[Q] Disable answer "buttons" and leave only "slider"? - HTC Incredible S

Is it possible to to disable the buttons (answer/ignore) and use Only slider as answering alternative? Cause I hate when the buttons are "selected" (think so) when it's in my pocket and I answer/ignore by mistake whilst picking it up.
I am currently using "Full screen caller ID", and it has the option to use only sliders, but after recent updates it refuse to answer, and I must use the back button to go to original answering mode, and there either use slider or buttons; which I find to be more random in usage than controlled by factors.
So, if anyone know of a way to to this for me, I would be thankful.
Sincerly,
/Martin

I have the same problem, I hope that someone maybe know this answer.

looking for two different cabs

Hello
I am a new owner of an att tilt. I believe it is the same as the tytnII. I am looking for two cabs to install on my phone.
1) a cab that lets me assign a button to switch between vibrate, silent, and ring. I found vibra switch, but it does not include silent.
2) a cab or program that allows me to assign a call log feature to a button. I use the call log quite frequently on my old phone.
Thank you for anyone that can give a newbie a suggestion
Adam
both of those can easily be accessed without cabs.
1- if you have the htc home screen, just press on the symbol that looks like a phone with a music symbol beside it, and it'll give you the option of switching profiles
2- just click the green talk button and then press up on the dpad
want the button press
Thank you for the response.
I have not tried htc homescreen yet. It appears to have a large clock and a tab system of the today screen that I am not fond of. Am I able to leave the today screen basically like it is with that program?
Also I want to be able to map these functions to a button. The reason for this is for easy access while driving. I feel a button press and using the jog wheel is a lot more accurate and requires less attention.
Thank you

Couple of (I Hope) Easy Tilt Questions

I had an 8125 and now I have a tilt. In making the switch I have run into a few anooying problems that I am sure someone already solved? I have looked all over the forums so if these are answered, could you please point me in the right direction?
1) The ever popular PTT issue. Took me a while but I got it going. It was interesting that there was an incompatibility between the fix and BatteryStatus. Not sure what THAT was about? But it is working now.
Soooo...How do I get button FIVE to appear on my button maps? Neither the stock button feature in the settings nor AEButton Plus shows button 5, the camera button. It would also be kewl to map the OK button on the side, but I am guessing that is too much to ask? *Blink*
2) I have set the brightness at about the medium level (that was a disappointment because I was able to set it to the lowest on the 8125) but somehow the backlight keeps going dim after a time. I have looked all over the parameters to configure this but I can't find it? How do I keep the display from going dim on me? I have the tilt set to sleep at 1 minute and I do not have the backlight going dim at all, so I don't know what else to do?
3) Now that PTT button is mapped, I did what all of you did, I set it to Voice Command. But of course the push and hold I want the convenience of RECORD like I had on the 8125. I have tried all of the shortcuts and such I could find on this site and everyone of them put the voice recorder on my screen but did NOT initiate the record feature. Is there no way to do this on the tilt? I think I remember something about a parameter? /b or something like that? I tried to find it again but I was unable to.
Thanks for your help, guys...

Hi Welcome
Not sure bout your other two questions, but the backlight is easy
Look in Start/Settings/System/ Backlight
You want the second tab, which is for Battery Power.
There you can set the timeout for it.
PS: If you have already tried this, then sorry for pointing it out, but sometimes the obvious solution is hard to find
AEButton Plus
I am able to remap both the OK button on the side and the Camera button with AEButton PLus.
I do have a slight problem that I am looking for a solution and hope someone knows the answer. When I remapped the OK button on the side, the first press still gives me the start menu no matter what I have it set for. The second press does the function I have programmed for double press. But is there anyway to not have it give me the start menu on the first press? I have it as none in the standard WM6 buttons panel. And I have it as lock phone on AEButtonPlus for both the first press and double press. But it always requires double press to make it happen. Any ideas?

[APP IDEA] Legend hardware key remap for Call Attend & End

Is it possible that someone can develop a simple app for legend, which would make the Home key and Back key act as call attend and call end button on legend?
Home key should only act as call attend while the call is incoming.
and back key should only act as end button while a call is incoming and when the call screen is still visible while on call.
Iam not exactly sure if there is already such an app, i've really tried looking and found none so far.
it would be just great if something like this is possible, there can be times when we just dont want to touch the screen, like while eating or with wet/dirty fingers.
The home button cannot be overridden IIRC. But it should be possible to remap the other ones. ask the creator of your phone app. I think designing a dialer/phone app just for button remapping is asking too much.
You can already use the power button to hang up, enable it in the accessibility setting (or is this cyanogenmod specific?).
Actually iam running stock ROM, I must admit i have not a single clue on how/if its possible. I don't deal with development, I was merely suggesting an idea for those who might be able to do it.
I didn't realize it would require a total rewrite of the dialer app, I was kind of under there impression that it could be possible through some lil hack.
The home button I mentioned was also a suggestion.

[Q] Volume sliders linking app?

I've been trying to sort out the volume controls on droid to get them to behave how I want and after trying various different 3rd party apps to do this I still haven't made it do what I want. It's getting a little frustrating now!
So at the risk of being told "This has been asked before" and being shown threads I've already read and links I've tried out, I'm resorting to asking.
Basically what I'm looking for is that ALL of the individual volume controls are linked together to the main volume rocker switch, and/or the ringtone volume setting. What I mean by that is that when I hold the switch down to make the phone quieter or silent, I want ALL the other volume controls (media/notifications/alarms etc) to use the exact same setting. And the same when the volume is increased.
And when I mention ringtone volume setting I mean that (if possible) when I add say a profile switching shortcut on the home screen and choose a silent/vibrate/normal profile that the same behaviour applies, ie all the volume controls get set the same.
If I was being choosy, in an ideal world it would be nice to be able to choose any particular control and have it excluded from this behaviour as I see fit, but that's a nice to have - beggars can't be choosers!
The important thing is basically when I turn the volume rocker down that I want my phone to make all the volume settings go down etc like they're one overall setting not a bunch of separate ones.
In terms of implementation I'm not sure if this will sound how I mean it to, but I don't really want to have to keep messing with an app to change settings, or have to have a shortcut that needs to be used etc. So with that in mind is there such a thing that just installs and has no interface of its own per se but actually fundamentally changes the way the standard volume controls and settings work and are presented to you?
That's ultimately what I'd love to have rather than a 'bolt on' that I need to remember is there and have to meddle with all the time. I hope that makes sense, and I'd certainly try out a solution that only ticks 'some' of the boxes than have no suggestions at all.
Sorry if this sounds similar to other threads on volume control. I've read several similar ones, and have tried many 3rd party volume/mute apps etc but have not yet found one that just links the separate volume sliders together in this way in such a simple fashion. I'm sure there must be one like this, but I've not found it yet so appreciate a pointer in the right direction!
Cheers
Looking for this aswell, but I was never able to find it
Just a quick update for anyone searching - I found an app called 'Master Volume' which has worked for me.
It doesn't offer anything in terms of exceptions or individual control I don't think, but importantly it DOES link the volume controls together and links them at the same time to the rocker switch on the phone.
So you install it, then I opened the all and it says to just leave the service running in the background (so I set my task killer app to ignore the process). That's it. It just seems to work no problem.
Result!

Touch Button Answer

I know that a lot of ppl have been frustrated by the need to use a slider to answer calls on Android. I find it very annoying. I know there are a bunch of apps out there that provide a touch button answer screen.
But I noticed that at (least on JB), when I have a call waiting, the native android answer screen has touch buttons to answer or decline!
I was wondering if anyone would know how to tweak things so that we could get this screen to pop up for ALL incoming calls- or if this has already been done?
