1041733 - placing a call from the messages app opens the callscreen without placing the call

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1032273

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::SMS, defect)

Description

When I place a phone call from the messages app, it opens the dialer without actually dialing the number.  My expectation from other parts of the UI is that it dials the number.

Steps to reproduce:
 1. open messages app
 2. tap on the messages from a particular contact
 3. tap on that contact's name at the top of the window
 4. tap on the "Call" button

Expected results: call is placed

Actual results: dialer is opened with phone number typed in, but call not placed


I'm running master from sometime last week; I could give more precise build info if needed.

Yeah, this is like this since the start because we use an activity and we don't want that any activity client can dial.

The new idea is to use directly the telephony API from the Messages app.
