When I call up the phone, i get a list of recent calls (not the missed call view, just recent calls in the keypad view). DPad right or left on an entry changes the right had indicator next to the name from <m> to <w> and even <txt>. I get the m & w (mobile or work numbers), but when on <txt> I expect that touching the name, or pressing the green key, should result in sending a text message - not.
Any ideas how this works?

I'm going nuts here. After searching google and this forum I simply can't find a way to bring up my call history. Ie the full log that you can see when you have a missed called and you click the phone with an exclamation mark in the top bar of the phone.
I know I can view history for individuals in the contact manager but how do I bring up the full log?
With normal ROM?
I remember it was something like pressing Dial button (green button) and then press UP on your pad.
ps. Hi all on the forums, after reading here for some time i decided to post aswell
If it's the stock rom the icon is on the today screen to the right of the text message icon. Otherwise in the dialer app it's the icon that looks like a phone with and arrow wrapped around it just below the video call icon. Hope this helps.
Press the green dial button and up or right pad button. It will open the call log. Alternatively, on the dialer screen, there is a call history button below the backspace and video call button.
Cheers.
out of nowhere...when im in landscape mood...i type in the 10 digit number im about to send a text to..then i hit the D pad down...and no nothing happens...it always would scroll down to the text box and then i would start typing now i just stays in the box where i insert the phone number...
any fix =\
I'm assuming you've checked it isn't just a case of the d-pad no longer following the screen orientation? As in if you press what has become 'left' on the d-pad, the cursor focus doesn't helpfully go down a line as you need?
when i click on 2 numbers as a short cut for a name and click on it, it immediately dial it instead of opening the contact, problem is i have more than a number for one contact and sometimes i want to dial the other number is there any tweak for this???? i really appreciate any help as it frustrate me dialing when i am in a hurry...
i know i could click right/left to change the number but somehow the numbers keeps changing fast like it's malfunction.
Same problem, I find autumatic dial very anoying
Is there any way to disable it and only dial by pressing the dial key ?
Thankxxxx
You can TRY to click the arrows left&right of the humber description. It should look something like this:
[NAME] < mobile number >
After pressing on of the arrows:
[NAME] < work number >
But the arrows are very small. Gesture doesn't work unfortunately. You can also use the DPAD down buttons to select the contact you like to call and then use the DPAD left or right arrow to switch between numbers for that contact. But I hate the DPAD
I would like it if you could just click and hold the contact and be able to switch numbers from the context menu...
Is there a setting somewhere that allows you to use the green illuminated call (button?) that is in the same place as the end call button which does work? I find the thumb stretch it takes to initiate the call by pressing the photo a nuisance.
The one feature I hate the most of my Z3C is this:
A call comes in, and I start fumbling with trying to wipe away screens (notifications, messaging, any given app that's open) so I can get to the accept call window where I can swipe left to right, red to green, and answer the call!
Is there an app or setting (I use Xperia and Nova launchers) I can activate to prioritize incoming calls so they will show over any other app that may be open? This is especially frustrating in low light or mobile/car situations where cleaning up my desktop quick enough to answer a call before it goes to VM is about the last thing I want to do.

An incoming call always shows up on top of everything else. If it doesn't then you've done something to your phone.

I am sorry, but It does not, unless by "showing up" you mean that tiny strip with even tinier wording and symbols on top of the tiny (5") screen?
Try this: Put up the "Notifications" screen, or even the blank home screen. Then have someone call your phone. Now a small strip with a tiny phone symbol and even tinier wording " accept" or "decline" appears at the top; if you are not in the home screen, that prompt disappears within two seconds. If I want to answer the call when not in home screen, I have to swipe away several open screens of activities to get to that small phone prompt again before I can finally answer the phone.
The only way to get the big swipe-left-to-right, from red to green phone prompt is by first finding and pressing the phone symbol on my home screen (after first having to get back to the home screen, when other screens are up!)
But I want this symbol to prioritize the screen, automatically, every time, regardless of other screen activity.
How do I prioritize and superimpose the big red/green answer prompt over any of my current screen(s)? I want a simple "answer this call now" prompt, not a multi-step fumbling exercise to access the main function of this device!
Any help out there?
