Direct dial a phone number feature is gone

When my phone operating system updated last month the Direct Dial feature is gone. there is a widget for direct dial but it goes into contact list and I still cant just dial a Number...This really sucks the numbers I want to dial are not in my contact list. ***

My phone is System
98.72.189.XT894.Verizon.en.us
Model
Droid4
Android version 4.1.2
Build date 11:25,  2 November 2013
my phone worked great up till 3 weeks ago When the phone did a system update.
I do not dial out much maybe 3 or 4 time a month my phone usage as a "Phone" is almost zero.
So I did not miss the dialer  until I needed to make a call.
the only way I can make a phone call now is to go into my contact and create the contact to dial out then the dialer shows up
Also if someone calls and I do not answer and they leave a message then I can see the call Log and the dialer and i can then Dial out.

  • How can I dial a phone number from an email message directly

    How can I dial a phone number from an email message directly,
    But even before the selection i will change or correct the number?
    If I copy the number in the notebook, all spaces are filled with % signs.
    When I dictate SIRI the number I get the answer: I do not know the number
    If I copy the number in the phone selection (above) the number can not be edited afterwards.

    You can dial a number appearing in an email by tapping on it.
    But if you need to correct the number first you cannot edit a received email.
    To edit the number tap on the forward symbol and when the draft comes up you should be able to correct the phone number, copy it and paste into your Phone App. Then delete the forward email without sending it.

  • How do I dial a phone number from Forms6i ?? OLE2,DDE??

    How do I dial a phone number from Forms6i ?? OLE2,DDE??
    Is it do-able??
    I have a contact form that has the contacts phone number, etc... I would like to add a button to dial the number which would open the phone line (probably through my modem) and dial the number ... where I would pickup the receiver and wait for connection...
    I need an example or a "How to" link or something where if I take the time I can get it working....
    IF not, is there software to do it?
    Thanks, Bill

    Yes, great! I will check into my modem... but I remember years ago have a c program that I used to send error messages through the modem to my alpha-numeric pager. With that I started with that c program being called from REXX IBM language and it spoke modem language...
    Is there another forum that would handle this type of request? what do you call telephone support? telephony? communication links? ....
    Thanks for the input!

  • Need to dial a phone number from Cold Fusion

    My boss asked me if there was any way that a phone number
    could be dialed from Cold Fusion. We have a website where at some
    point we want to just click a button and dial that phone number. My
    guess is that the conversation will then be carried through the
    computer's microphone and speakers and using the computer's modem.
    Let me know if there is a way, or what would be the easiest
    way to accomplish this, even if it has to be using VOIP, since
    that's an option for this project.
    Thanks!

    Is this an internal site or an public-facing site? If you are
    talking about using this tool in your intranet and you have a
    modern phone system in place, there may be an API to interfacing
    with your phone system. We use a TAPI interface to create a phone
    dialer so our callcenter agents can dial a phone number on their
    phone just by clicking on a link. I'm pretty sure there are a bunch
    of freeware/shareware TAPI COM objects you can use floating around
    the interwebs (If your phone system supports TAPI).
    If you are talking about a public-facing website, then I'm
    afraid I can't offer much advice other than to check out the Java
    Communications lead that Ted gave you.

  • My iphone dosen't doesn't make key tone sounds anymore when I write a text message or when I want to dial a phone number I don't know how to fix this problem, I don't hear the clicking noise anymore does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iphone dosen't doesn't make key tone sounds anymore when I write a text message or when I want to dial a phone number I don't know how to fix this problem, I don't hear the clicking noise anymore does anyone know how to fix this problem?And all the sounds on my phone are on, even the keyboard clicks.

    Try restarting your iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, double check the volume button just in case.  If you still can't hear the tones go into your settings>sounds and make sure the options are on. 

  • Dial a phone number embedded in a PDF document ...

    Hi,
    I cannot press on the phone numbers in my PDF document on my iPhone. Is it possible to dial a phone number embedded in a PDF document by pressing on it ? Is there a work around for that ?
    Regards.

    No you can not do this.

  • In the calendar app, is it possible to link directly to a phone number or address? This function exists in my Palm phone.

    Is it possible within the native iPhone calendar app to link an appointment directly with a phone number or address or person?  This function existed in the software on my 3 previous Palm phones.

    No, it isn't possible.  It would be nice but it would be very tricky to do since usually the files themselves also hold the data and can only hold it for one album at a time without changing a widely used standard for audio track tagging.  Frankly, I suspect the space savings would not be all that great.
    Yu can always ask:

  • Dialing a Phone Number in a Calendar Entry

    I give myself reminders in my calendar to call this person or that business; however, I am surprised that when I enter the phone number in the calendar event (I happen to sync up with Google Calendar) I cannot tap on said phone number to begin a phone call. Is this truly a limitation or am I doing something wrong?

    I will give Apple no excuse whatsoever on this point. Firstly, my Blackberry phones (2 curves and a bold) allowed me to dial from the location field with no problem at all. Others in the organizations I work with invite me to meetings and put dial info in the location field. This is an essential feature that Apple failed on before, and failed again in iOS4. Don't tell me its the carrier, or MS or anything else that Apple can't control. Other phones can do this simple thing. Apple can also. But they have chosen not to. Secondly, dialing the conference line, pauses, meeting ID numbers, etc in a SINGLE STRING from within a calendar notes area, or any other field is again, an essential smart phone feature that people like me are frustrated about. It worked beautifully on my BB phones. The new iOS4 greatly improved the DTMF tones. And the single string thing works in favorites and in contacts. But not in Calendar. Apple - fix these things please!

  • Popping noise with headphones and dialing a phone number in iOS6

    After upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS6, I hear a loud pop when dialing the first number for a phone call and wearing the headphones.  I did not have this problem on iOS5.  My wife's iPhone4 had the same problem.  Anyone else experience this?

    I have been struggling with this as well. I'm puzzled that I haven't found a solution. Conference calls in the "location" of Exchange appointments are pretty commonplace in my work environment and I have to think I'm not unique. I am currently using a "workaround". First I found that you can use a comma as a soft pause (3 seconds from the call connecting). That however didn't work when I tried it inside of the calendar details. The number becomes dial-able, but it ignores everything after the comma and treats it as normal punctuation. Since commas only work from inside the address book I just created address book entries for all of the bridge numbers I call on a regular basis. This doesn't solve the problem by any means but it solves it somewhat until they figure out that if the really want to be an enterprise device they need to copy Blackberry now and then whether they want to or not. What we need is numbers that are dial-able from not just inside the details, but in the header fields of an appointment - since that's where the organizer is usually going to put them in my experience. And please give us the "x" for a hard pause. I guess I should submit that huh? Anyway, I hear you. I doubt I was much help though, sorry.

  • Dial contact phone number?

    On my old pc, I used to have the option to plug in a phone line and have Outlook dial the contact's number for me. I don't see that option in Address Book, but it seems like it should exist. What am I missing?

    nothing like this exists in Address Book. maybe some 3rd party software can do it but you'd have to search for it.

  • Directly Dialing a Phone's Speakerphone/Intercom

    We have a client that is requesting to be able to dial directly to the speakerphone (intercom) of another phone. We know that we can configure an intercom button on the phones to do that, but if there are 20 phones in the office, the receptionist would have to have an additional 20 buttons just for that purpose. Is there a key combination that can be pressed before dialing the extension that will do the same thing? Ex: 6101 would automatically go to the voicemail of extension 101.
    We currently use CCA and CME. Yep, UC5xx. Phones are SPA509G. I can dial directly to voicemail, but my question is regarding dialing directly to speakerphone/intercom. Does this help clear things up?

    You will need to configure additional ephone-dn (these can be single line), configured as intercom, You can assign these as overlay to the main DN.
    Note: I have no idea if that is possible with CCA. No issue with CLI.

    Firstly make sure you have enabled Siri. Go to settings>general>Siri and turn on, may sure you complete the My Info etc.  Also go to settings>general>restrictions and turn Siri on there. 
    To use Siri press the home button to speak, you can also 'raise to speak' but be sure you enable that in settings>general>Siri>Raise to Speak and turn on.
    Finally, have a look here for more help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4992
