 I managed to partially solve the problem where I create a new contact with 1800XXXXXXXppYYYY where x is the calling card # and Y is the pin after doing this my calling card service is looking for the actual # it also allows me to fins a number but when I click it it dials another call instead of keying in the digits on the first call….
Not sure if I am expressing this clear but I need help.
I will pay for this kind of app.
I am using long distance dialer , it works ok on my HTC wizard
but I would like to have the one you talking about
I'm looking for the ability to contact certain people using prefxes such as international access numbers, pin numbers, suffex dialing for extensions, etc without having to edit each contact manually (i.e. entering commas for hard pauses and what not). If you manually edit contacts for automatic dialing sequences they lose their original formating and so you run into problems with caller ID and sms functionality. For example if you have an x number of contacts whose numbers begin with the same international access number it will get confused and think all the contact entries are the same.
A program like this could also support other dialing prefixes such as *67 for anonymous calling, (11) + 10-digit phone number for direct voicemail calling. It can also be used to setup automatic dialing sequences for those who need to access voice mails on other numbers, so no and so forth.
Up until now I have only been able to find one program that supports this for WM2003 (MyPrefixDial), but I don't think it works for WM5. There's only one prefix dialer called long distance dialer for WM5 but it's too basic of a program.
Anyone have plans or know of plans the development of a more complete program? I currently find that there are more applications for the Palm OS interface, which I find rather strange...any other ideas on the subject?
So Ive been using my HTC Ozone (6.5 Standard, 3VO rom) for a while in israel, and the way the cellular network works is as follows:
country code is +972
the number that shows up on an incoming call is 052-555-5555.
The number that shows up on an incoming text is +972-52-555-5555.
The number that shows up on an outgoing call when dialing without the country code (aka 052-555-5555) is +972-052-555-5555.
All of these differences mean that if I have a number saved in the contact manager (in only one of the above forms), it isnt displayed 2/3rds of the time. If i send a text to ME(052-555-5555), the reply comes back from an unsaved number, in a new thread is +972-52-555-5555.
Is there a way for me to just save the base number (052-555-5555), and have the phone's contact manager realize that its the same number is the +92 equivalent? My current workround is saving all the forms of a number to a contact, but 1. its tedium to go through all my contacts and do this, and 2. you can only save so many numbers to a contact, which means im screwed if the contact has two different numbers.
I see all these fields in the "current country" setting, but I have no idea what they mean, or if that is even the solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hey , i got the same problem on my Omnia 2 with windows mobile version 6.5
The local incoming call won't show the country code, and sms does the opposite way.
check through all my phone setting, can not find any related option for this.
Thanks for anyone can provide a resolution.
i just resolved my problem. hope this way can help you as well.
get a regedit software on your windows mobile phone.
go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Phone
under it, you should able to see a key name "CallIdMatch", change the value to maybe 8 or 9, which means it will match the last 8 or 9 numbers for each incoming call or sms. (use decimal) after the changing, reboot your phone.
Wow, it worked!!
Thanks a lot man!
thanks for the tip jason_ma!
i was also wondering about it.
Anyone know how to edit CalIidMatch an an HTC hero
Is this possible without actually changing my area code, I just moved to the other coast and get annoyed by having to dial an area code every time I dial a local number, but for the past few years I've had the same phone number and don't want to change and lose all my old contacts... And yes I'm aware I can change it in the text menu but I'm talking about phone calls only, not texts.. Thanks..
I just add area codes to the phone numbers of all my contacts if you call local it don't matter if you add area code so that works for me
Having searched this and various other forums I'll see if anyone here can help on this item. I've been using WM devices and XDA for many years and have now had to switch to a Droid 2 Global on Verizon due to work rather than choice. For over ten years I have entered my outlook contacts in the format +XX (YYY) ZZZ-ZZZZ where obviously, XX=country code.
When I dial by contact on the droid it fails and tells me the number is disconnected etc.
If I manually enter the number using this format with the "+" sign into the dialer then it switched the "+" to "011" and dials successfully.
If I create the contact on my phone and enter the "+" sign in the phone number it seems to automatically create a second number entry as "011" as well so it then dials successfully.
The odd part is several colleagues seem to be able to use their existing outlook contacts in the same format successfully.
I have tried switching on and off the assisted dialing and it doe snot seem to make any difference, calls still fail to go through.
I am using a D2G with a stock (but rooted) ROM
System 2.4.330.A956.Verizon.en.US
Android 2.2
Baseband N_01.48.05R
Apologies if I have missed something obvious, I know my way around WM but this is all new. Thanks in advance for any help.
I had a couple of issues with telephone number formats, installing the "More Locale 2" app (available on the market) seemed to fix them.
Mine was more a presentation issue though, I'm not sure if it will solve your dialer problem but it's worth a try.
