    Brand new and need help.....First I must say that I have learned a lot from the threads on here and was excited when I was able to get my bb. But I have what I hope is a pretty simple question and hopefully not a dumb one. I want to change the option of dialing from the home screen to not do it anymore. I just keep sending myself in circles My other question is that I have seemed to forget where the general options thing is.....uhh

    Sorry if this is too simple but I really appreciate the help

    General options is an icon on your home screen. Mine is a wrench. Dialing from home screen I believe if you go to your phone screen then options. Good luck and welcome to CB

    I have a Pearl 8130 on Sprint and when I go to /Phone / Menu / Options / General Options / , it doesn't have an option for turning my " dial from home screen" ! Here is what I see:

    Auto Answer Calls: Never
    Auto End Calls: Into Holster
    Confirm Delete: Yes
    Restrict My Identity: Off
    Phone List View: Call Log
    Show "My Number": No
    Default Call Volume: Previous
    Enhance Call Audio: Boost Bass


    & that's it! Am I missing something here?
    Any help would be appreciated as I am trying to do keyboard shortcuts from the home screen without it trying to dial a number automatically.

    A good way to become familiar with your phone is right here... Menu > Help (question sign) > clickety click
    When you find yourself with a little time to kill, then just play with the phone by going to the Help folder. There is just about everything on operating your BB there for you. Have fun
