Smart Dialing
Smart Dialing makes it easy to dial a phone number. When the user starts entering numbers or characters,
Smart Dialing 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). The user can then select the
desired number or contact from the filtered list to dial.
Open the Phone screen, then tap the keys on the Phone keypad that correspond to the phone number or
contact to call. The contact panel lists contacts that match the sequence that you entered.
Smart Dialing starts looking for numbers or contacts that match the sequence entered.
To find a phone number:
•
Enter the first one or two digits to find a phone number in Call History.
•
Enter the first three digits or more to find a phone number from the saved Contacts and SIM card.
To find a contact name:
• Enter the first letter of a contact’s first name or last name. Smart Dialing searches for the letter starting
from 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 “2” which is associated with
[a, b, c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the following will be considered matches:
“Smith, Bernard”, “Adams, John”, “Carlson, Eileen”, “Dillon, Albert”, “Childs, Larry”, “Cooper, Robert”
and “Parks, Celine”.
• If the matching list is long narrow down the search further by entering another letter. Using the same
example above, tap “3” which is associated with (d, e, f), the matching list is narrowed down to the
following names: “Smith, Bernard”, “Adams, John”, and “Parks, Celine”.
