Hi all,
2 questions re. accessing voice mail and miss calls list on the hermes:
1) On my old phone (very old Sony Ericsson T100), there is a 'check voice mail' option in the menu that lets me quickly check my voice mails (ie. essentially a speed dial). And it looks like the phone automatically configured itself to work out the voice mail's number (from the SIM?) Can WM5 do this as well? I'd like to have the voice-mail option somewhere that's easily accessible, so I don't have to hunt through my contacts list for the number.
2) How do we find the list of miss calls? Again, on my old phone, I could simply go to the 'miss call' menu option to see the list of miss calls, and all the numbers on the list stay there until I expicitly clear the list. Does WM5 have this facility as well?
cheers

Hi
Regarding 2) Missed calls.
If you have current missed calls an icon appears on the task bar. Tapping this brings up a list of missed calls (if you choose view.)
Alternatively you can open phone with the green button go to menu and in call history missed ones appear with an exclamation mark.

Regarding voicemail, this may depend what you can set up with your provider. With O2 I have it set up to notify me with a text message and a link to call sender (i.e. voicemail).

In D2 there are 2 different forms of call history representations:
1. Simple Call History. You get there from home screen, tapping on Call History line. You get 3 buttons below, Call History (with options to show all, missed, outgoing,received using submenu), All Contacts, Favorites.
2. Advanced Call History. You get there when there is missed call, and you click on notify bar, then in notification manager - on "you have X missed calls" line.
In this list you see 4 buttons below, allowing quick filtering (missed,outgoing,received, all).
Simple or Advanced are mine inventions, I have to do something to tell them apart ...
So the question is: how can I change behavior of Call History line on home screen, so it will open Advanced Call History (which is much easier to use), instead of Simple Call History ?

Thats really something I would like to have too!
I agree, it would be great to change this.
Your "simple" call history is the TF3D version, whereas "advanced" is the standard WM6 version. Unfortunately, I haven't found any way to turn off only selected parts of the TF3D interface. Must be in the registry somewhere. Maybe someone out there has more ideas?

Yup, I like the "advanced" one also better. Any progress in this topic?
Me too, anyone?
Looks like not too many people are interested in this!
Just discovered something interesting.
During a call, bring up the dialer keypad on the screen (by pressing the button). Now, if you swipe your finger across the blank white space to the left, you'll bring up the WM6 style quick dial list, and if you swipe to the right you'll bring up the WM6 style call history.
Not sure why this works, but it does. Doesn't help much with our initial query though!
For what it's worth, I'm using the Dusk dialer.
Um... found a way of getting the other "advanced" call history to come up... by mistake, and it is a little convoluted! I have SK tools installed and in SK tools set a shortcut up for the "Close Tasks" feature, I then set my call button to access the Close Tasks shortcut, using the "buttons" option under the standard rom settings tab. Now when i use that shortcut by pressing and holding the call button, it closes all the tasks then jumps to the elusive "advanced" missed calls screen!
Odd, not a fix for everyone as it means closing all your other software to open the screen but thought it may be of interest!

Still waiting on my DINC while using my WM TP2. I have one well two feathers I like to have on my DINC. I am tech support and get calls all the time:
1. On my TP2 when on a call and a new incoming call comes in I can reject that call with a 'send txt' button and it send the caller a text I pre-created to let them know I am busy. Is it possible to do this on the DINC?
2. There is a free app my TP2 uses to record all calls automatically and it helps me because I cannot not write many times when I am driving or running network in a ceiling so the ability to playback a saved call is huge. Is there a app out there anyone use to record calls on the DINC? (pls do not concern me about the legal side this is for me and me only and there are apps that can do it which I am doing now)
Thx
DINC does at least one of those

This is already built in ... go to PHONE -> MENU -> PHONE SETTINGS
The top entry is "Edit default message" where you would put your pre-typed rejection. Once its in there, on a phone ring, you can go to Menu and click "reject and send message" (or some such thing; cant be sure as I am not getting a phone call as I write this).
I recently banned ALL sprint apps through the Damaged DConfig app. When you do this it unfortunately removes the stock sprint visual voice mail app. Well, instead of going into the dialer and long pressing the "1" key, I figured out how to at least add the functioning icon back to my home page the way I liked it, but without the visual voice mail functions.
1. add "Voice Mail" to your contacts.
2. for the phone number of "Voice Mail", use your phone number, ex. (XXX)123-4567.
3. go to google and type in "voice mail icon" in search and find an icon that you like.
4. save it to your PC.
5. open up google gmail on your PC's browser.
6. make sure that your phones gmail account has synced.
7. go to your contacts in gmail on your PC.
8. located "Voice Mail" in your contacts and click on the "change picture" on that contact.
9. click to browse for the image that you saved. double click the image.
10. once it syncs, go back to your phone and long press an empty space on your phones homescreen.
11. click on shortcuts, then direct dial, and then click on your "Voice Mail" icon.
Thats it. It doesn't give you the functionality of the visual voice mail, it's only the basic dial in voice mail, but it helps to fill the void on your home page. You should still recieve a notification of a new voice message, then just click your new "Voice Mail" icon to listen.
Hopefully someone else will find this to be helpful. I know I did.
Share your icons for others if you like this.
hi,
on my old HTC Desire, the stock contacts application have an option to auto-reject all the calls from a contact. this option is not available in stock contacts application for the tab.
howto auto-reject all the calls for any (or more than one) contact.
thx
There is a call reject list you could use to list the #s you want to reject. It's under Call settings.

not capable to find that you did.
more help is needed...
From a home screen:
Menu- Settings - Call Settings
There are 2 options for rejecting calls with messages, and each has more settings.
Now yes!
thank you very much
