automatically changing international access code

[HTC-HTC]

hi

i am a newbie, and just got my brand new htc desire hd phone...

one of things i couldn't figure out was how to automatically prefix an international dialling access code...

essentially, to make cheap international calls, i want to prefix the phone number with a code (e.g. 018, or 008 or something like that) - this prefix works only for calls, not for SMS, so for international SMS I have to use "+"

what i want to do is to automatically replace the + with a prefix code like 018 when making a call...

is this possible?

Hmm i don't really know if there is a solution for this...
But why don't you just change all the numbers to numbers with + prefixes?? The + prefix works both for calls and SMS messages (national and international)!

all my contacts are prefixed with + already

what i want to do is:
for calls - prefix with 018
for sms - prefix with +

is there a way to do this automatically without having to edit the number each time, because that is very tedious...

Ah I understand what you want to achieve now...
Have a look at this free app : https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tftbelow.prefixer&feature=search_result I haven't tried it myself, but I think it might do the trick!
