Motorola droid phone application

[ruchir]

Hi

  I just have one question, I recently switched over from BB to Motorola droid and the Phone application of droid really needs works. I am not able to conference 2 calls together unless i initiate both the calls. Is verizon working on fixing this or is there any update / application i can use to update this feature. Will rooting work? If i do change something with rooting does Verizon support it?

Thanks in advance

Try downloading the app "Super Dial" from the market...  It is a vast improvement over the stock Android dialer, as it allows you to type a few characters of a contact's name to "trim down" the contact list, much like BB used to do for me.  I don't have any problems hitting the manage calls button to merge phone calls, although I've only tried it once, and that was recently, and has always been with Super Dial installed - I'm not going to guarantee Super Dial is going to solve that issue, or if the Android 2.1 update will resolve it as soon as it's released, but one of the two should take care of it.for you 

The first time you make a phone call with Super dial, when you exit the phone call, it will come up with a dialog where you can set superdial as your primary dialer...  Click the "always use" and then the "Super Dial" to make that seemless with the phone.

As to rooting, no Verizon absolutely does not support it, and if you do so you could end up with no warranty on the device.

Although many are ahead of me on this - I see some really good questions with good solutions such as this that I might end up using. Almost want to save these answers somewhere for future reference when I come up with the issue - wow

But this question created a querrie? One I think might not warrant a new question - but

What is rooting? Sounds from the answer it is not a typical practice and something a person that is a phone techie or

com - tech (lol) would know? Only curious...if no reply I will wait. I did see the question when I downloaded an App and did not know what it meant.

Uhhh -

Please omit my previous question - I jumped the gun before I searched the site. Mike has a good post on this Topic.

Nothing I'd go for - I think he's correct in his comments.

Again - sorry - got the answer
