dial pad

[mindyriggins]

ok the dial pad to call somebody, is there a way to type a letter instead of a number and it bring up a certain contact?

Not if your running stock iOS, but there might be a Cydia tweak that'd have the functionality your describing.

 

[mindyriggins]

ok is there an app i can possibly download?

 

[Darkstar2007]

iSmartDialer is what your looking for.
Here's a link that describes this $3.99 tweak. It has a lot more functionality than what's listed.

You will have to be jailbroken to use this app.

ok thanks i was wanting a free app this isn't actually for me a friend of mine wanted to know about this. he just got the iphone and is wanting it to pull up a certain contact when he presses a letter on the keyboard and he doesn't know how to do it or if it was possible. lol.

 

[mindyriggins]

his phone isn't jailbroken.

 

[Darkstar2007]

If he's running 6.1.3, he can't jailbreak his device. If he is on 6.1.2, 6.1.1, 6.1, etc... He can simply jailbreak his device using the evasi0n tool and buy this app.

Stock iOS simply doesn't have this function.

 

[mindyriggins]

ok yeah he has 6.1.3 on his.

 

[Darkstar2007]

ok yeah he has 6.1.3 on his.

Then he'll have to wait until iOS 7 is released and jailbroken.

 

[mindyriggins]

ok thanks.
