Long press speed dial from any screen

[adjmcloon#IM]

The main thing I miss from my Palm Pre is the ability to long press a button and speed dial a contact from any screen. I don't like having to unlock the phone, then go into the phone app, then press the button.

Does anyone know of an app or mod that will allow you to instantly dial a contact just by pressing an assigned button? My Pre would do this, even if the phone was locked.

U can always long press anywhere on your home screen, and select direct dial, choose ur number and voila! From a lockd screen u would have to unlock the screen and select the shourcut to ur phone number

I ended up going with lockmenu pro. Not exactly what I needed, but I like that I can direct dial from my lock screen with a slider. The ability to launch apps and message direct is nice, and actually an improvement over just direct dialing from a long press of a button.
