keyboard when in call? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Ok, 2 say i am a little annoyed is the understatement of the year for me!
When i call a company ( no matter what company.... ) most of `em start with a menu, wich asks you to dial a number.....
I would, if i could!
I can not get the numberpad up when i am actually in a call....
Can some 1 point me out how to get the friggin` thing 2 work?
lolz

Tap the "keypad" button to bring back the number pad.

Uhuh, i wish it was that simple, coz it is not showing the symbol to tap on!
What now?
Really have no clue....
Greets

Is there a setting somewhere so that we don't have to keep on tapping the keypad or the call button?
I would like for it to stay on during a call.
Anyone? Thanks...

ok, found it.....
Feel stupid, was the only button i did NOT try.......
It says "keylock"...... usually it will lock keys if you push it, but in this case it shows the dialbuttons.......
took me a while though.... whahaha
But thnx 4 the thinking...

Answer Call Button

Does anyone know how to set up the phone so it will answer an incoming call by not only pressing the green phone icon, but also allow me to answer by pressing the center silver button?
A quick search didn't find anything?
There is an "any key" answer option in settings. I don't know if you can narrow it down to a select button of your choice, though.
Ya anykey could probably work, but its still not exactly what i want. If i could have just the center key/green phone key work, that would be perfect.
I dont want to pick up the phone when its ringing and accidentally hit J or C and it answers a call that I dont want to answer.
yea the any key kinda sucks because if you press a key by accident it will automatically pick the phone up lol... i did that a few times to people i didnt want to talk to lol

hang up during conversation...

hi everybody!
any one can explain why the touch hd hangs up tel conversation after few sec or few mins...? it is impossible to make a full call phone, or sometimes it works fine with headset and sometime no.
thx for your help!
Are you using an old sim card?
Having been a touch screen phone user for quite a while now, on to my fourth. I have experienced this problem on every phone i've had. The cause of the problem is that i cut off the call on the screen during a call with my ear......Sounds silly but its a problem, they always seem to put an "end call" button right in the middle of the screen on these phones, very easy to push with your ear. The HD has a nice big end call button too, cut myself off on this on a few times too in the last couple of months. Maybe go back to the home screen during a call so your ears cant touch any onscreen buttons.
If your getting it during calls whith a headset then i'm talking rubish. Mybe a handset fault, have you dropped it? Dont think they like it..... Good luck.

Am I the only one who hits the power button with the keyboard extended?

I've searched but I can't find any one else complaing of this problem and it's driving me nuts.
When I extend the hardware keyboard to type, my finger often rests on the power button turning the screen off. Does anybody else face this problem? Is there a registry hack to disable the power button with the keyboard is extended?
Thanks
jejeje
Same problem!!!! so frustating!!!
No you are not the only one; I also have this problem; when writing message I touch the power button accidentally a lot and the only solution I could come to was to be more delicate and careful when writing
Regards,
Yep, same problem here! A really silly thing to miss - there's not particular reason to not have the power button on the right at the top rather than the left.
all the time....
very frustrating,
..then I try to open it, wait a fraction of a second, click it again for fear of not having pushed it enough the first time, ... and I end with the sleep mode on the phone , .. so I click it firmly for a third time finally opening it..
timewaste...
same here

me too
Add me to the list.
Which makes me wonder, why didn't they place the power on the top right?
Well at least I know I'm not the only one. Still hoping someone smarter than I will find a way to disable it with keyboard extended
@vdKarel I would have found those post had I spelt button with two t's (#)
I wasnt having that problem until today actually. lol. funny you bring it up. After discovering this, i did find it a little inconvenient where the power button is placed
happens some times. probably the power button would be better in an other place
I do it all the time as well
I use it a lot (pages and pages of word documents written on it in the train) and it doesn't happen...
When I hold mine with keyboard extended, my left index (which is the one which could hit the power button) is folded, so it hits the left side of the keyboard "block" (no power button here) then goes under the screen "block" and holds the back of the keyboard "block", it doesn't press the left side of the screen "block" (which has the power button).
Do you guys have your left index extended for it to be along the left of both the keyboard "block" and the screen "block" ? I don't see how else you could be hitting the power button...
PS : On my TyTN, this allowed me to turn the PPC on and off with the left index tip with the keyboard out, this avoided waiting for the screen to rotate when I knew I'd wand it in landscape when I trun back on.
This only happens to me after ALMOST completing a 900 word e-mail . . .
You're not alone, and there are fixes for this:

For the Tilt 2, this doesn't happen. I don't know if it's because of WM 6.5 or something AT&T implemented or what, but the power button has no effect when the keyboard is out. I actually want to find a way to enable that because at times I want to put it in sleep mode while open.
Why do you have your fingers extended?? I never have this problem in my TP2!

um.. to hold it securely?
ummm, not to sound like a smart a$$ but this has been covered n many threads previously...i believe that if u search for "disable power button" ull find ur answer...its a simple .cab installation that disables the power button when the keyboard is extended...hope that helps and good luck

End Call -> Home Screen

Maybe it's just me but I would like to go to my home screen when I end a call instead of back to the dialer/phone. I searched but couldn't find anything on that.
Anyone know how to do this or care to figure it out?
This is too easy....press the hardware End key?
You may want to elaborate if this isn't what you're after...

I take it you're like me and you spam the end key about 5 times at the end of a call?

Ok now I feel stupid. Thanks though, I would probably never have thought of that on my own.
Is it possible to get the onscreen end key to do the same?
I made a post with a similar problem a while back and had no replies to fix it.
The contents are as follows:
Tilt2, End call, looking at contacts! Why?
Tilt2: If i get a call and hit the end call button, why am i left looking at my contacts. It ONLY happens on incoming calls. If i end call on a call i made, from within my contacts, it goes back to the main screen!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=574970
My problem is that i use spb mobile shell and after i end the call, the phone relocks. When i later unlock the phone, i am still looking at the contacts.
Ok I don't feel so stupid. Hardware key does the exact same thing as soft key. Phone isn't fast enough to hit it twice in succesion and lock the screen in one fluid motion so I go back to my original request.
Anyone know how to get it to go from end call (soft or hard butotn) directly to home screen instead of to the dialer?

Not sure if it has anythign to do with it or not, but might it have something to do with the phone asking if you want to add them to your contacts and maybe you are inadvertantly hitting somethign sending you to your contacts?
I've not had any issue with it pulling up my contacts unless I accidently hit something.
Whoops, should read:
My problem is that i use S2U2 and after i end the call, the phone relocks. When i later unlock the phone, i am still looking at the contacts.
Im am positive i am not hitting anything on the screen because sometimes i hit the talk and speaker phone, then use the end call button. We have 2 of these and both do the same thing. It only happens if the phone was locked to start with. If the phone is not locked (figured this out playing them), once i end the call, the contacts screen will go away in 10 seconds or so.

Try this. Hit the End key and then the Back key in quick succession. This will bring you to your last opened window. If you didn't have any active windows, this will bring you back to your home screen.

Mapping a button to end call?

Hey guys,
I'm on stock Desire ROM and have a question:
I don't know if it irks anyone else, but having to press end call on the screen (which can go away, i know it goes to notifications too, but still a little fiddly for my like) annoys me a little. I'd much rather be able to press a button on the desire to end a call quickly rather than fiddling around finding end call.
Is there any way to map a button so that it ends the current call if one is active?
I know you can assign long press of the search key to actions, can you do this with the back button? Could i long press the back button to end calls?
Thanks in advance
Just gotten your desire? 'Cause I found it a bit annoying in the beginning first, plus it was confusing the hell outta me. But I quickly adapted and now I'm used to it.
I've had it for a few months now, but every phone i've had before has had a hardware hangup so i've become quite attached.
