Hello every one,
Using different cabs and advices from this forum, I managed to get using the native internet calling feature of my device.
I'm able to make calls, but something is still bothering me with the dialling process: I have to re-enter the entire phone number that I want to call before every call I place since my sip provider (Voipbuster) requires that the number starts with (00) plus the (international area code) while all my numbers in contact are stored like (+) plus (international area code).
Can any one helps me out with an Ipdialplan.xml model, that fixes this issue?
Of course, it should works no matter the total amount of digits the contact number includes. 11, 12 etc.
Thanks in advance.

I have all my contacts showing their country code with the plus sign for their country code such as +44, +61, etc
When I am in Thailand and I want to call someone in Australia - I need to go look up his number in the contacts and the copy&paste (or memorize) into the dialer with the proper international dialing prefix 001, 009 or 007
It is a pain the arse, would there be a way where I could tell my phone to just parse the plus sign "+" as 001, 011 or 007? Thing is when I'm in Thailand the prefix is most of the time 009 but it is not the same when I am in Canada or Australia... so I can't put it in my contact card. (or perhaps I could make several entry for them for each prefix).
Is there an automated solution or any tips someone would like to share?
Hmm, the + is simply a shortcode for 00, which is the international calling prefix, so my number in the UK starts with 07966... and the international format is +447966...
I can call + numbers in my phone from, and to Germany, Ireland, France, and Spain with no problems.
Is Thailand not using the standard 00+Country Code+STD (minus leading 0)+Local Number format then?
when I am in Thailand (using DTAC), they use the + format just fine. When I want to call my friends in the USA I call +1-808-xxx-xxxx, and when I call people in Thailand I use +66x-xxx-xxxx.
The + works in Thailand (parsed as 001 not 00), but CAT (Communication Authorithy of Thailand) offers other prefix such as 009 that routes the call through VOIP which is significantly cheaper.
00 doesn't work in Thailand. It is 001. But the carrier interprets the + as 001
For example, if I want to call the US this will not work 00 1 206-555-1212. I need to be doing 001 1 206-555-1212 or alternatively +1 206 555-1212.
I just wish there would be a dialer that would allow me to tell him to change the + to whichever prefix depending on which Country I am at the time.
Ok so we got to the bottom of it. + is in fact the same as 00 but in Thailand thats normal calls, and you want voip routed calls.
Its added functionality on their network I'm afraid, the GSM standard will only use + as 00, and they interpret that as 001 for calls routed over the traditional network.
I think the only way to do it and keep your sanity would be to create a new number for each contact you would want to call using the 009 prefix, specifically to call from Thailand, and leave all the others with the +.
+ = International Exit Code.
This mean that in many places "00" is not the exit for international calls.
In US it is "011", Thailand "001", Russia "09" ect. It is shortcut and you do not have to memorize all codes. Of course + is normal exit not voip, to use voip you have to know local specific, in this case 009
Clear?

THis is correct. Different network operators - both fixed and mobile - will have different access codes for international and national access.
Using + will usually take you through to your default phone operator's most expensive IDD plan (and hence other companies have other prefixes which can also be used for IDD calls).
The O2 dial wizard (search for it on the forum, or download it from the http://www.seeo2.com/ site) has a feature which allows replacing the international prefix + with a dial code of your choice. It is possible to set up multiple codes (for different networks, calling cards etc.) through its configuration options. Once installed, from within the phone application, choose Tools -> O2 Dial Wizard. When a number is dialled, or retrieved from the phone list using the search utility that comes with the progam, or, when a number is manually entered, click the little icon of a phone handset with a magic wand. This will replace the + with the predefined prefix of your choice.

Sorry for bringing up this 2 year old topic, but since it wasn't answered I like to check if there is any news.
My provider fixes + to 001 - but I like to change + to 1686 (or whatever). How can I do that?
Anyone here using Seven on their Tilt with the new ATT Rom?
I've been using it for about 2 weeks just fine with no problems whats so ever. Now since flashing my ROM I started having issues.
The two main ones are that messages are not getting marked as read back on the server side and that composed messages are not being sent.
Anyone else here seeing this?
I am running the official ATT WM6.1 ROM.
Thanks

Might be better re-asking in the Kaiser Software forum and getting the Mods to close this one.

Thanks and sorry for the mis-post.

I am using Seven on my TyNT II now and it's working fine.
However, I don't know if you all know that when you setup an email account to SEVEN, your phone automatically sends an sms to an England number +447624802625, which will charge you an international sms. This will happen when you add one and every email account. Here is the confirmation from SEVEN:
abackholm - SEVEN's Site Admin said:
First of all, thanks for everyone supporting SEVEN in participating the beta program. Your efforts have continued to help our software reach higher quality and become more reliable. Sincerely, being a non-commercial offering that does not earn SEVEN a dime, we sometimes put you in a difficult spot: the setup is not necessarily optimized for the end user, but rather to maximize feedback and exposure SEVEN gets for various features and setup configurations.
In this case, we want to test the phone number validation using SMS.
(1) In production deployments we need user's phone number (instead of IMSI) to be able to send SMS triggers that wake up the client so that there is no need for always-on data connection - to conserve bandwidth and battery.
(2) In production deployments the SMS would be zero-rated, but that's unfortunately not an option in the beta program as operators are not participating with beta testing in their mind. In such deployments, there is no need for multiple SMS-to-HTTP gateway numbers, and thus our setup only supports using one at a time. As the beta program is global in nature, majority of users will always have to use an international number.
I apologize for inconvenience this causes. I realize that those who need to reinstall the client very frequently are especially vulnerable. However, I'd like to remind that participation in the beta program is entirely voluntary.

And luckily some solution has been found:
Hi guys, the problem is over for me as I found a trick for this. There are two ways:
1. I just install and run SEVEN with an OUT-OF-MONEY SIM so that it could not send any international sms. I don't know if you have this in your country or not but here we have 2 different accounts for one SIM, the main account and the promotion account. With the promotion account we can use most of the sms, 3g, gprs, phone services but not international sms/calls and value-added services (like buying ringtones, games etc), and the main account covers those things. So I've tried a SIM without money in the main account and everything goes great though it could not send an international sms. When I put my other SIM in, it does not request me to activate Smile
2. I've tried to install and run SEVEN without a SIM, and turn the wifi on when I add emails. SEVEN requested me to input my phone number and I did it. Then when everything is done I just insert my SIM in, and everything worked fine, no more international sms.
Cheers!!!

and
I can add that I have just disabled the phone connnection and connected via wifi when adding an account. This also works.

You can find more information from here:

Hi! Let me introduce a tiny app, available in English in the moment.
This program shows a small info window during incoming/outgoing call. It contents country, region, city (or mobile operator) and LOCAL TIME in that place (worldwide)!
See latest comments and screenshots on cyrket (I'm not allowed to insert links)
Detailed popup customization is supported
The phone base I collected and created (many errors there were fixed by hands) was only available in Russian, but today I released English base, made with help of Google Translate
I know, such translation is buggy (but still much better I expected). I hope you'll help me and other users to have a complete and accurate information about calls - just email me right from the program menu about any issues or comment here.
World time also changes (for example, Russia lost two time zones this March) and if you find any error - post here or email me
You don't need to download phone base. You may download its latest version from the app, but if you want to do it manually, unpack the zip to the sdcard's root
How accurate does it get? I don't get many international calls, but might be useful to know where a landline call from within the UK is coming from?
What happens with mobile calls from with the UK? I assume no detail at all then?
it covers both landline and mobile network all over the world, where it is possible to distinguish between numbers by area codes. just try =) there are more than 25000 records in the base

Hi. How do you set this up?
I have placed my Country Code (00351) and set GMT to +1 and when I call from my desk to my phone, it says it's a call from India ...
afaik, country code cant starts with zeros. Please, provide full number (you may hide last four digits) and right country for you I'll check and write settings here
Erm, I think techinally it either starts with two zeros, or a + but you're asking for a single number?
For example, UK is either 0044 or +44
wow. That is new for me. I know that with one leading zero start local calls. And you say two zeros replace + . hmmm. try left country code blank, that may help, I think. and if not, please, type whole number without four last digits
Not sure if this is already obvious but as there seems some uncertainty. AIUI the correct way to state an international number is to prefix it with +. To make a call, the plus sign is replaced with the two (or sometimes three or four) digit international access code which depends on the country one is placing the call from. For Europe this is 00, for the States, 011 etc.
I'm in Portugal, and my number is +35193233xxxx. I have tried leaving it blank, but by default leaves a 7... tried with 00351, with 351 and when calls are incoming still stays it's from India.
I'll wait for further clarification and if nothing happens I'll un-install it.
By the way, it doesn't let me use the +.
Thanks
okay, and what was the incoming number? what it was looking like on the call screen? country code preset replaces leading zero or eight digit. so it doesn't interfere number detection in you case I think
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
The incoming number was looking like this: 91811xxx
It's a mobile number from Vodafone.
Just got a call from Germany, and it identified the Country and city allright. Seems that it doesn't work for calls inside Portugal only...
i see eight digits and no country info in this number. if there are seven digits program says local call and do not provide any information (because there is no trusted information) in eight or more digits it tries to detect country code. it replaces leading 8 or 0 with country code from the settings - for example local russian mobile calls may look like 8916xxxyyzz - we replace 8 with country code 7 and identify it with MTS - the program even say region or city based on x or xx or xxx in the example above. but in your situation I have no idea how to detect that the call is local and country code needs to be put before the number =( I've never heard that income mobile number may be in the format you wrote - it should start with plus sign and country code or 8 or zero (Ukraine, Moldova). I'm whirled

Any chance you can convert the database into something human-readable? I'll be glad to cross reference a bunch of Southern California area codes and prefixes so that you can get some more accurate data there.
Also, a program similar to yours got hit with a cease & desist a few months back by some patent trolls because they supposedly hold a patent on this very thing. You're in Russia though so I dunno if their reach extends to you. Just thought I'd give you an FYI.

please, email me a t r a n t . s g @ g m a i l . c o m (or from the program menu) to discuss db elements, thanks in advance.
and yeah... i've read that stuff and even contacted the author...
But, my program is better now, I think =) And I will hit 10000 downloads, I hope. That will be enough, I think, for my efforts and hand-made db =))
Uninstallation
How do i uninstall de database, can't find it but i takes 3 mb of internal memory. Anyone has a suggestion!!

Just remove the DB app. There is no way to leave DB app and remove the DB, android OS restriction (can't modify signed apk on the device)
uninstallation
So when i uninstall WorldCallPlaceAndTime.apk than de database will be removed from my internal memeory?

Sure, man! Do it right now!
I live in a country where it is obligatory to dial long distance company prefix for calling other areas and countries, thus I can´t have all numbers stored in an international standard notation. Like I can´t store a UK number like +44 1273-701648, I have to store it like 00XX441273701648 (where XX is a two digit long distance company code, like 23 or 41 ). Same with in-country numbers - I can´t store them neither in international nor in regular local form, for example - I live in area code 011, so to store a phone number in area code (081) 3421-3266, I have to store it as 0XX8134213266 (where XX is a two digit long distance company code, like 23 or 41 ). At the same time, I have to store numbers in my own area without any prefix at all. So far so good, as long as I don´t leave my area or country.
If I will go to another area, like (081) - I will have to cut off all 0XX81 prefixes since I will be in roaming locally there. At the same time I will have to add 0XX11 to all numbers from my native area code. Worse - if I will go to an area from which I have no numbers stored let´s say 019, I will have to keep ALL locally stored codes, like 0XX81... BUT also add 0XX11 to all phones from my native 011 zone.
When roaming abroad it is somwhat easier - I´ll have to cut off 0XX and add country code +55 to ALL numbers. But also I´ll have add area code 11 to all phone numbers from my native 011 zone.
When I was using WM6.5, Magicall by Mobiion was able to do it for me. Is there anything similar under Android?
Did you check android settings?
There is an option for automatic prefixes, atleast on my i9000.
It might be possible to make a widget that gives quick access to enable/disable the prefixes.

Nothing like this on my X10 mini pro. At least visibly, but I´ll try to look into it. Thank you!
Thank you everyone for feedback. I was advised to try out Prefixer and it is exactly what I needed.
Is it possible to replace InCallUi application?
I have the following issue:
It does not recognize country code. Each of my contact numbers starts with country code, which is very comfortable while being abroad.
InCallUi doesn't see that number +49500600700 from contacts is the same 500600700 (which is displayed during call)
What i have tried till now:
I've checked many dialers and contact application, many of them recognize country code but none of them can replace InCallUi. So Call List looks much better than stock app, but still when someone call me i see only number.
I have two Lenovo phones S750 and A916. Both with same issue in stock ROM, but for S750 this ROM fix the issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538724
I've tried to replace phone/contacts apps in A916 with these from above ROM, but without success. I think it's becouse different Android version.
Walkaround for this is to have two numbers for each contact: default number +49500600700 second number 500600700
So being abroad i can call this contact (default number +49500600700), answer call from known contact (+49500600700), answer call from known concact in my country (500600700)
Stil i want to fix this proper way.
Do i have to build these apps from git source? Applications from mentioned ROM are much much better than from Lenovo ROM.
Please give me some hints
note: i believe this question is development related, if not please move it to proper place
