Hi,
I have an XDA2, is it possible to rest the call timers at all?

I have recieved a "new" XDA2 from eBay, but the current incoming call duraction is 1193046hr. 27 minutes :shock: while outgoing is 0.

That is funny... A quick math reveals your phone has been used continuously for more than 136 years...

But to offer some help, go to the Phone application, go to Call history, and then on the command bar, select the menu Tools -> Call Timers

-edit- and press the Reset button

Once you have received and made your first call the timers will begin to register correctly.

Cheers for the quick replies, but i have a little problem, i cannot find what you are talking about!

Could you give me some simple steps if possible, Start> Settings> etc etc

Cheers,
Craig.

Oh,
I have found what you were on about, but the timers there were at 0. I hit the reset button anyway and made a quick call, but i still have that massive call duration in the "device information".

I too had the same HUGE call duration figure but, as cruisin-thru said, once I made & received a couple of calls, the timers reset themselves & now show the correct usage times.

Guess its just an issue with the phone software, as I purchased mine from O2 as an upgrade.

Very strange.
