Default Saving a new number

Say a person that is not in my contact list calls me on my XDA, although I can see the number in the phone application, I cannot just copy it or easily create a new contact using the number unless I write it down on paper first, a bit of an oversight by MS or am I missing something?

you can do it by going into call history and pressing and holding with the stylus on the number you want to save.

And what to do if I want to add the number to an existing contact?
Is there a solution?

Thanks in advance for the answer,

Think you are stuck unless there is some third party software that can do it.

Hi all,

@Urosh:
Just create a new contact the way junglejim discribed, open this new contact, mark the number, press and hold pen, copy the phone number to the other contact. Thats all. Without using a paper to write the number down.

Perhaps it is a long way to get there, but it works.

Greetings, Kaputter :shock:

How about; press-and-hold, then select 'send sms', then copy from 'to' field into your existing contact.

Still a bit long, but getting there!
