T-Mobile TP2: Deleting calls

Cant figure out how to delete a call from the call history. I can only clear all calls. Does anyone know how to delete a single call? Thanks

Only thing i could see is that when you go into call history press the little card icon to the right of the caller you wanna delete and that will show all the calls from that number. then at the bottom press menu and select delete all. That will delete all the calls from that particular number or person i guess.

Ya I figured that part out...but there has to be a way to delete just a single call. Anyone else? Maybe this option is available on a cooked rom? I'm going to be flashing a new one on the phone this weekend
I played around with it and couldn't figure it out. What I wanna know is why you wanna delete a call! Is it a mistress phone number!?
Pull up your dialer & on the bottome left side there's a Call History icon. this'll let you delete individual calls. Also, there is no mention of this instance of Call History in the manual.
Now you can delete all traces of your mistress.

I have the dutch rom so i don;t know if the translation is good, but go to:
Start -> All -> Contacts -> Select the contact who had called you -> Tab on last call -> Menu -> Delete call

my thoughts exactly.
btw, since some of you have the Tmo TP2 with PIE as the default browser, would you mind trying out a CAB i made to make Opera the default?

Delete single phone number

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").

Voice command is enabled.
Messaging and phone are checked off
Notifications tab: Announce notifications through device speaker or wired headset

Well I know under the "phone" options (button), you have to maually select "announce incoming calls", but you may have already done that as well. Other than that I'm not sure why it's not working for you..
There's a little too many menus on this thing.
Settings -> Personal -> Button has "Voice Command" selected for Send Key (Hold).
Settings -> Personal -> Phone: I see nothing for incoming calls.
I don't quite know where to look for this option. Also, once there, will there be an option for reading text messages too?

sorry silly, I didn't describe that very well
settings-personal-voice command (same place you probably saw the settings mentioned in your first post). Highlight "Phone" in that list, then hit the "Options" button to the right. On the following screen, check "announce incoming calls".
Also, do the same for the "Messaging" item in that list...hightlight it and hit "Options" again. This time, make sure "High priority messages only" is unchecked.
Those are the only other voice-command related settings that I didn't hear you mention already.
awesome.. worked wonders. i didn't know each separate listing had options. weird voice though lol. thanks

Awesome, glad it's working! Yes, the interface isn't very smooth, and that voice leaves something to be desired. If you want to adjust the speed that it reads to you (I slowed mine down), there's a setting for that in Advanced Config (the app)
I've got no 'voice command' anything on my phone?

Are you using a stock ROM? I wasn't aware that there were any that didn't include MSVC. You can try the attached cab to add it, but first check in Settings -> All Settings -> Personal to be positive that you don't already have it.
I'm using that ROM from the HTC website from March.

Gotcha, I just thought it was packed in any 6.x OEM ROM. Did the cab work for you?
All I have is Buttons, Phone, Input and Keyboard Sliding Sound.
I'll try the cab.

Call ignoring!!

Hi!
I'm newbie here and after searching all threads and found nothing so I'm looking for an app that can ignore a call from a blackilist of numbers without showing anything on the phone's display but also without hanging up the caller! There is an iphone app giving this "ignore" option called iBlacklist if I'm helping!!
Thanks!!
pamarakos
Goto "settings > call settings > all calls > auto reject"
Don't want to reject and show it to him, meaning hang up!!!
Just want to ignore him!!!
I found this:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/call-blocker-gold/blacknWhite.CallBlocker.Gold
There is an option "silence", which should do the job.
There is Easy Filter, block calls and or sms.
Search it on the market.

Call log? How to not have sms log to it?

Just wondering if anyone has looked at this in the official Froyo? I text a bunch and don't want that logged in the phone log.
yes, it's REALLY annoying
I have NO clue why the developers thought this was GOOD
You can hit the menu button when in the call log and then 'View by' and change what's shown, but unfortunately, there's no option that will give you only 'all call info' regardless if you dialed, received/answered or missed them.
Yeah this much Ive found, but I've also found it isn't a persistant setting, doesn't stay (and I haven't figured out what causes to to default back to show all.)
This might be the one dumbest things about this release.
