Trouble with creating contacts from texts

[katyw]

Ever since the update was pushed, I can't create a new contact from a text message. Someone texted me that is not a contact and I want to save them as a contact. You used to be able to hold down the number from the text screen and add it here. How can I do this now?

That's weird that it was taken out. If you press the phone icon, and then quickly hang up, you can go into your call log, and add them. Another way would be to use a alternative txt messaging app like Go SMS or Handscent. Which *I would hope* have the feature.

If you press the face icon you will get the option to add to existing or new contact.

Awesome. Thanks

If you press the face icon you will get the option to add to existing or new contact.

When I press the face option I am taken back to the text messaging list (that shows a list of different contact who I have a text conversation with).

I was able to click on the CB#:12345678910 link (it is present in ever text at the bottom right) and add a new contact form there.
