When I check my call history, it shows the time of call for all the calls received today but only the date for the calls received on previous days. Is there any way to get the time to display on those?
If you just tap the entry on the call log screen, a subtext menu will pop up with the call details - i.e. time, date, and duration of the call. I'm do not believe there's any way to make it display both time and date without tapping the touch screen once.
Hope this helps!

On the home page, next to the telephone graphic is an exclamation as if there's a missed call. I have deleted all calls, taken battery and SIM out and it's still there!!
If it says "Call History" next to it, then don't worry. Thats the icon they use for the call history, whether you have missed call or not. Maybe its time to read the manual.
Okay so I've been using the G1 for about a month now and since I can't find answers to these questions in the forums and I can't find any apps to help me, I thought it best just to be direct and lay it out for all you android genius' out there.
1. Very annoying that every time I hang up a call the screen locks. I still want to use the screen lock feature but I don't want it to happen every time I hang up the phone.
2. I'd like a quick way for calling the default number of a contact listed in the contact's list. If I tap the contact it takes me into the full contact information screen and then I have to pick the number to call. It would be nice if I could bring up the list of contacts or just begin typing a name anywhere in the OS (thereby bringing up the contact list) and simply select a name and have it dial somehow.
3. Is there a way to reprogram the volume control buttons on the side? It's in a very annoying position and while playing a game or running an app I constantly brush up against those buttons and the ringer volume pops up and messes up my gameplay.

Please form your questions in the form of a question.... Anyways..
1. My screen doesn't completely lock after a call, just press menu once afterwards and it is right back to where it was (for incoming calls), and for outgoing I don't think it even takes that - just pop back to where it was before I made the call.
2. If you long press on a contacts default phone number you can set it as the default phone number, then when you have that contact selected in your list just press the call button and it initiates a call with the default number. Doesn't get much easier than that. To clarify you don't even have to open the individual contact, just highlight it in your contacts list.
3. That would probably have to be an app specific option, but I don't know if that is even possible.
Why do you not use anycut and create a shortcut for your contact
Contacts not contact.
I don't want to have to make an anycut shortcut to every contact in my address book.
What I'm asking here is:
Is there any way to just simply tap a contact and have it call them. Is there a way to turn off the feature that locks the screen when you just tap the red phone button (for example maybe holding it down to lock so that when I just tap to end a call, it simply ends the call instead of also locking the screen).
All my questions revolve around doing in 1 click what most of you are suggesting doing in 2-3 clicks. Who wants to have to hit menu and end call every time you hang up? Single actions have been used since the invention of the phone for hanging up. Silly to have to click something 2-3 times to end a call without locking your phone.
I have tried searching the forums, but haven't found anything about this.
In the Phone screen (with numeric pad and the recent call list) each entry has an icon, the person's name and phone number and a button to show the contact or details about the call.
Why isn't the time of the call in that list? Is there a way to turn that on? I consider that vital information.

yes it is annoying. I wish it is listed here.
But if you tap the thing on the right, it will show you all history for that particular person. In this screen, you have time and duration for each entry.
Also tap the button on the left next to "Talk" and it will open "Call History" with all the vital information you want.
Folks, is it just me or is there a trick I have missed?
When I get a voicemail and I try to call my voicemail box by tapping on the message asking me to call my voicemail and I end up having to hit the screen 3 times !
I get the Incoming message stating
"Please call 321, You have N new voiceMail messages"
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER and get the menu pop up with the number and several options e.g. Forward, delete message etc
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER (AGAIN!)
Then I get another screen asking me to verify the number with three options - call, send message and save to people
I CLICK ON THE NUMBER AGAIN!!
I press on the CALL button and hold down the number "1" and it'll dial voicemail (that is if i dont see it near the top of my recent calls...in which case i'll just tap on it). So really, it involves two presses to call voicemail.
Thanks, didn't realise the 1 number key was preset to voicemail. At least that is some improvement. You would have hoped the number in the incoming message being clickable would have automatically dialled the number for you but what the heck.
Thanks again
Doesn't matter how I set my phone up I can't seem to answer calls
It rings and if I lift it up the lock screen appears but it doesn't show an incoming call.I unlock it expecting it to go to incoming call screen and it doesn't it shows the home screen.If I then select the dialer it goes to call history not incoming screen .Tbe incoming call only rings about 4 times before ending so By the time I have done this the caller has rang off ,am I missing something really simple
Thanks for any help
I think this happens when your default app configuration has no dialer selected. touch settings->apps->Default/Standard apps->dialer
take also a look at the permissions screen of the dialer app
