2.2 Making Calls
To make a call, you can either dial a number or select a contact you want to call.
Make a call from the Phone screen
The Phone’s Smart Dial feature makes it quick and easy for you to place a
call. When you start entering a phone number or contact name, Smart Dial
automatically searches and sorts the contact entries on the SIM card, in Contacts,
and the phone numbers in Call History (including incoming, outgoing, and missed
calls). You can then select the desired number or contact from the filtered list.
You can just enter the first letter of the name or number of a contact. Smart Dial will
search for contact phone numbers and the first character of a contact name as well
as from the character that appears after a space, dash, or underscore in a contact
name. For example, if you tap number “” on the phone keypad, which is associated
with [a, b, and c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the following will
be considered matches: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “John-Carter”, “Carter, Ellen”,
“Dixon, Allan”, “Thomas_Clark”, “JaneCampbell”.
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further, enter
another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to tap “” which is
associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed down to the following
names: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”.
To call a phone number or contact
1.
Press the TALK/SEND button or tap Phone on the Home screen.
2. Begin entering the first few numbers or characters by tapping the keys on
the Phone keypad. As you enter numbers or letters, the Smart Dial panel will
display matches found.
If you tapped a wrong number or character, tap
to erase each subsequent
digit or character. To erase the entire entry, tap and hold .
