The title says it all, is there any way to disable the call log from popping up after a call with the stock ICS dialer? I'd rather just have the phone go back to where it was or even just to the home screen. It's rather annoying when receiving a call when using navigation and having to switch back after ending a call, in many places (such as where I live) I would have to pull over to the side of the road and switch back in order to avoid a hefty fine. Also, I'd rather not have whomever I'm with see my call log if I have my phone mounted on my dash.
If there is no way with the stock ROM are there any custom ROMs that allow this?
Thanks.
not call log
I used to use an app called not call log, but I'm not sure if its compatible with ics.
Well... if you're just looking to go to the homescreen after a call... go to call log --> settings --> Exit To Home on End Call (Checked). Sorry, I don't know if this works on stock or on particular roms, but I'm running AOKP b25 and it has this feature.
Also, after your call ends and you are now seeing the call log, just press back and it takes you back to whatever you were doing prior. The activity stack stays in tact, it just adds call log to the top of it.

Using CM6 and I have a annoying issue. I don't know if this was intended as a feature or maybe just an issue on my part. I'd like to be able to go into call log, tap on a missed call/contact, and have it automatically call.
If I want to call my gf I have to long press her name and select call. Is there a way to enable this. I check through the call log preferences and didn't see anything.
Basically need to tap on a contact in my call log and automatically call them. I DON'T want to have to long press.
Judging on it's behavior it looks like it was intended this way.
I think it threads calls by day, and if there were multiple calls in that day you click on you're going to expand the thread.
Otherwise clicking on the call then I get the option to call in the next screen... so 2 maybe 3 clicks at most.
I don't think it is an issue, but the design. I could understand you just want to click to call but it gives you multiple options when clicking on the missed call.

Or you could just open the Phone app, Press Menu >> Preferences, scroll down to Call Log, and click "Show Dial Button".
Nahh... you're right, it's intended that you should be forced to long-press.
Yeah I always redial from my call log so its annoying. Thanks that worked I saw that option but didn't know what it meant. This works perfect.

If you press the arrow on the right side of the call log, it will call that person.
Has anyone else besides me had a lot of mistaken calls because the phone decides to go to the contacts lists after a call ends? It's happened to me at least three times today.
In older versions of Android, you had to tap a contact's name, which took you to another page, which had a small phone icon to call. or a long press brought up a menu. In ICS, just touching a name in the contacts list makes a call. It's kind of frustrating that I have to be extra careful after a call now, and manually back out of the list.
So, is there a way to make it go home after a call ends? What kind of hackery would this require to the dialer apk?
On my Droid Incredible/Gingerbread I could configure whether the phone went to the call log or not after a call, but my Galaxy Nexus 4.0.2 always goes to the call log - this is especially annoying when I'm using the phone to navigate and get a call, when the call ends you don't just go back to the navigation. Anyone see a way to configure this that I missed?
Definitely interested in this as well
There is an app called "Not Call Log" which can take you to the home screen, dialer or open an app after hanging up. If you use Tasker, you can also set it to do anything with a "phone idle" condition (that may not make sense if you're not familiar with tasker).

Even though the call log appears, i believe the activity stack is is still maintained meaning after your call ends just press back twice, the second leaves the call log back to your prior activity.
Loving the phone...can't wait for JB....
Right now, running stock AT&T ROM...I'm got a few issues / bugs to report...wondered if anyone else sees these or knows a fix:
1. The notification sound for Calendar reminders can't be changed. It lets me pick a new / custom sound but it does not save the setting. Everytime I go back in it is back to the default.
2. Incoming calls - often as soon as I grab the phone (usually from my pocket but sometimes when it was just sitting on a table) the call is rejected as if I bumped something to do this. Only the phone is locked and I did not hit any buttons. I really doubt I keep hitting the red reject slider and sliding it across the phone accidently....not sure what is going on.
3. Texts - they seem to not come thru sometimes and I also rarely hear the notification or feel the vibration.
Anyone else having these issues?
Bump

1. Are you pressing the "OK" button (next to the "cancel" button) on the calendar ring tone selection screen? I've confused myself and pressed the "back" softkey, which wasn't lit up, since it was below the "OK" button thinking i was pressing ok (or because I often unthinkingly default to pressing back to exit a screen). Otherwise this should be working, if it really isn't saving you have a buggy device...
2. I've only had the phone a few days and picking up calls has been no problem (stock rom, not rooted yet).
3. I feel you on the text alerts, but i get them on time and get a vibration just not the default vibration "tone" i selected. Generally late text messages aren't an issue with the phone more likely the provider, but your two issues above may indicate the device is at fault.
I can't change my notification sound on calendar either. I called Samsung and they said to hard reset. I guess their tech support is just as useless as Motorola's. I wish I could be that lazy at my job; "well customer I see you have a problem, have you tried putting it back in the box and pulling i back out? That's all I can recommend."
Thanks...

Definitely hitting okay....it shows the correct ring tone....but when I go back into settings it is gone.
Answering calls is getting better....disabled the motion controls and some other things to make it hard to accidently reject the call.
We'll See...

Hoping Samsung's Jelly Bean release fixes these issues....or maybe a patch release or two after JB. If not, I will try CM10 or a JB-based AOKP build when they get a little more polished.
This issue is fixed in the latest ATT OTA update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294
Thanks!

Thanks for point this out! I had forgotten about it! The fix seems to have worked for me. Would be nice if all undocumented fixes like this were in one neat bullet-ed list for us to review....
Nah, then Samsung would have to acknowledge that they told a bunch of gullable people to factory reset for nothing
Hi there,
This maybe a stupid question.. but is there a way to get the stock incoming call popup that comes form the top like whatsapp that you get on various devices running stock android on htc sense instead of the full screen display on an incoming call?? Its intrusive, and most importantly it causes problems when i'm working on something and decline the call by accident just because i was going to tap on that area at that time.
Thanks
