General :: How To Automatically Add Prefix To Dialed Numbers
Jul 2, 2012
I have an HTC Rezound, with stock OS and everything.
I work for a hospital where I frequently have to dial a 4 digit number to call different zones of the hospital. (every phone number is lets say 212-883-xxxx)
So Instead of always putting in 212-883 before the 4 digit suffix, is there a way I can tell my phone to automatically add that 6 digit prefix, without the use of an app?

So I have tried about 10 apps so far that none seem to do what I am looking to accomplish.
I have a dial in phone system that allows me access to a dial tone. So if want to be able to select a number from my history, contacts or a clickable link and have it prompt which dialer I want to use. If I choose this app it should dial MY number and enter my access code THEN dial the number I was trying to call.
So for example I am trying to call 212-555-1212 and my number is 212-666-1212 it should dial:
212-666-1212[mynumber],,[pause]1234[accesscode],,[pause] 212-555-1212
I have found a few apps that seem to do this, however they have integrated them in such a way where it will only automatically enter into the "Calling card mode" based on dialing rules (Such as area code and country code) there is no way to manually select when to utilize the "calling card mode" and when not to,
I was thinking if there is a Alternative Dialer that supports calling cards, it will add the necessary hooks into the OS and then I can just manually select which app to use to make calls (Either the stock dialer or this new dialer)

My Android based (Gingerbread) smartphone has a number of contacts with several phone numbers (home, work, mobile etc.) for each. When I call a contact the call goes through the mobile operator and I'm charged for the call by him.
I also have an an Asterisk-based PBX with a FCT (Fixed Cellular Terminal, or GSM Dialer or Fixed Wireless Terminal) connected to a VOIP provider that charges much less. If I prefix a phone number in Contacts with a fixed string (containing the mobile number to the SIM card in the FCT, plus some pause, plus the password to access the PBX's dial tone plus a bit more of pause) it works fine.
What I'm looking for is a way to have this standard prefix string stored somewhere and it be automatically padded at the beginning of each number dialed. Ideally, when dialing a contact I would be asked if I wanted to call with or without the standard prefix. Is that doable?

I got my HTC Desire today, and despite spending many hours carefully updating my Google contacts, I've found that received calls and SMS messages are not displayed with the contact they're from. I believe this is because the details in my contacts list are in the format "01234 567789", whereas the incoming calls/messages are in the format "+441234 567789", and it's not realizing that the "+44" and "0" are interchangable. How can I resolve this, without going through all my contacts changing the prefix on the phone number?

In the source of Android I found programs written in language C ("dsp_core.c" and "dsp_dtmf.c") which are capable of decode DTMF. I've recorded (amr file) with my phone a conversation in which the one I'm calling dials DTMF tones from his cell and I would like to use the program to detect those tones and that my phone automatically calls the number that he dialed. My problem is I don't know how to use those two programs with the amr file I've recorded. If you need the programs because you haven't downloaded Android code source tell me and I'll send you them

Does anybody knows how to add "1" in front of a number? I'm in Canada right now and they don't let me call directly "303-333-3333" for example. I can't add the 1 in front of it by editing a number that called me. All my entries don't have a "1" and most of them are long distance.

I'm currently looking at rolling out Sony Xperia Z1s to our company users. At the minute, our global address list (in Active Directory/Exchange) contains all the phone numbers in the following format. +44 (0)1234 987654
When I select a contact from the global address list, calls and texts fail, as the recipient is resolved to +4401234987654. This is an invalid number
Connections to the global address list from iPhones, Nokia Win8s, and Blackberrys, that retrieve the same details, automatically omit the contents of the bracketed prefix and resolve to +441234987654.
We need to (ideally) keep the format of the contacts in the address list with the +44 (0)..... format, as these details are used to create email signatures, and with people based around the world, we need to keep the fully qualified international display format, also, I don't fancy the task of going through accounts of hundreds of people each with 4 different phone number entries, and editing them.

How to intercept incoming calls by adding a prefix like 19299 on incoming, and * on outgoing.
I have built and compiled an .apk file witch force closes for no apparent reason on launch. When compiled it compiles without any errors.
Is it even possible to monitor incoming calls on public API level? Or is that an API that is closed off? if the API is available, is it then possiblo to add said prefix both on incoming and outgoing calls?

I saw many sample codes that each variable contains the 'm' prefix. I don't know what this m means. I have two-year experience in MFC. Each variable has 'm' prefix to tell you that I'm the one variable of MFC component. (m stands for MFC). can anybody answer me this question?

If you find that the "android:" attribute prefix is cumbersome and reduces the readability of your Android XML files, you might want to try changing the prefix from android to _. If you do it via the Eclipse XML editor, it seems like you have to perform 2 find/replace operations with regular expressions. This is itself a cumbersome task, so you can automate it:
1) Download AutoHotKey, which lets you write a script to send keys and mouse clicks to a program. I believe that AutoKey does the same for linux.
2) Write a script to tell Eclipse to perform a find/replace, scope is all, wrap search, regular expressions on, 1st find expression is (xmlns:)android, 1st replace expression is 1_. 2nd find expression is (s)android: and 2nd replace expression is 1_:. I also added in format and save commands, so my AutoHotKey script is:
CODE:.......
The result is a single-keystroke (Ctrl-Shift-a) to change a layout file from:
CODE:.................
to
CODE:........................

My question is- with the telephony manager, is there a way to determine what number the phone is off hook with? I thought getLine1Number() might return that phone number that is being dialed, but it is not what I expect. I am working with 2 emulators, and added a log line so that I could see what that method is doing. When dialing another emulator, I expected getLine1Number() to return 5554, but it was 15555218135. Perhaps there is another method I should be using instead? Do I need to be into the source code to get the information I want?

This is my first Android phone after owning WinMobile phones for the last 5 years or so. Experiencing a frustrating issue with dialing phone numbers from my address book or Exchange GAL that contain extensions - typically preceeded by an "X" or "ext" or "-". Android ignores these delimeters and simply appends the extension to the main number, which then gets interpreted as an international number and the first 3 digits are assumed to be the country code. This renders all phone numbers with extensions unusable. Since I don't have edit capabilities of my company's GAL I can't just go make changes.What character are people using to separate extensions from the main number?

Last night I had my phone charging on the nightstand.It had been idle and charging for about 40 minutes when I left the room to get a glass of water.When I came back I found my wife on my phone explaining that I had NOT just dialed the phone.he person who received the call thought I was pranking her at least at first.I looked in my call log - and it had placed a call.The person was not in my contacts it just had a number.The area code and first three digits were the same as my number (probably just a coincidence) Rooted, running Ivans ROM. This Eris was never that buggy - only ever got the 50% idle and 90% camera battery usage indications - but even when those happened the phone was running fine and battery life was reasonable. This latest issue has me concerned.

I have a number of contacts with a phone number entry like 407-555-1212~Peter. I use it to differentiate between cellphones for husband and wife in the same contact record. It's worked great on my previous phones, but with Contacts on my Nexus One, the entire string is converted into a number like 407555121257259, and the phone announces that the number cannot be dialed. Any suggestions?

Well it's 1am, I've taken my phone from my pocket and found that the screen is on and it's two minutes into a call to a friend of mine who called me earlier in the evening! This seems to happen regularly. The calls are always to the person who last called me. I think it happens when I've been playing with the phone and put it back in my pocket having forgot to turn the screen off first. Does anyone have any solutions before my friends start blocking my number?

I have a TEXT column and I want to match all rows where the value has a certain prefix. For example, WHERE mycol LIKE 'myprefix%' However, I noticed in some optimization guidelines that this will not use the index and instead you should do this:WHERE mycol >= 'myprefix' AND mycol < 'myprefiy'Instead of simple A-Z chars, I have a whole variety of UTF-8 chars (think chinese characters).My question is, how to work out the next char in UTF-8? Is it enough to add one to the codepoint,

Can anyone call the last number they dialed in less than 5 moves on Motorola Droid without having that contact set as a direct dial shortcut on their Home screen?This is after screen has timed out and phone shotcut is not already open. I currently have to>press power>swipe or use pattern>press phone>press call log> press phone icon next to name. If the answer is no, people really need to think twice when they say how the phone is so easy to use. If it can be done quicker, please show how.

I get phone numbers sent via text messages. I need to dial *67 to keep my number private when calling clients. On my BB I would copy and paste from the text and then add the *67 prefix. On the Hero, I can't edit the number once on the dial page. I have tried to copy/paste with the *67 sent in the text, but the Hero doesn't recognize the * as part of the number and only copies the 67 part of the prefix. What apps or workarounds do I have? We don't want to block our caller id completely, only as needed. I just have to figure this important function out.

IMAP path prefix is missing in the HTC mail app when setting up a new email account so basically you can't set up your IMAP mail properly.

It was late at night and I couldn't sleep so I decided to listen to some music with the HTC headphones. Then I thought I heard something outside, so I pressed pause on the headphones and then I repeatedly pressed play, I am a really impatient person and the music stopped and the phone started calling someone. After some tests I found out that the phone calls the last person you called if you press play 5 times. Is it a bug? Couse i really dont like the feature and im sure people dont like being called at 3 in the night either.

I am sure this has been asked millions of times but how shitty does it look, my goodness. everytime i dial a friend & see their nice pretty picture but soon as it dials, the picture looks awful & blurry. My pictures are good quality pics that i saved to my sd card & then i just added them while creating contacts etc. is their a easy fix to this? i also have a app that lets you display a full caller id photo when your being called but it does not look good right now.

I have a serious problem when making calls without a headset, with the phone in my hand. People I call are telling me that they hear a phone number being dialed loudly while I speak to them, as if I am making a call while speaking to them. Today it happened and the person said she had to shout to be heard over this loud noise-which I cant hear!! I must be touching some button or application with my hand or face, but what?

My boyfriend just left for Basic Training for the Army, and I should be expecting a call from him soon, and then possibly every Sunday. It could be from his phone, or a phone at the base, I don't know which.
I work weekends so I need to find an app that will only allow incoming calls from my boyfriends number and ALL unknown numbers.
I've been able to find apps to add people to "VIP" lists, but not one that also allows the silencing of my entire contact list and allows Unknown.
(I'm trying to avoid downloading an app and manually going in and silencing everyone.
