Ok,
So there was a couple times i wanted to copy a persons phone number from my contacts so i could txt message it to someone but, i cant do it. i guess i can send a name card but i'd rather be able to copy the contacts phone number. I try long pressing the number, but no luck. Any tips on how to do this?
 
Go into your contacts, find the contact who's number you want to copy and press on their name. Then press menu>edit, then long press on the phone number and select copy all.
 
That works... Hope they do something so we can just long press from the contact screen and copy number
 
You can always just dial the number, end the call before it actually goes through or begins to ring, then tap on the center, green, phone/call/send icon when using the dialer and copy the number from the text entry box there. Tapping the icon when you haven't entered anything is essentially hitting re-dial, so the number that you just attempted to call shows up.
 
you can also send that call as a business/contact card, that should send the name, number and other info you have in a mms. If they are right beside you and so equipped, the bump app is kinda cool
