[INFO] Advanced Contact Search in A1200 already exists.

great discovery pal... you're a true discover... never noticed that in spite of spending countless hours with the fon.

wow, wow. I am overwhelmed by the responses with this original post. and also surprised to see many of us never noticed it. I myself was in shock to see this feature, which I thought never existed in ming.

Dunno why they used word "MORE" for this useful feature. I dont agree with this word, should have been "SEARCH MORE" or "SEARCH ADVANCED". With this word its totally hidden.

Most numbers we remember by first and last 3 or 4 digits and are always confused with middle part of phone number. this feature helps a lot, now we can find numbers faster. I was using pc to do this type of search. Thanks a lot all of you for responses. he he he. will post more if I find any. Or is it last discovery?

Wonderful discover, ...I have a "related" question, how can I create a contact from a number of an incoming call, or an answered call?, the only way that I can do it it's to memorize the number and create it, but it seems so hard, if you have few "RAM" on your head..., U understand....

u can easily store the number, here's the sequence..

1.go to CALLS (through menu)
2.select the type (dialled,missed or answered)
3.select the number u want to store.(if u go to CALLS from the DIALPAD,<clicking on the button above 1>,this step will dial the number).
4.from OPTIONS select store.(store option is not displayed for contacts already stored).


hope it helps.

Of course it helped. Thanks a lot on behalf of all for making this thread more informative. I already have been using this method since long time, but thought everyone must be knowing it.
