here in Thailand many numbers start with a 0 zero and my phone adds a 1 to the number when dialing? How can just dial the number in my address book and keep the phone from adding a leading 1?
When you punch "0", the phone thinks you are dialing a "+" which for US numbers means exit country code "001" (USA has to be number "1" in everything) because there is no + key, zero is coded to do that. I don't do international calling, so I don't know if there is a setting in the phone settings where you can alter this behavior. Only thing I might suggest at this point is to edit your contact when you add it and delete out the 1.
I think, but I don't remember for sure, but there may be this option in the settings for either the contact list, or the dialer.
I forgot to mention this happens primarily when using the phone contact list. I do slowly add +66 to the numbers but it is annoying! :-) I just looked at the contacts and there is no settings for dialing etc. I can't find a separate dialer app just the phone app that has no settings for that.
As I am using the google contacts I guess I could search the whole database and then change it on the PC :-(
Try opening the dialer (like you are making a call) then press menu. If the option is available, it will probably be in there.
HTC has a unique dialer ? no options referring to dialing :-(
Yes they do, I'll check on this when I see my wife later, she has the same phone.
