When you press phone button, it by default opens up on the keypad. Is there a way to set it so that it always opens up on the call history instead?
Thanks.

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.
Is there any way to make the people icons in the Contacts tab of HTC Home jump to the phone screen with the contact set ready to dial, but wait for you to press the Green call button before it actually dials? It's far too easy to accidentally dial someone via that panel with an inadvertant touch at present. It's still a handy way to get to your favourite contacts quickly, but I'd much prefer the 'safety net' of having to press the green button to actually initiate the call. Is there such an option?

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...
Hey all,
I just ran into this site and being a new user of Miui, it totally blew my mind.

2. Built-in Screen Capture function
One of the lacking feature in Android is the lack of a built-in screen capture feature (like in iPhone). Not anymore. With MIUI, you can press the “Menu” key and “Volume Down” key at the same time to capture a screenshot. The printed image is saved in the “MIUI: directory in the sd card.
3. Press Home key to preview screens

ive learnt .. actually i read abt miui from the site before installing eybees version ..
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.
