All,
After I get a phone call from a number I don't have in my contacts, I get the usual menu to add the number as a new contact or add it to an existing contact.
When I was using the stock ROM or Josh's Basic Black ROM this worked great. Now that I have switched to ENERGY it isn't working any more... I can push the button on the screen, but nothing ever happens, eventually, I just hit cancel and enter a new contact manually. Same issue if I click the little "+" button beside the number in call history.
Anyone have any advice to get this to work?
Cheers
Install the attached cab file, restart, and see if that fixes it.

Is it possible cancel a single phone number instead of all calls or all the calls for a contact?
I have italian ROM version 1.19.408.1.
Thanks in advance
are you talking about deleting a call in the call history? if so, here's how to hide your mistress' calls.
Press the send key to pull up the phone app & then the bottom left of the dialer there is a Call History button. that will bring up all the individual calls & you can select & delete & hide your affair.
enjoy

Thanks for your answer but your advice doesn't work in my phone with the european rom reported above. I need to delete a single phone to a dialer and not all the phone calls to that dialer.
FOr exampke if I call a friend 10 times and he can't answer I will found in my call history all the 10 calling and this generates confusion, so I want to be free to delete wath I want in my history call to obtain the better information I need.
If in the future, as you mention , I will need to make some "mistress calls" I will use a first generation phone (never a pocket PC phone ) and another sim card but it is not time yet .
Thanks in advance for your cooperation
Call you post a screenshot of what pops up when you press the Call History icon on the dialer? I'd like to see if it's the same as mine.
This was a feature I was also looking for.
I found this on a ROM with Manila 2.5. I apologize but I forgot which one. The ROM was a bit unstable so I am presently using another. I will PM the OP with the ROM I used.
---edit---
It was a ROM with Manila 2.5 build 23049
You can delete all calls to an individual caller (or all calls to all callers) but on Manila 2.1 it is not possible to delete a single call to that caller.

It is possible on 2.1 doing what i described. from the Phone/Dialer, press the bottom left icon for Call History & it will bring up individual calls (sort of like the old WM way) & you can press & hold a single call & it will pop up with an option to delete or you can do it through the Menu.

Wow... I can't believe it was right in front of my eyes the whole time! I was going through my call history from the 6.1 contacts.
Thanks
And for the record, it's the icon directly to the left of the Talk button when you bring up the dialer.
The icon to the left of TALK button on my TP2 toggles between voice calls and video calls. There is no Call History icon
Call History can be called up using the right softkey Menu > Call History, or click on the icon to the right of the call entry, which only gives me the option to delete all calls to that particular caller.
hmm, must be a US only thing then.

Yes, I can't find it on my European version of the TP2.
I think freakingwilly did mention a way to do it: through the 'Contacts' app in the 'All Programs' list.
t's a bit fiddly, but the way I've done it is:
1. Press the Phone/Send key to get a list of recent calls, and hit the button to the right side of that entry to get to the Contact Details page
2. Once you're there, press 'More' in the Information section
3. This will bring you out of TouchFLO into Windows Mobile 6.1 page for that contact
4. Tap on 'Last Call' (this will only be present if there is any call history to see)
5. You'll see a list of last calls for that contact which you can delete individually.
Note that this only works if that number is in your phonebook contact list - I haven't found a way to delete unknown callers short of saving them to my phonebook first.

Correct !
Indeed, it's a US thing.
The simplest thing I've found is simply to exist TF3D/Sense. I have installed the Darkness Toggler for TF3D Sense/Titanium/SpbShell. Once out of Sense, the option to hold down and delete individual calls is there.
I have US Tmo 6.5 rom. Press and hold does not bring up any menu for me and the moment I let it go, it simply dials that number for me.
@see_u_then:
What you described comes from the TF3D-Sense. Once you get quit sense, you will get the option to delete. As I said in the note above yours, I simply toggle between shells (TF3D/Spb Shell/Titanium). I get the option in all shells (or no shell) except in TF3D-Sense.
(As an aside, it's interesting that they removed this option in the TF3D-Sense2.1. The option was there in the WM6.1/TF3D Manila2.1 version that I had before the "update").
Hi all i was wondering if anyone else has this problem or if its just my phone.
First i have a touch pro 2 with windows 6.5 running rom version 2.01.573.3
now... when i place a call to a number that is not in my phone book when i end the call it asks if I want to create new contact or add number to an existing one, it then lets me choose the contact i want to add it to but as soon as i choose them it takes me to a screen that asks for me to manually put the contact info in and even if i put the same name it creates a separate contact. Can some one help me please?
sooooooooo no one can confirm or deny this is a normal problem. or suggest a way to fix it?
I have the same issue. i am using stock T-Mobile ROM on 6.1. I haven't been able to locate a fix for it on the forum.
I do not encounter this issue. It seems to work just fine.
1. Tap "Yes, To existing contact"
2. Choose the contact.
3. A new window with an image of the person, along with the new number of what type of number it is.
4. Choose what type of number it is, hit "Save" and i'm done. Its added to the existing contact.
Running a cooked ROM with Windows Mobile 6.5 and TouchFLO 2.1.
Had this problem with my hero as well.
How do you take a number down if you are on a call?
ie if on a call asking for a number from the other person how do you write it down and use it for next call?
On nokias, the number you input stays after you hang up, so you can call, save etc.. But on Android, when you hang up the number you input disappears too!
AM i missing a way to do it (short of saving it to contacts (which i might not want to do), or dialling and hanging up)?
you can tap the number you enter which will dial the number you entered followed by immediately ending the call which will store it in your call history and return you to the original call all in about 2 secs. Not exactly elegant but works.
thats pretty much what i do, but its so silly to do it that way I thought ther MUST be a better way. I mean its not exactly a rare or unusual feature to need, is it? ;-)
I normally use a pen......Have done for a while now and it never fails
This applies to the stock dialer - don't know if it works like this on Sense.
Press Add Call, enter the digits. Now long-press the entered number. Select cut or copy. Then back button to cancel Add Call. After the call is over you can paste it back into the dialer the same way or into a contact.
Just tried, didnt work, no long press, any press just dials the number...
Now you've reminded me of another question:
The software usuuuaaaallly recognises number formats in emails or texts, and hyperlinks them to the dialer. HOWEVER Ive never been able to PASTE a number (copied from somehwere that the software didnt recognise as a number) into the sense dialer. Anyone can confirm this is not possible?
I'm unable to paste too on FroYo.

Ah, well it was worth a shot. I haven't spent more than a few minutes on a Sense phone so I'm not so well-acquainted with how the dialer works. I can confirm that the stock dialer of both Milestone's Eclair and N1's Froyo has an editable text field, in which one can long-press to get the "Edit Text" popup.
Can a Sense Android use an alternate dialer app?
there are thousands of notes apps thats what there for lol i think even htc has a notes widget for sence (i cant remember) neway yeah use your apps
There is an app which specifically does what you want. It's called Number Saver and it shows up in the notification bar whenever you make a call.
cool, will check it out!
Always weird that someone has to come up with an app for some function that should have been there to begin with, oh well!
I'm not at the same place as the phone so bear with me. How do you add a contact in ec05. I could figure it out in seconds if i had the phone in my hand so i'm operating blind. The obvious of go to contact program them hit menu key then add contact, she says there's no option to add contact. She's used to di18 way of doing things. Did it change?

May have to re-sync her accounts. I saw someone else post that after the update they had to re-login to their Google account.
Already been done.
When you placing a call you can save it right before you hit call
also after call is ask do you want to add as contact
or go to call log press on that number dialed and at the bottom it ask "add to contact"
All she has to do is go to contacts, and next to the search there is a + button. Tell her to press this and that's how to add a contact.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yeah, she finally figured it out. Kinda wierd for it to not be like the old one of go to dialer and enter phone number. Right above that it says + add contact. I will have to look at it later but she said you can't bring up contacts program then menu key then add contact. That makes no logical sense to me.
The plus sign mentioned above is one way but also on mine with EC05 I pull up the dialer and enter a number and directly below the number just entered is a bar that says "add to contacts"
So...I get a call from someone I don't know, the number is there is my call log, I would like to save this number to a new or existing contact, and...WOW there is no way to do it! I highlight it like I used to, but the only option is to delete the call from the log. Not only can I not create a contact from the call log, but I cant copy it to paste later in the contacts area. I have also found out that I can't paste:confused into the dial pad anymore. This is a pain when I am online and copy a number I need to call. Now I have to use pen and paper to write the numbers down to accomplish both of these things.
The lack of the menu button is a bit of a sad thing too. I miss it over there to the left of the center button. Now I have no easy way to see what I can do within any given area.
I know these issues seem small, but I have had the phone for 3 days, and it's bugging me.
Just touch on the called number and the options to create or update are there. The menu button is now on the upper right and its called MORE.
