I have done some testing on this today. I made 15+ calls to the phone, both with the Data Connection On and the Data Connection Off.

Here is what I found. If the Data Connection is Off, no problem answering a call either with the Hard Key or the Answer button. But if the Data Connection is On, whether active or not (white or greyed arrows), the call cannot be answered on the first press - many times, not at all. Update: It is not the number of presses. Rather there is a delay from the first press until the call is answered. Several presses only gives the illusion that the extra presses are what causes the call to be answered.

That is the problem. Please try it yourself to confirm. The question is, who has the fix? Diamond Tweak is installed, but I do not think that it is the software itself, though it could be one of the registry settings that Diamond Tweak applies when it is run. Seems as though I read about a similar problem with the GSM versions a month or two ago on XDA.

Update: XDA a has a thread on this, but the recommendations did not help. I will continue searching. I did learn that it is not the number of presses that will determine whether the call will be answered. It is the time delay before it answers. Press once or 10 times. Does not matter. When you press several times, you only "think" that it is making the phone answer. Try it. Just press once. After a 2 or 3 second delay it will answer, if the first press was early enough. If not, it will go to voicemail.

Also, don't bother switching to the Windows default dialer. That does not help. So far, the only thing that works is making sure the Data Connection is OFF. That works every time.
