Is there a way to paste a phone number from clipboard into the dialer? Seems mad that I cant do that, so I have to copy the number down with pen and paper just to dial it back in.
Was out today and called up some numbers for restaurants in the browser. I tried to copy the number from the browser so I could paste it into the dialer. I managed to get the number to the clip-board, but then I couldn't paste it into the dialer! I'm using a DSTL1 which only has soft keyboard and I can't get combinations of shift and menu to make it work.

It is these two things that kill sense for me. If anyone has any workarounds they would be much appreciated.
does anyone know how to copy/paste a number to make a call from it? as some numbers don't come up as being recognised as phone numbers.

We prefer to keep our mobile numbers private, so we need to block our caller id on a per call basis. It wouldn't work for us to block caller id on all calls. On my BB, I would copy and paste the number and then add *67 as a prefix.
On the Hero I can't find a way to edit the phone number from the text message. I can delete it, but can't add to it. Most of these numbers I would not want to add to my address book. I had my office text the number with *67 as a prefix, but the Hero doesn't recognize the *. It just copies the digits. What workaround options do I have?
[Q][APP][3.0+] Im looking for a camera app that has a function like banking apps were you can scan the OCRnumber with the mobilecamera.
I would like it to be able to scan a textrow or numbers I choose, have it set the data to clipboard or input it to a variable for the app Tasker.
I do not want my phone to vibrate when dialing a phone number on the stock dialer. I've been looking for the right menu item that controls this unwanted (on my part) feature of my otherwise perfect Evo. Anybody know where to find the setting that turns off the phone dialer vibrations?

View 1 Replies View RelatedLots of my contacts - especially my "favorite" contacts - have multiple phone #'s, which is pretty typical. So it's a nice feature in the dialer that lets you select a specific number - home, office, mobile, etc., to dial every time you pull up the favorites tab within the dialer screen. I by mistake checked "use as default number" for one particular contact, but now I want to deactivate that selection and have no default number for that particular contact.
I know how to switch the default number from one to another; is there a way to deactivate the default number and just have the phone ask me which number to dial, e.g. home, office, mobile, etc.? I've been trying to tinker with everything I can to no avail, and I've also been shut out trying to answer this question online. Only thing I haven't done is call Verizon.
Ive been searching for this for a few days and Ive got nothing so hopefully someone knows. Is there any way to call a number that's been sent via sms? Ex: My wife sent me a text containing the phone number of a client. On previous phones, that number would be a hyperlink and when I clicked it the dialer would open with that number pre-inserted. It seems on the moment I have to memorize the number, go to the dialer and input it in. This isn't so easy when your driving or doing much of anything.
Is there any app or setting that allows me to automatically input the number into the dialer? I tried copy and paste but you cant paste into the dialer.
I have saved information to the clipboard on the EVO and now I dont know where to find the clipboard so I can view the information I saved. This is so frustrating.

Going to a contact to choose is getting annoying !
I've experienced two problems with Google Voice that are causing me to get charged minutes I wouldn't usually get charged. If I can't solve them, I'll have to go back to using my Verizon number. First, let me say that I'm using a new Google Voice number that isn't Verizon cell phone number or any other preexisting number. Second, my girlfriend is on my family plan, but she doesn't have GV yet. We're using the 700-minute plan, so we don't have a friends circle.
Problem 1: When I call my girlfriend's Verizon wireless phone using the GV on my Verizon phone, I get charged, and when she calls my GV number on my Verizon Wireless phone from her Verizon wireless phone, she gets charged. We don't cash in on our free in-network calling. I know, this should have been obvious, but it just never occurred to me until after I looked at the bill. I'd be able to work with that, though, and just select "Call without using Google Voice" or whatever when calling her if it weren't for the second problem. When people call my Google Voice number, I get charged when I don't answer. Usually, it's just a one-minute charge, but sometimes it's two or three minutes (don't know why). With anything less than an unlimited plan, minutes count. Not good.
Basically, i use my personal cell phone for work and personal use, i have multiple exchange accts that keep things sorted and seperated.
recently though i have been getting more and more business calls to my cell phone, during and outside of normal business hours.
what im looking for is an app that will take a selective group of contacts/phone numbers/CID strings and if it is a "business" call then forward it to a specific phone number (external number, the actual business line).
I have seen apps on the market and around that will forward calls to voicemail if they match certain filters, but i cant really seem to find an app that will forward to an external number. Any way I could accomplish this?
Don't know if this has been mentioned but the Evo has more of an iPhone style cut and paste now! My Hero running 2.1 didn't.

I need to be able to copy a phone number (not a "contacts" number, but a random phone number) from call log and be able to paste it in a calendar entry. For example: 555-555-5555 (copy) and then paste in a calendar entry for 5:00 pm on June 8, 2010.

There are a lot of clipboard managers around, but I found none open source, and it's difficult to believe they work by checking the clipboard every 15 seconds.
Is there a good method to observe clipboard changes?

View 1 Replies View RelatedA couple of questions. How do you cut/copy and paste in Droid? Can it be done?
And, after making a video on Droid, how do you move it to your computer? I am assuming the video resides on the SD card (since this is where your photos go). Is the best way to transfer to just put the card in your computer, or is there a better way? Just asking for a buddy who made a video and tried to transfer via USB, and it only transferred a part of the video.
I figured out how to copy i can't figure out how to paste though
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe want to disable the default dialer application and install our own dialer application on phone. We want to know how we can disable the default dialer so that it doesn't listen for missed calls, incoming calls and also it doesn't gets launched by other application for making calls instead our application gets launched. Only our dialer application should be listening on it. We want to use same format as existing content URIs supported by default dialer in our own dialer application. Is this possible? If yes then how we can achieve it? We don't want to delete the call log application code or we don't want to remove it from build. We want to have default dialer in device. Our dialer application will be installed later may be by downloading from Internet by end user.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI build a website for phones like android and iphone,when users click an url , is it possible for me to invoke some system build in activities like Dialer or SMS)?I want to implement this cause I hope when user click the link with phone number,user can start to call directly. it will open the market app and lead me to the app I search. so I think if we format the url in some way ,maybe it can also open the Dialer app in Android.I know it must be another case when it comes to Iphone,but currently,it is fine enough it works with Android,any one ,any idea ?
