Got a cm7 question - Atrix 4G General

I'm on cm7 still as I absolutely need every feature working right. My question is, is there a way to edit the emergency numbers that can be called via the lockscreen(I use fingerprint unlock to keep prying eyes out)? I notice I'm able to input numbers in that screen but get the error saying its not an emergency number when I press dial. So just wondering if say I can do like a one touch dial for those contacts I'd want notified in an emergency?
EDIT: I'm on the app right now and you know what a pain searching from there is. I'm about to google the question as well.
Oops wrong section. Thought I was in q&a. Mods please move.

Wing locking itself

I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

answer a call

hello everyone
we all know that we can answer a call by pushing the soft answer key or slide the bar on the screen, my doubt is, is there a method to answer the call only by sliding the bar? to avoid accidently pickups
thanks
Yes, that would be helpful avoiding accidently pickups. I haven't see any talks around this.
This post might have gotten more attention in the "Themes, Applications and Software" thread.
no one know's if that is possible?

Slide to call Option?

Is it possible to have a slide to call option on the HD2? I hate how easy it is to accidentally dial a number on this phone (then i have to cancel) . I would love to have slide to confirm I want to make a call just like I have to slide to confirm I want to take one. I have looked in the forums, but have not seen anything that is like it.
Just a thought
Thanks

[Q] X2 Charging and other queries

Hi guys. I've been trying to search for this problems i've encountered on my X2 and i simply can't find any answers for it.
I have few minor problems which i want to ask.
1. My device keeps on charging even if the led image says that it's already 100%. I only assumed it is still charging because it is well written on its Status right above the led image.
Is this normal, and is there a way to fix this if ever? I'm worried that my battery gets overcharged if i wont to anything about this.
2. Sometimes my camera button fails to work. It happened several times now that when i try to activate the camera using its button on the right side the camera doesn't appear right away. Another thing, sometimes when i'm trying to take pictures and i pressed the camera button, the camera will just pause for a while and then green square boxes will appear on the screen. No image will be taken. Is that normal? or my camera is having problems?
3. I also noticed that the contacts are filtered by to view all contents (sim and device contacts) by default. I set mine to filter it to be able to just view the device contacts but whenever i open the contacts it reverts back to its default filtering which is "All Contacts". It is very useful at least for me to use the device as the contact's handler because my sim has limited memory and is divided into 2 parts. The first part is the one that appears and the other one can only be viewed if you disable the first part and make the 2nd part available by using the sim services embedded with it. So what i did was i copied all the 1st part and the 2nd part sim contents to my device and i was planning to hide them and use the phone's memory as the handler for contacts.
It was then that i realized the filtering problem. RIght now all copied contacts from my sim appears as well as the other part of the sim which is enabled. Which makes a lot of duplicated contacts (one from the device and one from the sim).
Is there away to make the phone permanently filtered in the device contacts?
4. I saw some of you guys teaching some members here to edit the phone's registry. Can i request for a 3rd party software to do that. Or can i just go directly to the mobile's registry and edit one of it (I don't know to do that by the way :-I )
5. Lastly, is there any way to activate the screen in order for me to unlock it? when the phone is locked and in stand by mode i can't seem to find any buttons to activate it. I am unable unlock the phone because the slide unlock button is not appearing.
What i'm doing to activate the slide unlock button is to press the power button or to slide the qwerty keyboard. I was hoping there are other ways to do it though just like on old phone wherein you can press the menu button and the asterisk key .
One last thing to end my post, please give me a Total Commander link too.
All replies would be very much appreciated sir/ma'am
To the moderators, please lock this thread if ever i violated rules. I just can't seem to locate any answers for my queries that's why i decided to created a thread with all my questions in it.
Thanks in advance.

Hmmmmm, regarding my query on the contacts filtering, i'm sure there is a registry tweak to for that. I was trying to look for it last night but i wasn't able to locate it.
Perhaps there are geniuses here that can do that for us.
Registry Editing to make the contacts filtered on "device contacts" by default. The default by the way is filtered as "All Contacts"

Get rid of the annoying full screen caller id

Like the your new G4 but can't stand that every time someone calls you, there is a full screen, in your face caller id screen? What if you are busy in an app? Tough. You just have to answer the call or ignore it.
Well, that can all be changed. Remember back in KK there was a much smaller caller id that popped up and you could answer the call, decline the call, decline with a message or ... swipe that screen out of your way! Well, you can have that back again and you don't need anything special. Just tap your dialer app. Once there, make sure you are on the 'Dial' or 'Recent' tabs. Hit the 3 buttons in the top right corner, select "Call settings" and then towards the bottom of that menu there is an option called "Incoming voice call pop-up" which is unchecked by default. Just tap the box to add the check mark and back out of there. (Side note. Scroll farther down in these settings and you will find the Gestures that are missing from the phones settings screen. Flip to silence and bring the phone to your ear to answer are hidden away in here.) Now when you get a call and you are in an app or game, instead of the full screen, in your face, can't move the sombitch, window, there is a much smaller pop up that we all love and remember from KK. When you get a call, you can answer, decline with a message, or just decline. But there is also the beloved swipe that thing outta my face before (insert anecdote here) happens, in which case the ringer will be silenced and the pop up will just slide out of your view.
Hope this helps alleviate some of the frustration with your new phone until we can get root and REALLY change the way things happen on our phones.
(BTW. I make no guarantee that your variant has the option described above. But I'm fairly positive that the option will be there.)
You can access the Call Settings directly from the Settings Menu, too (at least on the unlocked variant of the G4). Just go to Settings ยป Calls.

Unfortunately doesn't look like it's in the Sprint variant.

Oh nice find. This was on the G2... then disappeared. I don't know why it is always turned off by default. It is a really nice feature.
I am using Verizon btw
When I first got my G4 it asked me to tap it to my old phone to transfer settings, so this setting must have transferred from my G2 to the G4 automatically.
