Well a known shortcoming is how the device only has one ringtone for all calls when most phones have a ringtone per person option, or at the very least a ringtone per group (family, friends, work, etc..). That should be an option when editting the contact's details.

well, I think an extra button for used as a shortcut to:
-"select all" functionality when there are unselected items in "or show only" list (to enable fast return to default view)
-"select none" functionality when there all items are selected in "or show only" list (to enable fast single selections)
would be very useful but if you think it's confusing, I'm just leaving my ideas here

We include a 'Show All' because we establish a user might want to quickly (re)enable showing all (or, clearing the filters).
Hence:
Button 'Show All' (grey if all are flagged)
Checkbox + Buttons as previously described.
[... Show All..........]
[X| Incoming Calls ]
[..| Outgoing Calls ]
[..| Missed Calls....]
[..| Voicemail.........]
Or
Enable filtering shows (with state of checkboxes saved):
[X| Incoming Calls ]
[..| Outgoing Calls ]
[..| Missed Calls....]
[..| Voicemail.........]
Disable filtering greys (with state of checkboxes saved)
[X| Incoming Calls ]
[..| Outgoing Calls ]
[..| Missed Calls....]
[..| Voicemai.........]
[EDIT]On a second thought. Screw it. Such stuff should be indexed by Tracker. Tracker indexes IM logs, documents, images. Why not voice logs? Why that seperate treatment? Might as well make tons of exceptions while purpose is to include backends for Tracker making it more useful. Hence differentiation makes no sense. This also allows easier to search on communication based on other metadata, allowing more fine grained filtering instead of only outcome_of_used_protocol. Such as: Person, Group context (Work, Family, etc). Also allows data of voice to be combined in search with other protocols such as IM or SMS.[/EDIT]

In the UK voicemail is automatically included from your network and usually can't be turned off, though you can record your own message these days.
So any other option is a bit of a nonstarter. Calls to voicemail are either free or part of your 'included minutes' if you're on a plan. I really need n900 to know if someone has left voicemail.
It would be nice to know what number the N900 tries to use for voice-mail when you use a T-Mobile sim.

Helmuth, thanks for the ideas but I'm limiting this thread to call functionality, ie, sending, receiving, filtering, etc. But check other Brainstorms in this subforum or start your own if none cover your topic! Thanks.
I would like also to configure different ringtones to each group and also block calls from groups certain times. Basically, to give an example, I would like to block all calls from work when I'm on holidays and block all calls except from my family group when in a meeting.
Thx

Contacts are a seperate Programm. Should I start a new Brainstorm?
There could also be different Ideas... (only Groups, Tag Clouds, and so on)

There's certainly synergy with Contacts, as I noted earlier, so yeah there won't always be clean divisions between Brainstorms. I think we can address improvements to calling Contacts here for sure.

- Time/date (calendar-based)
- Location (GPS-based)
- Group (user-defined/sorted by user)
- Person (user-defined/sorted by user)
- Current task (hmmm.. as last resort definition. During driving or meeting, for example)
- ...?
Different ringtone is just what deviates from default. There is so much more than ringtone.
- Auto-reply or voicemail
- Urgency (overrides certain settings)
- Notify silent via LED and/or vibrate (don't notify via LED when asleep)
- ...?
