CallHistoryMax issue

rex · #1 (**permalink**) 08-29-2007, 11:35 AM

Has anyone found out how to truly make the call history unlimited. yes I do know about the registry tweak with CallHistoryMax set to 65535. but even that does not let more than 300 calls in the call history. i go through 300 calls in less than a week.I have searched far and wide at every ppc forum but i dont see any comments beyond the 300 call limit.
can any of the programming gurus/geeks (Helmi?? Colone???) pleez findout/ let me know if there is any real way of making the call history unlimited. having been with treo, this is a luxury hard to give up.

I have now PIMback that backs up twice a week. still seems too cumbersome to have to restore call history to look up a number.

Pleeez help if anyone knows anything.

thanks
Rex.

Is this still after you go to your phone call history and go to call timers and set it to never delete? I dont knwo if something as simple as that would work. But then again I didnt know it would only save 300 calls.

There is a application called CallCalender. This application makes a entry in your mobile calender for every call you make/get/miss. This app creates a private appointment on your calender and mentioned the duration of the call , phone number and type (incoming/outgoing/missed). You can then sync the calender to your desktop and then have a log of all the call you made. No history limit.

Hope that helps.

thats true, I forgot all about that one, good call. Ive got it on my 6700 and it works excellent. It doesnt have an application folder or anything in the start menu, it runs in the background and does just as he says, records and documents when, how long and what number the call was.

I just tried call calender. It seemed to mess up my calender with a lot of entries. But I now have it set to filter out phonecall entries so i can see them only when i need to. So i guess in one way it has worked... Thanks Rajiv and Weedahoe.
But I still think we should be able set the call log to unlimited. that info should be embedded somewhere inside the program. i was hoping that with all the really impressive programming guru's here, we should have a more direct solution.
anyways, if anyone has any other ideas please send it my way.
Thanx
