I feel like such a noob for asking this but I can't figure it out.
How do I reject an incoming call when the screen is locked? I want to let the call go thru immediately to voicemail.
I have tried:
- turning the phone face down (which silences the ringer but doesn't reject the call)
- swiping up (this seems to work on some other phones but not the Defy)
Is there some setting I am missing? All I can do is unlock the screen and then hang up on the person - not very polite, and they don't even go thru to voicemail!
Oops sorry I figured it out ... it's the POWER button.
Doh!
there should be a green and a red slider, slide the red one.

I thought the power button was doing the same thing as the red bar, it goes to voice mail after u press it?

Solved, thanks

Yeah that works too - and I did try this the first time, but probably my swiping skills are poor.
I've changed the thread title to 'Solved'
Thanks to all.
I really feel like a dumb noob

I've tried several custom roms, but unless I'm just blind, I cannot seem to find a button that allows you to make outgoing calls without going through several menu options to bring up the phone app. Shouldn't there be a button on the main screen that lets you make calls?
Green call hard button right under the screen.

Thanks. I got so use to the soft call button on the stock rom that I forgot about the hard buttons altogether.
Is it possible to make it so pressing the power button when on the phone would hang up the call? It would be much more convenient to hang up this way then having to wait for the screen to light up, press the end button, and then hit the power button to darken the screen.

Yes it is an option. Hit menu>settings>accesibility>power button ends call
(it's the bottom option)
Throw me a thanks

Do you have to do this while in a call? In the normal settings panel, I don't have anything under Accessibility. I was prompted to install Talkback, but that didn't add anything like a Power Button Ends Call option.
I don't believe that Sense has the option for power button controls, the other poster must be using an AOSP ROM, which does allow for you to tick the option to end a call using the power button.

Damn that sucks!
Just got the a100, is there a way to disable the power button LED when it comes to notifications? As soon as i get email it comes on.
Try turning off notifications in the Settings screen. That also stops the Home button from flashing.
Unfortunately that also stops tray notifications as well.

I would find it useful if it flashed when the screen is off. . . but that isn't the case. If the screen is off, it doesn't flash, and if the screen is on, it is annoying when it flashes. It is very annoying to me.

Hi does anyone know how to make it so the screen turns on automatically when an incoming call comes? Right now, I have my phone on vibrate so I know an incoming call is coming, but I have to press the power button to see the screen and swipe to answer the call. Is there a way so the screen can come on automatically?
Also, is there a way to keep the screen black during the call, unless I press the power button? RIght now, when I'm talking to someone on speaker phone, the screen stays on or comes back on if I move the phone close to my face. Any suggestions are welcome.
Sounds like you have a problem with your proximity sensor...

Do you know how to fix that? I would like the screen to come on as soon as a call comes. Typically I have to wait for at least 2-3 rings.

What ROM are you on?
Im on the stock rom rooted.
Hey guys, really appreciate the help, in advance, seriously.
Well, I'll get right to it, if I'm in a middle of a call, mid-conversation, as you'd say I just can't open up the phone..
What i mean is, when I start the call the screen goes black, as usual, since its next to my ear, and if I want to check something
in the middle of the conversation (for example a number I wrote down) - I press the power button to "awaken" the phone but the screen
stays black. Only when the other person hangs up can I go back to doing whatever I did...
Any fix to this?
