Is it possible to edit a number in the phone dial keypad or we have to wait till iOS 12?

I use an iPhone 5c and and i've been waiting for a cursor on the dial pad after every iOS update since I started using an iPhone.
one most annoying thing is realising you omitted a number from a long phone number or a recharge code, you have to clear all and start again.
Check the image below, If you want to insert the number 2, you'll have to clear everything, and start all over.
One more thing is number suggestion or smart dialling; if I wanna call 'Joe' in my contacts, shouldn't I be able to press 5-6-3 to get names suggestions within that number combinations?
Why does Apple want to wait for iOS 12 to do this? Do they ever check other phone OS? I love iPhone but sometimes its hard we have to wait for two years before they introduce some simple feature that already existed.
Just because they're focusing on new groundbreaking features doesn't mean they can't make that possible?
We know its impossible for Apple to put FM radio in the iPhone because they want to sell the iPhone 8 with a new fm radio feature; but a better dial keypad, come on!! Make some upgrade.
My question here is... is it possible for Apple to make the phone dial pad editable aside Copy/Paste options or make it suggest names when u start dialling; or is there a Setting I need to change to make that possible?

Hi ChrisJ4203,
I see you didn't comment on editing the numbers in the keypad, I believe you have that problem too but you forgot to click "I have this question too".
By the way I've sent a couple feedback messages to Apple already and thanks for reminding me, I guess I'll have to be doing that more often.
Enjoy your day

  • Can't find IMEI number on the phone. Screen has broken so I can't access the dial pad.

    I can't find the IMEI number in the phone after following the instruction on how to find it. I found a number on the back of my micro sim card but this website wouldn't accept it.
    The screen has SELF-CRACKED after having used it for 2 months. And yes it genuinely cracked itself. No, it was not dropped. No, I did not go swimming with it.
    I'm trying to get this number so I can send it off to be repaired. For which I am told Sony do this for free for their products that have this problem. You can read about it here:
    WatchDog - Z1 Self-Cracking Phones
    All I want is to send off the phone to be repaired ASAP, but insetad I'm wasting my time having to contact customer services for which none of them give me a clear answer, and have to create accounts and aliases on this site which I never intend to use ever again. It is not my fault or any other consumers fault for the majority of problems that arise in these products, it is the manufacturers fault for distributing such faulty goods. Safe to say, I never intend on purchasing Sony products again, nor recommend these to anyone.

    At the present time, audiobooks are a one-time download and cannot be redownloaded again for free.  You can try contacting the iTunes store to see if they would grant you an exception: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

  • I am asking this for my friend, who was using iphone 4. He lost it one week back and couldnt find it so far. He is having his IMEA number of the phone. Could you please help me in tracing out this?

    I am asking this for my friend, who was using iphone 4. He lost it one week back and couldnt find it so far. He is having his IMEA number of the phone. Could you please help me in tracing out this?

    If he has not previously set up Find My iPhone, there is no way to
    track the iPhone. Apple does not and will not track phones.
    Immediately change all passwords. Hopefully he was using a passcode
    to get by the lock screen. If he was, his data is protected; if not, anyone
    who finds the iPhone can access anything that was on it.

  • I've lost my iPhone 5 How can I have the serial number of the phone Information to be deleted

    Information to be deleted
    Please Please Help Me

    Hi Mohammad,
    I'm sorry that you have lost your phone.
    If you need to erase the personal information on your phone remotely, here are the steps to do that:
    iCloud: Erase your device remotely
    If your device is lost or stolen, you can erase the personal information (such as your contacts, email, and music) and settings on that device to prevent anyone else from seeing or using your information.
    Important:   Before you erase all the information on your device, try to locate it or play a sound on it. After you erase the information on an iOS device, you won’t be able to use Find My iPhone to locate it or play a sound. You may still be able to use Find My iPhone to locate your Mac after you erase it.
    If you erase your iOS device and then find it, you can restore the information on the device using iCloud Backup (if backup was turned on before you erased it) or iTunes. For more information, see the user guide for your device in Safari bookmarks or on the Apple Support website.
    To erase your device remotely, you need to have set up Find My iPhone on the device before it was lost.
    I hope this information helps ...

  • HT4061 how can i find my imei number  without the phone

    how can i find my imei number without my phone but got the origional number

    iTunes on you computer saves this information.
    Open iTunes.
    Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
    Click the Devices tab.
    Position the mouse arrow over the iPhone name to display the numbers including IMEI of the backed-up device.

  • I have a brand new IPhone 4G.  For the life of me, I can't get the phone to ring. I have been in and out of my settings, have disengaged both silent and vibrate.  But when dialing my number from another phone, the call goes direclty into my voice mail

    I have a brand new IPhone 4G.  I can't get it to ring.  I have gone into settings and disengaged vibrate, and have engaged the ring button on side of phone.  But everytime I dial my number from a different phone, it doesn't ring. Rather the call goes directly into my voice mailbox (ogm heard immediately); not even one ring! Please advise

    Well, if it goes to VM immediately the call isn't reaching your phone, so no wonder it isn't ringing. Do you see a network displayed in the upper left of the screen? Have you activated the phone by connecting to a computer with the latest version of iTunes? Have you called your carrier to make sure they have provisioned it correctly?

  • HT1267 How do I find the owner of an iphone I have found But there is no contacts or Cell number of the phone that is the phones cell number and the phone has been suspended and you can't get any information on returning it .

    How can I find the owner of a found phone that  must have been reported stolen but all you want to do is find out who the person is that owns the phone. But you have no idea who the person is who stole the phone in the first place but now you only want to give it back to its rightful owner.

    I found a iPhone 5s, and I'm willing to return to the owner ASAP, but it seems that "he" have not turned on "Find my iPhone".
    Could anyone help me get in touch with the owner, that was probably here for the 2014's World Cup?
    I'm a Brazilian Apple user, and got stolen 6 months ago. I'm fully aware of what it is. Please, don't flood me with the obvious. The law here DOES NOT WORK.
    This owner must get it back, even if I must send it overseas.
    Thank you for the support.

  • Paste phone n° out of email in work environment to the phone dialing pad is not possible

    Hello,
    I am trying to paste a phone number out of an email in my work environment to the dialing pad of the phone.
    When I do that, I receive the error message that I am not allowed to paste work content into a personal application, although I am in the work environment and I have also opened the phone in the work environment.
    When the email recognized the phone number "automatically," I am able to call that number.
    I am using a Z30 with the software release 10.2.1.2102.
    Thank you.
    Regards.

  • How do I disable imessage to a phone number without the phone?

    I switched from my iphone 4 to the galaxy note 3. I love the phone but whenever iphone users text me it is still sending in imessage. This is obviously an issue because a lot of my friends have an iphone still. I have went into my account and disabled all devices on the icloud. I have also turned off imessage on my ipad and my parents imac. When I switched my phones at the store they bought my iphone, so I do not have the option to turn it off on that. I need a solution to where imessages only get sent to my email or just as SMS. I thought that when I switched I would have become unrecognizeable in imessaging, but obviously I thought wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Clyde. I called that number but they told me to go to icloud.com and delete the number while looking at it under Find My iPhone. It didn't change anything. Other iphone users can still send me imessages. Is there a way I can delete my whole account and basically unregister my information from the system?

  • Why is my iphone 4s 64GB serial number on the box different then the serial number on the phone?

    I just purchased a new Iphone 4s 64GB. I brought it to my carrier to have it activated. when I came home to register it with Apple, I noticed that the serial number on the box is different then the serial number on my Iphone. Why?

    When you bought the iPhone, was the box sealed?  Srink wrapped?  If not then the iPhone may have been changed.
    Have you tried to register the iPhone with Apple and does it come up clean, that is, not previously registered?

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • How do i get the serial number for my phone if I do not have it?

    How do I get the serial number for my phone that has been stolen?

    From the box it came in.
    From iTunes if you backed it up to iTunes.
    From the receipt.
    From the retailer if they have those records.
    You can get the IMEI number from your carrier, which is linked to your serial number.

    Does changing the motherboard change the imei number of the phone

    Hi Z33333333,
    Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines. 
    I can advise that Thommo is correct, the IMEI is changed when the Main board is replaced.
