1222733 - Dialer opens to keypad by default rather than the list of contacts

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

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

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

>> Feature Request Summary:
Dialer opens to keypad by default rather than the list of contacts

>> Description of feature, or problem to be solved
Using the Z3C foxfooding device with the latest FOTA/OTA installed (build number: eng.naoki.20151007.074137, build identifier 20151023101519).

STR:
1) Press and hold the home button and close the dialer if it was already running
2) At the homescreen, press the dialer icon

Expected:
The dialer opens to the contacts page, since it's the common case.

Actual:
The dialer opens to the numpad/keypad page instead, and requires an additional key press to switch to the contacts list.

It seems pretty sensible to have the contacts list as default. (Or even better, some recent calls + favourited people + XYZ view similar to Android)

This is bizarre, was the keypad you got the normal dialer keypad (light blue rectangle at the top, white keys)? If that's the case then it might be due to bug 1209536 or bug 1185709 which could both cause this behavior; however both of those bugs should have been fixed in your build. Could you check if you can still reproduce on a recent nightly build?

Oops, that comment should have gone in bug 1222739.
