LG G4 bridge conference calling from Calendar

I just converted over from my HTC One to LG G4. I have my conference bridge-line and id stored in my contacts (888-888-8888,,,,8888888# as an example) and it works fine. However, similar numbers stored in Calendar objects do not properly maintain the pauses (commas) when linked to the phone app. How do I get my Calendar and Phone app to play nice together so this works?

Interesting question... personally I use Calengoo for my main calendar app, as it has outstanding Exchange capabilities, and I thought I'd see (based on your question) if Calengoo would have the same issue.

Check out this post from another site: https://calengooandroid.uservoice.c...phone-numbers-email-addresses-clickable-in-ap

I just tried it out in Calengoo, placing the phone number (with pauses) in the Description field, and lo and behold it did not work.

There's also this post from reddit: Calendar App with Conference/Pause Dial support : androidapps -- Again it seems like this is something that many calendar apps do not support.

Very disappointing, given I've had this capability for years having been an HTC EVO and then HTC One customer.

The latest version of calengoo can now do this with an extra calengoo plugin extension. (I haven't tested, but the release notes for version 1.0.161 say it's now supported.)
