ya same with me i had the screenlock on and it was in my center console. i was thinking that Tasker screwed some settings but i checked and nothing was changed that would cause it to happen.

Check if you have Automatic answering checked.

Phone/Menu/Call Settings/Call answering/ending.

Make sure it is not checked. My phone was automatically answering even though I had never checked it. It some how was checked.

I suggest you guys eBay your phones as haunted phones. You could make a fortune.

i dont have that option.
i only have :
1 answer with the home button.(this is checked, which could have been the problem.)
2 the power key ends calls (this is checked too)
