Suppress DTMF (or make it optional) when entering destination number

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Pressing keys to enter a phone number to call makes DTMF noises on the
speaker. Since no call is in progress these come out the main speaker at a
much louder than expected volume (the same volume as the phone ringing).

A discreet keyclick would be much more appropriate.

(Also note that playing DTMF is meaningless anyway since that is not the
mechanism used for the call signaling. This is true on mobile phones in
general. I don't know why so much phone software insists on carrying over
the illusion of DTMF dialing from POTS to technologies where it is not
pertinent.)

I assume that fixing this issue is a simple matter of changing
"setPlaysSounds:TRUE" to "setPlaysSounds:FALSE" on the DialerPhonePad in
two places in the source code, although something else may need to be added
in order to get a keyclick instead.

I would provide a patch but it seems that according to issue 209 the source
code available in the subversion repository is out of date.

Did you define the vibrate mode ?

In the next version you can choose to disable the DTMF sound.
The source code is released.
