Trouble adding interactions to cell/smart phones

After a long break in modding I've decided to get back at it, and have been adding some things to my Apartments & Roommates Fix mod. I managed to add a new option to the Roommate Services... menu, but the new option only appears on home phones bought from Buy mode. Just the usual 3 options show up on smart/cell phones. I've tried everything I can think of including specifically adding things like this in OnPreLoad()

Code:

PhoneCell[] cell = Sims3.Gameplay.Queries.GetObjects<PhoneCell>();
            for (int j = 0; j < cell.Length; j++)
            {
                PhoneCell cell2 = cell[j];
                RoommatesFix.AddInteractionsCell(cell2);
            }

            PhoneSmart[] smart = Sims3.Gameplay.Queries.GetObjects<PhoneSmart>();
            for (int k = 0; k < smart.Length; k++)
            {
                PhoneSmart cell3 = smart[k];
                RoommatesFix.AddInteractionsSmart(cell3);
            }

AddInteractions is a custom interaction that adds the interactions to the home phones, but won't work on the smart phones. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

            }

This is how I added new smart phone interactions in my Investment Mod:

Code:

        private static void OnWorldLoadFinished(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (Household.ActiveHousehold != null)
            {
                InitInjection();
            }
            else
            {
                EventTracker.AddListener(EventTypeId.kEventSimSelected, OnSimSelected);
            }
        }
        private static ListenerAction OnSimSelected(Event e)
        {
            if (Household.ActiveHousehold != null)
            {
                InitInjection();
                return ListenerAction.Remove;
            }
            return ListenerAction.Keep;
        }

        private static void InitInjection()
        {
            PhoneSmart[] objects2 = Sims3.Gameplay.Queries.GetObjects<PhoneSmart>();
            foreach (PhoneSmart phoneSmart in objects2)
            {
                AddPhoneInteractions(phoneSmart);
            }
            EventTracker.AddListener(EventTypeId.kInventoryObjectAdded, OnObjectChanged);
            EventTracker.AddListener(EventTypeId.kObjectStateChanged, OnObjectChanged);
        }
        private static ListenerAction OnObjectChanged(Event e)
        {
            PhoneSmart phoneSmart = e.TargetObject as PhoneSmart;
            if (phoneSmart != null)
            {
                AddPhoneInteractions(phoneSmart);
            }
            return ListenerAction.Keep;
        }
        private static void AddPhoneInteractions(PhoneSmart phoneSmart)
        {
            foreach (InteractionObjectPair pair in phoneSmart.Interactions)
            {
                if (pair.InteractionDefinition.GetType() == MobileInvestment.ResearchStocks.Singleton.GetType())
                {
                    return;
                }
            }
            phoneSmart.AddInventoryInteraction(MobileInvestment.ResearchStocks.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInventoryInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestOneThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInventoryInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestTwoThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInventoryInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestFiveThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInventoryInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestTenThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.ResearchStocks.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestOneThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestTwoThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestFiveThousand.Singleton);
            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestTenThousand.Singleton);
        }

            phoneSmart.AddInteraction(MobileInvestment.InvestTenThousand.Singleton);
        }

Thanks for this! It worked! Except now the interactions (which were the same ones) on the Home phones was borking things up! Oy vey! So, I removed those for now.
