Anyone has this problem? I find sometimes my Leo automatically switches off. Quite a perplexing predicament.
Like, turns off completely, so you have to press the power button to reboot it?
Or the screen goes off, and you need to turn it on and unlock the screen?
If it's the first one, is your battery running out of charge?
If it's the second one, that's normal.
It's the first, and no its not because the battery is low
Happens to me sometimes. Some people call it the sleep of death
What rom version you on?

Had that either. Didn´t do it for a long time now and I think it was because of the leather case. I always pushed in the hd2 with the buttons on the bottom and I think they were pressed for a long time. Maybe they shut down the phone when they are pressed too long ??? I now slip in the phone with the buttons to the open side and since then it didn´t shut down by itself.
Sorry. Hope my german english doesn´t sound too silly :-D

Yes that is what I suspected too. I was onthe official 1.48 ROM btw. now i flashed the new Cleanex ROM v4. so far so good. we'll see
mine has gone into such a deep sleep I've had to remove the battery to reboot. interestingly, the incoming caller had a dial tone. and I didn't get a missed call notification. running stock 1.66 Rom.

hi there,
I have the neoTouch for a while now, and overall it is a great device, but mine (German version) has an issue. Sometimes when I want to power it on (via power button or app button), the screen won't turn on. If push the app button, they light up, but the screen stays dark.
Also, if I hold the power button, it makes the chirping sound that it does when it asks if it really should power down.
I tried to check whats going on with MyMobiler, but unfortunately, if this thing happens, it also is not recognized by my PC. It also seems to "eat" phone calls while it is in such a hibernating state. It wont ring and it wont list a missed call
this happens with the stock German ROM 1.002_DE and with hdublis new rom.
a softreset cures that, but thats not a solution...
me too
in spanish version
The acer s200
seems to have a wake up issue, one wich i havent found fic for, its weird lol
I had the same problem.
I think the problem is the WM 6.5 lockscreen.
Since I don`t use the original lockscreen, the problem never returns.
PS: Sorry for my horrible english! ;-)
MOD EDIT - Moved to Acer forum
To resolve this problem, Wait the v3 Driver!
I flashed the newest ROM of Acer (in english only in this moment) and i don't have this problem now!
so I put the dimming to be after 30 seconds, which works.
however I put it to shutdown the scree after one minutes, however it stays on forever, unless I physically press the hang up key, the screen will be on all the time.
the other question I have.
2- When I search on google, and press on one of the results in opera it takes me to the definition page, rather than the actual result that I wanted
3- is there a fix for LED notification, I installed the cab to fix that, but it didnt make a difference.
4- the pink spot at the middle, I searched around but didnt see any real solution
can anyone help please
regards
While I can't offer any help, I can feel your pain! I too am experiencing this f**ing event! I placed in my pocket before boarding for a 6 hour flight yesterday and found it still powered on when the flight had ended. I had just enough power to make and receive a call! Great.
I've double/triple checked my settings after this same thing happened to me previously! WTF!
edved.
i had the same problem what you need to do is to change the screen light setting in the settings menu

Ok. I'll try your suggestion, but please tell me what the screen light setting should be?
Thanks.
just go to the backlight settings, tap ok and it seems to be fixed..
(but offcourse check if is set to turn off after a minute or whatever your needs are)
I experienced this yesterday.. just like in normal windows, some functions just stop working with no particulair reason.. I don't really worry about it.. probably fixed in the next rom.. same sometimes happens with the screen lock, sometimes it's gone.. also after reboot, althought I find it more convient that way, it can be fixed by locking the device manually.. this does proof we can disable the device lock somewhere, I really don't need it in the case I use, the power button is enough..
good tip to always push the power button before putting the device away.. saves a lot of battery too then to wait for the minute before it powers of by itself.. the large screen is the battery's biggest consumer.. this way you also don't have to trust the automatic power off.
problem is pushing the power is not enough.
because if there were any even that woke the phone up, it will never shut down the screen unless you saw it, and do it manually

no the automatic power down is seperate from the screen lock, but for some reason they connected it with the automatic power down and left the options to choose out.
Hi Guys,
I have been having issues when trying to end a call with the new WP7 Rom. I also used to have this when using Andriod Roms.
When I go to end a call, pressing the end call button does nothing apart from light up the keypad. I've tried pressing every button but nothing but the keypad lighting up happens, the call never ends! I have to remove my battery and switch the phone back on to get the use of my phone back.
I have :
HardSPL 2.08
MAGDLR111
Radio 2.15.50.14
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Jon

Did you not try the end call on the screen? Not the hard one on the bottom right of phone

The screen turns off when making a call so the touch buttons are not available. This is why I have to remove the battery as I have no other way of bringing the display back to life. Obviously if I make a call and the other person hangs up it's fine. However if they do not answer and it goes to voicemail or I call my voicemail I get stuck in a never ending loop of press 2 to hear your messages.

Official windows phones have no hard end call button, just the on screen one, therefor I dont think its possible to end a call with the hardware button. Yes, the screen goes off when making a call, but due to the proximity censor it should come back when you move it away from your head. If it does not, make sure its not covered, even a screen protector can block the proximity sensor. Its located next to the speaker.
Hmm I removed the screen protector and still no joy when I move the phone away from my face. The screen just remains black. I did crack the screen about 5 months ago and had it replaced, perhaps they've done a poor job on this....
Don't think so... My is in perfect shape. proximity works on android but not on wp7... i also can't press end call button.
same thing with me
well i get the same problem with mine also, is there anything we can do for that.
I have the same issue, though it only happens to me when calling my voicemail. I hit "end call" and it just hangs there with the message "Ending call..." and I have to pull the battery :/ Regular phone calls have been just fine though.
Finally cracked this one!
I have been experiencing this issue on my Optimus 7 phone since day one, on all firmware versions and I now have the latest update.
This is what worked for me:
-set the automatic brightness to off and choose any manual setting that suits your needs, I chose medium.
-set the screen timeout to never (not sure that this is necessary, I will change it back to 30 sec to see if the issue returns and post back)
I hope this works with your phones, it was really frustrating to pull the batery out. Good luck!
I've had this issue as well. Pressing the end call button on the screen won't end many of my calls, voicemail or to another person. But it's rare enough that it hasn't bothered me, too much. But is a problem that needs to be figured out, if possible.
We should come up witha way to re map the hard buttons to usefull use

I'm assuming your phone is an HD2. First of all, the call should automatically end when the other party hangs up. Secondly, just hit the Power button to turn the screen back on and then unlock the phone and hang up. What is so difficult? WP7 remaps the HD2 buttons so they don't work as they did in WM.

Worked. T H A N K S!!!
After the Mango Update my Optimus 7 wakes up everytime i press the home button. This also happens in my pocket or phonesleeve because the button sticks out. So the screen is all day long on and drains battery like hell....
Is it possible by, for example, a register hack to disable this? so that my screen stays of and only be activated by the button on top.... and saves my battery?
I would like to know this also....
Anybody??
My phone never activated in my pocket because this button controlled by the light sensor
You're right.... 8-0
I never noticed this, because when I get the phone out of my pocket it is always on (I inadvertently press this button when getting it out of my pocket). As I understand now it is switching on at that moment... I want to switch off this button because of the spontaneous rebooting problem of the phone. This was introduced on my phone after updating to mango (7720). I must say, since updating to 8107 this has not reoccurred.
As long as this problem does not reoccur I don't really need to switch off the windows button as a 'on' switch.
Mine doesnt reboot on itself. But it eats battery as i wear it in my pocket all day.... and that sucks...

You may try to put your finger on the light sensor and try to press the home button .If this activate the phone is wrong .
Cool dude,.... didnt know that! it works as it should be. When i cover the sensor en press the home button the screen stays "of". I will try and find out if this helps when its in the phonepouch or pocket....
Maybe when i dissable the sensor in settings, that will help to...
Keep u posted
----------------------------
That doesn't work
----------------------------
I realise that this is quite a useful function, but for me, it's troublesome, especially if the call doesn't get through, and I am sent to voicemail. You see, I believe that either my light sensor or my proximity sensor is not functioning properly. When I accept a call, call someone, the screen goes off, and doesn't come back on till the call ends, or I take out the battery and put it back in.
I'm sure this is a hardware thing, as I've tried installing Android, and the problem persists. I don't really want to spend money fixing my phone, as I can't really afford it right now. So, back to my question, is there a way to make sure the screen doesn't turn off when I'm calling someone? Is there a registry tweak or something? Or is there a setting I'm just not seeing?
I'm using pdaimatejam's WP7 version 8.1 (I think) ROM, if that makes any difference.
Thanks!
this is normal operate, not error... screen go off for reason you not break call when phone too close to ear with touch... but when you move phone from ear screen must turn on again....

When you accept a call, its a feature of Windows to switch off the light but sometimes it never comes back and you are stuck at "no display". I also face the same issue. Its the ROM bug. I'm also using pdaimatejam's WP7.
Don't worry... Your phone is fine
Also had this happen twice. But then I disabled the feature to turn on the speaker when the phone is turned during a call and it didn't happen ever since. Not sure if that's really the cause, but you could give it a try.

As I've mentioned, my phone light doesn't come back on when I remove it from my ear. This cannot be normal. It can't be normal that I have to reseat the battery after every failed call.

If you read my original post, I mentioned that I tried this on Android as well, and I get the same problem.

Yes I did.
I have the same problem as you, although I have not tried flashing android yet but that is my next step. When on a call screen goes off and never turns back on.
I use bluetooth headset so I can kill the call with it and screen comes back thankfully. But I can't delete voice mails or use the screen at all during a call. ON Pdaimatejam's 8.5 rom.
We don't have a fix for this yet?
for me its oks.. if the screen is off it may touch your skin and could end the call...if you remove the phone from your ear and would like to use the dialer while still on the call, the screen powers up automatically..

But that is just it, It doesn't power up automatically at all. It stays off no matter what you do untill you actually end the call! be that pull the battery, other person hangs up, or you use Headset to end call..
What rom are you using?

im using the latest from pdaimatejam. even the older 8.5, once i removed my phone to my ear, screen turns on even the call has not ended..
Would really love a fix for this also.. I must admit though that i don't think it is a hardware issue.. Nevertheless it could be fixed with a regedit or something like that.. Can't really use the phone anymore

Seems that the light sensor is broken, it's the little point in the upper left corner of the phone. The only workaround I see is to use a headset (BT or cable). With this you still can hang up any calls.
