Is there any way to change the slide to answer feature to something like just push a button to answer? Sometimes i dont slide it all the way and it gets annoying
bump? anyone
i second this bumping.
Agreed. Not a big fan of "slide to answer".
i guess sliding is the safest so as not to accidentally activate your phone from standby mode.... like answer a call from someone you are hiding from

I am looking for push buttons too or a lighweight clean slider.
Device: ATT Pure
Is it possible to have a slide to call option on the HD2? I hate how easy it is to accidentally dial a number on this phone (then i have to cancel) . I would love to have slide to confirm I want to make a call just like I have to slide to confirm I want to take one. I have looked in the forums, but have not seen anything that is like it.
Just a thought
Thanks
Im running MattC Leo Sense which uses a slide/lock for both the phone lock and to answer phone calls. I was able to change the phone lock slider from up/down to left/right but I want to do the same with answering phone calls.
What happens with incomming calls is someone calls me and I pull my phone straight up and out of my pocket. When I do this, the phone rejects the call because the phone rubs against my inside pocket and slids the answer/slide to reject phone call. If I could change the answer/slide from up/down to left/right then this wouldnt happen.
Does anyone have this issue and/or know of a fix?
Thanks

you can just set a screen lock on it and it doesnt show up until u unlock the screen lol.. thats wat i have or else it answers or ignores people in my pocket.. so with the connect the dot screen lock it just rings and shows u who it is until u unlock the screen...
Can you please tell me how you changed the unlocker from up/down to left/right. I would really appreciate.

same problem here, i've tryed the lockscreen tactic. but i find that very annoying. I have no program skills but there must be some guy who can make a small apk that deletes the slider and replaces it with nothing =) so i can just use the hard buttons on my HD2...
Just to bring the issue up again im still having massive problems with calls being ignored or answered (depends on which way the phone is in my pocket)
Anyway have any idea, ive tried widget locker but that only seems to apply to lock screen and not phone call screen.
This issue had anoyed me for a while as well. I have tried widget locker and that works great for the phone lock, but as mentioned earlier in this thread - not for the incoming call locker.
If someone fixes this for the sense based ROMs, they will be my hero!
cyanogen mod ROM includes the "slide to answer" from lockscreen window similar to "widget locker" app. i just wish they would include the option to add widgets and shortcuts to the lockscreen like widgetlocker does

I have the exact same problem, and looking for a fix.
same problem here
people hung up on me because phone answered in my pocket and they would hear noise while I'm removing it from my pocket/case >.>
setting a lock screen is so annoying, now I remove my phone carefully so I don't answer by mistake.
[edit] I've searched around the net, and downloaded a few new lock screens. there's one called "simply lock screen" it has an option to disable the slide to answer, and it will be replaced by the normal answer buttons you get when the device is not sleeping. it might work, but there's still chance that the answer/dismiss buttons will be pressed when you remove the device from the pocket
same problem here... no one has a clue yet?
the problem is htc sense...to avoid this problem i have switched to stock android builds...
There are a couple of apps out there that can help, the best I have found is Easy Answer Button. It is a bit tempermental, but if you install it as your last app after a fresh flash, it tends to work better - at least imho.
Others are Advanced Telephone (also free) and EZAnswer which will cost you a couple of bucks. (The link is to the 2 day trial).

Why don't you just delete htclockscreen.apk from system/app.
It will change sense up and down answer to left, right standard android lockscreen.
Use root explorer or the like and reboot afterwards to see changes.

I did a little hunting around and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for:
My girlfriend has a captivate, and hates the default answering screen you get when there's an incoming phone call. She finds the small slider too difficult to reliably slide all the way over on a consistent basis. I found a few apps that will change it to a single button, but they have mixed feedback, and that raises the problem of the phone accidentally being answered in her purse/pocket. Short of loading a custom ROM (I am /not/ going down that road on a phone that isn't mine) does anyone know of a way to change the answer screen to have a larger slider or like the glass style lock screen? Am I missing something obvious?
Hey guys, just wondering if it was possible to change the incoming call screen on my Epic 4g from the "drag the picture/icon in the middle up or down" one that's standard on the epic to the horizontal sliding unlock screen. I can't post pictures yet so I can't really show what I'm talking about, sorry.
My mom has the LG Optimus S, and her phone has the incoming call screen I'm talking about. Slide an icon from left to right, and you pick up. Slide an icon from right to left, and it ignores the call.
Thanks!
i'd like to know if this is possible also.
If you searched you would realize this has been discussed before. you want the aosp incoming call screen. Right now the imply way to get it is to install cm6

so, it's impossible to change incoming call screen from third party software
so sad
I wonder why anyone would want the AOSP incoming call screen when the TW call screen has that handy "ignore with text" button on it.. Plus you get a lil picture of the person calling you.. Not to mention if you miss a call, you get the "slide to missed call" thing on your lock screen
it seems to me that the tw incoming call screen is objectively better in that it provides more functionality... so, if you don't mind me asking, why are you so eager to switch to the AOSP incoming call screen?
