[QNS] Call contact from sms - Touch HD General

When I received a sms from a unknown contact, how do I call from number shown in the sms w/o saving the contact first?

When on the Messages tab, click on "All Messages" then find the sender and highlight them. Press the Call key next to the Home key to bring up another screen to verify the number, then press "Call"

That's helpful, thanks...

Extending WINMO Dialer

I'm trying to add a custom menu entry to the pocket outlook contact list so that i can do my own thing when a user with a pager number is selected.
At the moment i have this working, if you select a contact with a pager number and then press the menu softkey you see my menu entry, if the selected contact does not have a pager number my menu item is disabled.
All good now my problem is i'd like to change the text of the left softkey that normally says "call" or 'Send text msg" to my own custom
message.
I would even like to intercept when the contact "details" item is selected.
This is all on wimo 6/6.1
thanks for any help.

Save new contact from Msg Inbox

When a new text msg comes to ur msg inbox folder from an unknown number which is not there in ur contacts list and now i want to store that number. How to do as there is no option to store the new number.
Go to "start", "settings", "personal", "phone", "advanced"......tic box new phone number......
Not 100% sure it does the job when receiving an SMS....and phone number must be visible ofcourse.....not hidden
This is helpful when u get a call from unknown number and you can save it, but it will not work out when u get a sms from unknown number
Tap on the Number from the message view and it shows you the option - Save to Contacts.
Its still not working
When i tap on the msg in msg view i am not getting "Save to Contacts" options
I am getting options like "Delete" "Reply" "Reply to all" "Forward" "Move"
I am using HTC Touch 2 phone.
I use the same phone, Ganesh and I am able to do it.
When you open the msg to read - It shows you the heading on the top line -
Conversation with XXXXX.
The next line reads -
XXXXX (TIME): actual msg displays here.
Now if you click on the second line which shows you the number & time; that will take you to the options of saving address: (in this case the number)
1. Send Email from Outlook
2. Search Address Book
3. Save to Contacts
On clicking the Save to Contacts, it takes you to another screen to add as a new contact or update existing contact.
I am getting it now
I was tapping and holding it for a while so i didnt get the "Save to contacts" options
I just need to tap once and i am getting "Save to Contacts" options
Thanks a lot dude
Glad to be of help.

Calling Voicemail too many button pushes

Folks, is it just me or is there a trick I have missed?
When I get a voicemail and I try to call my voicemail box by tapping on the message asking me to call my voicemail and I end up having to hit the screen 3 times !
I get the Incoming message stating
"Please call 321, You have N new voiceMail messages"
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER and get the menu pop up with the number and several options e.g. Forward, delete message etc
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER (AGAIN!)
Then I get another screen asking me to verify the number with three options - call, send message and save to people
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER AGAIN!!
I press on the CALL button and hold down the number "1" and it'll dial voicemail (that is if i dont see it near the top of my recent calls...in which case i'll just tap on it). So really, it involves two presses to call voicemail.
Thanks, didn't realise the 1 number key was preset to voicemail. At least that is some improvement. You would have hoped the number in the incoming message being clickable would have automatically dialled the number for you but what the heck.
Thanks again

highlight numbers to call

in an sms message, potential phone numbers are underlined. and tapping on it will give you the option to call these numbers. however, this option is not present for numbers located inside contacts or calendar entries.
is there a program that can do this?

[REQ] Send SMS from phone application button

Hi,
I was wondering if someone can edit phone.apk and add/replace a button with a SMS button, so whenever you want to send a message to someone, you enter the phone app, type his name (smart typing), press the SMS button and it opens to u the SMS application with the recepient as the user you typed.
Is this achievable?
Why dont you just swipe left on the contact to send message?
