    Galaxy s3 mini running Jelly Bean 4.1.1

    Can anyone advise how i disable / remove this feature whereby if i touch a contact and slide my finger right it calls them , or if i slide left it texts them?

    ive done it a few times and its now accidently and its getting annoying.
    ive looked through the settings but cant find the option to enable/ disable this feature
    im nearly sure i turned this feature on at some stage while browsing through the menus, but for the life of me i cant get where it is

    any help is REALLY appreciated
    thanks

    Ok, i cant find a setting on my S3. I always thought it was a standard feature and not optional. Someone else may be able to help you though!

    Second that. I think it's a standard feature that can't be toggled on/off

    No I never found a solution so just use a call confirm app so I get "Do you really want to call X".

    Switch contact apps? (sure there's some on Play)
    Or get the GApps one, it doesn't have it, might need root.
