E52 How set default SMS number per Contact?

Does anybody find the way how to set default SMS number per Contact?
Everytime I have to choose a number from many stored in current contact. Missed I something or E52 missing this feature (as many other things)?

I'am getting so sick and tired of this wastrel ... oh sorry... phone.

Re: E52 How set default SMS number per Contact?

I assume you have many numbers under one contact name and when u select them in messaging a pop up asks you which number to select.

 

In that case go to Contacts->select contact with many nos->Options->Defaults->Msg.number/address->select the no u want.

 

I hope i am correct and it helps.

Yes, it works. But only if I get to create a new message trough menu. Menu -> Messages -> New messages -> Message.
I assigned the Mail buttons action to create new sms message. If i start new sms this way than is default number ignored and I have to choose number manually.

I have also found, that there is a different way to insert text template to the message. It depends on the manner how i create new sms message (menu / button).

Re: E52 How set default SMS number per Contact?

Yes,I have noticed that if you set 'new sms' to the one touch keys it does not recognize the defaults on contacts.

Must be a bug or just no brain in nokia developers.

 

As a workaround assign create new sms to any key direction on Dpad.In that case defaults work, BUT u have to come to home screen always to create a sms.

Such a shame, so stupid bug. Nokia does't know the meaning of the "beta testing" or how to do it. So users are betatesters.
