Quote this FAQ from myxda.com :
Q. Is it possible to activate the loudspeaker on my xda before choosing a telephone number? Is it possible to permanently turn the loudspeaker on loud, so i do not have to press the green button?
A. There is a way for doing this. The only disadvantage: after a soft-reset this setting is not activated anymore and must be readjusted. Dial any number, for example the Voicemail Box, so that nobody is disturbed by a phone call. Then disconnect and tip onto the signal symbol in the title bar. Tip onto the disconnect telephone button and then immediately press the green button (accept telephone call) keeping it pressed until the note appears: The loudspeaker is activated. The telephone then disconnects, without establishing a connection. The information that the loudspeaker is activated remains. The next step is turning on the telephone. The loudspeaker is turned on instantly with each dialled number. However, you can always turn the loudspeaker on or off by pressing the green button a little longer BEFORE dialling.
I've tried it and there is no response, even I can not get first step (Tip on the disconnect button ). May be this FAQ is only for XDA I ...
Has anybody tried it on an XDA II ?
Has anybody a way to permanently activate loudspeaker on XDA II ?
Yes, I've tried it, it works.
But sometimes could be difficult to activate due to some lag or slow response time for taps ... Once activated, the screen will look like this:
Can yo please explain it step by step ?
I've tried a lot of times, withou results. Thanks
ok, i found this easier:
- Turn on flight mode.
- Press green button for a few seconds until it says "Speakerphone is on". (Don't worry, as you're on flight mode, no call is made)
- Now, turn off flight mode to use the phone and have the speakerphone always on.
Enjoy.
No way !!
Turn On fligth mode.
--Press green Button while in TODAY opens Phone Screen
---Press green button while in PHONE screen shows Buuble "The phone is currently off. Dou you want to turn Wireless on?
I have ROM 1.60.00 WWE
-- Radio Version 1.10.00
You'll have to PRESS DOWN AND HOLD the green button for about 2 seconds. Not just one click.
Of course I did it
Have you been able to activate speakerphone during a call before?
The procedure is the same, press and hold down the Green button should activate, except that this is done when flightmode is on.
It's strange why your unit doesn't behave the same? Try hold down longer perhaps..
@chriswo
sorry for OT, but PLEEEEASSSE let me know the name of that software you're using for the today screen. i've been desperately looking for something like this for ages now.
thanks
regards ize|man
if you mean
chriswo's screenshot
then do you mean the signal strength
or ?
if you're talking about the launcher, it's called cLaunch, it's free.
Yes I can activate it during a call, and as I like it (it works 'sufficient' for me as a hands free for the car) is because I wanted to have it always activated.
May be there is some installed software. Will try to uninstall what is not essential. Can you post your rom & radio versions ?
boyz boyz you're fast as lightning
i just updated the screenshot. pls reload this page.
and YES it's cLaunch i just googled and it seems to be what i need (BIG buttons on the today screen)
thanks a lot
regards ize|man
Alrught, if you find it difficult to activate Speakerphone while on flight mode. try this:
On PHONE display, turn on flight mode and immediately PRESS AND HOLD DOWN the green button. Don't let it go completely on flight mode, so you got to do it while the radio was shutting down.
try that and let us know.
OK, this one WORKED without problem.
Now I have a 'perfect' and 'cheap' handsfree for my car.
THANK YOU very much !!!
Chriswo?
Where did you get that signalstrenght today plug in from ? looks really good
That's HudsonMobile PhoneDashboard.
Anyone notice if you cancel the speakerphone, then enable your bluetooth headset and make a call, the headset stays connected even after you end the call?
I don't know if this really is an advantage or not, I'll see how much more the battery drains if any.
Also, I notice that after activating the speakerphone "always-on", my ringetone gets almost silent. :?
I've noticed that my phone screen will turn off and go into standby mode when I'm on talking on the phone. So to even end a conversation, I have to turn it on and then hit end call. Shouldn't it by default stay on at all times while I'm in a call? Is there a setting I've missed somewhere?
Thanks.
You can press the red phone button to end the call without turning it on.
My THD keeps running out of battery power and it has taken me untill now to work out why.
If the THD is OFF and the phone rings it turns on, but when the call is finished IT STAYS ON and because I keep in my shirt top pocket every time I move it restarts the "turn off timeout" and I use up battery power.
Surely the phone should work this way:
THD ON when phone rings, it stays ON after the call is finished.
THD OFF when phone rings, it turns OFF when call is finished.
Is it possible for it to do that or can anyone sugest a solution.

I think if you keep it locked in your pocket you can still answer calls although it is in a locked state. When the call is finished it will go back to being locked automatically so you don't need to worry about activating anything on the phone in your pocket and it will go to sleep according to the settings you have made.
You can enable the AutoLock function so that you won't accidently touch it (although it got some bug with backlight).
Or you can use S2U2......(but it drain powers too).

I like the sensor lock, much nicer to make a rotational pattern to lock/unlock the phone. Makes the slide to unlock look outdated.

I do not think you understood what I was saying.
Auto turn off is TURNED ON
Keylock IS TURNED ON
When an incoming call "wakes up" my sleeping unit and I have a conversation on the phone, when I finished the call and press "end call button" the phone does not go back to sleep. It should shut down after the preset time of, in my case, 30 seconds. But because the phone is in my top shirt pocket every movement of my arms or body causes the screen to be touched and the 30 second closedown time starts all over again.
What I have to do at the moment whenever I finish a call is to press first the "end call button" and then the "turn off" button. What I need is one button that will end the call and shut the phone down as well.
Hi, I've the problem with incoming calls. Afer the ring and pressing the green button to answer the screen is turning off (just like standby mode). I can only press on/off switch to see screen again or stop call by pressing the red button, than all is displaying again. It isn't normal, I think, and very unconfortable to get options while a calling is on. Thanks for advices.
It is normal. It prevents you from touching the touch screen by your ear during the call , also saves some energy. If you need for example calendar during the call, you can push on/off button.
I think there is some registry hack which can prevent this behavior.
Also, see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460377
Hi,
I have a WWE HD2, running on TmoUS.
I use password protected screen lock. When I recieve a call, the options I see (after picking the call) are "unlock" and "end call". If I want to turn on the speakerphone (which I want most of the time) then I have to click "unlock", enter my passcode, and then get the menu to turn on speakerphone.
Is there any way to have the speakerphone option on locked screen call menu itself?
thanks,.
If you put your Leo over the table, facing down, the speakerphen starts himself.
You can also try long pressing the hard TALK Button.
