[Bug 1474435] Re: "Smart dialing" is not supported

 

Just leaving some notes here for people who'll work on this: it seems
that a similar feature was implemented at point, but it was then removed
(I don't know the reason, sorry).

The revision which disabled the contacts search functionality in the dialer screen is

Hope this helps

Title:
  "Smart dialing" is not supported

Status in dialer-app:
  New
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  New
Status in dialer-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Android, Windows phone, and older platforms (meaning, everywhere
  but iOS and apparently Jolla) you can  use the T9 letters in the
  dialer app to type the beginning of names and get suggested phone
  numbers.

  For example, if "Mom" is a contact, then typing 66 will suggest
  contacts that start with / contain "mo", even if the number doesn't
  include 66.

  I swear that Mom being 666 in this context is purely a coincidence, my
  mom is a perfectly lovely person :-)
