Method and Apparatus for Storing Phone Number, and Method and Apparatus for Dialing Phone Number

A communications terminal, comprising:

• a display;
• one or more processors coupled to the display;
• and
• a memory coupled to the one or more processors and stores a plurality of application programs and one or more programs,
• wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and are configured for execution by the one or more processors,
• wherein the one or more programs comprise an instruction, and
• wherein the instruction causes the one or more processors to be configured to:
• obtain, from a number record of a called party, root-level number information of the called party, number information of sub-levels 1 to j, and a relationship between the root-level number information and the number information of sub-levels 1 to j, wherein the root-level number information is a unified access number of the called party, wherein the sub-level j number information is information entered by a user according to a jth input prompt of the called party when the called party is successfully called for a first time, and wherein j is determined by a preset rule or user selection and is less than or equal to a total quantity of sub-levels in the number record;
• call the called party for a second time according to the root-level number information;
• and
• send, according to a relationship between the root-level number information and sub-level i number information, the sub-level i number information corresponding to an ith input prompt of the called party after the second time call succeeds, wherein i≧1, and wherein i≦j.

A method for storing a phone number, comprising:

• obtaining, by a communications terminal, a unified access number after a called party is successfully called for a first time according to the unified access number entered by a user;
• setting the unified access number as root-level number information;
• obtaining information entered by the user according to an nth input prompt when the nth input prompt from the called party is received;
• setting the information entered by the user according to the nth input prompt as sub-level n number information, wherein n≧1;
• and
• saving the root-level number information, the sub-level n number information, and a relationship between the root-level number information and the sub-level n number information as a number record of the called party such that when the called party is called for a second time, a corresponding sub-level number information in the number record is automatically sent to the called party according to an input prompt of the called party.
