- Rather than manually entering a person's extension number, there is a way to automatically have your Android dial the connection once the call connects.
- First, go to Contacts. If you want to create a new contact, tap the menu key and then tap New contact. Otherwise, long-press on the contact you want to add extension info for and tap Edit contact.
- In the phone numbers section, either select the phone number that you want to add extension information to or add a new number.
- Now, press the symbols key in the lower-left of the keypad. You'll notice the buttons Pause and Wait here. Pause inserts a two-second pause while Wait will wait until the call connects.
- Insert a Wait after the phone number. Now, press the numbers key and enter the extension that you'd like to dial.
- Some phone systems require that you enter a number before entering the extension. For example, if you need to press 1 before entering an extension, then you'll need to add a 1 and then a Pause after your Wait.
- Now when you call your contact, you'll be asked whether you want to use the tones that you entered for that contact.
