| Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 4/16/12 9:12 AM | Hello, I have the Galaxy Nexus and several times (all on different occasions) I will click on a contact to call a specific person, but instead of calling the number I touched it precedes to call a different contact in my list. At first I thought I |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | Paul | 4/16/12 3:01 PM | That does sound odd. I don't recall ever hearing of someone mentioning this issue before. Do you have any dialing applications or contact management applications installed on your phone that were created by a third party (meaning, not the original st |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 4/16/12 9:44 PM | Hi Paul, Thanks for the quick response. I don't have any other contact management applications installed at all. I am using whatever the phone comes with. (I have also tried factory resetting the phone). |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | Paul | 4/17/12 9:50 AM | Thanks for the additional info. A couple more questions: Are you experiencing this problem when you launch the Phone app then use either the call log or the contact list there? Or are you calling from the People app? Are you only experiencing problem |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 4/17/12 12:00 PM | The problem is only occurring when I launch the phone app and use the call log/ contact list there. I don't use the People app at all actually. To my recollection I have never experienced the problem in any other situation (such as opening an app o |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 4/17/12 12:08 PM | AH HA! I may have just had a piece of info that may help you to diagnose the problem. If I go to the Phone App and click on the Contact button in the top right corner (that little person icon). The screen appears with frequently called contacts li |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | Paul | 4/17/12 1:48 PM | OK, good clue with the frequently called info. Let's try clearing the data on that app. To do so, follow these steps: - Make a note of your Phone app settings by opening the Phone app, then tapping the menu in the lower right corner and selecting Set |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 4/17/12 6:35 PM | I tried the steps above, however after clearing the data it did not clear the frequently called list. It remained listed on the screen. I thought maybe I was supposed to clear the app Phone / Messaging Storage, but when I select that one it will no |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | Paul | 4/18/12 3:14 PM | Sorry spclk, I thought those were saved under the Phone app. For the Phone/Messaging Storage app I believe you have to hit the Force stop button before you can clear data there. Clearing your message storage will remove any text messages you've got o |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | spclk | 5/2/12 10:39 AM | So the only thing that I think ended up working (so far) was to delete the contacts that were experiencing this problem and reinstalling them in my contacts. HOWEVER, now every time I charge my phone it a) clears my frequently called list and b) and |
| Re: Galaxy Nexus Dials wrong number from Contacts | Paul | 5/4/12 11:40 AM | This is still sounding quite odd, spclk, and I haven't ever run across anyone else experiencing anything like this before.
