CHAPTER 7: Making Phone Calls
154
Using the Dialer Keypad
The simplest way to make a call is to use the Dialer. The numbers on the screen are
large, so it’s easy to dial a number. Follow these steps to use the Dialer app or Phone
app on the original DROID to make a call:
1. Tap the Dialer icon (see Figure 7–3).
2. If you do not see the keypad to dial, tap the Dialer soft key
at
the top-left portion of the screen.
3. Now you can simply start dialing by tapping number keys.
4. If you make a mistake, press the Backspace key
next to the
window where the numbers appear.
5. If you need to type a Plus (+) sign for an international number, press and
hold the Zero (0 +) key.
6. When you are done dialing, press the green Phone key at the bottom
. If the person you are dialing has a picture attached to his
contact record, you will see the picture appear (see Figure 7–3).
7. When you are done with the call, press the End call key (the Red phone
icon)
.
TIP: Sometimes you have to enter a pause in a phone number for a couple of seconds, then dial
another number such as an extension or a password. You can dial a pause by pressing the Menu
button and selecting Add Pause. You see a comma appear next to the phone number, which
indicates a two-second pause. If you need a wait to be inserted, then press the Menu button and
select Add wait. A wait will pause in dialing and wait for you to tap a button to continue dialing.
