People, here's the thing.
Here in Brazil, when a call is received, the caller number is sent to the phone in this format:
0 + area code (two digits) + caller number (eight digits)
For example, 0219236XXXX
My Galaxy Nexus gets this number and shows it in this format:
(21)9236-XXXX
This is one of the brazilian ways to present a phone number here, "(" + area code with two digits+ ")" + four digits + "-" + four digits. There are others, for example without the parenthesis (like this: 21 9236-XXXX).
The problem is that when I enter the call log to return a call, if I return it from an incoming call register, it works fine. But if I return it from an outgoing call register, the call is not complete because the number is not recognized.
It's hard to explain, I'll try to illustrate with steps.
- I receive a call from 0219236XXXX
- My Galaxy Nexus call log shows:
(21)9236-XXXX "call received" (a small blue arrow pointing down left)
- I enter call log and press that "call received" register
- The phone dials (21)9236-XXXX and the call is completed
- My Galaxy Nexus call log now shows:
(21)9236-XXXX "call made" (a green blue arrow pointing up right)
(21)9236-XXXX "call received" (a small blue arrow pointing down left)
- I enter call log and press the "call made" register
- The phone dials (21)9236-XXXX and the number is not recognized.
- But if I press the "call received" register, the number is recognized and the call is completed.
See what I mean? I guess that in an incoming call, the first '0' (zero) is there, but it's hidden. So when I dial from the incoming call register, although the number is shown (21)9236-XXXX, the dialed number is 0219236XXXX, which is a correct number to the network.
But when I dial from the outgoing call register, the number is shown (21)9236-XXXX and the dialed number is 219236XXXX. The '0' (zero) is discarded. Because of that missing '0' (zero), the number is not recognized by the network.
I don't know if this is a problem only with brazilian phone number format, or if it happens in other countries also.
Is there a way to fix this? Because of it, most of the times I have to edit the number before calling it.
Bump!
Anyone?
i don't know about in brazil,
here in uk, it works with no problem. it even tell you where the area of the number is from.
for example i just received a unknown insurrance call from
01515246303
it show in the call log
0151 524 6303
Liverpool
and i can dial back with no problem.

yes, it dials with the 0 with it.
I have the same problem, nexus in Vivo carrier, everytime i try to dial last call it wont recognize the number, then i have to edit the number, its really annoying.
Yes i have a similar problem
Here is what i have noticed
Im in oman, country code +968, when im in my home country and dial a call to uae, +971 567 897070, the dialer shows 056 7897070.
What i think happens is as follows,
Since the location setting if english uk, the phone formats the numbers as per uk formatting. They use 10 digits as their numbers.
The ics reads and displays numbers in UK first every where. Im ginger bread, that formatting used to happen only while entering the phone number in the dialer, but it would read and display more than 10 digits while on the same UK setting.
My advice for the brazilian numbers, is change ur location to uk from usa if you are using english.
I hope they fix this bug

Number formatting problem
in iran my galaxy nexus have problem with number formatting too.
sometimes seprate the number (this format: +98 123 456 7890 or 0123 456 7890)*
but sometimes auto format not work (this format: +981234567890 or 01234567890)
or only seprate -with country code- numbers.
important, when i saved a number with one of formats and then my phone automatically changed his formatting to other format then my numbers shows like unsaved numbers (without name) in log, callin and text.
text, log, dial pad and new cantact page have this problem.
Y sgn automatically change formatting?

after resetting, default format is the first one (*).

Hi beautiful people -
I dial into allot of meeting and with that, I tend to dial the number and passcodes as one number.
ie. xxxxxxxx,yyyyyy#
So when I goto my dialled history, I only see the number dialled "xxxxxxxx". The histroy does not store the pass code and the entire dialled sequence.
Is there an app that will store this entire sequence in history by default?
thanks!
------------
where:
"x" is the phone number
"y is the passcode
"," comma is the 2 second delay
"#" hash is required to complete the dial sequence.

In the contacts app there is the ability to add wait and pause in a contact number. This can be used to automatically submit PIN codes, etc, into a dialed number.
This just doesn't seem to work for me. Anything after the comma or semicolon is completely ignored when dialing. Is there a way to enable it?

Hello. I get the message, but I cannot send. The message center number: +905598008000 please help me. SMSC part of what is to be entered? Thanks. Country:Turkey avea
I've accomplished, how is that? ı have nexus 5
Dial *#*#4636#*#* then go to Phone Information you can see the “SMSC: ” field.
Tip: DON’T PRESS UPDATE, PRESS “REFRESH” TO SEE THE CURRENT SETTING!!!
For example if actual SMSC number is: +447785016005, however inputting this into the field and hitting update just produces “update error”. The issue is that this needs to be translated into PDU format (Protocol Description Unit) and you can do that here:
http://www.twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode.
For the number above, this turns out to be 0791447758100650
For some people, entering the PDU number above into your SMSC field in the testing menu and pressing “update” will have the desired effect but for me, the “update” button won’t work unless you have a “+” in front of the number which is no use at all.
The solution? Take the SIM card out and stick it in a non-android phone , go to the messageing app, settings, message centre number and enter the real number, i.e. +447785016005.
Save, exit, power off, replace SIM into Android phone, job done.

On my previous phone I had few numbers saved that call into work conference calls that would auto enter the passcode by using a comma to pause and then enter the required code for the call and then a # to get into the call.
So for example the number would be:
5555550000,996077953#
When I dial the same number using my Robin with the default phone app it connects to the conference number but it doesn't seems to recognize the comma and the numbers after it since they never get entered. Possibly the comma is recognized since it's a pause but the numbers after don't get entered.
Has anyone had success doing this? Or know of a another way to do this on the Robin?
