N97 mini phone number layout ?

3 replies · 6,236 views · Started 06 March 2010

Hello

I have a Nokia N97 mini bought in US but I�m using it down here in Brazil. I�d like to know how I can configure the dialer to show the dialed numbers in "brazilian layout" (4-digit prefix numbers) instead of USA layout (3-digit prefix numbers).

Thanks !

More info on the subjetc:

1) If I change the product code to 0585510 (Brazil) and update the firmware I get the proper behavior on the phone dialer (simple plain phone number format with no spaces added) but I then get the wrong keyboard layout;

2) If I change the product code to 0584971 (US) and update the formware I get the correct keyboard layout but the wrong phone dialer behavior (spaces added to format the phone number into "american" XXX XXX XXXX way)

Is there a way to tweak the firmware files in order to either keep the US keyboard layout on the BRAZL firmware or to keep the phone dialer behavior on the US firmware?

Thanks for any help.

Maybe get a Brazilian keyboard fixed in ?
I use E90 and prefer spaces in the phonenumbers . The E90 won't let me by default , unless I use this manual workaround :
1) type in the phonenumber , including spaces , in a alphabetical line like e.g. "Name"
2) copy the number
3) paste it to the phonenumber line .
Hopefully you can use this workaround the other way around , so without the spaces ?

This suggestion does not solve the display of incoming phone number calls... THis is annoiyng for any country outside USA and this should not be hardcoded on the firmware. It should at least be tied to the country the phone is roamed to at that moment!!
