glitch in the contact software
 

I go into my contacts to search I type K then R and it starts to dial a contact every time

anyone else having this issue?

**** Update ****

I contacted htc and they said no one else has called about this issue and i told them id post it here and have you call them.

they will ask if you hard reset the device and to also contact sprint to let them know about the issue.

tested it more its the r key that dials it, seems that once you cancel it it seems to be fine until you come back into it.

Yes and it drives me crazy!

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

good find.. yah it does that on mine too when not using the slideout keyboard.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I don't have this problem...do you have any matches which pop up for that letter combo (I don't)?

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Huh, can't reproduce it on mine...

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

wat rom

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I have one, but it does not call her, calls someone else.. Weird I wonder if it's any 3rd party app or script that causes this.

Going to wait till other report in if they have this problem, before I do a full backup and hard reset to see if the problem exist.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

At this stage if we're not in the Upgrades forum, I think it's pretty safe to assume stock. Almost nobody's running custom on this baby yet. I haven't seen any compelling ROMs or reasons to yet, considering how well it runs already, and since the only fully-functional ROMs are merely there for cooking purposes and don't add new builds of the OS or other improvements.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Just an FYI, I did a hard reset Sunday and it did it to me again today. I'd like to know what causes it but it can be pretty embarrassing if you don't end the call immediately.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

just checked mine, and it dialed someone. weird.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

hmm mine doesnt do this

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

i am glad its not just me. and cool i found a bug.

but it is a pain when going through my contacts, i wonder if any other contacts do it.

its worse than i thought , if you do it and its almost every 2 letters you have contacts in it dials the number so it is worse than i thought.

did it in ar, ac , mr , lr , br

what a pain in the ***

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I can confirm this bug is real.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

if you go into your contacts press the r key and it will dial

so its either the touch screen or software

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Did a hard reset and when I press 'K' 'R' it did not dial anymore. The bad news is now it dials with 'C' 'R'.

Hmm....

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

it seems to be the letter r, i did a search with just the letter r and it dialed right away

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

That would make sense because my family name starts with "r" and when I add them in to my speed dial, that's when the speed dial takes over. :)

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I have the same glitch too. It dials for ar, mr, lr, but not ac. Hopefully HTC fixes this issue. Although I don't really use the on-screen keyboard, it's kine da annoying. I dont' have this problem with the hard keys.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

hmm... i tried it and it didnt doit, then i kept trying and it dialed once. now i cant reproduce the problem anymore.... wierd... o wels. i dont use the on screen keyboard anyways.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

yup mine does it too. confirmed ;(

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I have the same glitch as well...

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

My TP is not having that problem.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

confirmed it does it with R

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I dont have this issue

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Anyone else having this issue?

1. Thumb over to 'People'
2. Touch left soft button 'All People'
3. Open up Soft Keyboard (mine set to full qwerty)
4. Press 'R'

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I'm having the same problem as well. Every time i press an "R" on the software keyboard it dials the first person in my contacts list, which is 411, Google

this might help someone not call an Ex or your Boss, but it still wastes minutes if you're unaware and for some reason type "R" during the day, i hope HTC or Sprint can push a patch, aswell as update other shortcomings i.e Opera 9.5(without having to manually update, to post in forums)

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Mine also does this, that is really weird.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I have the same problem.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

It's happening for me as well. Dials the first contact.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

confirmed here too

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

confirmed here also... build date of 10/19 . booooo i was getting so happy with my TP too! :angry7:

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

my 11/7/08 does this as well.

Add this to the tons of bugs/defects, I guess.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

It's happening to me too. No biggie though.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

How is this not a "biggie?" A bug takes control of your phone and dials someone. Seems pretty big to me.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I'm so glad I found this thread. This is my first touch screen phone and I thought I was just messing up when I was finding contacts by accidentally hitting some other key! Can't wait until there is a fix.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

same glitch here, doubt i'll run into it very often but its annoying knowing its there

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Whoah! Crazy stuff. Mine does it too.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

Mine does the same thing with the r dialing first contact.
I didn't notice until i was reading through and found this topic and tried it.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

HTC really needs to fix this with a rom update or something. It's pretty damn annoying.

Re: glitch in the contact software
 

I contacted HTC about this. Basically, they said they will log it as an issue. They also told me to contact Sprint. I did, and the tech said I should exchange it at Best Buy (where I bought it) since I'm within my 30 days.
