Hi,
Does anyone know if you can specify a default phone type to dial (i.e. "home" or "mobile") when you swipe to the right on a Contacts entry? Sometimes it dials the home phone of some contacts, other times it dials the cell. Obviously if I only have one phone entry for a contact, it dials that. But I would like some control to specify "always dial the mobile," for example when I swipe to the right. Any ideas?
Thank you!

How do i get new incoming call settings
what kind of settings?
if you looking for ringtone setting for incoming calls it's....start/settings/sounds and notifications/notifications/ and then in the event tab select phone;incoming calls
if your looking for how many times it rings before voicemail... you need your msl number.
goto keypad on screen hit ##pst# then select edit and type in your mls number to unlock. hit the view tab to get to I think modem settings. somewhere in there is where you want to change your slot cycle index. default is 2. 1 is faster and 0 is the fastest.
hope this helps.
My wife's Droid Eris is stock 2.1.
She has specific contact shortcuts for calls and texts; ie Call Mere, Text Mere
I finally created contact shortcuts. When I touch my shortcut, I get another window with different icons for call, contact, gmail, etc.
Is there a way to create specific shortcuts to call someone without opening the second window?
Thanks
Anycut should do it.
Let me state my observation a different way.
My wife's Droid Eris with stock 2.1 has single click call or text function.
My KaosFroyo v35-1 has requires two clicks, 1st click brings up an expanded window with other options, requiring me to click on the small phone icon to place a call.
How can I create a shortcut to call a telephone number?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
bring up the option to add to home screen click shortcuts and scroll down and you have options for direct dial and direct message. And from there its a single click icon to call the selected contact you have choosen for that shortcut
Ok, your reply has added one more thing on my droid do list.
Add each Widget to a screen if only to see what exactly it does.
I selected the Contact Widget not the Direct Dial Widget.
Thanks.
Here is my question: I would like to set up a text message shortcut on my home screen using the "direct message" shortcut for a specific contact, BUT I would like the shortcut to open directly into voice control so I can just begin talking (as opposed to opening into the text thread, then having to tap the box to bring up the keyboard, then having to tap the voice control icon).
Also, I know about the voice control app (say "text Rob" then start speaking your message). I want to cut out the "To" part of the equation because Google Voice very often gets that part wrong and I end up having to manually change the recipient info.
Thanks guys!
Anyone?

I like how in the stock dialer, when you select a contact, you swipe left to SMS or swipe right to call, quite slick. However, this doesnt seem to work for the favorites (as long as I use grid view i/o list view). When I tap on a favorite, it brings up the contact profile (w/ all the phone numbers, email addresses etc) instead of dialing by default; very inconvenient, esp when you're in a rush to call from the street. Am I missing a setting?
I've tried using exDialer instead; almost perfect except it doesn't clear missed call notifications (you still need to open the stock dialer to clear that) and doesn't show your call log as clearly (just one entry/contact, instead of showing all recent inbound/outbound/missed calls as distinct records). Is there any way around both of these issues?
Whenever I make a call, on the dialer screen, the data that i have entered in the contact note field is shown. How do I hide it?
