Calling someone- FAVORITES

[urbantea]

Annoying feature on this droid, when I press "CALL" and i presse " FAVORITES" and I choose the name of my friend, instead of just CALLING, it gives me 3 options

1. call
2. text
3. whats app

WHY can't it just CALL? IF I WANTED TO text them, I WOULD go into the TEXTING feature of my phone, if i wanted to whats app them, i would just WHATs app them

can i fix this, so that these 3 options dont pop up and to make it just CALL??

Instead of tapping on the name just slide the name of the favorite from left to right; it should call automatically.

tried that, doesnt work.

sliding on the name from L to R, takes me to the left screen, which is the calling tab....

Which Android version is your phone using? Does it have a custom ROM installed?

 

[urbantea]

says 4.0.4

sony xpera V

It looks like Sony has installed something called Quick Contacts which is automatically enabled Quick Contacts is supposed to save you some clicks but it does exactly what you've been describing. Try getting to your Contacts settings and turn off Quick Contacts.

In the dialer app, "Favorites" try this... Hold down on the contact for about 3 seconds, mine (Droid Razr Maxx) dials them immediately instead of giving me any options. I do not have whats app installed though. Might be worth a shot. ;-)
