Dialing by contact name

You need to have names and numbers in
your contact list before you can make a call
by contact name or phone number. You can

add contacts directly into your Centro (see
Adding a contact), but the fastest way to
enter lots of contacts is to enter them in
your desktop software and then
synchronize to transfer them to your
Centro (see Synchronizing information—
the basics
). You can also import contacts
from your SIM card (see tips on Viewing
your SIM Phonebook).

tab.

of the following for the contact you
want to call:

First name (JOH for John)

Last name (SMI for Smith)

First initial and last name (JSM for
John Smith)

First few letters of first and last name
(SM AN for Smilla Anderson)

For example, entering SM would display
Smilla Anderson, John Smith, and
Sally Martin. Entering JSM finds only
John Smith.

TIP

After you enter a phone number, you can

also press Center on the 5-way to select
whether to make a phone call or send a text
message to that number.
