Use iCaller in the app store. It's $.99 and it works great. I have an iphone 5 with ios 6.1.2 and the app works without problems. I highly recommend it and you can't beat the price.

really looking for something that integrates into the stock dialer, that way i dont have to use 1 app for calling and another for voicemail

thanks for the suggestion tho
 
so i did what you said, and now i kind of have search, it will look it up by number but i want to search by name. ie type 5646 and have "john" show up instead of numbers that include 5646

is this an option im just missing?

Tinker with the settings I have keypad enable search turned on anyway both functions of search work for me by name and by number

seems to only let me to do first letter of first name and for letter of last...
ie 53 would bring up John Doe o well ill wait for phone hint or ismartdialer to catch an update
