Preventing unintentional button press

2 replies · 1,711 views · Started 20 August 2003

Even after you lock the keypad using left-soft-key and *, when there's an incoming call, the answer and reject buttons become active.

I use the original nokia leather holder for my 3650, but it's quite a tight fit. When I get an incoming call or my calendar alarm rings, in the process of taking the phone out using 1 hand, the buttons can be accidentally pressed. Can be frustrating if calls are rejected, or alarm message are not seen and I've no idea if it was a snooze or stop that 'I' had pressed. :cry:

Is there any solution out there?

I miss taking out the phone using one hand, and I still reject calls or snooze/stop alarms at times when I didn't intend to. 😞
