time of last call?

i notice that if you are in a call, there is a call timer for that current call. but as soon as i press the hangup button, it disappears. isn't there a way for that last call timer to stay on for at least a few seconds after i hang up so i can see how long i've been talking instead of disappearing right away? i know i can go into the call log and see the minutes there but its just another step to do. i'm using a treo 650. thanks

with additional apps you can do just about anything. With the installed software, No you can't.

Can't you just look at it before/while you press the hangup button?

yeah i can look at it before hanging up, but i was so used to my previous phone that kept it on the screen so sometimes i subconsciously just press the hangup button. sorry i asked

"Sorry I asked"? WTH? did it sound like I was giving you attitude? I wasn't. I was trying to help, and asking a simple question out of curiosity. Sorry I asked.

well, naturally i can look at it before/while pressing the hang up button. but thats not what i was asking. so.... do you know of any 3rd party software that will leave the last call time on a few seconds or however long, AFTER pressing the hangup button?

Just use the call log. With 3 button presses you can see the call's duration without installing any additional software that may or may not work with your phone. New phones always take getting used to. I miss certain features of my old phones, but you have to adjust.

yes, guess thats one of the things i need to adjust to. i'll probably just use the call log feature instead of buying another app. wish the treo would tell me my incoming minutes used, outgoing and total minutes which are resettable. doesn't seem like the call totals under call log works. i know i've been using my home but it says home network as 0 minutes and roaming 0.

I think there is a way to do that, some kind of code you dial or something. ill check into it & let you know what I find out. do you have Sprint or Cingular/ATT?

I also have the Cingular version (since last Friday). When I click on "Details" in the Call Lof for a name, I get NAME, NUMBER, DATE, TIME, and ROAMING (Yes/No). I do not get duration. Is this listed on other versions of the phone, or am I not looking in the right place?

I had the same question about the duration...I went from a T616 (showed duration on screen after call and in Call Log for the day) to Siemens S66 which showed duration only in the Call Log...Now on the Treo 650, and I don't know for sure where it shows up!

I think Cingular cut it out.

I have the unlocked/unbranded version and I get:
Name:
Number:
Date:
Time:
Duration:
Roaming:

Thanks. Too bad!

It almost seems like a waste of a programmer's time to take away that line!
