Help Primary phone number is not default

I am having issues with the primary and secondary phoen number for my contacts. I want my friend's mobile number to be the primary one, or the one that clicking the name gets dialed. When I look at teh contact info the primary number is the mobile (what I want). When I click the phone thing and click their name from teh last call I made (to their mobile number) it always calls the home number for the contact.

Is anyone else having this issue? Do I just need tomake a seperate contact for the home number?
 
Hi fujiteam,

I've just noticed this problem today as some of my text messages were not getting sent. If I have 2 numbers for one person then when I type in their details it brings up the lowest number first, not the primary number. For example, Australian mobile numbers are 040xxxxxxxx and landlines can start with 02xxxxxxxx. So even though the mobile number is primary I found that it always brought up the lower number 02xxxxxxxx first. Have you had any luck finding a solution? I just have to keep landline numbers which start below 04 in the notes section now so the mobile number comes up first when texting.
