Some of you may have used Speed Dial application quite a lot. This posting is a tutorial for you who are not familiar with Speed Dial.
What is Speed Dial? Basically it is a small application that allows you to assign a number, from 2 to 9, to a specific phone number. For instance, you can press long “2″ in the idle screen and the phone will dial the assigned phone number (see picture below).
How to assign Speed Dial? There is an application, called Speed Dial application, which is normally located under Tools folder. Note that different devices may have different folder name. Basically you can assign a phone number to any number from “2″ to “9″. How about number “1″? It is always reserved for voice messaging number.
Besides using Speed Dial application, you can assign it from the idle screen menu as well. Just press long the number you want to assign. If the number has not been assigned to any phone number, the phone will ask you whether you want to assign it or not.
Compatible devices: S60 1st, 2nd, 3rd Edition, Nokia Nseries Nokia Eseries.

“1″ can also be asigned. Just change that voice message number. Well, at least i do, since i don’t use voice messages.

How can I reassign “1″ back to voicemail on my NOkia N73. I bought this secondhand and some joker has set the speed dial number as the speaking clock!!!!!

@Mark: There should be an application called Call mailbox where you can change the number. Normally it is under Tools or Utilities folder.
