Calling numbers from SMS - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

When reading my text messages, sometimes I just want to call that person. How can I do that?
Thanks,
Jon

I asked the same question a few weeks ago... have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415728
I fell foul of someones bad mood, but got the answer I needed along the way. Like you I didn't think it was a very obvious method either... hey ho!

Thank you!

I guess it has been awhile since I have been on, so excuse my outburst. That would be annoying, though I think that some people (NotaTreoFan) take it a little to far when they bash people for these kind of topics. (And Treo, if you are reading this, I know you have not been involved in this thread, you just came to mind) In all honesty I think they need to create a "Social" board, but that is just me.
LOL I got mine yesterday its alright I guess the only time I can get it to work is after 10PM or so and on wi-fi cant get it to work at all over a data connection.

What did I do this time? I didn't start the bashing until other people started their $h!t. If you check my post in the thread your are referring to, I tried to stop by saying that I was done before it causes bad blood and gets personal. When a random a55h0l3 decided to continue the attacks, then he brought it upon himself.
What is the difference between this ans Thunderhawk?

Touch-Dual Dialer with Diamond Skin.. why not???

I've been searching and searching and searching and also very frequently checking out "Development and hacking" to see if someone skinned the touch-dual dialer... nope! Can't find it anywhere.
There's a new dialer skin on practically a daily basis being churned out in the Dev and Hack forum and they are unanimously based on the Touch dialer and not Touch-dual.
Why is it important for me (you Dutty's rom users know why) .. cuz its simply the best dialer in my opinion for someone, like me, who uses my Tilt for extensive business purposes and have to entertain over 100 calls almost every weekday. So the dialers smart-search ability which is very intuitive along with a few other perks like it prompting to save a previously unsaved number and large dialed number display are just too much for me to give up on.
I did find one dialer that would've been perfect but was made by one Tom Codon and apparently he releases his dialers to ROM makers only! Blah!
Also.. why I need another skin for it, it cuz this one has a lot of problems with mis-tapping numbers and is a known issue with it.
If I got a bit greedy... then I'd love to see someone add a soft button on screen for "conference" feature when one has two calls being answered. Currently I have to tap on the options and then tap the conference option. A little inconvenient.. hehe.

This was not morse code. I was trying to be helpful, and thought I had found the dialer you are interested in. After I had posted I realized it was not the same dialer you had referred to. I wasn't able to find a way to delete my post, and there is no way to remove the text from the post, apparently there is a minimum amount of letters a post must have.

AWESOME DUDE... I'm very thankful to you for this. The dialer is exaclty what I was looking for. I would've found it had the maker simply added "Touch-dual based" or something similar to the title.
Anywho .. I'm just jumping up and down at the moment..

and i just found it... it was a thread i overlooked. but seriously, if its really a bother for you to answer questions, why do it? we all make mistakes... i overlooked it, woohoo... big deal. i'm sure that in you're 70 something posts you've made a mistake.

Well, as you noticed I DID answer your question, and also pointed you politely towards the Search facility which, as you have noticed, would have given you the answer and would spare people from answering the same questions again and again, which is a waste of time and also unnecessarily clogs this forum.
However, I do not take kindly to verbal abuse and to the kind of language you seem to be using here. Once people get beyond the mental age of 10 they usually start talking a different language.
Please remind me not to help you next time.
All the best.

i know you did help and i said thanks... but seriously, it was an honest mistake. and i did eventually find it. and i apologize for the language, but i just get tired of hearing "use the search button"... you want to not use up so much space on the forum, but yet you reply with "search button, search button." just gets a little old is all. if its that big of a deal, then don't bother to be a person that helps people. you should probably give people the benefit of the doubt sometimes.
Although I'm a great opposer of the "reply with 'search!'"-mentality seen around here, pedmond was so kind to take the time to answer your question ánd correct you on your mistake instead of just flaming the hell out of you. He was being anything but the search-Nazi you're making him out to be.
If this'd be a forum of mine, I'd have you slapped and on moderation for a week. There's not agreeing and arguing about it and there's plain verbal abuse.
In any case, glad you found your stuff, and lower your temper a bit. Your kind of replies makes a forum a better place as much as those guys with their search-syndrome do.

Can Call Duration be cleared... anyone know? Any tweaks / proggies to assist?

Start, Settings, System, Device Information... Call Duration. How do you wipe those figures from your handset folks? Must be a way somehow but how?!
Please gimme a clue cus i'm trying to sell my handset 'as new' and even though i've only used the phone for about 2 hours total, in and outgoing, it'd still be nice to have no comebacks with it.
Besides... someone else might need this info for some other reason to so if you know... shout loudly please!!!!!!!!

There are 3 command you can enter:
Code:
[email protected]?1
[email protected]?0
[email protected]=270F,270F
These do the following
[email protected]?1 - Shows Outbound time in HEX
[email protected]?0 - Shows Inbound time in HEX
[email protected]=270F,270F - Reset both timers to zero.

lol @ chilax!
Loving it! Thanks Dave. Trying it now so more than likely i'll get back to you saying i c*cked it up!!!
Enjoy lunch!!!

P.S. Added you to msn if that's ok. Hope i've not overstepped my bounds there
Kewl, let me know if it works.
Now, how do I set my call duration back to what it was before
Dave
I use ATcommander and send
[email protected]?1 and [email protected]?0 and
it's OK, but when i send [email protected]=270F,270F i see ERROR
I've installed Hard-SPL
Why?
Thanks
I knew it......
... when i enter the 270F,270F it says ERROR.
Correct me if i'm wrong Dave. You simply type in what you told me to, namely the AT code and hit send, yes?
I am truly amazed at the amount of help offered to someone who wants to sell a used phone as new. Spare a thought for the poor sod who will be conned into this. And please don't start the "it's like new business", you know it isn't.
You might need security unlock or Hard SPL at least to do this.
So if you have HardSPL already, you possibly need security unlock. Security unlock is still been worked on at the moment, so you could be stuck for a while.
Sorry, but I don't own a Blackstone to test on.
Thanks

And just to further correct you... it's 3 days old and not been out of it's pouch for more than 90 minutes or so. Why i'm even bothering to explain that to you i have no idea.

What I am trying to bring to this thread is a bit of ethos and concern for the guy to whom you will flock your wears. 3 days or 133 days you have no right to clock it and present it for something it isn't. It is also illegal.

Illegal? Well 2 things.
1. As you'll have noticed, i'm new to all this side of things as far as XDA goes so i was unaware of that.
2. Tell that to everyone else and quit hassling me.
The ethics and ethos of this have been discussed everytime a thread like this is started.
As this is not possible at the moment I see no need for this discussion to continue.

Google Voice App, forward SMS?

So I just received my GV invite and this thing is pretty damn sweet. But you can you forward incoming SMS on your phone to use GV instead of having the user use the google voice number?

If you want something to show up in GV, you need the other party to call/sms the GV number... makes sense right?
By the way this is a Dream app/games subforum. On-topic means you are specifically talking about a Dream app (e.g. GV by Evan or the official client).
Last time I checked, Google Voice has an app for android, and you still didnt answer my question. Because I KNOW you can forward your phone to use the Google Voice service.
Most every thread I see you give your .02 on you sound like a total prick. Does your life suck that bad taht you need to sit on forums and play thread police? Go flex your internet muscles elsewhere dude.
Sorry buddy, doesn't look like there is a way to send SMS out from your phone to GV. There is a thread about forwarding calls. (I realized calls and sms are not the same.) http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/voice/thread?tid=7c63838aae334fe3&hl=en
Until Google Voice allows you to make your personal number your GV number, we are always going to experience this. (I have GV also.)

Sure, but your question isn't so much relating to the GV app so much as it is a GV question in general. There is a forum for answering GV questions, and that is at the official GV site. Posting your questions in the correct places means you get more relevant answers and less pricks like me smartassing it before you get thread-locked.
And you can forward a call to GV from a phone through the voicemail system. No such system exists for SMS.
