I don't know if this is due to davideucks's ROM, because I was using stock ROM and after a while I also have this problem. The problem was not there when the ROM was first flashed, but after some applications were installed it is there. The first press brings up the volume, and I expect the second press to change the volume, but instead it seems to send a up arrow key signal.
I thought it was AEBPlus, but I did a fresh installed of stock ROM, at which time the volume was functioning perfectly. Then without even AEBplus, the problem came back after some applications were installed.
Have not identified which application is responsible yet.

Maybe it would be helpful to post this in david's rom thread? You may get a fix from him that way.

it would be better if you guys could ask this in the correct thread, and not starting new threads about issues.
If everyone started new threads about their issues/bug reports, then this forum would become the famous needle in a mount everest sized haystack (some ppl consider it to be allready..)
cheers

Why not simply change the title of the thread to describe the problem. I think it is a problem for other ROM too, so it may not be appropriate to post it in the Davideuck ROM thread.
To confirm, why not do a hard reset, and test the volume rocker to see if it works before any other software is installed?
Edit: I just flashed Davideuck 4.5 and found no problem with the volume control prior to any other software being installed into it. I'm insterested in this issue because I need to resolve this problem too on the stock ROM.

There is no problem with Davideuck's 4.5 ROM. I have used it for a while with NO problem at all. Its really fast and Stable. I have been waiting for his V5 for a while now and just flashed another ROM.
May be you have installed AE button app and that might be causing the issue you have described.
I second the statement that you should change the thread title to something more specific to your issue or list your issue within the original ROM thread.

I would have to rule that out, as I did not install AE button yet when the behaviour changed.

Another example of newbs never reading or posting in correct threads
Encouragement from "Senior" members does not help either, this will merely encourage more newbs to post willy nilly creating more chaos and more confusion.

Could it be your own 3rd party app? Anyway, this is not an appropriate way to label a thread, if you really thought it is specific to Davideuck's rom then it should be in that thread. At first glance a new thread with a title like that makes it seem that perhaps the rom is erasing the contact database or making calls on its own, not something so trivial as was posted.
Now, let's let this thread die by not posting anymore because it is highly misleading and we all know that Davideuck is a super cook with one of the best roms on offer for the HD.

I have no doubt that this problem has nothing to do with Davideuck's ROM. I think the moderator should change the title to somthing like "Volume rocker problem" and put it under the Blackstone subforum.

Anyone else having this problem?

Mystery solved
The offending software is Resco Contact Manager Beta.
Once you install this software, your first press could bring up the volume adjustment screen, but subsequent press will not be able to increase or decrease the volume.
To solve the volume button problem, do NOT assign anything to the SEND button in resco.
Confirm once again that it is not the fault of any ROM, cooked or uncooked.

Phone Button Problem.

Hello everybody, I am facing a strange problem. Some of my phone buttons have stopped working as they used to work before. The complete buttons on the front panel at times they work and at times they don't. The below mentioned buttons only are not working:
1. The Internet Explorer button.(Above on the right)
2. The Message button.(Above on the left)
3. The Call buttons. (The call picking and disconnecting button, below left and right) And the 4 keys along it.
And one more strange problem is the phone goes to the internet explorer by its own, at times when i open the phone it is on the internet explorer, though before going to the sleeping mode after getting locked it is on the normal screen but when i switch it on and put the password, i find it on the internet explorer screen. Pls help to resolve these problems, I'll highly appreciate you all.
The buttons would be controlled in the settings section.
But I have to agree about the IE coming up. I think its related to getting the phone out of the case on your belt and it presses itself - as it were. I've tried setting that button to nothing to see if that makes any difference.

Thnks for the msg. Can you advise where in the settings section the changes have to be done.
Regarding IE, i believe it is not due to removing and inserting in the cover. Even when it is removed from the cover, and at times if i press the key which is right below the contact(to open contact details), It opens IE and with the call button which is the green one also.
Pls help me, I never knew atleast with this device after spending a huge amount still i will come across such problem. I am really frustrated with the device.
Anybody pls help!!!!!
Regards Pankaj
which model do u have? i am having the same problem with my Softbank X01HT / Dopod 838Pro. Also change the buttons setting does not work

This may be quite wrong but I'm just wondering if you guys have programmes running in the background. You may know that just tapping on the X top right does not close programmes down fully. You need something like Magicbutton or HTC X Button installed to quickly and fully close running programmes. If you don't have such an application installed then some of these hard keys may be responding to the background programmes. It would not surprise me in this case that Internet Explorer pops up because it's never been fully closed.
Just a thought.
And if you knew all this already I apologise, but it might be useful to someone who didn't know.

Not saying this is the cause of your problem but could be.
Magic Button shows running programmes and lets you fully close them:
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=7438
It will ask for you to register and give e-mail address but you do not need to, you can still download without doing all that.
There are other programmes like HTC X Button but this one works fine.
Mike
i have the same problem! maybe something funny is going on with JASJAMs... anyway, i tried pressing the IE button after resetting the device (soft reset) and it STILL says it cant find the location. it must be SOMEWHERE in the registry!
can anyone please help??

Can we assume that IE works ok when you start it from the Start Menu, and that it is only when you try to start it from the hardware key it does not work?
Mike
yes thats exactly right. runs perfectly! i'm wondering if maybe the entry in the registry has gone missing...?

Given the programme is working fine, this I think will be a simple matter of remapping the key to the shortcut/programme. Unfortunately it's late here, hopefully someone else can give you the detail. If not I'll check this thread tomorrow.
Mike

Go to Start>settings>Buttons>
Select button 2 and choose Internet Explorer from the drop down list below.
(If IE is already chosen then I would choose something else for button 2 (anything) tick to say ok. Try the button it should open whatever programme you selected. Now go back to the buttons menu and choose Internet Explorer for button 2 again.)
Hopefully this will work if not report back.

Whenever I'm receiving call, my answer button does not work nor it opens Phone-application when I press it. Also those two keys at top of green answer button and red hangup button does not work. Can anyone help me?
Same here!

Same thing here...
It seems to be totally "randomness"...
Which ROM did u install on your devices ?
Did u install third party softs ? (I especially think about SPB softs)
Actually I've Faria's rom.
But i tried to reflash many others roms & different versions... (black, lvsw...)
Also reflashed the IPL...
Also refreshed to olipro...
Also, also, also...

Do you have SPB installed on the phone? I had that problem on two ROM's happened and even thou i love SPB Shell i had to uninstall it and i never had the phone freeze problem when ever i got a call.. You can try to deactivate SPB and see what happens as well..
Mind to tell me how to disable this software? Is it something called "softkeys" ?

Disabling SPB would be done through teh Remove Programs app under settings > system.
Or maybe through the Today Plugin screen - select it and see if there are options.

Keyboard doesnt pop up in landscape

Hi,
has anyone else the same problem?
the keyboard doesnt pop up when clicking on a text box. not even the keyboard-sign appears in the lower bar, so typing is not possible. it is esp. annoying in opera because browsing is kind of senseless without a keyboard.
i'm using my touch hd exclusively in landscape mode. The autorotate program is flip it and im running duttys v3.
would like to know if more ppl have this problem

that was me posting in the dutty v3 thread but there werent many replies. only one or two encountered the same problems since a lot of the dutty users seem not use landscape mode.
apart from that i dont really know if this has to be discussed in the dutty development thread since it could also be a problem of winmo or flipit or anything else. my research brought me to the conclusion that winmo is responsible for showing an input device whenever a text box is marked.
also the dutty thread is too big already. i have to read 10 or more pages to see if someone answered to the question. too many ppl asking how to flash or how to make their cats flash devices
so, if anyone has the same problem pls post here with your config
thx

Sorry if these same obvious or if you have already tried/stated these. I'm just asking these questions to get a better understanding of your problem and to see if I can replicate/solve your issue
Have you had similar problem on any other roms?
Is it standard HTC keyboard you are using?
Have you tried using HDTweak Automatic display pop up?
Have you tried a hard reset and then testing keyboard before installation of apps, then adding each app one at a time to see if any of them are conflicting with it?

I don't think I've had this problem on a non-Dutty ROM, but I'm not sure about that.
I use Fingerkeyboard.
I haven't tried the tweak you mention - but I'm not sure it would change anything since the problem is NOT PERMANENT! Sometimes the keyboard does pop up, sometimes it doesn't. Seems to be pretty random...

SOrry for the late reply...
i dont think i had the same problem with standard rom (autorotate app was changescreen)
i tried standard htc and fingerkeyboard
no, i havent tried hdtweak since the duttyroms are already tweaked by duttythroy and i dont want to mess it up. what exactly does the function "automatic display pop up"?
i hard reset after flash and tested directly afterwards. same problem.
does anyone know if this problem is still in duttys 3.3?
thx
hdizzel
The problem is still there in v3.3,i have read every possible thread and did every possible search,i cannot find anything mentioned about this and i cannot find a solution. It is kinda lame to have to rotate the phone everytime i need to write smthing on opera,but meh i can live with this inconvenience, Dutty's Rom is worth it tbh.
Even so if anyone finds anything pls report back would be nice to solve this

Currently using V3.3 and I'm still not replicating your problem. If I use Opera or msm in landscape fingerkeyboard automatically pops up for me.
I've used HD Tweak with basically every rom I've flashed and had no problems with it. I'd go as far as saying it actually improves the phones experience and userability.
Try using it and see if it also helps you with your keyboard display
The funny thing is that i have HD Tweak installed(and auto pop enabled),and had it on every rom i used(well basically all of Dutty's Roms since 2.4),dont know what is going on.Maybe it is smth else on my phone,will try reflashing and using Fingerkeyboard only as the first app.Btw this only happens in opera for me.

ok, I finally see were your coming from as I am experiencing it as well. Not sure why this is though. I'll look into it and see if I can find a solution.
I never really use landscape to be honest, especially in Opera as loading time of pages is slower.
well i use landscape on opera mainly for forum browsing cause i can see more text!anyways awaiting on news about this,and i am gonna try some tweaking around myself.
Arrgh!!! Really annoying, Clownshoes figured it out before me!!! LOL. Trust you mate!!
Ok mate, it seems it does work, you have to hold down for 2 secs in input field, no more, no less and it should then pop up. You can thank Clownshoes for that one!
Let me know how you get on

Hmm,i might be doing something wrong,i press and hold in the input field for 2secs or so and nothing really happens,well if i press for more the opera menu pops up "select all" but other than that nothing.
Maybe it has something to do with keyboard settings like the popup timer or something similar,although my settings are on default. i'll keep trying though.
Thanks for trying to solve this

ok, which method are you using to rotate opera? Are you using FlipIt?
I've noticed if I set flipit to 0 and 270 degrees and then enter opera. The first time the keyboard will not pop up. But if I exit opera and then re-enter it works fine.
Have you tried a soft reset?
It seems to be very sensitive. Try using just the tip or nail of your finger in the text entry area for about a second.
It also helps if you double tap to zoom into the text entry box.
I've just tested it by doing it over and over again and using the tip of my finger seems to work every time.
this is very weird,i got it to pop but it is extremely sensitive,dunno what makes it behave like this.
Anyways thanks for the solution guys.

[TIP] Do you have SOD? Try this then...

Hey there!
For all of you with SoD, please do try my idea... been testing all afternoon, and even though its early to say, I'm sure it is working.
It occurred to me, that maybe windows still had some control over the hard keys while running Android.... so i had the following idea!
Install AE Button Plus 2.6.5.cab (or maybe another version) and UNBIND all hard keys. I guess maybe the End/Lock key will be enough, but i just unbinded all of them as i dont use Windows mobile anyway since i got Android! ahaha . THEN, launch our dear Android the usual way. This way, I can still answer calls and navigate using touch if i do feel like using Windows Mobile for whatever strange reason!
I now use FD Droidboot and disabled sense/titanium on my barebones Miri Rom.
Result: Screen comes up every single time i press the lock key, and goes off every single time i click the same key. Works as it should now. Immediate response too (using a class 2 card)
Brilliant! Me very happy! This was getting annoying.
Also, yeah i confirm, the workaround for the mic gain, using the wired headset, seems to work for me.
Darkstone Desire V5
Radio : 2.12.50.02_2 (does seem better on the battery! Thanks to whoever suggested it! and thanks to all the devs and testers!)
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS WORKS! Just thought that I should share this since a lot of people are having the same issue....
Peace and Kudos to everyone and specially to the programmers!

How to disable Lock/End key in Winmo?
Yep, was working all day flawlessly, but towards the end of the day was getting slow and started happening again... even after restarting. Thanks for the help testing this!
Now i notice that after having unbinded all keys, all of them except the End call key, are still unassigned.
Is there a fix or registry key to completely "disarm" the Lock/End key while in Win Mo? I still think this is related to SOD somehow.

[Q] Use send button to answer phone!

Hi,
Does anyone know how to answer the HTC HD2 phone using the send key rather than just using the slider. since upgrading to the latest ROM on HTC site it does not answer the call anymore using the send key.
I have looked for an answer to no avail.
Anyone know how?
RM
i dont think this is an option that can be turned on and off !!!!
i`ve flashed my phone so many times with official, cooked winmo & couple of android builds
the send key always works, never had a problem with it

The only thing that could possibly have any control over the send button answering phone calls is a registry key. I am not sure if there is a registry key for this or not but it is the only thing that could control the send button being used to answer phone calls. With that said my advice to you is to try doing a hard reset of your HD2. I say this for two reasons, one this will revert any unwanted changes to your registry. Two you said this problem started after flashing the latest official ROM from HTC. Anytime you flash a ROM official or custom it is recomended to do a hard reset after flashing as this will fix any little issue that might arise from something not getting set properly.
Thanks for your replies, i have no idea why this still does not work after me applying hte suggestions. It must be software, the button phsically works with other apps but just not to answer the phone.
Might be something that is loaded on the phone....?
I will keep looking as this is not a nice thing to have to live with.
