Got a new Nokia phone?
Try making a call, takes a few secs, getting the contacts app up, searching for the contact, clicking on the ‘call’ button. Can’t be avoided unless you’ve got the contact in your last dialled list of entries or have got voice calling activated.
What’s next is most annoying though… the phone asks if you want to dial the contact’s mobile number, home number or business number if you have multiple entries against it.
Try sending a text… if the contact’s got an email address assigned to it, the phone asks, do you wanna send it his mobile number or his email address!!?!?!
You don’t want options when sending a text message, do you? All you want to do is to type a message a send it to their mobile number.
If you’re got a recent firmware you might be able to set a default number for activiaties like SMS and call for your phonebook contacts.
How-to:
–> Contacts
–> Contact Name
–> Options
–> Defaults.
Set a default for Voice calls, Video calls, messages and e-mail.
Once done the default will automatically be used in each case.

It’s unbelievable that how you came up with this info. It might not surprise other gadget junkies in the town but surely surprises me. I am a simple man with simple aspirations. If I buy a phone I buy it to dial phone numbers or if I can manage with my thick fingers, to send texts. With great technology comes great problems example….multiple phone numbers saved, emails saved etc etc. Choosing which number to call on and which number to send your text to can be very tricky if you have depleted brain cells, like I have. So an easy way to tackle this problem is…. create multiple contact entries. Example. Tom Home, Tom Office and so on. People keep it simple, don’ let the technology bother you. We will be victorious against these machines one day!!! For now Sayonara
P.S. Thanks for the tip on Nokia Phones.
