When I open the slider or invoke the "phone app", the actual scrren I get is that of the call history. I then have to press "keypad" to go to the dialer?
Is there a way to go straight to the dialer when I open the slider?
hmm...since the hardware keypad is already open, just press a digit to go to the dialer. or did that not solve it?
No, actually pressing any number in the keypad has no results in call history...
It is actually a setting in the phone.
Go to Settings/Personal/Phone/Advanced and make sure that the bottom box is not ticked "Press SEND key to open Call History" untick it.
I hope this is what you mean.
seal, you're a GENIOUS!!
I thought that checkbox only affected the send button but it also affects the slide open.
Thanks!!
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!

Can anyone help or is it the phone. When I call someone you can press the home button and go to other applications, like messaging, mediascape, etc. But if press the dialler button, or retreive call in the notification bar, you can only get that call. How do you access the contacts menu? I needed numbers of people twice and I couldn't go into them without dropping the call first.....
WHen you're on a call and you press the home button... the calls still working in the background and from there then you can press the application screen and then select phonebook, and scroll through your contacts there. Hope that helped.
Yeah, don't click on the Dialer to check your contacts in the middle of a call, go to Phonebook instead in the Apps list.
hi can anyone tell me how to search for contacts in the search key?
(the 4 keys on the tab)
i press search key
i type my contacts name
it asks me which browser i want to use 'to complete the action'??
i have the search settings to only search apps and contacts but it keeps trying to open a browser
i can see the contact behind the browser i want to use 'to complete the action' screen, but cant get to it, pressing back key just exits search?
baffled!!
Press search button on your tab, press the "g" google button in the top left corner and a drop down menu lets you select which criteria you want the search function to be available for...
There is a grey option button top right in that lets you select/add searchable items. In your case make sure "Contacts" is ticked. The searched for contacts appear at the bottom of your search list.
e.g. if you want to search your messages too then tick "Messaging"
Hope this helps ;-)
can you give me the apk for this plz?

If you swipe contact in contact list, you can call or sms directly.
