[Solved] Calling issue from the Call Log P10 Lite

On all my previous Huawei devices (Ascend P6, G7 and P9 Lite) with various iterations of EMUI, when I went into the call log, I would press on one of the entries, and it would automatically dial the number of the contact.
On my P10 lite (WAS-LX1C02B120), when I press on a call log entry, it opens the "Edit before call" screen, so I need to press the call button in order to call my contact. I have checked in the call settings for a way to turn this off, but I couldn't find anyway to change this.

Is this new behaviour from EMUI 5.1 and up normal, or is this a bug? I'm really hoping it's the latter, and that it will be fixed in a firmware update. If not, then I hope there will be an option to turn this behaviour on or off, since I find it a bit tedious, especially since EMUI 5.1 is supposed to be more intuitive, using less steps to do various actions. :confused:

I would prefer not using a third-party dialer, so am hoping for a solution to this.

EDIT: I've solved the problem! After doing a factory reset, restoring my backup, and still having the issue, I uninstalled each and every one of my apps, to check which app what causing it. It turns out it's my RCS+ messaging option that causes this bug! Disabling this option fixes the issue!

Ok, so I have no idea what changed, but it seems to be working as expected now. I had no updates, and I definitely didn't change any settings! It's the craziest thing! [emoji848]

Anyway, I'll see if it changes again.

I just tried to make a call from my call log, and it's doing the same thing as before, where I need to press the green dial button before it makes the call! It's so frustrating!! :(

First of all, I noticed that I was able to make a call directly from the call log, immediately after a restart, but a few seconds later, it would go to the "Edit before call" screen, which made me realise that it had to be one of my apps that are loading in the background. Anyway, long story short, it's fixed now! I don't use RCS anyway, so I'll just keep it disabled until it gets fixed. :good:
