Confirmation before making a new call

Hi all,
I wanted to ask you if there is any way to get some kind of confirmation before making a new phone call. It happens to me quite often that I tap accidentally on contact in HTC phone dialer (or sometimes it does the same when my PDA wakes up in my pocket) and it will start to dial the number immediately. I like the way how original MS dialer is doing it - it will at least display a window with contact information where you can select between different phone numbers. I know how to change the phone skin to MS dialer, but when using MS dialer sking you are not able to adjust phone volume when call is established.
Do you have any tips and trick how to avoid accidental calls?
Thx!

Why don't you just keep your handset locked?
Long press of call end key

[UTIL]In Call Screen Lock Like Omnia

This tool acts like a screen locker during all call.

This one is very useful to see how call going but dont have any troubles about accident screen taps. And every moment you can unlock screen to press something. Hardware buttons does not locked.

So you need first install SDKCERTS.CAB from attach
Also, if something will wrong with this hooking, you can return full functionality to touchscreen only by disabling tool touchscreen driver.
You can do it, using PC tool pregutil from XdaUtils.
You need to make ActiveSync connection with phone and then run:
Code:
pregutl.exe -d HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH :DriverName
then SoftReset the phone.
In any case, Hard Reset will restore your phone.
Problems with installing driver make that touch screen will not have any response for taps.

Call Screen Issue

Okay, I need some help please. When I make a call from the call screen, put it up to my ear, the phone will go back to the home screen. This happens regardless of the length of time I hold it away from my ear. The is very frustrating when you need to enter numbers on the key pad or use the other options you have. Anyone know how to fix this?

+1
Mmm, to short, so typing on a little bit
Same problem here, so if somebody has a solution...

I notice the problem on the Sprint version but on the ATT version I do not have that issue. Anyone have any advice?

I have the same problem on a HTC Touch Pro2 WWE (europe)

Fixed
Go to settings and select lock, change "prompt if device is unused" to 0 minutes. I had it on 2 hours. Creates some other issues, like requiring you use a password often, but at least it doesn't go back to the home screen while you are in a call.

If this issue is related to having the Simple PIN lock activated, then the solution is to deactivate the security lock. This is really aggravating when the PIN lock is Exchange-server enforced (some employers insist that the phone has security).
Personally I can understand your frustration as I found this was particularly annoying.
More information about this (and related Home Tab issues) here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=82944
The problem has been reported as a bug to HTC, and it has been fixed on the official ROMs that use Windows Moble 6.5. See here: http://forums.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=175297

ATT Tilt 2 rom problems

Hello everyone,
I just bought my ATT tilt 2 and I have a few issues that I would like to address. If you guys can help me address them it would be greatly appreciated.
(1) When I get a call and message at the same time, my phone doesn't stop vibrating even when I am in a call and the other end can hear a buzzing noise.
(2) In my message tab, I have a '1' icon showing that i have a new message but I have no new message. I even deleted all the messages and still it does not go away. Therefore TouchFLO is also showing me '1' new message all the time.
(3) In my previous phone (omnia), I could hit any of the front hardward key to light up the phone then I could unlock it. but that feature does not seem to work in this phone, I have to everytime hit the power key to go in and out, therefore I find no use for the lock feature. I changed the setting for it to never go on standby but then the screen always on (low visibility) and that would probably use up alot of battery.
Any fixes for these problem?
I do not mind changing ROMs but I have no idea which ones are stable and how to go about changing them. I can look up on how to change them but I need to know what people are happy with. I do not want to keep changing ROMs.
Thanks Alot for your help

Have to push power button to wake up device
I have a TILT2 and it sucks to have to push the power button to wake it up. Does anyone know how to modify this?
I would like to push one of the front buttons to wake it up as they are more accessible.
Thanks.

Number 1 is weird. Maybe try a hard reset.
Number 2: Go to Start>Settings>Today do to "Items" tab. Uncheck TouchFlo3D, and check Messaging. Hit OK, and go back to the Today screen. There should be some stupid welcome message from Microsoft in the text messages (for some reason doesn't show in TF3D). Delete it, and you can go back into the Settings and turn TF3D back on. The "1" message icon should be gone
I had the same problem, and this worked for me.

number three:
Try this link from XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578061&highlight=wake+device+button
If you want to wake up TP2 by any hardware keys, please try: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD "KeyLock" = 0 (default is 1) then Reset..

htc dialer sometimes not working

hi there,
so, as said in the title, sometime when I try to make a call, pressing the lower left key (I guess it's called "dialer button"), the htc dialer does not show up. I will need to enter some other contact application to show up those and make a call. afterwards, it's working again.
anyone else with this kind of problem?
cheers,
abprie
