Marking a Contact as Default
When you use applications such as the Voice
Dialer or other messaging type applications, the
application needs to know which information is
primary (default) in a contact entry list. For
example, when you say “Call John Smith”, if you
have three phone records for John Smith, the
Voice dialer is looking for the “default” number
or entry.
The
Mark as default
option marks one entry in a
contact record to use as the default. This comes
in handy when you have multiple entries for the
same person.
1. From the Home screen, tap .
2. Tap a Contact entry.
3. Press and then tap
Mark as default
.
The Mark as default screen displays radio
buttons next to the contact name, phone
number, or other contact information.
4. Tap the radio button next to the entry
information you want to be the primary
information (such as name, phone number,
or email) and select
Save
.
Note:
If there are multiple phone numbers
assigned to an entry, assigning one as the
default will automatically dial that number
when the contact is selected for dialing.
