All,

Just moved from the Palm Treo 750v to the Palm Treo Pro and there is one feature I am badly missing. On the 750v, i could silence (both vibrating and ring) an incoming call by pricing any button on the phone. This does not seem to work on the Treo Pro. Is there any hack to make this work? My key requirement is to have the phone on vibrating only and be able to silence the vibrating without rejecting the call.

Any help you have is much appreciated!

Thanks
S

unfortunately those at Palm are a bunch of a$$holes who release bug filled products & really could care less about their customers.

there currently is no fix & at the rate they are moving, i doubt we will see one anytime soon. they really are a crew of stupid pricks & the fully deserve to go out of business!!

This program is not really what you describe you are looking for, but it may get you part way there by giving you the ability to adjust the vibe style / length / etc., or not :D

On my cdma/sprint Pro, it will silence a call if the ringer is on, but not if the phone is switched to silent/vibrate mode.

Strange. A phone rattling on a desk is almost as bad as one ringing.
