Okay here is the challenge....
I used Dukto to transfer some text from my pc to my Nokia N8 . The text contained mobile numbers, email address and contact names directly from a webpage on facebook.
I then copied the data from the Dukto application on the phone to the standard notes application section on the phone, so far so good!
Today I wanted to call one of the mobile numbers within the data copied. So I tried highlighting the text and then long press to perhaps give me a call option, that didn't work, okay next tried highlighting the text and then seeing if I could copy/paste it.
So okay so far so good we now have it copied to the clipboard. I don't particularly want to create a contact i just want to call that number as a one off event.
So i then go to the normal CALL application and see if i can copy it into the data bar..no such luck!
Okay can't do that looks like i will have to go to the hassle of creating a contact just to call the number! Okay so i am in contacts I go straight to the mobile phone field and then hit the button that gives me the copy/paste option and guess what??? its not there!
I then jump out of that field and select the Name field..guess what? Copy/paste is enabled there which is not much use is it!
So in the end I gave up and had to write the flipping number on a piece of paper and then manually dial it.
Is that a definition of a smartphone or have I missed something!! 😊
