Help Answer call with hardware button

electricgerm · Feb 8, 2013

Hi I appreciate if someone can point out for me if there is anyway I can answer call with hardware (physical) buttons on the Samsung Galaxy Note I (N7000) ? The phone is not rooted (and I don't want to root it).

I heard there were people able to do that with other Samsung Galaxy phones, but I can't figure out how...

Thank you thank you!

The answer should be in the manual but they are so big but I believe if you go to call setting you should get that completed.

I can't remember where the setting is in ICS, whether it's in the settings menu or phone but I'm pretty sure it's there.

In Jelly Bean it's:
Open 'Phone' app > Menu > Call Settings > Answering/Ending calls > tick 'The home key answers calls'

Welcome to the forums, electricgerm.

I've noticed that feature in a few of the 3rd party launchers for the various devices I've owned. Have a look at the extended descriptions of launchers available in Play Store. The Note that my coworker owns doesn't seem to have that feature, but she's on the stock launcher.

Go to settings/call/call answering/ending and tick Answering Key "Accept incoming calls by pressing the home button"
