Bug Description
When I push the Emergency button the phone dialing screen appears but I have to mark the number.
In a critical situation it would be better if you had previously put it.
Each user should manually put the number of the region he is going to be in.

I see this bug as a chance to make it better than any other device did it before. In Poland You have 997 for the Police, 998 for the fire department and 999 for an ambulance. Calling the 112 is not the very best option not only in Poland but also in Germany. If You need to call the Police in Germany and You call the 112 they will tell You to call 110 (no, it is not a joke).
What I found interesting about this bug in my Krillin was that I could call:112,110,999 but I couldn't call 998,997 or 911. I must say I was amazed that 999 worked and here comes my question:
HOW CAN WE EDIT/ENABLE OR DISABLE THE EMERGENCY NUMBER THAT WE REALLY NEED? I used already several times 110 in Germany and 112 only once as they didn't want to talk with me:-)
I think it would be great to be able to dial an emergency number with a one click on a button with number that we previously set and that we would be able to set there ANY number, cause I think no developer is able to foresee which country my E4.5 is going to visit with me.
112 is good for EU but I'm not sure if it is going to work in Ukraine/Belarus etc. 112 in Poland was useless long years after we joined the EU which was several times reported by the media.
Give the power to the users. Do not copy uncustomizable solutions which are as old as Nokia 3210.
