Duplicate contacts in Call history; How to delete/fix them?

I found it very annyoing; so please someone help:
First of all: in call history; it alway sets to all calls; that means showing missed/incoming/outgoing everything; Even if you put filter to missed calls only; next time you open history; it again reverts back to All calls filter; So QUES IS: how do you make HTC remember call history filter which you set up earlier (like show call history only)
2ND QUES:
even dumbest fone of Moto's shows this; when you call xyz from your ph.book, and called again, its shows 1 entry in call history (not every time you call it), but in HTC it shows 10 entry if you try to call 1 number and it's busy or not connecting; so how do i get rid of these duplications?
Help appericiated; ques sounds dumb but i'm rookie using PPC 1st time in life

same issues as above is there a fix? also is there a way to save text messages or lock them?

How to handle incoming calls programatically

Hi guys.
When I use my headset I would like to know who is calling. So I thought about it and came to two solutions.
One is to make a program to handle incoming calls and that can be configured to play the voice tag associated with the current calling contact, or if the caller isn't on the address book, then say the phone number (I would make 10 wav files each with one number spoken on it).
The second option was to search for something like it on the net.
For the first I've searched everywhere and I wasn't able to find how to programatically handle incoming calls and retrieve the call info.
For the second I haven't found such software.
Can someone point me in some direction?
Thanks

I searched better and it seems that Microsoft Voice Commander does what I need.
Can someone please confirm?
Thanks

Phone application cprog.exe

Hi,
I want some information about default phone application cprog.exe.
I want to know how does it communicate with outlook and other application.
I guess most probably it should be via message posting.
But, unfortunately wheni tested the same with spy running on cprog and then i called a contact from outlook contacts.
I see many messages posted to cprog but I found no message or Parameter(WPARAM/LPARAM) to cprog that contains the number to call.
can anyone help me out to get information how to fetch that number? the number passed to phone/cprog.exe from contact.
The same thing i need for sddialer.exe that after matching the sound tag, how it informs cprog that which number to call?
Please help! I am looking these since long...

Good Luck
Best of luck trying to find any doco on cprog (if you do, please post back here!).
If you have a look at this thread you may find what you are looking for (at least how to initiate a call from the PC is there):

Look for LINE_REQUEST message
There a two ways, that an application can make a call; using tapiRequestMakeCall or lineMakeCall. tapiRequestMakeCall is by far the simplest to use. Examples of their use can be found in two sample cellcore progams available from microsoft, CeDialer, and HelloTapi. You could try this and see which produces messages simular to outlook. I'll guess that it's HelloTapi (tapiRequestMakeCall).
When an application uses tapiRequestMakeCall a LINE_REQUEST message is sent to the call-control application. This application must then call lineGetRequest to get information on the request. It then must execute the request.
See the remarks on the lineRegisterRequestRecipient page at microsoft
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms736043.aspx

I wish there was a similar Hello USSD example for the lineSendUSSD API. There's very little information on it... No one seems to be able to capture the responses past the first call.

oops missed part of your question
After the call app places the call, it should get a series of messages, mostly LINE_CALLINFO and LINE_CALLSTATE. The messages contain a handle for the call. Once you have the call handle you should be use the lineGetCallInfo and lineGetCallState functions to get info about the call. I think lineGetCallInfo includes the number that was called. The callstate typically goes through dialling, progressing, and then connected. I believe your not supposed to use the call handle until after a LINE_REPLY message is sent, saying the call didn't fail. If there are problems perhaps you should wait a short time.
To find out more about the messages, you could play with the CeDialer sample. It's linecallbackfunc looks at the messages, it would be easy to put in a few logging statements to see what's in each message. It think CeDialer will only get messages for inbound calls, and calls that it originated. (not ones by cprog.) Although you should check to be sure that I'm correct.
Good luck! Please, let us know whatever you might find out.

Hi,
I will look into this and post reply according As soon as possible.
Thanks

Where i can find the original cprog.exe to install in my non phone PDA? it's the dialer for voip.
Many thanks

Caller identification

The hd2 does no longer show that a redirected call is coming in, as some people may have been used to see on other devices. You only see the number of the person who initiated the call.
Let's say phone "b" will be redirected to "c".
A caller "a" will call "b" and of course end up at "c".
The hd2 is phone "c" which isn't able to see that the call isn't a direct call.
Since even older mobile phones show a redirected call symbol I presume that the hd2 is hiding some information.
IS there a way to display enhanced caller id informations?
Maybe there is a way to show these details by registry settings or by using a tool.
Showing the reroute adress as well in the phone, or at least the symbol would be a start. The ability to see who is calling should be kept of course.
Thanks for ideas an hopefully a solution to this.

Did anyone come up with a caller information add on for the HD2?
Is there a way to notice whether you receive a direct call or a re-routed call?
Hopefully someone knows an answer.

Same question from me. Any chance to identify redirected phone call on HTC dialer?

How to tell time of call in call history?

Is there a way of showing the time of each call in the call history list?

..when you click on the call you have the duration!

Thanks for your reply, but it was the time of the call, not the duration, that I wanted - e.g. call received at 6:28pm. When I click on a call it simply re-dials the number

Instead of clicking on the call, click the contact card on the right side.
This will list all calls from that number with times.

When I click the contact card to the right of the call details it either:
- does nothing (if the number is in my address book), or
- asks me if I want to add the number to my contacts (if the number is not in my address book).
Is this behaviour configurable to get it to work the way you describe?

May be default config for WM6.5.
I assume you're on WM6.1?
I tested with both calls from address book and not in address book, both gave me times.

Yes I'm on WM6.1. Anyone know if it's modifiable behaviour?

i'm using wm 6.1 stock rom, go to menu then choose call history then you can click contact card and see the date, time and duration for any number even if it is not saved to address book

but when the call is from an unknown number, it will do nothing when I press on the contact card. You can only see the date of call if the call was not received today...

I'm not actually using TF3D - I use SPB Mobile Shell 3. Is that maybe why I can't see call history for numbers which are not in my contacts?
