Can you "Prepend" on Touch or other WM devices

[b727pilot]

Got a question that I have been searching all over for:

I miss having the Prepend function of my old phone (A900m). How do (or can) you prepend with the HTC Touch. I used to use *67, *82 and 11 (to go directly to voicemail) and can't find this option on my touch or a program that will allow me to do this. The A900 and my wife's Razr both have this option to select prepend and add the above to the number and dial it. I have looked but can't find a way to do it.

I was looking at a way to do this from either missed calls or recent calls or anywhere other then having to reenter the entire number. I figured since my other "non-smart" phone had it then this "smart" phone would also.

I do realize that I can manually enter the numbers in, but I don't remember phone numbers anymore with a phone book on a phone. Looking for an easy way to just enter the numbers in front of a stored number. Hope that makes sense.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!

press and hold the number one on the dialpad and that will take you to your voicemail.

Hahaha Yea that's the easy one. I am looking to add say *67, *82 ect in front of the numbers that I have either called or calls that I have missed. I like using *67 for work sometimes and the 11 in front of a number to get into someones (Sprint) voicemail is great if I really only want to leave someone a msg and not necessarly talk to them.

"Dumb Phone" had it but "Smart Phone" doesn't. Well atleast that I can tell. I've asked around but no luck. I am guessing that I would need sometype of program to do it since the phone doesn't come with it.

Hello,

I recently found a couple of programs that will kind of do what I am looking for. I am not able to prepend a number that is either a missed call or a recent call. You can only use with numbers stored in contacts. Unless someone has any ideas on how to tweak the programs. The programs I found in case anyone else is interested is....

Hope this can help someone else out.
