Missed call, a bug? - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

May I ask a very stupid question? How to answer an incoming call?
Problem: when I got a new call, the mobile keeps reminding me as normal but neither the answer botton nor the menu could pick the call up!
I swear the botton and menu function well and it has no other obvious faluty!

Actually I have similar? Was putting it down to sliding it out of the case causing the hng up button to be pressed.

Yeah, I also have a similar problem,
mostly the close to end and the end key itself doesn't work, i always have to press the en button on the screen.
This also happens to the answer button sometimes:S:S

I got this problem when i flashed from the Swedish rom to the Niki Project V1 ROM. Flashing back to the HTC WWE Asia rom fixed the problem. I use WWE HTC Asia because its available with the new touch.dll as it seems like Niki Project V2 doesnt have it cooked in. But Niki Project V2 doesnt seem to hang on calls, its just slower when you touch the screen.

Now I worked out a very complicated way to answer the call:
1 slide it out, to open the phone menu
2 touch the keypad
3 press green answer botten
It's the only way I could answer my call! So great! Thank you fu**ing design!

How to answer phone...

...only after pressing the green button or touching the answer text on screen??
I hate when is incoming a call, then I pickup the hermes from the case then I see that I've already answered the phone because some button was pressed during the pickup...
So if there's a call that I want to ignore at the moment, I can't (because I need to take the phone off to see who's calling).
Is there a solution for it? I searched the forum but could not find a similar problem.
Thanks
I had a similar issue while using the default case; it may be magnetic-related.
In my case I'm sure that this happend because some button was touched... I almost always see that my browser is running without opening it.
I am using MDA case and no problem so far.
I had a problem with cancel button getting pressed every time I pulled to phone out from the case to answer a call.
I installed AE Button Plus http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php to disable that button.

End Call key and wierd start menu

I admit defeat, I've serached and searched for both these issues so forgive me if they are stupid questions
First daft question, how does the end call key work? the actual hard button, not the one on the screen. I know it works because if I press it while in the control panel it'll beep and drop back to the today screen but try as I might when I have the phone app up it just will not end a call..... Whats it for if it doesn't do that?
The reason I need to know is my case has a hard cover for the screen so without opening the case I cant press "end" on the touchscreen.
Second daft question, sometimes when typing on the keypad (any of them) sometimes the startmenu pops up and I end up opening an app instead of pressing a key. So annoying when it happens LOL
I've tried loads of WM6.1 roms to resolve the problems but generally find something that doesn't work and am finding that WM5 (The original Orange UK ROM) is more stable and certainly quicker but nothing I do resolves these two problems.......
Oh and while I'm here, does anybody know which is the best threaded SMS thingy for WM5? loved that feature on 6.1
Thanks in advance for your time guys

Hello. I also have teh problem with teh start menu wich pops up when I touch the screen. Sometimes it happens more often, sometimes no. Anyone knows what might be the problem?

Lock after ending call

Hi all!
I have a problem with my HD2, that it won't lock after ending the call which I received while it was locked.
I'm aware there are threads about this, but none has a definite solution. So I contacted HTC support, and they told me to flash newest ROM. Before I do that, I want to check with you will it really help.
So please, try following procedure, and tell me your results:
1. Lock the phone.
2. Have someone call you.
3. Phone should unlock, allowing you to answer.
4. Answer.
5. End call (doesn't matter if it's hardware button, red end button, or caller hangs up)
6. What happens now? Is your phone locked (as it should be according to manual and common sense) or is home screen shown, and phone is not locked.
Thank you. Please also state your ROM.
Followed your steps. It really doesn't relock the phone o.o.
I'm on Dutty's 1.8

I have the same issue, tried have used several roms and none lock after hangup. its a pain when using headset and the phone is in my pocket...
Thank you for your replies. It strange how it doesn't bother more people, to me it's almost as big as SMS issue. We should all write to HTC.
being as i don't actualy use the phone for talking to people much i haven't noticed this but yes i totally agree this is bad
it probably doesnt bother many people as all you have to do is press the hang-up hard-key and it locks the screen...
I am running the latest 1.66 WWE standard ROM - same here remains unlocked after call.
I have tried pocketshield which does lock after call BUT it is VERY VERY buggy. It keeps changing settings on its own and at the moment I cannot access the keypad in a call so I can't use an automated service where you press number - pulling my hair out.
I have tried Dutty, Miri and Leo Lite Roms - they don't address the issue.
This is a major problem for me - never occurred with my HD (blackstone) so why has HTC introduced this and not sorted it????????
I'm using official 1.66 ROM amd the HD2 does not lock after a call, especially bothers me as I use Bluetooth pretty much all the time. resorted to using touch lock pro and lockandoff. setup touch lock pro to use tapi, and also to run lockandoff on hangup.

The keypad issue is resolved in the newest beta 3.2.9 (http://forums.jdbp.mobi/phorum/read.php?3,7368). This version also allows to "auto unlock" by using the proximity sensor which is very handy on the HD2.
About changing settings on its own... no idea, never happened to me
do you know if there is a registry string to make sure to lock the phone immediately after a call is from the screen or hardware button?
Thanks
A very simple solution (although a bit boring in time) is to use a password to unlock your phone. If a password has been used, the phone locks right after a call ends.
I know it's not the funniest thing, having to enter a password each time you want to unlock your phone, but hey, it does the trick!
And yes, it really is bad! Much cheaper and less sophisticated devices do that... Pfff...
both s2u2 and pocketshield have this ability. s2u2 is free, but pocketshield can be had for about 7.50. Much more functional than the stock lockscreens.
pocketshield I tried but I hate the screen because it hides the taskbar, possible that there is a registry string?
I downloaded S2U2 and tried it. Looks like a nice app at first, but:
a) It removes the "mute ringer" button when receiving a call. You may not see the exact same message, cause I'm translating from Greek, but I am talking about the gray button under the answer/reject slider.
b) It removes the "silent when I pick up" option. Again translation from Greek, I am talking about the option to turn down the ringer when you lift the phone.
c) After the application is removed (eventually, I couldn't live without the two forementioned features), I had the same problem I had before, the phone wouldn't lock with the "power" button, nor would it lock after some time of inactivity.
Code:
showpost.php?p=8029180&postcount=14
I had to hard-reset it once again...
Such a shame...

How to lock all buttons exept power button

how to lock all buttons exept the power button in wm6.5 ?
In wm6.1 it was possible to change that in settings/keys menu. But in wm6.5 this is gone for some stupid reason!
I dont want to use ext. app like pocketshield for such a basic and simple feature.
Reason: when phone is screenlocked - any hardwarekey wake up phone from standby. And of course the screen pops up and drain battery. HD2 keys are recessed and in the pocked can easyly accidentialy get pressed. When screen weaks up for some reasons (incoming call or other notification event) the buttons are not locked and i dont need to describe what funny things can happen then (just imagine on your own). Even accidentialy changes to my settings happened in my pocket without recognising.
HTC: this is ridiculous.
Pls help. Is there maybe a easy reghack to activate this basic feature again, like it was implemented in previous Rom versions?
the button lock in WM6.5 is the same as WM6.1 (got X1 before)
but in HD2 it's different.. and I don't think anyone solved this problem yet...
No known solution indeed, apart from using S2U2, and if you want to save more battery adding proximitylock.
what if you locked the keys while you are making a call with bluetooth and you want to look in your phone? You'd have to press the "end call/power" button..
Also since the power button turns the screen off, I automaticly press the same button to turn the screen on when I'm not making a call.. I can't count the times I've ended a call by accident like this.. another great design flaw of this phone
I still hope someone will find a solution for a working hardwarebuttonlock
no one found a solution yet?
i'm having the same problem and strangely i am irritating myself to death on this,
Not a good job HTC!

I have searched and then made this thread. There were some people with home button issue but None of those were related to my problem.

I have had my S4 for a couple of months now and I am addicted to flashing. I flash a test lot of new roms.
MY PROBLEM
When i make or I get a call, Once i pick the call and put my phone to the ear and after the proximity sensor turns off the screen i cannot use my home button or powerbutton to wake the screen during call. For example if i want to cut the call During a call. I simply cannot do it. Sometimes the home button will respond, Some times it wont
For the home button to work The other party has to cut the all only when my phone detects that the call has been disconnected it wakes up. Looks like the home button stops functioning ?
I dont know what is happening.
I thought it was the rom issue, But it isnt. I tried two different roms. Did the same behaviour.
Any advice or anything to help me will be appreciated. Is my hardware damaged?
