Cannot add pauses in phone numbers - Treo Forums

csmithi2 · 03-03-2005, 09:42 PM

I just bought a Treo 650, and I am trying to add a phone number with a pause. I have used Nokia's i nthe past, so I have no idea how to do this. I found several references to using commas (,) as pauses, but the phone seems to be ignoring them when it dials.

Did you place a check mark in "dial extra digits automatically"?

I even tried unchecking it to see if I would get a prompt, and that doesn't work either.

Are you trying to do this from a speed dial entry because that is the only way.

takephOne is a great little softare from shsh.com
You can try it free for 30 days and if you like your treo you'll love it!!
You can insert pauses, chain dial, etc. :eek:

I thought what you did when I first got my treo - I finally figured out the main difference is that a comma to everyone else is about 2 seconds, on the treo it is about 250mS. Just put a bunch of commas in there and it will pause the tones.
