A silly question.......

I know the Ace 2 is much more than just a phone, but how on earth do you make a call?? Can't work out how to dial a new or one-off number that is not in my contact list!! Anyone.. ??

Ha, ha. I'm not laughing at you, just your sentiment as to how much "phone calls" have been minimezed on these things. Just gave me a chuckle.

Anyway, when you click the phone icon (should be in the dock bar) there are three tabs across the top. From right to left they are contacts, recent calls, and finally on the left, the dialer where you can push buttons and dial a damn phone number. I've had several androids and this is how they all worked. It should be the same or similar for yours.

Thanks for the quick reply. I couldn't believe I was asking the question as I typed it!!
Had the phone for a few weeks & needed to dial a new number for the 1st time, haha.
Found it where you said, but I have 4 tabs & had to swipe the top bar sideways & there it was, a cheeky little dialpad keyboard hiding away!! Thanks for the help & maybe my embarrassing question will save somebody else from asking...??
