shutting off the ring

[sksezer03]

greetings everyone, I am quite new to the Herald. So please execuse me for asking stupid questions. When a call comes in, is there a button or shortcut option to use to shut off the ring without using the ring control slide/button on the side? I used to have a different pda which offered three choices when a call came; answer - ignore - shut off the ring... anyone, anyone? thanks...

As papamopps says, you still got the red ignore button ;) Then you can answer with the green, ignore with the red and just mute the ringtone with the slidebutton on the side :)

thanks friends, i thought the "ignore" option would send a busy signal to the user, thats how it was on my previous mobile. So I was kinda scared off by using that option. Sometimes, pretending that you didn't hear the call is better than sending a busy tone :))) easier to deny the ignorance later on :))

i meant to say "sends a busy signal to the caller" not "to the user". sorry...

by pressing the "commanager" button for more than 3sec it will go into vibrate modus. then the ringer is shut off. and it is only vibrating. it is faster then the volume slider

poppamops thanx for the help... since you are good at answering, here is another one... can you suggest a nice GPS map for Turkey?

Just to be certain: If you push the red/ignore button the person who calls you will notice that you did so. If you slide the button on the side downward the person just think you were unable to answer (it just keep ringing) :)

As elsatani said all you have to do is slide down the volume slider on the side of the phone... am I missing something here. The only phone I knew where you couldn't turn off the ringer was the Excalibur when it first came out. Due to the touch slider you couldn't silent the ringer. main thing that pissed me off when that phone was initially released.
