Hi,
I'm using CRC's 13.4 WM6.1 release, and I'd like to have the numbers in the dialer formatted according to local rules (Israel).
We have three main styles of numbers here:
0xx-xxx-xxxx (10 digits starting with 0, 3-3-4)
0x-xxx-xxxx (9 digits, 2-3-4)
1-xxx-xxx-xxx (10 digits, starting with 1, 1-3-3-3)
The 1- numbers are OK, and the 10 digits numbers starting with 0 are OK, but the 9 digit ones show up as: (0xx)-xxx-xxx, and I'd like to see (0x)-xxx-xxxx.
Is there any place this can be customized, or is this just an annoyance that I'll have to live with?
Honestly no ne can answer this... cause it doesnt matters...
just read it as you know.
cheers keep it up!
i think the reason the dialer's do this is beacuse they're american and they have strange phone number codes and stuff you just have to put up with it, it doesnt make any difference to the call as all the numbers are there like que said
It's a known problem with many American ROMs on other cell phones, although many treat numbers beginning with 0 as un-parseable and just give up.
I know the formal releases (from Orange, for example) work, but perhaps they've built their own dialer.
Oh well.
I have looked through countless threads and composed searches looking for alternate methods to this text interface on the TP2, I tried the older version (non threaded), but i like threaded.
Here is a rough diagram of what i'm used to, and have been using for the last 4 years. Its from a blackberry pearl, ive gone through 3 of them, loved the phone, but knew it was time to upgrade to a newer gen of phones.
A few things I didn't add in the pic I roughly photoshopped are:
-texts are chronological upwards (soonest time at top)
-when you open a text, the last 10~20 messages (option to change this is available in BB 8110) from both parties are available.
If anyone knows how this would be possible it would be extremelyyy helpful if you could direct me in the right path.
Any comments appreciated.
Thanks
Hey all,
Apologies if this has been asked before, I've scoured the search function but couldn't find it.
A feature I really miss from iOS and Android (I've had both) is where you look up a restaurant or something on your browser and it recognises the telephone number and underlines it.. so you just tap to call.
Right now I have to copy the number (or memorise it), go to the phone function and then create a new contact, paste the number and then call.
Is there an App or something that gives that functionality in WP (I have a HTC Titan with latest updates)?
Thanks,
K

I've just downloaded and set it up, and its useful (same as Chrome to phone on Android) but not what I meant. Essentially if I'm browsing the web on my phone, I want telephone numbers (on the web page) to automatically open up the phone program. All this is on the phone, not my PC.
Cheers
How are the numbers being formatted on the web page? IE9 I think looks for specific syntax.

Like (us of a numbers) 601-555-1234 just as you would dial them. The os pickes up a set of 7,10 or 11 numbers as phone numbers and dumps them to the dialer. Its the way it should have always been (nice)
I have Samsung Focus and running 7720 and I just tap the phone number on the web page and it take me to a screen asking if I want to call or store number.

Same here... always works - is it do to the international settings? (Settings, swipe, phone, international assist)? i have mine on
Also in IE try changing from mobile to desktop version to see if it makes a difference.

is the quoted phone number showing up as a link for anyone? Its not clickAble for me on 8107 with mobile or desktop setting. Also tried international assist setting and it had no effect as suspected.
One feature I miss from previous OSes is the lack of ability to paste a phone number in the dialer. It is not always the case that we are able to successfully dial a number by tapping on it.

Does not work for me, neither do national (Swiss) or other European numbers. I usually have the opposite problem with iOS etc.. i.e. any sequence of numbers (including serial numbers) being interpreted as a telephone number
419-685-5468
419.685.5468
(419) 685-5468
(419) 685 5468
(419)6855468
419 685 5468
4196855468
Do any of these show up as clickable? If so post your OS version
None are clickable on 8107 here.

All but the last one were clickable for me (version 7720). I attached a screenshot of what I get with the first 6 numbers. Gives option to call, and edit number beforehand if necessary.

Same results for me too. HTC Titan ATT 7720.
Interesting that it is working for you guys. I tried changing my region settings all to USA and now it is working was previously set to Canada.
Weird... report that one to MS... i would think it would urk a lot of people. I live in the US.
Not clickable to me. im using the dft v3 rom on my 7 Pro. How i have managed to pick up numbers from the browser is to copy the number, create a new contact and then call to the number. Leaving the name field empty makes that contact appear frist for easy calling and deletion after the call.
So bottom line here would be to get the paste option to the dialer. That is a WAY better solution to call numbers from the browser, than have the browser identify all numbers as phone numbers.

That phone number shows up as orange text that is clickable. I have my phone set to mobile view priority.

All but the last one work for me also. Plus the web page has to be 100% loaded before they are clickable.
I Did some more testing. The only value that seems to matter is your region format setting (second from the top) inside the region+location settings. Make sure it is set to united states. Everything else can be whatever.
Anyone have the ear of someone on the windows phone tem and could pass this bug on? There's no obvious reason why the Canadian region should not have the same clickable phone links as we generally use the same formats as our friends to the south. I would chalk this up as an oversight, Canada usually gets forgotten.
Also tested Australian, and it is not working for the above numbers, but then the Aussies use a different number format iirc.

There are other dialers you can download that you can past phone numbers into. Give one of those a try.
In order to set up my script that checks the HTC server for new software (for us long forgotten Three customers) I had to do some packet monitoring to see how the conversation has changed between the phone and the server - as I last did this during the HTC Desire days.
I am gobsmacked to find the sheer amount of information that the phone sends to HTC when performing an update check - and remember this is not a SSL conversation - this is plaintext.
This is an example of what the phone is sending to HTC unecrypted:
{"id":"","checkin":{"mcc_mnc":"23420","mid":"PJ4610000","checkin_type":"Manual","build":{"product":"endeavoru","id":"h3g_uk\/endeavoru\/endeavoru:4.0.3\/IML74K\/56522.9:user\/release-keys","revision":"0","firmware_version":"1.28.771.9 CL56522 release-keys","radio":"1.1204.103.14H","carrier":"h3g_uk","bootloader":"0.94.0000","build_type":"user","changelist":"56522","serialno":"HT23WW11XXXX"},"cid":"H3G__001","connection_media":"Wifi","client_version":"A4.0(GB)"},"model_number":"HTC One X","digest":"e975e0884266a65e23c359caf7c533","last_checkin_msec":"1345851401021","imei":"3591880XXXXXXXX","locale":"en_GB"}

Note I have replaced some numbers and letters with X to protect my phone identity.
It is bad enough that the phone is passing it's serial number and IMEI number in the clear - but wait till you see what comes back:
{"time_msec":"1345852109152","stats_ok":true,"reason":"FOTACANCEL_NO_MATCH_RULE_FOR_CID","DeviceSettings":{"settingInfo":[{"value":"3","key":"powersaver_switch_2G_call","type":"int"}]},"intent":[{"action":"android.server.checkin.FOTA_CANCEL"}]}
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Notice that as well as replying that there is no software update available - it is also telling the device to change a setting. I don't know what sort of things they can tell the phone to do - and a Google search for powersaver_switch_2G_call comes up empty - but I am sure that one of the many devs on here could have a look at the code regarding android.server.checkin and see what they can dig up. It is of course an unfounded worry - but there is nothing to stop someone setting up a fake access point and intercepting traffic to http://andchin.htc.com possibly returning other actions for the device to perform.
QUICK! To the tin foil hats!

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Hello, I'm kind a new to Galaxy Nexus, to whom I switched from Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9000). I used my SGS with 4.2.2 Xylon ROM 2.4.1, now I'm using Galaxy Nexus with Cataclysm ROM.
When I used SGS when typing on the dialer it gave my suggestions from my phonebook:
1. based on the letters coresponding on the numbers on the dial pad
2. based on the numbers of a phone number saved in the phonebook, no matter if I start from the beginning. For example if the number is 12345678, I could start typing 678 and still get the number as a suggestion from autocomplete.
Now with Galaxy Nexus the dialer suggestions are:
1. based on the letters coresponding on the numbers on the dial pad (same as above)
2. based on the numbers of a phone number saved in the phonebook, but only if I start from the beginning. For example if the number is 12345678, I must start typing 123 to get the number as a suggestion from autocomplete, I can no longer type any part of the number and still get it as a suggestion.
My question is: is this 4.3 issue, has the dailer been changed since 4.2.2, or is it a ROM issue. I do not have permission to write in Cataclysm ROM thread that is why I’m asking here.
No one has to comment something? At least share how it works for you.
I don't want to be misunderstand, I'm not complaining about the ROM. It works great for me, never had any issue at all. I just notice this one thing that is different and that I really miss. That's why I'm asking to share how it works for you. Thanks.
