1# will call your voice mail
0# will call your last dialled number - also this is a faster way to get into call list.

now if you rearrange your SIM position of numbers you will call frequently to positions 2 to 9, then press 2# to 9# to access hot numbers.

to rearrange SIM position - Contacts -> Folders -> SIM phonebook -> select the entry -> edit contact -> change the SIM position to free position.

About 0#.

Isn't it faster to go into call list by pressing call list? Or you can click the scroller bar. Goes into call list too.

And... if you click the scroller bar long enough. You will go into voice dial. That is, if you have voice dials for your contacts.

i could not repeat this operation. what scroller bar - where is it ? do you mean with flip-open ? it is also interesting about voice dialling.

would be great, if u could elaborate a bit more ...
thanks.

sorry not the scroller bar. I meant the jog dial.

Pressing the jog dial lets you go into call list.

Pressing the jog dial for 2 to 3 seconds lets you go into voice dial mode.

Now if you don't have any voice dials yet, here's what you do.

Go to one of your contacts. Tap to edit it. There's a Voice Balloon between the PICTURE tab and the RETURN tab. Choose which contact number of the person you want to attach a voice dial.

Ex. - Office phone number of your wife.

Press record.

Speak after the tone. Ex: "LOVE".

Press done.

You've set a voice dial for one of your contacts.

When you press the JOG DIAL for 2-3 seconds. Wait for the tone and say "LOVE" (or whatever word you gave for the voice dial). A repeat of your "VOICE" will confirm the person you're calling and will dial the number you've chosen.

Pressing on the OK button for 2-3 seconds with flip closed will give you the same effect as the JOG DIAL

ur right about pressing jog-dial to go to call list - but, that's only because at the begining, in flip-closed mode the jog-dial is positioned at call list - had it been positioned to another application like contacts, pressing jog-dial would invoke contacts.
