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?

Good Call Register for Wizard..

Hi
Can anyone suggest good CALL History / Register application.
In the wizard in the calll history it lists all the incoming/outgoing/missed/all calls on one page , rather than proving TAB version for each.
does any one of any free apps..
regards

You can view the calls by incoming / outgoing / missed / user by using the menu > filter option in call history.
Not quite what you were after, but I am not sure if you had seen the filter option before.

Is there anyway to get the recent call list to display the telephone number and number of calls from tht number on the side rather than list every single time of call from tht particular number.
It's quite irritating... when i'm in a meeting there are times when i'll recieve like 10 missed calls from one single number and it's quite painful to browse thru soo many calls.

Hi
You are right , there is a filter option , buy I would rather prefer a tab option
without going into Menu->Filter , I have a Sony Eric Phone and I got addicted with that interface and quite like it.
So may be just asked the Q in the forum.

Black listed Application for WM?

Is there any Developed application For Blocking unwanted calls or drop call?
Specially The functionality included,
1) By number or by Address book NAME.
2) Instead receive the call and and Auto TONE OF VOICE dialog says
something like
"Sorry, U have been block".
Without any ringing or notice to me.
Lots of peoples are facing lots of unknown calls from unknown user just to disrupt him/her.
Lots of missed calls at night are a regular bother to someone at this time.
Sorry if I ask this in wrong thread. I have search using Google but not found any apps like functionality i have mentioned.

Reject Call With Text Message

Does anyone know how to get this to work?
It can be found in Start - Settings - Phone - Advanced Tab
Mine is ticked but doesn't seem to do anything when I choose Ignore to an incoming call (i.e. the caller is not sent a text message saying the above)
Any ideas

I have wondered about this for a long time, but haven't come up with anything to make it work, sorry.
I usually disable it sooner or later, just in case.

I have unlimited text messages so charges isn't an issue for me.
All I can find is the option to send a text message when a call comes through, but nothing to automatically send a text message on an ignored call.

Hm, I think it's like this. Someone is calling you and if you wan't to ignore/reject the call, put your phone upside down on a table(with screen to the table), the call will be automatically ignored and I think THEN the message will be sent try it, not sure

I think, I have figured it out.
On an incoming call, you have the option to click on "Send text" in the lower left corner. The call is then rejected and you can compose an SMS to send to the caller.

I use an app called SMS Minder to do this myself, and I'm quite pleased with the results. You can have it respond to all missed calls/texts (select BLACKLIST & leave the field blank) or only to missed calls from certain numbers (select WHITELIST & add the numbers you want to respond to).
I've been using it for several months and it makes my work so much easier. I'm a cabdriver, and when a call comes in & doesn't get answered for whatever reason SMS Minder sends a message that says "I can't talk now, please text me".
For the longest time I didn't really trust Texting that much, but it's become an integral part of my work now. So much easier to read&reply to an SMS (10 to 15 seconds tops) than it is to dial voicemail, listen through the prompts & recital of the phonenumber, then listen to the message...and finally after all of THAT is done, then return the person's call. Texting is just that much easier.
Especially if I use a program like this to automate my responses...and a program on my desktop to send other text messages just like they were an email (it's got an interface similar to Outlook). I plug the phone into the computer & tuck it away...then any interaction I have with the phone is done by using Jeyo Mobile Companion (SMS interface with additional cool features) and/or MyMobiler (fully manipulable screen-shot of the phone's screen) on my desktop.
Of all the apps I've tried and/or discarded, these three have become almost indispensable to my work.

Use QSMS To Buddy:FullFeatured Free app from android market
Posted Android app on non Android forum by mistake. Sorry!

i believe, given the age of this thread, that it is about the native windows mobile feature to reject calls with an sms and there was no need to bump the thread with an app for another operating system. also, on android, depending on your phone and rom, this feature might also be pre-installed and available from stock, w/o the need for a 3rd party app.

Blocking unwanted incoming calls and sms on HTC Touch Pro2

GodswMobile, the makers of SMS Transfer, have released a new application called Pocket Call Blocker.
As the name would suggest, the purpose of the application is to block unwanted incoming calls and sms. Unlike other software available for doing this, they have managed to keep the application as simple as possible. You simply add numbers to the filter list and the program prevents those numbers from calling you. Also unlike other applications available, the software does not simply ignore calls from those numbers – it instantly hangs up the callers. This prevents the unwanted callers from even reaching your voicemail! BTW, it could also used as a sms spam filter.
Key feature description from pocketcallblocker.com
* Multiple filtering rules - filter by specific numbers, wildcard numbers, anonymous and unidentified numbers, groups/categories numbers, contact/non-contact numbers; all numbers.
* Two incoming phone call block actions - hang up and mute;
* Two SMS block actions - delete and mark as read;
* Built-in phone number block log;
* Run on background;
* Easy way to operate and set up filter rules;
The application runs on Windows Mobile Pocket PC 6, 6.1, and 6.5 and is available from pocketcallblocker.com for $19. But I found a discount order link with 50% off.

AMEN!!! And SPAM! of course. lol
While we're on the subject, I used to use CallFirewall before changing my number, but never found a similar program for text messages. Does anyone know of one?

now, when recieving an incoming call do you still recieve the initial ring before it hangs up? Because ive yet to find a program that completely blocks a call. They just hang up a split second after. if i blocked a number, i want it to go straight to voicemail for that person, without ringing. ill check this one out

I use Photo Contacts Pro myself...not freeware, but it does the job quite nicely hanging up on unwanted calls and sms...

Magicall from mobiion is doing a verny nice job. you can set up different rules for calls and sms and also tell the program what to do with them (ignore, hang up, delete sms, forward, and so on)
