Thanks.

Same question here. But also I would like to set the unit so that phone button and home button turn it on.

I was going to ask the same question
It's little bit annoying feature.
Anyone knows how to turn it off or disable ?

try this:
\HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\FastDormancyRule
from "1" to "0"
It's stopped mine from switching off backlight when I get through to voicemail, for example. I havent checked if it stays off for any length of time after that.
It didnt work.

To wake up the phone (and turn on the backlight) when we receive an SMS, We have to use Diamon TF3D config ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749 ) to enable the option.

When call answered, screen turns off

Every time i call someone, when they answer the call the screen turns off.
If i want to end the call or do anything else i have to turn the screen back on before i can press end.
Is there a way to stop this happening?
I have tweak_HD and changed all the settings on that but it still does it.

You have a soft key down to the right for ending calls. The screen turns off so you can stick the phone between your shoulder and ear if you must do something with your hands while in a call and thus not click something with your ear or face

The same problem.
Tweak HD did not resolved this issiue. Any other ideas cause it's relly annoying from mu point of view

already discussed
this is aproblem discussed many many time, is an energy setting. with HD tweak i think you can solve problem. but when you are in a call and screen goes to sleep tap on the on/off button of the blackstone and your screen retake from sleep.

I belive we're looking for solution which doesn't involve any buttons

The best solution should be to use the "light sensor" to turn on the screen soon as we remove the phone to our ear

I have heard that S2U2 (freeware) automatically turns the screen off when a call is connected and then automatically turns the screen back on when the call is disconnected. If you want to use the screen during the call, you need to slide your finger on the screen to unlock it.
I'm not sure if this directly addresses your problem, but it might be an option to try out. I have never used S2U2, so unfortunately I cannot confirm what it can and can't do or how well it does what it does.

After searching all day long (and testing too)... Good news for #1.3! I've found it!!! (poor HTC guys who want to hide all their tweaks...)
So, I will publish a new version tonight with this and some other minor corrections.
Don't forget to ckeck it via AppToDate (thanks again Paul, for this great neat app).

Turning screen back on when SMS comes in?

Hey guys, i noticed that when the screen turns off or goes into stand by and you recieve an SMS/MMS message, the alert sound still comes on, but the screen stays off. Is there a way to change this? It's sort of annoying having to press the top button just to see if a text message comes in. Can it be tweaked in the registry? If so, what would one have to do to change it? I have a registry editor installed on my phone so if anyone has any ideas......go ahead

Standby when phone call received
Hey all,
An extension of the Q above, When I make or receive phone calls, the screen shortly after goes blank, he only way to see the screen again to press the "Call" buttin again, which puts the caller the call on hold. I have to quickly press the "Unhold button again " which is very annoying!
Any ideas any1?
Thanks in Advance...

Use the power on\off button on top instead of pressing the the Dial button.. it was annoying for me too but the power button does it for me and it's better than to keep the screen on during the whole call since all my calls are above five mins

bump...someone has to have some idea what can be done to fix this

If you install HDTweak ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505 ), you can disable the screen switching off during a call and/or make the device wake up when a new SMS is received. It works for me.

Installing HD tweak and then going to 2.2 will solve your problem.

try the hd tweak or the diamond config both have twaeks to activate the screen when you receive the sms. but be sure to lock the phone for when you have it in your pocket.

NICE!!!! thanks guys for the info, i will try this ASAP when i get home
GAWD I LOVE THIS FORUM

Doesn't work for me

Hi there, I disabled 1.1 and it still does not seem to work for me
However, Enabled 2.1 and that works.
Please help ...

In HDtweak, I have 1.1 disabled, 1.2 Disallow, 1.3 Disabled
The screen doesn't go off during a call. I can always press the power button to turn off/on the screen manually if i want to save battery during a long call (or not attract attention when calling on a dark street!)

light up when recieve text?

Hi, site looks great, need to explore more, but reason i am here at mo is i'm trying to find out if there is a way to let the phone light up when a text is received? like a conventional phone/ this is my first wondows mobile / pocket pc thing, so its taking some time getting used to it
At moment though i have to press the power button to check if any texts, and this will be using power as pressing it when no texts are in (phone is silent at work)
IS this poss to achieve? either through settings, or a app?

You can use HD Tweak (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505) to turn on a feature that causes your phone to turn on when you receive a text.
You can also go to the Sounds and Notifications setting in your phone and check the box that will cause your little LED light on the power button to keep flashing until you check your message.

thanks for the help, will look into that

I did that and works great (thanks to HD Tweak) but I found out why they decided to not turn on the screen by default... whenever I receive a SMS and the phone is on my pocket, I start making calls by mistake...

Go to "Settings, Buttons"
Either select "Lock Device" or "Always display Quick list"
Long press on the end call key will then Lock all input so even if the phone does wake, it wont respond unless unlocked.
Locked phone is essential if you have a Bluetooth car or Earpiece as the phone will wake everytime on connect/disconnect also.

I use S2U2 and don't have this behaviour.
Sorry
Tony

i don't use S2U2 but it's happened to me a few times before. I reset the phone afterwards but every now and again it happens. No fix?

Hi
You may be able to resolve this by using advanced config and setting the "resuming timeout" values under the Power options to around 15 seconds.
What is probably happening is the phone wakes up in unattended mode (it still looks off) and it sends a start vibrate signal, however the phone then goes back to sleep before it has chance to send a vibrate stop signal.

Phil
