[Q] Conference Code Dialing too Fast - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently rooted my HTC One (m7) and I'm now running ViperOne 7.0.1. I do a lot of conference calls throughout the day and use the app MobileDay to automatically dial the number and conference code. It extracts the 800 number and the PIN conference code from the invitation and separates them by commas (pauses) and dials something like 1-800-555-5555,,,12345.
Since rooting, I've noticed that it dials the conference code (i.e. 12345 after the pause) too fast for each numbers to be registered. I then have to manually enter the PIN. These codes can be 4 to 10 digits long so I have to quickly memorize them and sometimes input them while driving. Clearly this isn't ideal. There is generally no problem dialing the call in number. The only issue is with the pin code. I had this problem when I had CM11 installed as well.
Has anyone else experienced this or have a suggestion as to how I might be able to "tweak" the dialer settings?

No help huh?

I'm not familiar with the app but am fairly solid at troubleshooting. It's hard to think it's an issue with root or a custom rom if it happens on both Sense and CM, being that they are very different, yet the app still has the same issue. Have you tried uninstalling that version and possibly finding an older version of the app to see if it exhibits the same behaviors?

Yeah I have the same issue on CM 12.1
For me, it seems to lose the last few digits of the conference code -- This is pretty infurating

[Q] Dialer calls stored number instead of typed

Hello everyone.
To call a number in my city, I need to type just 7 digits, without area/country code.
But, the problem with Optimus One is, if it has a number stored in contacts (with another area code), it ignores my input and always calls a stored number.
Behavior has changed slightly with update 2.2 to 2.2.1 but problem still there.
Just to clarify what I mean: let's say my local area code is (123) and I want to call a local number 999-8877.
There is another number stored: +<country>(456) 9998877
On a 2.2 stock, LG O1 always called +<country>(456) 9998877, doesn't matter what I typed in - 999-8877 or even +<country>(123) 9998877.
On a V10g, so 2.2.1 - it's ok when I type full-format number (but quite boring),
but if I try to call just 9998877 - it still always calls +<country>(456) 9998877.
The same problem in Dialer One, Dialer2, Youlu - probably because they all use standard dialer api.
Not sure if it fixed with update to 2.3, requested LG support about that, but... well, I believe you understand what that means to ask LG support :-D
So, they did not answer at all.
Would appreciate any idea, especially if someone could check and compare 2.2 vs 2.3.
Thanks!

[Q] Calls, numbers and long distance operators

Hello,
Just got my HTC Ultimate (Brazil's for Titan) and I'm experiencing some problems while dialing and returning calls...
For the details below I'll use a number (9999-8888) from Brazil (country code 55), with 31 as area code.
I store my numbers in international format (+55 31 9999-8888, for the number above) and Vivo (my mobile carrier) sends incoming calls identified as 03199998888 (same number).
I can't call none of them, as I need to dial (according to Brazil's standards) a number in the following format:
0 15 31 9999-8888
The leading ZERO identifies a long distance call, the following "15" tells them to use a especific long distance provider, 31 is the area code and the rest is the number.
In android I've used several apps to do this "translation" in real time, while calling, like "Operadora DDD", "Profiler" or Right Number...
Is there anything like this in Windows Phone 7?
I've checked the "International calling assist" thing too...
I believe it's good to match incoming calls with different number patterns from my contacts.
In fact, no matter where it's on or off, my phone matches 03199998888 for "+55 31 9999-8888", so I believe it would deal with more strange patterns...
While receive a call and match a contact is OK, calling is still a challenge...
Anyone with tips?
Hi, rgmarques. I'm from Brazil too. I have the same problem. Send email to [email protected].
Thanks

Hi guys, i'm a former owned of a HD7 and now I own a Ultimate too.
All my contacts use the pattern: +5511XXXXXXXX, for São Paulo as an example. All working now.
The fallowing patterns also works: 011XXXXXXXX, 0YY11XXXXXXXXX
As an example, if you use a TIM SIM, the match option when someone calls you will not work, at least never worked on any imported device I own previously. This is because when your recieve a local call, TIM does no put the DDD before the number! This is done nice by Vivo.
Please, don't keep information on your email, share it with forum. Since the Titan is a brand new device here in Brazil, more people will come to find solutions for their problems.

Try this: Go to Settings and then choose SIM application.
Click on "show application", click on "Facilidades" and then "Vivo DDD". Activate it.
Give feedback please.

Well, seems like my SIM card doesn't have a "facilidades" option...
Here in minas Gerais, we've moved from Telemig Celular to Vivo 1,5 years ago and some stuff hasn't changed completely yet... SIM apps seems to be the case...
I've seen different behaviors in incoming calls matching on my Motorola Milestone,depending on the ROM I used. Never tried different carriers, as it was never an option. But I believe they might send different numbers as originator of the call, resulting in different results.
But my problem relates to originating a call...
Vivo won't let me call +5511XXXXYYYY... I need to call 01511XXXXYYYY...
Well, while no alternative solutions come up, I've changed my contact numbers to match our (Brazilian) pattern... Regular expressions made this reasonable while nothing else shows up... If anyone needs any specific help with the process, just let me know...
I'll keep looking and will report here if i find anything useful...
Thanks.

Call VIVO and ask them to enable this for you. Or, if your have an old Nokia, try you SIM on it and see if the option appears there for you.
But can be different SIMs for each State.
When you DIAL without the DDD Operator, nor the AREA, does it completes the call? If not, this is the problem and this service from VIVO will 'add' the DDD Operator when you do a long distance call.

Hi Cris,
I have a Titan with Tim, and I save the contacts with 04121XXXX-XXXX, so when I receive a call from my contacts I don't see the contact's photo or name, only the tel number XXXX-XXXX without area code. But when I save the number like XXXX-XXXX without area code and Tim code, the photo appears on screen.
I had a Htc Diamond with Tim and photos appears well.

Well,
I used to save my contacts in the international format, +55 31 9999-8888.
With that, I'll need a transformation instead of a simple addition of the carrier code...
If I call 03199998888, the call completes when it's a local one. If it's a true long distance call, it will fail, requiring me to explicitly inform the carrier code.
Well, I will try to check if Vivo has any hint for me.
I'll call them tomorrow.
Thanks again.

[Q] Incorrect phone number displayed in recent calls - outgoing

Since around the beginning of March I noticed that my phone is showing completely random numbers for all outgoing calls for people that I have in my contacts list. The numbers that it shows are not numbers that I have dialed or received calls from in the past. (If I long-press one of the dialed numbers, the "Call +***-***-****" line displays the correct number), so it seems to be more of an appearance issue. The numbers displayed seem to be consistent for the person I call. I do not remember making any changes around the time this started, but I did notice it about 1 week after it started, so I don't remember exactly.
The correct person is displayed, just a completely random number. When I called Verizon they had never heard of this issue, and the numbers it is displaying are not Verizon numbers. The area codes for the numbers are for completely different parts of the country.
The only dialing related program I have installed is Google Voice, but I am not making these calls using it.
Complete factory reset fixes it, but I don't want that so I did a nandroid restore afterwards. Clearing the recent calls list does not fix the issue.
See attachment for image of what it is doing. I would have linked it but apparently I need 8 more posts to do so.

[Q] Keypad issues with CM when connecting to conference call

I've the following issue with CM on my SII and wanted to ask if anyone else has run into a similar issue. I have to connect to conference calls on a regular basis. I call a number and then I have to enter the conference code using the keypad. Both with CM10 and CM11, the numbers I entered are different to what the conference system hears. Even though I see the correct numbers on my phone, the conference system gets a different response. Sometimes digits are repeated, and sometimes digits are missing.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Note that the same issue with OmniRom on a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 was described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2592102 but nobody offered any solution.
I just found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712256 (from 2012 with CM 7.2) which suggests that this problem only happens when the headphones are connected. I can confirm that this issue is gone when I disconnect the headphones.
Might this be a hardware issue or is this a problem with CM? Unfortunately, I cannot test with the original Android from Samsung.

CM11 Dialer: Dialer/Browser automatically add "+1" prefix which blocks outgoing calls

CM11 Dialer: Dialer/Browser automatically add "+1" prefix which blocks outgoing calls
Great experiences so far with CM11. Persistent issue with native dialer (as well as Google Dialer) and unnecessary plus-code dialing for domestic calls.
However, I've noticed a persistent bug: the dialer will not complete any call that begins with a plus code extension (for example, “+1 555 6946). The dialer produces a busy signal instead of completing the call. However, if I edit it before calling to remove the “+1” prefix, the call completes normally. This problem occurs even though I am only making domestic calls within the US, and occurs in every tested version of Cyanogenmod (although it is absent in the rooted stock rom).
I can replicate the problem for any number that I look up on a web browser through Google. For example, if I look up “Chipotle New York” and hit “call” it automatically sends the dialer a number with a “+1” extension. Again, this results in a busy signal unless I edit the number to remove the “+1” prefix. This means that I cannot simply edit all of my contacts to remove the prefix since the problem will occur anytime I send a contact to my dialer through a browser.
Thanks in advance for any insights.
Device Information:
- CyanogenMod 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-jewel
- Android version 4.4.4
- Baseband version 1.13.11.1105
- Sprint (USA)
- on HTC Jewel (Evo 4g LTE)
Saw you hadn't gotten an answer to this in threads across a few sites, so hopefully this finds you. I've not found a proper fix for this bug either, but have been able to work around it by using an app called Prefixer from the store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tftbelow.prefixer&hl=en. A single outgoing rule is free. Just create one to remove all instances of +. The + will be put into the dialer still from google or calling back a number that came in with it, but when you hit send, the app intercepts the number, removes the + and the call connects.
Its a hack, but it works for now. Happy dialing!
