Phone Icon Brings up Contact List

[JamesJoey]

Whe I press the Phone icon on my G2x with Launcher Pro Plus, the contacts list comes up, not the Phone to manually dial. I thought pressing the Phone Icon brings up the phone. I already have an icon that brings up the contact list - Contacts. Why do I need two applications that came with the phone to open the same darn thing?
Any ideas?

I found this isn't occurring with Go Launcher but only with Launcher Pro and LPP.

Reason is simple. You have a third party launcher installed and used. Try to revert back to Android default launcher and see if it behaves the same.

Don't you have tabs for Keypad | Logs | Favorites | Contacts along the top that can be selected? Just press Keypad and I believe that the setting will be remembered.

Check the settings of your dialler. You may have it set to open with the contacts list.

Otherwise try a long press on the launcher icon and replace it with a new link to the dialler.

Or download Any Cut (from Jeff Hamilton) from the play store, make a new shortcut, tap "activity," and choose "Dialler."

This makes a shortcut that always fires up the dialpad tab of the dialler, no matter what tab you were in when you last used it.

Ah. Setting the default launcher to Launcher did the trick.

Thanks,
