Contact verification before dialing - Android Auto General

When using the microphone in android auto to call a contact using voice (assistant), I want to verify that the right contact was recognized. As for now, it dials immediately and sometimes I am not sure the right contact was chosen (especially if the language is not English).
Is there a setting for this - so google assistance will ask if the contact is correct?
BTW:
if a contact has a line and a mobile number attached to it, it asks "call line or mobile". In this case I can verify if it is the right contact. But this is only a workaround and I am not going to insert a dummy line number for every contact I have
Thanks in advance.

Odd situation with Text Messages

I'm new to PDA Phones, so this may not be Tilt/Kaiser related.
When I send text messages (by going to the contact list, tapping the person's name, and then tapping "send text message") to anyone, they get it without any problems. But when I go to them in the "sent" text messages folder, EVERY text message displays my brother's contact right below after the "To:" (with the correct contact) and "date:" (with the correct info). It shows my brother's contact as if he was the sender.
Why would this be. What can I do?

Have you got your own number listed as brother in your contacts?
Wiggy
maybe you have his old phone number or something...
edit: and you still have it in your contact list
Got it,
Thank you very much guys. How dumb of me!
I listed my number in my brother's contact (the difference between his number and mine is 1 number).
Thanks again.

DTMF

Please any body know of any dailer app that can send numbers automatically as dtmf string i.e to make international call using prepaid card I have to write down the phone number then input it manually after entering the card pin. Most mobiles have this funtion but not Winmo.
Do you mean you want a app thats creates sound out of the speaker in DTMF off a contact??
If you need that i have a contactmgr plugin for that!
(Sorry for my bad englisch)
scenario: I have a prepaid phone card to make an international call. The card has an access number and pin. To make a call, i must first dial the access number, enter the pin after the voice prompt then lastly my destination phone number. I dont want to key-in each number seperately. I want a dialer that would permit me through pop-up menu to search for destination number in contact list then another pop-up menu with option to send number or contact found as DTMF. Most mobiles and cordless phones have this function why not winmo?

Contact and SMS Questions

is there any way to save new contact directly to sim not phone? right now, it only allows me to save to phone only...then, i have to copy it to sim and delete phone contact.
is there any way for me to just enter my contact name when i send sms instead of going into my contact list(showing sim contact only) and select them. i mean when i type them in, it doesn't work. it says "invalid contact".
for example, i have a contact name "John1" on my contact list but when i type "John1", it doesn't work, when i select "John1" from contact list, it works.
thx in advance.
I don't think there is...

[Q] Contacts with or without country code?

I am on Overcome 1.6.1 and i have this issue with the contacts.
when someone calls me, say John 98765432 his name will appear if i save his contact according as John 98765432. but when he smses me, his name will not appear when i use ChompSms(3rd party sms application), his number with the country code +65 98765432 will appear instead.
if i save his number with the country code, the opposite occurs. when he calls i can't see his name but when he sms i can see his name.
anyone with the same problem?
same issue on htc desire and no proper fix till now!! that's amazing!

[APP] A multiple account Google Voice dialer app

Hello,
I've loosely based this app off of supbro's app for the 6.5 Windows system (iContact, iDialer). I didn't use his code but I did want this program to perform the function that I mainly wanted: The ability to pick and choose which Google Voice account I wanted to use to dial a number with.
If you're interested in checking this out, I've attached the xap for it. Thanks.
May 02, 2011 - 7:40pm CST - Updated the application to include a restore settings button and other changes to enable fields incorrectly disabled.
I've been waiting for something like this. I'll install it when I get home and post my thoughts later tonight.
I couldn't figure out how to use this. Is it utilizing the calling card method of dialing or something? It wouldn't let me select my GV number on the GV Info pivot.
I was thinking it would be an easy way to get to a dialer that would utilize GV direct dial but I don't think this is really what I was looking for.
thesecondsfade,
Yes, it utilizes the calling card method of dialing the number through your google voice account so that the google voice number shows up on the other person's callerid.
I didn't implement a select from the contacts list of the Google voice number on the GV Info pivot screen. Rather, you have to type in the number using the numeric pad and input the pin that Google Voice prompts you for when you access your account. After you've placed both the Google voice number and the pin, then you can select the radio button for that account.
As far as I know, GV direct dial only works with the accounts that you can specify the phone number with. Currently, you can only use a phone number with two different accounts. The calling card method is the only one that I know of to use one cell phone number with three or more different accounts.
