How does Speed Dialling in a mobile work?

Hope all of you may be knowing about speed dialling in a mobile phone? With the help of speed dialling, you need not dial the full mobile number but it is sufficient to dial the short number like 1,2, or 3 to dial frequently used mobile numbers. Speed Dialing is very simple and it is often a little different with phones from different manufacturers.

To speed dial with most of the phones is to just hold down the number for some time. For example if the speed dial number is "6", then you need to just hold down the "7" on your key pad. If the speed dial number is "20" then push "2" and then hold down the "0".

some manufacturers assign the speed dial numbers automatically when you save the contact ( for ex. Motorola). With some manufacturers you need to assign the speed dial number manually to your saved contact ( LG and Nokia work in this way).

On your LG mobile phone, you hit the "Menu" and then "Contacts", then "speed dials". Then the "Speed Dials" screen comes up. Move down to the speed dial number that you want to assign to your contact and click OK. Your contact will now be assigned to that speed dial number.
