Hi.
I have T-Mobile version and looks like "Back" sofy key does not work at all on call screen. It work before and after call but it unresponsive during the call. This is very annoying when a new call comes in while the navigation and it is impossible to press the back button to return. Does anybody know how to fix it?
Dmitry
Could anybody test to confirm the issue? Just open any app, ask somebody to call you and then answer (it will open ON CALL screen). Now try to press BACK soft key to return to previous app.
Thanks

I have an HTC Mogul with the latest officially released ROM (WM 6.0). Whenever I finish a phone call, the onscreen phone keypad "collapses"; I then have to hit the left hardware button (whose function now reads "Keypad") to cause the entire, regular keypad (with all 10 buttons, *, #, etc.) to display again.
Is there a registry setting that will prevent the onscreen phone keypad from ever "collapsing" in the first place?
Thanks.
I'd also like to know if this is possible.
I also get annoyed when I call voicemail or some other automated number and have to take the phone away from my head to press the "show keypad" button... I would rather have it stay up...
same here!!!!
It's a pain to have to look at the phone screen and press SHOW KEYPAD each time I call in the voicemail or a company with a menu..... I'd really like if someone could tell me how to get the keypad to stay on the screen after we press the SEND key by default....
thanks!
The dial button won't work on my phone suddently for some reason. If someone calls... it will allow me to hit it and it'll answer but if I just pick up my phone and hit the dial button (to dial someone) nothing will happen. It'll just show my today screen as if it's disabled for something. I can go the long way around and hit "phone" in my menu or hit the dial button when I happen to be in a program but it refuses to work just by pressing it?
Any ideas?
I have thew same problem. I have to go through icontacts to call anyone. Kind of a pain. hope some one knows of a reg edit. Thanks, Scott
Anyone know how to disable the hardware buttons for the incoming call screen?
I only want to answer/reject calls with the slider, not the hardware buttons as I sometimes touch them by accident while getting the phone out of my pocket.
I've tried PocketShield but didn't like it, although it was able to disable the hardware buttons. Any other suggestions?
Have you already tried s2u2? The slider can receive/reject incoming calls and you also have options to disable the hardware buttons. Works great on my elf.
I tried it some days ago, couldn't get it to work the way I wanted it to, mainly because I don't want to use the locking part. I always lock my device with the power button and I only wanted to have the ability to disable the hardware buttons for incoming calls.
After your message, I decided to install it again and give it another try. Changed some of the settings and I think I finally managed to get it working the way I want to!
It's a bit of a memory consuming app for just disabling the hardware buttons for incoming calls, but hey, it works
Thanks!
If anyone finds a solution without using S2U2, please let me know!
Ok, I have uninstalled S2U2 again. Even though it did do the job, it was also a memory consuming application just for disabling the answer/reject keys during incoming calls and I want to keep my device as clean as possible.
I have searched for hours trying to find a solution to this what I think is a very common problem. How many of you have accidentally accepted or rejected calls because of the hardware buttons? In my opinion, HTC should have thought about this and provide a solution for it.
Anyone with a better solution than S2U2?
Thanks for your input!
New version 1.40 of S2U2 uses MUCH less battery. I almost don't notice, it's running. Great program at least for me.
Since your previous post S2U2 1.4 has been released. This is supposed to address the issues you mention.
can you tell me how you have set your settings for just disabling the hardware buttons for incoming calls in s2u2 ? Thanks
I've used AE Button Plus to disable the 'Answer Call' an 'End Call' hardware keys as I had the same annoying problem of accidentally rejecting a call when taking the device out of my pocket. This works well for me and have now enabled the keys to turn wifi and bluetooth off and on with 3 taps.
Thanks everyone!
I wasn't aware of the latest S2U2 version and I almost gave it another try until I read Anfloyd's post.
I did look at AE Button Plus before, but didn't think it was capable of doing what I wanted: disable the hardware buttons during incoming calls, but still have them functional when there isn't an incoming call (such as showing the phone dial screen which it does by default).
When I looked at the AE Button Plus website, I noticed I couldn't configure the buttons based on the current active screen/program. So, even though I knew I could disable the hardware buttons, I thought I would then loose the whole functionality of them..and that would make the answer and reject buttons on my device useless.
BUT, after reading your message Anfloyd, it got me thinking..I don't need to configure it based on the current screen/program. I can just disable the buttons for 1 tap..and assign programs for them for 3 taps for example.
So, now I have this:
- 1 tap: do nothing. This way, both the answer and reject buttons are not working during incoming calls and I can only use the slider to accept/reject calls.
- 3 taps for answer button: start the phone application.
- 3 taps for reject button: nothing yet, but I'll find something
This is a solution I can work with! I have only tested it for a short time, so if it turns out that AE Button Plus is causing problems I'll give the latest S2U2 another try, but so far this seems to be working just fine.
Thanks again for your input!
ChrisVDD, those options can be found in the S2U2 settings. I don't have S2U2 installed anymore so I don't remember the exact settings. I just disabled all locking features that I didn't need, selected to disable the hardware buttons and chose to use the slider. Give it a try, you should be able to sort it out. If you can't, let me know and I'll install S2U2 again to see what settings you need.

First, select and hold "Green Phone button".
Then do this from top to bottom:
3. Handle by AEBPlus
1. Single press
1. None
..and select Ok
Then select and hold "Green Phone button" again.
Do this from top to bottom:
3. Handle by AEBPlus
3. Triple press
13. Press Green Button
..and select Ok
Then File > Save and Exit
That's it

Thank you for your fast reply, now It works like I wanted it to do.
Is it possible to end call using red hardware button but not to ignore it before answering? I tried AEBplus and it works like it should but that's not all I needed.

The problem I have with s2u2 is that I cannot mute incoming calls... The voulme buttons are locked... the touch screen is locked and mute on face down also does not work....
Maybe A_C will allow us which buttons to lock in the next release...
The Take-Call/Answer button appears to haveseveral functions:
It switches to the phone app (Good)
It answers an incoming call (good as prevents having to use the slide)
It dials the last number in the Calls list display (bad)
I keep finding that I double-press the button by mistake and end up dialling someone without intending to do so.
Is there any registry hack that can eliminate this last function. I have tried using Mobile Magic to assign the key to "switch to phone app" but then I can't use it to answer an incoming call which is a bit of a pain.
Or do I need to find an alternative dialler?
personally I find that disabling the green button from answering calls is a good thing - it means that you don't accidentally press it when taking it out of your pocket for example! you could try AE Button Plus and set long press of the green button to "press green button" and short press to "launch program" -> "phone" that way if you accidentally double-pressed the green button it wouldn't call the person, but would still load the phone dialer and could still be used to answer calls, just holding buttn instead of pressing...
Closest solution I can think of...
Sounded promising - thank you. Unfortunately I can't get a long keypress to generate an "green button press". I have decativated the usual long-keypress action but still no joy.
I even tried implementing a "double keypress" for answer but it only works sporadically.
Slider for Calling?
The Take-Call/Answer button appears to haveseveral functions:
* It switches to the phone app (Good)
* It answers an incoming call (good as prevents having to use the slide)
* It dials the last number in the Calls list display (bad)

after my touch hd didn't make an international phone call of several minutes today from my pocket, I didn't realize how right were your words.
So, I unbinded the Green Phone Button with AEB Plus and I reassign "Key 1 (Press)" to act as Green Phone Button. From now only pressing for a while the talk/send button will actually call the dialer.
However, the most gentle touch on a contact in the default dialer will make a call... which most of the times really annoys. What would be really cool and solve many problems is to use a slider for making the phone call (not only for answering). I searched conscientiously in the forum and I found no solution.
An alternative solution would be to use other contact manager, like Yota Contacts, for example. But, having a slider for making a call would be so cool
Hi everyone,
I recently traded my HTC Touch dual for Leo, and so far I'm pretty impresed, and I really really like it. I've had it three days and charged it three or four times already, because I can't stop playing with that phone.
However, today I noticed the first thing that annoyed me, and it did so pretty instantly.
I was playing around in Sounds and notifications, and I enabled the hardware button click sound, (didn't enable the screen tapping sound), and noticed that most of the time the dialer would immediatly dial the last dialled number upon key press, the same effect as pressing the hardware pickup button twice very fast. After disabling the hardware button sounds, the issue was resolved, so I don't worry to much about it, but I'm curious if anyone can replicate this behaviour on his/hers HD2...
During all this playing with the dialer and accidently dialing numbers I noticed how I can't just select a number in the dialer, it automatically redials from my call list. So I never actually have to press that green "Talk" button, the call I select is just immediatly dialed. This is very annoying, als the context menu is only useful for the last call (or the first number on the list).
The dialer also 'quits to desktop' immediatly when I hang up by tapping the red end call button. No call summary? No need to close the dialer?
I was wondering abour your dialer behaviour: does is dial out on screen tap, or does it just select the number? How about ending calls?
Grtz
Lukas
Yes, I hate the dialler app. I only use it for dialling fresh numbers not in my contacts list, or my voicemail (press and hold #1#), otherwise I use the contacts app. The dialler does dial out on a screen tap and quitting the call returns me to the home screen.
So the "add new numbers to contacts after the call"-function doesn't work either? I assume it's a bug? I run v.1.48 , does the 1.43 ROM behave the same way? I didn't notice...
Thnx
Lukas
*bump*
Anyone running 1.43 ROM; is this behaviour same as on 1.48?
Hey guys,
I'm gonna bump it one more time.
Can someone with 1.43 take the 10 seconds it takes to check if they can select a call in the dialer without immediatly dialing it? If it's the same as on 1.48 I won't have to flash back to it and you'll save few hours of my time, which I would greatly appreciate.
Thnx again.
Lukas
I'm not sure what your on about, but if you mean when you press the hardware call button and the dialed list appears, if you want to open the caller you press the icon on the right hand side of the screen next to the callers/name number.
Tapping the name/number calls them.
This has always been the case in all ROM's not just Leo
I've had an HTC Touch Dual, and tapping the calls opened call history for that number, with left softkey being 'call'. Pressing the call hardware button would dial out as well.
Also, after pressing 'end call' my touch would display a call summary (call duration) and wouldn't quit to desktop immedietly so I had the time to dial another number as wel.
Thnx for answering tho... I appreciate it.
Grtz
Lukas
It's by design.
You can tap the card icon instead of the number and it will open the card where you can tap the number you want to dial. I think it was done this way by design. No problems for me, save me a few taps for a call and when I end it.
Lukass,
No such issue on 1.48 WWE.
However, the tapping sound disappears after the 1st press of the green button. It reappears after pressing a different button though.
