When you use applications such as the Voice Dialer or other messaging type applications, the application needs to know which information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example, when you say Call John Smith, if you have three phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is looking for the default number or entry.
The Mark as default option marks one entry in a contact record to use as the default. This comes in handy when you have multiple entries for the same person.
- From the Home screen, tap Contacts icon.
- Tap a Contact entry.
- Press Menu key and then tap Mark as default. The Mark as default screen displays radio buttons next to the contact name, phone number, or other contact information.
- Tap the radio button next to the entry information you want to be the primary information (such as name, phone number, or email) and select Done.
Note: If there are multiple phone numbers assigned to an entry, assigning one as the default will automatically dial that number when the contact is selected for dialing.
