Windows Phone - How can I open the standard dial pad?
Simply put, how can I open the dial pad?
Edit
In addition to the accepted answer, the attribute InputScope
in TextBox
can be set to TelephoneNumber
.

It actually seems like it PhoneCallTask
probably doesn't do what you want.
I am not sure if this is actually possible without ringing as per my original version of the answer. However, you could emulate the screen in your own application (you can call TextBox
with InputScope="TelephoneNumber"
, which will only display numbers similar to the built-in dialpad), then use PhoneCallTask
to actually place the call.
You must use PhoneCallTask
to display the dial-up interface.
var phoneCallTask = new PhoneCallTask();
phoneCallTask.PhoneNumber = "";
phoneCallTask.Show();
