inadvertent phone calls
I'm having a continuing major problem with inadvertent phones calls from my Mogul. The green telephone icon button is apparently being activated when the phone is in its belt attached cover when I bend over. It redials the last number called and last night I'm being billed for a 48 minute call!
This happens not that infrequently. I tried S2Unlock but that program seemed to have issues with tyring to answer incoming phone calls. Does anyone know of a way/registry tweak or whatever to: 1. disable the "last number redial" function of that hard button? 2. or, perhaps preventing the tel. numbers from being saved 3. or some other software solution? This one cost me $18 because it took me over the limit on the last day of my plan's month. Thanks!! Jack |
Re: inadvertent phone calls
I just use the Titan's built-in Device Lock on the today screen. It has worked fairly well for me so far.
I'm not sure about other carriers, but on my Sprint branded phone I have it. If you don't see it, you can check to see if you have it going to: Start->Settings->Today. Then select the "Items" tab on the bottom and select the checkbox for "Device Lock". |

Re: inadvertent phone calls
there is an option to engage the lock when the pwr button is pushed, and the left softkey will start the unlock.
I personally rely on s2u2 to lock my phone, but there are some other good projects in the works too.

Re: inadvertent phone calls
lol, it's been so long since i've used that lock, I'm not the best help with that one..
there should be a "Key Lock" in Settings\System |
Re: inadvertent phone calls
the buttons tab in setting is where you can map it to any button..

Re: inadvertent phone calls
I had this same exact issue. When I hit the power button to shut the screen off I would accidentally hit the button on the left side that calls people. I am sure this is probably your problem too. Once I disabled that button it hasn't happened since.

The two upper left side buttons don't activate the phone. But the lower fornt left one does redial last number called. |
Re: inadvertent phone calls
just to let everyone know, when the lock button is engaged and if you get a phone call if you are walking and you hit the talk button with your leg, it does answer. i would have thought that this was almost impossible for the timing to be right, but ive answered many a call not knowing it and the wrong person gets an earful..especially the wrong girl. yikes
