Make Calls From Message Threads

Regard From Sweden

I love the phone, I've had it almost a week now and the communication possibilities are endless.  My job just got so much easier. Today however, I received an SMS from someone and then I was going to try to call them and realized that I could not do it. On my old Android, all I had to do was swipe the message. But that did not work here. I have been searching in Google and here under the following titles:

 

“Make calls from message threads”

“Ring from SMS”

 

I have found nothing. Part of the problem is always coming up with the right search words. Surely one should be able to dial the number of a recieved SMS Thread  without having to memorize the number.  I also have had the problem of being unable to send longer SMS/Chat messages but I shall try turning off the WiFi as some have met with success with that measure

 

My last problem is with Nokia’s City Lens. It worked fine the first 3 days that I had it, but now it won’t go past the Figure 8 page.

 

Happy to report that battery life gets better and better with every charge. It's fun to be a telephone pioneer, I'm happy to be at the forefront for once instead of at the back. All my Iphone friends gawked at the new phone saying "What is that?"

Hi ses312,

 

 To call someone from the messaging app just tap their name on the top of the screen whilst in the thread and then select Call mobile or whatever other number you have stored for this contact from the next screen that appears.

Thanks, I actually figured it out right after I hit the send button. But I still am at a loss as to what happened to my City Lens

Figured out the City Lens problem too. I have the phone i a Black Vegan Folio Wallet Case  even though the lens and camera are not covered by the case, the remainder of the backside is covered by a black plastic cóver. City Lens works out of the case, but not in it.
