I want my call history back!

[Guest Paul Miller]

On all WM devices I've tried so far, pushing the green "call button" when not already in the phone application brings up the call history, which is extremely handy. But on the TyTN II, it brings up only the last call, ready to call that number again, and if you want the call history you have to go digging in the menu. For me, having the call history come up immediately was the right way to go. Is there a way to make that the behaviour on the TyTN II?

Yes.

It is not as easy as you had it but it is still easy.

Press green phone button -> Menu -> Call History.

Perhaps there is a registry edit that will bring that function back? I looked at the Settings -> Buttons but that only seems to allow you to allocate buttons to programs.

Some one more expert than I may wish to chime in here with possible hacks.

[Later] It is even easier.

Green button and the third icon from the top on the right. The one that looks like a PDA with an arrow wrapped around it.

LOL! So simple! Thanks, I missed that function too...maybe I should read the manual and catch up on all of these features...(but it's so big!! ;) )

Actually. I didn't read the manual. I have just been pressing all of the buttons in all of the windows to see what they do :wub:

Cheers.

You can also hit the green phone button then just hit the right D pad and it will take you to your call history.

Thanks for the tips, everyone -- this is pretty good. (Two steps isn't quite as good as one step, but it's still quick -- especially the right d-pad one -- great discovery!). Thanks again.

Or you can download tha attached file (CallHistory..exe), copy it to your Phone, and assign a button to it. this will give you one step to go to your call history.
