Dialing Shortcuts?

[dex4]

I am looking at getting a Photon. I work at a very big corporation as a contractor and use my personal phone for work.

What I am looking to do is to add dialing shortcuts to the android phone dialer. Most of the phone numbers I dial have the first 5 digits the same and at my company the first 6 digits are the same. So if I want to call someone I just need to dial the last 5 or 4 digits of the phone number.

I have tried 5 different dialers in the app back when I had the Evo shift and there was no option for this.

So I picked up a photon and so far I like it, but it would really help if anyone can help me out with this.

if you go to the dialer and dial the last four digits of a number in your contact list, a shortcut will pop up just above the dialed number.

Just to add to that, the dialer will bring up whatever it begins to recognize. You can dial their name or any part of their number.

Thanks guys but not looking at dialing by contacts.

Although I was trying to add a contact and use a symbol for the last 4 or 5 digits to indicate wildcards, but couldn't figure it out.

I sent a requests off to some of the phone dialer app devs for this feature.
