I keep getting disconnected when my phone call is being transferred to another line.

I've searched through Google and it doesn't seem like this should be a problem since I haven't found anyone else posting about it.

Has anyone else experienced this or am I just getting really unlucky with stupid desk clerks?

UI change request(s).

Say you are in the messages tab, can you change the "messages" tab to then say "Refresh" so if it is clicked again it will refresh. Seems silly to have to hold it down for 2 seconds when a double tap can do the same thing.

sending a message window.
At the top right can you add a box with a "+" so that it is easier to add another contact to the conversation (or a person icon will do ). Switching back and forth to the main DC window is not overly difficult, but can be made easier. I think making the SMS and dial buttons larger can also pay off

Or you can use Menu Refresh. Feel free to file it if it isn't already

And what do you expect to happen on pressing of "+"? I originally thought "Contact list" but then I was like "wait, what if someone wants to manually dial a number?" Then "well, if I add dialing a number I might as well add recent which brings me back to the original UI".

The one downside I can see is lack of multiselect which prioritized with everything else is a bit low but still good to file so if someone else comes along (or I magically get a lot of other things out of the way) it won't be forgotten.

Larger buttons would be good. I just haven't gotten around to figuring out the best way to do it. Feel free to file something on it so I don't forget.

is there anyway to include the contacts from the phone's main contact list?

It is possible, I've just run into issues when I've tried it in the past. This is much easier to do with TOR and in TOR it works (for calls only).

Thanks, is that means we will be able to see this feature in the next version?

Next version of Dialcentral? Unlikely unless someone else sends me a patch?

TOR? the version in extras-testing should have that much contact integration

I never thought of the fact that someone may need to type in a number to be txted. I envisioned it as almost a quick switch option that would simply bring the main GUI to the front. This is also how I wish the hardware "arrow back" button would function on my 810

I will file a request after a bit more discussion with you here, that way we will have a better understanding/vision of whats what

Keep up the good fight. I wish there was more of you to go around to fill the gaps on the missing apps for the 8x0 series!

Potential Feature?

Would it be possible to have, either tied to DC or TOR, an applet on the desktop that would work like an RSS reader listing the latest incoming vmails/texts?

I guess it would be POSSIBLE but am I the only one who would find this extremely useful?

I imagine it could be useful. There already is a feature request for a dialpad widget. For me they are a low priority but others could come along and implement it (in theory).
