How do I get my commando to go to dial pad when I click on the phone on home screen..???

ohhhh how do I get back to being able to click on the phone icon main screen and go to dial pad???

Hi Richard Miller:
Thanks for following up! Did it always do this? When you press the phone icon, it gives the phone functions, and one of them is the call log. Now the call log may appear by default if you have a missed call that hasn't been addressed. Other than that, you should be able to just press "Dial Pad" at the top to get to the dial pad manually. To exit, you can press the home key. Pressing the phone icon again should bring you back to where you left off (dial pad) as long as you've addressed any missed calls in the call log.
If that doesn't work, and you think there's a glitch, you can try pulling the battery and retesting. If that's unsuccessful, you can clear the cache of the dialer app. To do this, go to settings> applications> manage applications> all> dialer/dialer storage> clear cache/clear data/force stop.  Warning: This may erase your call history/log.
Please give those steps a try.  If that doesn't help, please give more details to your problem. We may not be on the same page yet.
Thanks,

  • Is there free voice mail service? if so how do i get it to work? all i see when i click the voice mail icon is the accept/decline for visual voice mail and that says theres a charge?

    Is there free voice mail service? if so how do I set it up? When I click on the voice mail icon all I see is the accept/decline agreement for Visual Voice Mail and it said something about charges will be applied on my bill so I declined.

    Your Basic voice mail is a free required program for you if you do not want Basic Visual Voice mail (free) or Premium which is a paid service. Basic Voice Mail set up is free and easy to do.
    1. Sign in to your My Verizon online account.
    2. On left side of page in Blue letters find the drop down menu. Click to open menu then go to change features and locate Basic Voice mail and click the Red add button.
    3. When you're done making this change click next at the bottom of the screen and then ok.
    4. Now go into your device and set up your  Basic voice mail program. You may continue to receive an error message for a period of time “Visual voice mail update”, just clear and disregard.

    Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

  • How do I stop Firefox blocking my bank log in sites, when I click allow the bank resets to default which then Firefox blocks again.

    Every time I try logging into my bank accounts ie Nat West, Lloyds or Barclays I get the Firefox pop up bar saying "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" and when I click on allow the bank log in page goes back to their home page, this means I now can't log in to my bank accounts. Can you please tell me how I can allow sites without the blocked pop up occuring.
    Dawlish 1.

    Un-checking the redirect block is a Global setting. I want to know how to allow redirect for sites I use every day as friendly sites. I do not want it turned of for the entire world wide web. Otherwise, why even have this security setting at all? I've already added my usual sites to my Privacy exception list but that list is ignored by the redirect security warning.

  • How do I get Firefox to open from a closed state when I click on a URL sent in an email or posted in a chat forum?

    When Firefox is off and I click on a URL link, Firefox does not start up and open at the URL link. When Firefox is on and I click on a link, then Firefox will start (open) another tab for the URL link. Firefox should open the link regardless of it's on/off state. Windows IE does this and I would expect Firefox to also do this.
    Also, related to this is the fact that if I am at a website in Firefox and need to print out a PDF document shown on the website, I can't do this unless I first open/start Adobe. Adobe should automatically start as soon as I try to open the PDF document; again, IE does this.

    Cor-el,
    Thank you for the response. I’ve already selected Adobe Reader in Firefox as the viewer for PDF documents based on the response I got earlier from the-edmeister. Firefox will still not open a PDF document from a website when viewing the website in Firefox.
    As far as changing anything in a dot config file – I’ll pass. I’ve been a Windows IE user for more years than I can remember. I’ve been told by many other folks that Firefox is a better browser platform for several years. Based on that, I assumed that Firefox will do everything that IE will do as good as or better than IE. I’m not opposed to making some application based selections to get Firefox to work, but I was expecting a fully functional plug & play application. Changing settings in dot config files is not my idea of plug & play.
    I printed out the instructions from the link you supplied (https://support.mozilla.org/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them) and will give that a shot later today. In the mean time, I’ve already redone the default browser setting and temporarily set IE as the default browser.

  • How can I stop iOS from opening a recently received message when I click on the messages app to compose an unrelated message to a different contact? I want to read it later, when I have time to reply, and I don't want to forget to go back to it.

    iPhone messages automatically open when I don't want them to
    One of my first ever flip phones had a wonderful function where you could choose a checkbox next to received messages to make them appear read or unread. This was very convenient for messages which you read, but don't have time to reply to immediately, and want to remember to come back to later.
    In contrast, the latest, greatest iPhone not only does not have this rudimentary message management function, but it goes one step further in the wrong direction. If there is just one received, unread message, and you click on the messages icon, the new message will automatically be opened. It is opened irrespective of whether you have time to read it right away, irrespective of if you simply wanted to compose a new message or go back to another already read message. It just opens the new one, and then you are in a position where you have to read it and respond to it right there, or risk forgetting about it and failing to reply to it altogether. I sometimes receive a lot of messages over a period of a few hours, so it is very easy to lose track of these half-read messages in the mayhem. I have missed countless messages because of this problem. Incidentally, if there is more than one received message, then the application doesn't automatically open any of them, which is much better, because you can at least choose when you want to open one of the unread messages. But ideally, you should be able to go through your list of received messages and check or uncheck them as read or unread at any time, so that you can easily find messages that still need to be replied to, or reconsidered.
    Does anybody have a solution to this problem? It strikes me as a simple data management solution that should be, but is not an option in the basic functionality of the app. Frustrating!

    Is this an IMAP account?
    If so, delete the messages in Mail from all folders and quit Mail.
    Go the the website and clear the messages from all folders there.
    Reopen Mail and verify the messages have been deleted for all folders.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

    Hmm, that is very strange. I agree with MichelB that it's probably best just to get the PDF, but you can try going to your username>library>preferences and deleting:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
    To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the Saved Application States folder and delete anything pertaining to PSE.
    Repair permissions and see if that does it.

  • I traded iPads with my daughter. How do I get my iTunes account on this one? When I try to update it wants her information?

    I traded iPads with my daughter. How do I get my iTunes account on this one? When I try to update it wants her iTunes information.

    You can tap on the account in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and log out of it and then log in with yours. But if any of the apps that are currently on the iPad were downloaded by her account then only her account will be able to download updates to those apps - content from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, not to the account that is currently logged in.
