Accept call with keyboard

On a Q10 I need to answer calls with at least one key not with a touch gesture. How can I do this?

Problem with the gesture? Hmmm... let me think:
1. I have 35 physical keys yet I have to swipe to accept/reject a call;
2. Touch display is sensitive to moisture, sweat, dirt - sometimes - I can't accept/reject a call with wet hands (or gloves). No summer/winter use for me;
3. Key press = action with feedback in one step (you know, that's why I have Q10 instead of Z10), while gesture means several steps: check call, swipe, swipe again, rub you hand with your shirt, swipe again, swear, swipe, exhale, call and explain that the phone was out of reach. Ok, not every time, just, annoyingly, that several times when it matters;
4. Basic functionality of a phone should be to call, answer and reject connections in the easiest, most ergonomically way - this is not the case. It looks like a modem card plugged into a PC and with a full keyboard you still have to use software buttons to make it work.
5. Ok, it is so cool to swipe but, please, preserve the traditional functionality of a keyboard. While I was typing this message I struggled a lot with selecting text for eliminate misspelled words, while a trackpad would have been more appropriate for this.
6. Should I extend this to Speed dial issue?

    no, when using facetime you log in with the apple id you want people to reach you at, so unless you both agree to share one apple id for all the facetime you do, it will be necessary for you to logout and login each time you use the application.

  • Can't End Call with Bluetooth Headset

    Having just purchased a Blackberry 8330, I am disappointed with the inability to end a call with a Bluetooth hands free device (Jabra VBT185Z).  The hang-up problem occurs when the Blackberry is locked and a call is placed with the Bluetooth device. While this may sound trivial, I find not being able to end a call while driving without first punching in password and unlocking my Blackberry extremely inconvenient, a hazard to driving, a waste of air time, and an engineering oversight.
    I'd appreciate any advice on fixing the problem or determining a bluetooth alternative.  (May be it's time for an iPhone.)

    Hi nlowpow,
    Please could you back up your phone and do a reset through Settings > About > Reset phone. Note this will wipe all data and settings from the phone.
    Also, check your SIM card or swap it with a new SIM (usually without charge from your operator). If you still experience this, please take your phone to a Nokia Care point to ensure there is no hardware problems.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to accept arguments with space with a java console?

    hi, i'd like to know if its possible to accept parameters with space in betwen?
    such as on my command prompt..
    java 'i love my keyboard'
    where args[0] = i love my keyboard
    instead of
    args[0] = i
    args[1] = love
    args[2] = my
    args[3] = keyboard
    thanks~

    thanks, i just realised it wasnt the problem with the command line intepreter..
    the space seems to have created some problems when passing it as a URL over to the server.
    such as, for java [name] [phone] ;
    java "Albert Stephen" +60369123
    on the server, it accepts as Albert null
    perhaps i should use the URL Encoder

  • TS4079 Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new numb

    Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new number.Help
    I`ve tried restarting, rebooting, nothing works.
    The interesting thing is that SIRI can call to previous mobile numbers (without the new digit) obviously not connecting , and, can call to any other numbers as an office or home number. So the problem is the new digit in the mobile number

    Ecuador has added an extra digit to mobile phone numbers but apple wont accept 10 digit phone numbers so we cant use facetime or apple IM or verify our new phone numbers. ( and Siri won't work either!) I have contacted apple support online but can't request a call back as the apple system says our new phone numbers are invalid. I am going to phone them tomorrow and you should complain too at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/.  . The more people that bring this to their attention the faster it will get fixed

  • Origin of call with Skype subscriptions

    I understand the Skype subscriptions and their rates when calling TO a specific country, but does it matter where you call FROM/ the origin of the call if you have a subsription to call that particular country?
    For example:  If I buy a year subscription to call landlines and mobiles in the United States, for the $2.99 a month, does it matter WHERE I am calling from (such as France, London, Germany) as long as I am only calling TO the United States? Or is that rate only for people in the U.S. trying to call others in the U.S? I'm a U.S. resident studying abroad for a year and wasn't sure if the origin of the call/ where I call from, is as important as where the subsription is set up to call to.

    When calling telephones, the people you call may see a number based on where Skype patches your call into the telephone network.  When calling phones across the USA and Canada, this is often done from locations in California.  Users have no control over where Skype patches calls into the telephone network, as this is done in part to minimize the costs for those calls (and how there are lower rates in general when calling with Skype, and "unlimited" subscriptions for some parts of the world).  
    Skype has been doing this for many years, even before its acquisition by a big US-based software company.  It's not some part of a scheme for the US taking over the world.  It is probably cheaper for Skype to patch calls bound for Canadian phone numbers into the phone network from wherever it is being done now (probably in California) than it would be to patch the calls into the phone network somewhere in Canada.

  • How do I accept calls and messages on my tablet?

    need help figuring out how to accept calls and messages i set up to have forwarded to my tablet from my note 2 that stopped charging all of a sudden. only 3 months away from upgrade so didnt want to purchase a phone at full price. i was told there was a way.
    >> Subject edited for brevity and content moved to body of post <<
    Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

    The phone number for the tablet is just an identification for the VZW network.  That number doesn't allow for you to make or receive phone calls or even text messages with it.  You've been forwarding everything from your Note 2 to an abyss.  My advice is to find someone with a used phone that can take your sim card from the Note 2 and then activate it on Verizon's network.

  • First webservice call with UTL_HTTP is slow

    Hi,
    When i do several webservice calls with the utl_http methods, the first webservice call takes a lot of time (sometimes more than 10-20 seconds). Every other webservice call (after this one) goes very fast (not even a second).
    Any ideas to make that first call faster?
    Thx.

    Oracle creates a tcp socket and makes a socket call using the http application protocol. If this is slow, then there is either a performance issue at networking level, or a performance issue at the remote server that accepts and services the tcp connection.
    Network level - as Sybrand mentioned, it can be DNS related. You make the call using a hostname. That hostname needs to be resolved into an IP address. The network layer is slow (because of a problematic DNS server for example) to resolve that hostname into an IP address. Similar thing can be happening on the web server side. Reverse DNS lookup is used to determine what the hostname of the Oracle server is, using the IP address of the incoming connection.
    The web server/service can be slow - the 1st request may make a lot of physical I/O calls. The kernel buffers the data. Subsequent I/O from this web service servicing new calls finds the data in the file cache via must faster logical I/O.
    So you need to isolate and monitor these layers, the network and the web server, to determine what the reason is for the 1st call to be seemingly slow and subsequent calls not.

    [3:09:09 PM] *** [Person X] can't be added until they accept your contact request. *** Now I know what your gonna say, make sure he is on my contact list, that I've added him, that he's not blocked.. Done all this, we are on eachothers friendslists etc..  Do anybody have any ideas ?

    Try to reset all Skype settings. Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old. Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder. Restart Skype. N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.
