making calls from the address book - joe@adelaide - 09-08-2020

I'm have been having lots of fun tinkering with my Postmarket OS edition Pinephone.  I noticed that I am not able to make phone calls from my address book.  Text messages work just fine but not phone calls.  It's a minor nuisance and overall I'm still enjoying the experience.

I found a workaround for this problem.  I can make phone calls from my address book if I add the country and STD codes to the front of my number: +618xxxxxxxx.  This is very odd as I have never had to do this before.  Anyway, I'm glad I got it to work

... I think the dialing 'issue' was covered in a few posts, however that is another item that may have been a good idea to put into a new users guide
somewhere at the top of the forum menu.

+ country code, then area code, prefix then, number :
+1 602 567 7723

(without the extra spaces)
