zellow Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Dear all, I was just wondering if it is just me or everybody. I find the phonebook very hard to use, especially while driving. I would say i have a lot of contracts in my Phone with several numbers to each contract. So i have to scroll to the list trying to find the Person i want to call. It would be much nicer if there was a box where you can type a couple Letters of the name (first OR last) using the on screen keyboard and it displays the matching Contacts. I am working in the IT Department at a Chemical Company, but I am new to the Avic, I have done some Web Programming as well as Visual Basic. So i guess i would be able to figure it out. Does anybody know if there is something like described out there yet or is there a general info guide with the first steps what i need to make modifications you could recomand for me? Thank ya'll zellow Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank ya'll zellow I'm no help in the programming of a search function, but what I have done to make dialling out easier is to change my 6 most used numbers in my phone to start with numbers so that they appear on the first page. IE I just rename them 1_Fred & 2_Sue 3_John etc in the phone. This also then works when I use the phone with our other car which has an OEM Bluetooth system, which again puts these at the top of the list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
