Make normal calls default instead of WhatsApp calls? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since WhatsUp calls were introduced, many places I click on to call a contact, default to WhatsApp calls....I have to manually go in my address book and call from there.
How do I change this?

Sending calls to voicemail

Hi
I've only had the xda for a week and I have a question:
I know how to forward all calls to voicemail but its a long procedure (phone-setting-call forwarding etc.).
Is there an easier way to do this, i.e. can you set up something like a macro on the desktop that you click and it will automatically do this and also one other for undiverting the phone.
Thanks

Simly set yourself some speed dials in the phone app.

special ringtone for contacts put NOT for SMS

Hello all,
I am since 3 days a proud owner of a S3
I found how to define an own ringtone to a single contact.
But today I was very surprised when I received a SMS the same ringtone which I expected only for incoming calls was ringing.
Does anyone know how to make it JUST incoming calls not all incoming activities of this contact?
Thanks
No one knows anything about it or is interessted in?
Dunno how or why you have the same ringtone as your SMS for your contact.
I've set a specific ringtone for my contacts and it's worked fine for me, SMS ringtones are the default one I set.
If you haven't tried already, go to the contact, press the menu button, Edit, then check to see the ringtone of the specific contact.
Hope that helps, if you have done this already and still getting the same ringtone for your SMS, it might be worth backing up your device, contents, contacts, then resetting the device again.
OK, I iopend contacts, klicked on the contact which I adressed a special ring tone.
in the list of the contact data there is a field ring tones, which gives me a choise of 3 (standard, ringtones,own files). I did choose the ringtone and it workes fine for incomming calles BUT it works unfortunatelly also for incoming sms or whatsapps ....
Is there no other solution except resetting?
I have fear resetting my device ... It is my first Android and I am not really familar with everything....

[Q] Confused on receiving calls with new Hangouts/Voice.

Very excited about the new Hangouts and Google Voice integration.
I use my Google Voice number as my primary number for calls and text.
1) Now that I have the new Hangouts app, does the Google Voice app provide any use?
2) At home I have poor signal, which is a perfect environment to receive calls to my GVoice number in the Hangouts app. Unfortunately when I check the "Incoming phone calls" option in Hangouts and when I receive calls things get confusing. The Hangouts dialer rings first, which I presume is the call being routed over data to my phone. Then the normal phone dialer rings, which I presume is the call being routed over the cell signal. This normal dialer shows up on top of the Hangouts one. If I want to answer the Hangouts one b/c I know my data signal is more reliable than cellular signal, then I have to slide the normal dialer to "hangup" and then answer the Hangouts one. Is there a way to disable the normal cellular dialer besides putting my phone in airplane mode when I'm home.
Thanks.

Is it possible to have the phone add the contact name by voice for incoming calls.
I have gone through settings but can't find anything.
