Galaxy S5 :: In Dial Pad Multiples Of Same Contact Show Up
Oct 12, 2015
For some reason, when I go to dial a number imported from the cloud it'll show up doubled, as seen below. It will show the same exact numbers (in this example, both work and mobile) twice. Is there any way to change this so that I get one mobile and one work phone? Running Android 5.0
In my old Xperia phone, I can create Direct Dial shortcut on Home Screen. In which the icon displayed for the shortcut is the photo in the Contact. However, after I changed to the new Z2, the photo can't be displayed as icon on the Home Screen.
I am wondering if there is a way to get contact pics to show for messenger conversions. I have my contexts synced with Facebook, but the pic do not show in messenger. I upgraded from a S3 and it did this but I can't figure it out how to on the S6.
Default contact profile picture for me doesn't show up in sms app for Samsung Galaxy s6... the other persons picture appears next to their text, but mine does not. I previously had the S3 and my picture appeared next to my messages. How to have my picture next to my texts for my S6?
I'm using my 6720c:Is it possible to dial a contact just by "saying" its name into the phone? I think so, but I didn't manage to so far.How do I add several numbers to a single contact? The Nokia phones that I had before distinguished between private, work and mobile number. I'd like to do that on my 6720c, too.Thanks for any response.
Is there a way to enable the dial pad to show up instead of favorites when you click the telephone icon?
All of my other android phones I could either dial by name as in spell it out using the alpha buttons or if I wanted to call my wife and her number is ie. 614-555-5555 I could dial 0067 on the pad and it was the only number with that combo and pop her name up. Now I have to dial 6145555 and it pops her name up. Is there a way to change this??
I came from a Moto RZR Maxx, went to the Samsung s6 (dialer worked great but no data and voice at the same time) Now to the nexus6...
This has happened since day one and has happened on 2 devices. It has happened in the stock messaging app as weel as chomp and handcent. I sometimes get as many as 6 of the same message. It doesn't happen all of the time, but too much for me. I've tried clearing the cache and I even did a master reset wih no luck.
how to edit which information from the contacts that will be displayed when trying to call a contact? I cannot get anything else than Firstname, Company showed - which is not how I want this.
Furthermore I have found no way to lookup addresses in the Nokia Car navigator from contacts.
I searched the forum and found this problem mentioned a few times in the past, but the solutions are all for older OS, that is not applicable to the current 6.0 OS. There does not seem to be a "Dial From Home Screen" option to check any more.
Used to be, typing the beginning of a name from the Home screen brought up matches in the Contacts list so you could easily call them.Now when I type a name, other apps (mail,texts, etc) will display matches, but nothing from contacts. Indeed, dialing from the Home screen doesn't work at all -- I can't even type in a number.
Yesterday I upgraded the software on my Torch, to whatever the recommended upgrade was. Now, when I go to my contacts and touch the touch screen to dial one of the contacts, nothing happens. By upgrading did I all of a sudden lose the ability to dial simply by touching the contact name?
I have a Bold 9700 running 5.0.0.545 with bell mobility. When I upgraded to this version I am no longer able to type in a contact name from the home screen to dial them. I now have to go into the address book, then type their name. I can only enter numbers directly from the home screen. Is anyone else having this issue?
I recently got a Galaxy S6 and noticed that when I swipe to call the phone does nothing on the first try (except for showing the green bar with the words "call"). Sometimes it opens the calling screen for a millisecond but then reverts back to contacts. On the second try however it does connect the call. The same happens when I'm in the phone dialer. I'll type in the number, press dial and then it just goes back to the dial screen as if I didn't type in anything. After typing in the number and pressing dial a second time does the phone actually call the number.
It also sometimes happen that the phone will call (showing calling), but the call never connects. After ending the call and redialing does the call go through and connect.
I have a brand new ozone that I need to program for Pageplus. I need to dial *22890, but I can't dial. The phone prompts me to hit the send key which dials *228, which does me no good. Is there any way to make this thing dial the number I need?

On my s4 I was able to add a direct dial shortcut to my home screen so that you could call a particular contact with just one touch. I can't find this option on the s6. How to do it?
how to stop the awful beep sound during calls for the Galaxy S5? I know there is a thread on this for the Note S4 but the way to turn it off on that device (the enhanced lte trick) is not available/ a feature on the Galaxy S5. The tone is so horrible sounding and hurts my ears.
-Yes have check minute minder- it is off -The sound occurs on speaker, while using headphones, or just holding the phone to my ear. -There does not seem to be a pattern for time or frequency of the tone. -The one thing i have noticed is that it always occurs when I talk to people who have iPhones, but there does not seem to be a consistency with droids.
well i had a curve 8520 backed it up using desktop manager, so than i restored it on to my bold 9700 couple of days later i was talking to my mate and on his blackberry it had a RED "X" on there so i deleted him and tried adding him but it keeps saying pending, this also happens with 2 other contacts.
I recently got a new number and reset my iPhone settings. I have discovered that an old contact from my previous number still shows up in my iMessage recents. I have not contacted them on my new number and I want to know why they are still showing up.
When somebody in my contacts list calls my BB Bold 9930 I do not see the contact name, just the phone number. However when my BB is unlocked and somebody in my contacts list calls then I see the associated name with the number. When the phone is locked then I only see the number. How can I see the caller name for anyone who is in my contacts list even when my phone is locked?
After syncing my brand new xperia z2 phone with gmail, i see the contact pictures in "contacts". however, when i call someone, the picture does not show on screen, it just shows the generic "head".they are NOT sim or phone contacts, i switched all of the SIM contacts to be gmail contacts just for this purpose.why am i not seeing the contact pictures?
