Before 3.0.3.9 (xperia x) i was able to paste (or enter) extra characters (like p) together with the phone number in the phone app using the pulley menu "Enter phone number". My use case is to use a dial string with dtmf codes and delays.

Now this is not possible in the Phone app anymore. However it is possible in the People app. The keyboard layouts for entering the phone number in the two apps are different. Why?

Is this some improvement in the Phone app? Looks like a bug to me.

Update 23.05.2019

It seems that in the phone app there is a new length limit on the dial string. Paste works also with p characters.

Hi I just check it on my Jolla 1 and it's possible to enter 'p' in Phone app. You just need to triple tap on '*' symbol.
