i'm in a phone conversation, and someone asks me if I'm available on a certain date, i would want to check my calendar to see if i'm available.
i wanted to do this yesterday but after looking for more then a minute (while the call was open) i gave up.
does anyone know how to do this or even if it is possible???
(so open my calendar during a phone conversation)
pin it to the start menu
push hardware home button. then hit calendar on home screen. hit call hardware button or phone status in task bar on touch screen to get back to dialer screen.
I have the calendar in the start program. Everyone by default also has the "Today" on line one of the start menu, which will minimize the phone, take you to home screen, and allow you to open Tasks (or in your case, calendar). Finally, use the close button (X in upper right) to close the phone. It doesn't disconnect the phone.

thx for the replies guys!

I have searced but to no avile.
I do use magic button, but I want to be able to close an app without taping the top right corner of the screen, with the ok button.
am I doing something wrong?
also is the best way to null the active sync from auto starting still making a fake server exchange?
Keep stylus on the ok button for a couple of secs, then an icon like a house should appear on your taskbar. Press this for a short while and a menu sholuld appear where you can change the settings to close programs instead of minimize.
or can use smclose which is simpler - just place in windows startup folder voila!

Hi All and Merry Yuletide greetings!
I have a HTC dual on Orange, owned for 3 days, having been an owner of a SE P990i previously.
The phone is very good, but I would like some help from more experienced users as to a couple of questions / points:
1) If you are using the Navigational Control / Enter and are more than one level down in a sub menu, I keep looking for a 'Back' key to bring you back one sub menu and then again etc until you go back to the main screen. I cant seem to achieve this unless I tap the top right hand side of the screen. (The cross)
2) I have several e-mail accounts set up, but they are not part of Outlook E-mail. They are just separate accounts which I have on virgin, Uk2, bt etc. On the P990i it was possible to with just one click, send / receive all e-mail accounts. I cant seem to acheive this with the dual. I have to go separately into each account and hot send/receive. I am aware that I can set it up to automatically check every so many minutes / hours, but I would prefer to be able to check all accounts by pressing one button. On the orange phone, they have the option of 'Checking Orange E-mail' on the home screen. This is what I would like, but 'Check all e-mail accounts'.
The phone is generally very good. A little top heavy if you are using it lying down and using the navigation control!

im not sure about the 2nd question, but doesnt the red phone down button bring you back to the main screen?
Thanks for your answer............
This is correct. However, getting back to the main screen is the not the objective, simply to move back one level.
For example:
If I go to Start/settings/today and I want to get back to the settings page I have to hit the top right hand side of the screen, the OK button.
It would be easier if there was a 'back button' or where you could assign a button to take on the job of you having to click the OK button at the top right of the screen.
Paul
oh i see. sorry i dont know the answer, i only got my dual recently ive not had much time to play.
well, i face the same problem as well... there is no "back" button...
re your q1.
well, there is no "back" concept in situations like your example of "Start > settings > today". it's windows mobile. you can imagine it as the desktop windows. you call control panel from start menu, then choose one item to customize. now you have multiple "windows" on your desktop. so, to uncover the back one, you need to click the "ok" (or "X") on top-right corner to close the topmost window.
Hi there,
I have the regular HTC Home plugin... no Contacts tab, and I do not use any quick/speed dial features besides manually selecting a telephone number from the Contacts list.
When I run certain applications and I click the left softkey to exit the applications or to do other things within the applications, this application (shown in the attached picture) will sometimes pop up. I would say the occurrence is once every five times in certain applications, and I find it quite annoying.
Questions:
1. What is this application?
2. Can prevent it from running without causing errors?
Thanks in advance.
nmcb
that is the Speed dial screen from the touchflo cube, it comes from sliding your finger across the screen in an upward fashion i dont know why it is doing that when you press the left soft key
What left softkey are you tapping? Are you sure you are in the right forum?
Hi everyone! As the title says, for some strange reason this morning my 'Home' button won't work from any application, the button however does make the screen light up and the buttons light up, but does not take you back to the home screen... also, when at the home screen, the dial button would usually bring the contacts or the dialer page up, but this is not working either, however, if I go into the contacts shortcut on the home screen and select a contact and press the dial button there, it will call them...
so basically, my main issue is the Home button not working!
Its not rooted *yet* and is therefore running a standard rom, it does have a fair few apps installed tho, but I have used the advanced task manager to close everything... I'm v' new to all this Android stuff as up until a few months ago, I was a Windows Mobile person with my previous SPV's and HTC's so any help would be greatly appriciated!
Thanks, Adam.
When I press the Phone application ( I know it's strange to actually speak with someone over a smartphone these days.) the top half of the screen has icons of the six people I called recently, and the bottom half of the screen has a list of the recent calls the phone has sent and received.
I know this may sound crazy, but when I enter the telephone mode, I would actually like to have the number buttons appear on the screen immediately; similar to what a real telephone looks like. I don't want to have to make another step to press the keypad button every time. If I want to use my contacts to make the call, I'll start with the Contacts application, or press the Contacts tab at the top of the screen.
Is there a setting to make the Phone application actually look like a phone?
