Need to edit the number before I dial on O2 mini

Hi all,
I need to travel around for business trips and I will need to add IDD code and area code in front of the phone number before I dial when I travel. I found that it is very inconvenient to use O2 mini, as I cannot edit the number before I dial. Anyone knows if I can change the setting and could amend the phone on the dialer? Or I will be grateful if there is a dialer programme to replace the default one on O2 mini. Thanks

Hi.
Sorry I dont know of any proggi that will do this for you, but if i where you I would just start writing in those +XX numbers in front of every number in your contacts, and make it a habbit to do so every time you create a new contact!
Maybee some else knows of a proggi to do this for you

Thanks for your input. I am very delighted to found Bong's Workship Prefix Dial which could solve my problem well and it is free. :wink:

WM6GSMUPDATE Bug

Hello, I am have upgraded my imate SP5m device to WM6.
I have also upgrade the radio to WM6GSMUPDATE.zip.
My country is Costa Rica (code +506).
I think there is a bug in the GSM radio or WM6.
All my contacts have the +506 prefix in their number, when somebody with number +506XXXXXXX call me the phone detects the phone number as XXXXXXX and then the contact information cannot be found.
Is there something that I can tweak to fix this?
I didn't have this problem on WM5.
Regards,
Oscar

Try to see your regional settings

Another one from CR
Ocalvo, I'm in Costa Rica too, I sell and distribute HTC in CR. I have several customers that have the exact same problem, some of them have the +506 so when they are out of the country they can use international roaming or a sim from another carrier. People in other countries are also suffering from this, but if they never travel internationally, probably they won't even notice.
I haven't been able to fix the problem for months, been posting on every forum I can find, still no results.
Here is what I can contribute, the problem never happens on WM5, but it is not always present on WM6. We have a couple of models that have WM6 and dont have this problem, like the P3600 and the S630.
Our best selling phone has this problem and we haven't been able to solve it. All SMS come with the +506 attached to the beginning so it does not ID any messages, same happens with calls.
I have even flashed a P4350 that worked fine with WM5 and does not work with WM6, but I have an HTC S630 with WM6 that works perfectly. Barajeme eso!!!!
Well, I will continue to research this problem...
Regards,
Beeche

SOLVED
Ocalvo,
Modify the registry like this:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\CallIDMatch and
hklm\security\phone\PBLookupMinPhoneNumberLength
change the value from 8 to 7 for Costa Rica
See, we have seven numbers to match before the International dailing code.
That will solve the problem, if you have any questions call me at the # that you have in your PM.
Regards,
Beeche

Thanks Beeche

Thanks Beeche,
It worked for me.
I didn't know there was an HTC distributor in CR, way cool!!!!

Do you have a store?
Do you have a store?

ROM with a dailer that allows me to edit the number

Dear members,
I have a kaiser with dutty's WM6.1 which I totally love, however, I am looking for a rom that allows me to edit a dialed number. Say I dial 0815361 , I am looking for a rom that would allow me to simply backspace the 0 and add 016 to dial 016815361.
Simple but driving me nuts. I am visiting a country that requires me to add a prefix to international calls. I just wanna be able to do this without editing every record in my phone book

I don't know if this would be a function of the ROM or the dialer installed, but certainly this would be a good feature, a rather obvious feature, since most cellphones have this capability.

I have never seen any dialer that let you edit numbers in the middle of a string, on any phone. Have you? I'd be interested to know.

Wow this is awesome - I've always wanted something like this!
Does it just use the web lookup (whitepages for the US), or does it somehow access the same information that a hardware landline caller ID uses?

Its actually been out a while but i have only spread the word to the diamond application thread before...
Anyway, to answere your question, it uses web lookup... the site that is used for US is whitepages.com
Hope you like it

Awesome! I love you!

how fast does it work?? For some reason my ppc's have always been slow when calls come in, ie the phone lighting up way before the ring even comes through, an anoying delay.

Very good idea
Thanks you very much

Hi! It takes different time depending on how fast the services servers are, but it normally takes about 2-3 seconds i think!

WOW, excelent program, here is the info for my country...
Portugal (00351):

http://www.tmn.pt 96 1696000

Landline (some examples):

Hi! Im sorry for my confusing descriptioin! When i say i need a service provider i mean a reverse phone service provider, not a mobile phone service provider. That is, i need something similar to the whitepages!

Thats the beauty of it... There is no need for change of application... It is dynamic
Just go to settings page and there you will find your countrycode and provider

First of all, thanks for a most wonderful idea and application.
Please add Israe:
http://www.b144.co.il/Default.aspx - this searches phone numbers given you have their details
http://441il.com/ - this searches details given you have their phone number
Landline:
02xxxxxxx
03xxxxxxx
04xxxxxxx
08xxxxxxx
09xxxxxxx
Mobile:
050xxxxxxx
Thank you

Does the app use data transmission? or is it some other method?

anyone tested this on a Kaiser?

UK Reverse phone number lookup service

Will this support the Philippines in the near future?

[APP] TrueCaller - Caller ID

Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that TrueCaller is now working on the HD2 as well. It is a free application in most countries, although it costs a one time fee of 6.99$ in the US, Canada, Sweden and Denmark.
TrueCaller lets you know who is calling when you recieve calls from numbers not in your phonebook.
In addition you can tweet your calls and now also update your whole phonebook with missing address information.
Please let us know if there are ways you think we could imrpove the application or read more about it on www.truecaller.com!

Shame it can not be supported in the UK - due to UK Laws on reverse call lookup.

Really? Amazing. I would like to know any reason why they forbid this. Someone has the right to call you, the right to disturb you, but you have no right to know who, based on his number???

nice idea
but unfornately I can't choose a country. seems to be combobox isn't resized or because of German ROM it searches in wrong Directory?
Btw: which key do you scan in Registry to identify Roaming?
keep up your great work!

Hi,
I live in portugal and installed this app, but the Country list is empty...
Is there any reason why it won't work?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Hello!
Can you please post a printscreen of your problem? I can reproduce it.. :/
Using c# i can determine the roaming status by calling the bool SystemState.PhoneRoaming
Thank you for the support!

Im sorry for not being clear, this application requires 3g or wifi or activesync connectivity... Are you sure you have one of these?
Best regards

Yeah, it's really strange... maybe we can add business listings in the application later if that would be interesting?

Installs and runs fine here, netherlands but on WWE rom. But unfortunately it doesn't seem to look up the few numbers I've tried. Perhaps also a law issue here...

Finally I got it working, I connected to 3G and it worked.
Although for Portugal I'm only getting descriptions for restaurant numbers. Probably personal numbers are not allowed.

Looks nice but why does it cost 6.99$ in Sweden and a few other countries when it's free everywhere else?

Probably because they are the only countries where their database of numbers is really great...

Oh - I've forgot - in C# you don't need a Mask - because I wasn't sure if Roaming is always detected. All ok!
Also for the settings! Now it works - also for choosing the country it's necessary to activate Data-Connection. Perhaps you should note this in Post #1
Now it works! - could I tell you some little issues?
The special signs - e.g. ü ö ä in Germany are to see as HTML-Code like &uuml, &ouml ... (otherwise GoogleMaps can't find the most of the locations)
And 3 Translations (otherwise really good translated! ) :
In the settings not "Autostartanfrage" - better "automatischer Start"
And in the search mask one Button still shows "Update contacts" instead of "Aktualisiere Kontakte"
and in Menu not "Ausgang" - better "Beenden"
But hey man - great job! Thank you!

Hey guys!
New version 1.21 out now that fixes a few bugs with the update phonebook feature as well as some stability issues.
Hope you like it!

Is this tool now working with release 1.21?
cheers,

Love the app, but is the info supposed to "flicker" ? Seems like there is an "ON TOP" war going on
