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

Hi,
I would like to know if there is any way that you can tweak the registry or install any application to enable the red button to close (or minimise) the phone dialer after completing the call (as you would do on a normal phone). It seems really silly to drag out the stylus to close (or minimise) the phone dialer after receiving a call.

Just assign record button to OK/Close function.
Red button problem
Well, I can't even get my red button to turn off the phone (although it says in the manual that it does this). Which means that I have to get out my stylus to turn the phone off if I, say, pop into the library. Even then the stylus click (2 clickes, as it brings up a menu first) doesn't always work, and when it does it is slow. I just want to pres a button , and IDEALLY WITHOUT HAVING TO OPEN THE CASE (but that's anotheer topic!). Has anyone else had this problem; do you know how to solve it?
@Cathy
Hi, Have you done a soft reset? Try .
Have you install new programs recently?

This is a known bug. It just doesn't work the way the manual describes. Currently, I know of no way around it, although I think everyone wants that feature back, so I guess HTC will fix it in a future ROM upgrade.

...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.
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!
I wish to know if other users may have encountered this minor problem ...
It happens from time to time that after pressing the left "telephone" button or soft-key, the numeric telephone keypad DOES NOT appear (i.e. it is impossible to compose new telephone numbers). The middle softkey does not work in these cases. A soft reset has sofar always fixed the problem. I have tried many possible solutions, but this problem always come back, usually 1-2 times a day.
Any help or advice?
Thank you very much

it happens with windows build 6.5.x and it is the problem of htc dialer with windows mobile new builds, as far as i know there isn't any solution for it yet just soft reset ... correct me please if i'm wrong!
i use temporary solution which helps to recover dialer go on home... rotate landscape... rotate portrait and press call button and its there
Or you can just set the Phone App to auto rotate using something like BsBTweaks. That way it the phonepad messes up, you just tilt the phone one way and then back again and hey presto. Keypad back and working again.
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!
