Voice speed dial on today screen - Touch GSM General

On my last phone I had a button on the side I could press to start voice dial.
I’ve just got a HTC Touch which I like very much. The problem is if I want to use voice dial I have to go hunting for it in programs.
Is there any way to add it to the today screen.
I have SPB Mobile Shell if that is any help?
Thanks
Chris

You can also assign it to the Camera button.

Jasjar printscreen button?

Is there a print screen button in jasjar qwerty keyboard?
Afraid not
thanks for the info
use ssmagic (screenshot magic), search internet and download, has the same effect as print screen. You can even do a voice tag for it using voice speed dial, and voice command a "screenshot", need to get the timing right though.
wish I could get MS VC working, the fun I could have, sigh.

Smartskey on the hermes and D-pad functions

I have Smartskey installed on my Hermes for closing apps with the soft key. I used to use it on my wizard for bringing up my call history when in the phone app by using the d-pad. However, HTC put the d-pad functionality during phone app back into the hermes and now it overrides Smartskey. It sends you to speed dial when you press up or left, and I want it to go to call history when I push left.
Is there any way to make it work like it did on the wizard?

SMS - how to call back sender?

So I did a little searching and couldn't find my answer. This should be an easy one for you guys.
I am new to Windows Mobile and when I receive an SMS from someone whose number I don't have stored it shows up in my conversation window with just the senders number.
example:
12131234567
"how r u?"
Now when I click the number to call the person back it won't let me. It says the number is not in your contacts, would you like to add it?
Here is the deal. What if I don't want to add it, I just want to call the sender to find out who the hell they are first. Can this be done? If so, how?
Highlight the number with the dpad and hit the call hard button?

that method does not work on my english x1i.
when i do that: highlight the number then hit the call button, when i hit the call button it just opens up the dialer and shows me the last call that i made.
You have to highlight it with dpad, not with touch screen. It is working without any problem on my UK X1.

thanks, wow. didn't know there was a difference between highlighting with touch vs with the d pad, but obviously so. thanks, that one was killing me though i still think its rather inconvenient to do it. i wish you could just tap the number and it gives you options with what to do with the number instead of having you do different actions to execute different tasks.
On my X1i Uk generic...
From the in-box just highlight(select) the message from the list with the D-Pad. If you use the touchscreen, the problem it will open it!!!
Then just hit the call button. it will open a window to verify number to dial and at the bottom of the screen it has a "Call " or "menu" soft button ....

To call even faster you can just use call button on unopend sms (for ex. you can read it, then close it fast with ok button and next hit call button to call this person).

HELP - remove call history from phone dialer or "confirm call"

Newbie here, getting used to my first touch screen phone and WM6.1/Touchflo on my HD.
First of all - this forum is GREAT! I have spent a week glued to it and has given me loads of helpful info during my transition from Nokia S60 to Touch HD.
However, there are 2 things I'd like to know:
1. Is it possible to remove the recent calls/contacts list from above the keypad on the phone dialer either through a registry change or using a different wvga dialer skin? It's too easy to accidentally press one of these and call someone I don't want to call. I am more than happy to press menu->call history to see the call history.
2. When you click on a name in the contacts list it goes straight to dial them (if there is only one number or you click in recent calls). Is there some kind of "confirm call" question add-on? i.e. if you click on a contact, instead of calling them straight away it asks you if you are sure! (This would actually be a solution to 1. above I guess).
I've been searching for hours for something like this so if it is already covered I do apologise for not finding it from searching (perhaps I am using the wrong terminology).
Thanks in advance.
Newton.
p.s. keep up the good work here!
First of all - welcome to the forum!
In terms of your questions....
Yes, this is an issue that has been discussed and as far as I know, no one has found a good solution for it. It is annoying that it automatically calls the contact you tap.
For your question Nr. 1: I don't know if that can be done.
For question Nr. 2: Here is a suggestion that I posted in another thread.
Keep in mind that the "recent calls list" above the number pad is the issue here.
On the other hand, if you simply open your contacts' list, then tapping on a name will not automatically call, but rather it opens the contact. Then, tapping on a number will call, and tapping on the name/picture at the top will open contact for editing.
1) I used AE Button Plus to solve this problem. Remapped the Green Button: One press -> Return , tripple press -> Green Button. Since then I had no calls by accident any more
P.S.: Changed from Nokia S60 (N73) to the Blackstone too ! Cheers!!!

Thanks for the reply and suggestion. Not sure what this actually means (we don't have a green button on Touch HD!!) but I'm going to download AE Button Plus and I'm sure I'll figure it out anyway.
Did you use the freeware version 1.0.1 or the paid for version 2.6.5 of AE Button Plus ?
EDIT: Just downloaded 2.6.5 and mapped green button triple press to green button and single press to nothing (I assume that's what you meant by "return") and yes, it prevents a single press of the hardware call button but does not seem to help accidentally tapping a contact in the recent calls list above the phone dialer keypad and dialing straight away. Perhaps you misunderstood what I was trying to do or I missunderstood your solution!!
Thanks

Remap the Button on the headset

Is there a possibility to program the button, which is integrated in the headset?
If I push it, nothing happens. If I push it twice, the caller dials the number I last called in the callhistory.
It would be nice if the caller would popup if I push the button one time, and maybe, if I hold the button for 3 secs, my player (Conduits) would stop playing or something like that.
Pressing it ones is for answering and hanging up a call
jeah, but on my samsung omnia which i had before the TD2, i pressed the button once and the dialer opened up, i liked that in some way, it must be possible to make this on the TD2 too.
and it would be simply nice if i could stop the song i am playing with pressing the button for 3 seks or something like that.
I installed the voice dialler software. Now when I press it, I can say 'home' and it dials home etc. or use it to fire up software.
