That may be true, but on the MyTouch 4G Slide, with MA running, sometimes the trackpad works for arrowing down and to the side, and sometimes it does not. And, now forgive me if this sounds argumentative, it should not take me 3 or more gestures to hang up the phone. And, again being argumentative, why should there be one procedure for answering/disconnecting the phone when it's waking up, and another when the phone is awake as the call comes in? And, finally, if the phone is still against my ear when I try to hang up, it's usually displaying a different screen than if I move it away from my ear--something CF seems to forget to tell users in its, so-called, manual. I laughed out loud when I read your sentence that contained the words "generally works". Generally works???? I just spent over $300 for a phone, and CF wants over another $100 for this software. Seems to me that things should be a bit better than "generally works". And CF should support its users better, instead of canned responses to their problem reports. I certainly mean no disrespect to you, I thank you for responding, but I've spent almost a week trying to help my wife learn this new phone, and the inconsistency of operations, and the absolute lack of support from CF, is unbelievable.

Another approach, also when using system call screens is to tap the screen to the right of where you tap to answer, not on the right side of the screen but more to the left side of middle. Both these approaches generally work on most phones regardless of manufacture as long as they have physical navigation controls.

When your phone is awake as a call comes in, there doesn't seem to be any way to answer the call using MA. the swipe up doesn't work, just increases the ringer volume, and, like you, the volume keys just silence the ringer. I haven't tried answering one call, while on another--the manual says just a swipe up will answer, I tend to doubt that now. You can try using the system call screen, (it's selected by a checkbox in the MA settings/advanced dialog box) but I found that option even worse. With that screen enabled, I can answer the call, but I can't hang them up. It's just another annoyance to add to the list of things that aren't right with the MA application-- at least on the My Touch 4G Slide.

My question How do you answer a call when receding one? I have the using volume buttons checked to answer and hang up the call. When pressing either of these keys, it just silences the phone. Also, when the phone is in the lock position, I can answer the call by just moving my finger up the screen. My problem comes when I am within MA and receive the call that I can't figure out how to answer the phone. Thanks in advance for your help and I hope this is clear.
