Disable wakeup in case of call via bluetooth - P3600 General

I have a small problem. I have my phone paired with my car via bluetooth. Is there a way to disable the screen from turning on when a call comes through and the phone is paired with the car (or a headset for that matter).
A more favorable solution would be so that the buttons (except power) would be disabled, since the root of the problem is that when I get a call, and Im talking via the car, as Im driving, the bumps in the road cause the phone to rock around the place where I put it, and it presses all the different hardware buttons (like hang up).

Answering calls when open and Speakerphone mic volume

Hi,
Is there anything that can be done to improve the mic volume when on speaker phone - I have had complaints when more than a foot or so away that people can't hear me.
I have the phone open on my desk most of the time and am just trying to work out the best way to deal with calls as they come in. At the moment unplugging the USB and then flipping the screen and then trying to answer the call seems a bit ham fisted and I keep on loosing calls
I personally never use my MDA Pro as a conventional phone. I find it too bulky. My own method is to always use a bluetooth headset.
If I was in your situation, I would have the Universal open on my desk, with the bluetooth headset lying beside it. When the phone rings, simply put on the bluetooth headset,press the call receive button on it, and away you go.
You don't really need to flip the screen, just close it and then use the green button to answer the call. Will work fine with the USB connected if you don't mind people looking at you strangely.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the responses.
I don't have a headset so haven't gone down that route yet. Will they work with Skype and VOIP software etc on the phone?
As for closing and then picking up, I'm wondering if the phone has a problem because I have tried this a couple of times and have lost the calls although I am generally unplugging the USB, closing the phone and then answering - have only had the phone a couple of days so still getting the hang of it.
Hmmm....can it be used when in pda mode to answer and make calls... I have tried this, but I think either my machine's mic & speakers dont work on the inside (screen side) of the clamshell, the other person on the line can't hear, and I hear their voice (distantly), which means it is coming out of the back of the screen, not the front. Its either that or the device just isnt designed to work in this orientation.
Has anyone else tried recieving or making calls with the screen facing out in portrait mode?
Re the Bluetooth headset answering method, great idea, I do this, but I have found that sometimes my o2 blue headset loses the pairing when I press the answer call button, so I lose the call anyway.
Can anyone tell us how it should work, will the recent rom upgrade fix this, is there even a mic and speaker on the inside lid?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The Mic is right next to the power button, so it is as close to your mouth when in PDA mode or closed. Also There are two speakers on the hinged lid, in PDA mode it's the slightly recessed oval shape 10mm from the top dead centre.
I've never discovered a software method of disabling this speaker. Possibly a hardware fault? Might be worth discussing with your handset provider

Switch from headset to speaker?

Hi,
I just bought a used Trinity a few weeks back, and I'm still playing around with it. I've got a question (searched the forums + read the manual with little results).
How do you switch between the wired headset and the internal speaker?
Currently, from my setup (I'm using AXL's 3.0.6 rom), the sound doesn't immediately switch from speaker -> headset unless I put the phone in standby and then turn it back on again. This will cause some problems if I happen to be listening to music (I use an adapter), and then an incoming call comes in... the phone is then totally useless unless I also happen to be carrying my wired handsfree kit....
Please tell me that this is not the normal mode of operation...
opposite
I've got the opposite problem, I cant switch from the speaker to the wired headphones, I thought it would have done it automatically, but nothing....how did u get urs to work?
I couldn't get it to work. However, I've mastered the quick art of turning the phone off, pulling out the adapter, and waiting for the ring to turn the phone on again... sometimes it still doesn't switch back to internal speaker mode, which irritates me and my caller.
From what I read, it's a hardware thing, and I'm too lazy to get it replaced currently, so I'll wait till it's totally broken and then replace it.

Phone automatically dials with headphones

Hi all,
Not sure why this happens but when I have my adapter (eBay link: http://tinyurl.com/l9maca) plugged into my car (phone<->mini-jack cable<->adapter<->car stereo) I either have voice dial launch automatically or the phone dialing the last number in call history. The voice dial isn't too bad since it launches and idles but the redial is really annoying. The headphones it came with did that too after a lot of wear and tear. Any know what causes it?? Is there a pin in the plug that I need to ground/disable? I would like to enjoy my music going without having to frantically grab my phone and hammer on the end call button while I'm driving.
Thanks.
holy crap i have the same problem with my phone, i dont have a car adapter but the headset thing is really annoying, i dont have the problem solved though....just figured i need to get a new pair of headphones which i havnt got around doing it
i have the same problem when i use headphones and i'am using them on my motocycle althought i lock the touchscreen, not even aplications like pocketshield didn't solve the problem. i hope that someone will come up with a solution that just disable the redial double tap function of the headset button or speed dial hold function. this functions also unlocks the touchscreen.

how to keep it locked when making a BT call?

When my Imagio (stock Verizon ROM) is locked, and a call comes in, it stays locked. This is great because I can answer it with my car's BlueTooth unit and never take the phone out of my pocket and no buttons get accidentally pressed. But, if I initiate a call from the car's BT unit, I notice that the phone app comes up on the phone and while it does go back to the locked state *after* the call is over, during the call the screen is responsive to presses even though it was locked. This is no good because I've had stuff changed accidentally by my jacket's contact with the screen while it's in a pocket during a BT call.
Does anyone have any idea how to keep it in the locked (screen unresponsive) state when initiating calls by BT?
I'm having the same problem. I have noticed that the phone acts differently in different cars. Although the phone is locked after the call in one of my cars, that's only effective if my holster hasn't started pushing buttons, which keeps it from locking.
My previous (Motorola Q) phone did not unlock during bluetooth calls.
Verizon was no help when I reported this problem to Tech Support.
Thanks.

Two strange issues

1. car bluetooth (07 TSX)
When i dial a number, i am not able to transfer to bluetooth until the receiving person picks up the phone. I have to keep watching the phone until the counter starts. Is it my car (07 TSX) or any car bluetooth.
When i was using EVO 3D, i would select bluetooth, i hear ringing sound, as soon as the phone connects, it changes to handset mode, then i will select bluetooth again. This was also annoying but could not help and it was usable.
2. the phone makes a "faling coins" sound through SPEAKER when i shake the phone (THIS IS ADDITIONAL TO MINOR RATTLING NOISE)
its gone when deselected " Dialpad touch tones" and it does not come even if i select it now.
I have not seen this before, is it normal or some kind of setting.
