Marking a Contact as Default
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.
1. From the Contacts screen, tap a Contact entry.
2. Tap
Menu g Mark as default. The Mark as default screen displays radio buttons next to the contact
name, phone number, or other contact information.
3. 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 Save.
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.
