Hi
I have the new ROM from HTC which has the new feature for the phone "Slide 2 Answer\Reject".
While this is kinda cool, its really annoying me because everytime I get a call and phone is in my trouser pocket, while pulling phone out the screen drags against inside of pocket and rejects the call!! Seriously, I have rejected loads of calls since this feature
I prefer no silly answer like "dont put in pocket", "turn phone around" etc
Did install S2u2 but delay in response so uninstalled. I just want to go back to the original but far to thick to know how.
Any help?
Cheers
Go S2U2 settings and remove this function by selecting "off" inthere..

Hi, I have a problem with my phone sometimes. When i'm on the phone or the phone rings and i go to take it out of my pocket or its case, the ignore softkey is UBER fricken sensitive and sends the caller to my voicemail. Is there is a way to basically disable the softkeys when the phone is in use or when the phone is ringing? I use the softkeys for other programs but this is really frustrating. Thanks.
bump anyone?
i find it hard to believe that NO ONE has an answer to this...i assumed this would be something easy to remedy... :roll:
Hi,
been looking for a tweak about this, but haven't been able to find any.
Does anyone know how to disable the screen on the TyTN to turn on when receiving SMSs? It's very annoying, as the only notification I need is the beep sound and having the screen come to life everytime I receive an SMS is a hazzle when it comes to carrying it in my pocket. Touch-screens are a wonderful thing, but not turned on while in ones pocket. ;-) All sorts of nasty things could happen then.
Cheers,
Steffen
don't know how to totally disable this but you could use a program called mortsaver that lets you lock the screen a bit more like a conventional phone.
for example, I have to press the power button then the internet explorer button within 2s to unlock the screen.
when you receive a message the screen stays locked, although not when I get a call (might be able to change that tho).
I use spb pocketplus to put a 'lock' shortcut on my today screen that activates mortsaver.
I can't remember the website but google it and i'm sure you'll find it.
cheers
Thanks!!!
I've installed MortSaver 2.0 and it really does the trick!! Thanks for the advice.

start->settings->sounds and notifications->notifications->event:new incoming SMS->uncheck "display msg on screen"
Anyway I can disable phone poping up with the green button?
its a lot easier just to add something like slide2unlock or some other kind of locking program to keep your leg from hitting the call button.
"Phone calls people in pocket"
You phone is calling people in your pocket? How did those people get in there?
LOL, ok...seriouly, just use the 'lock' function. There is an iphone type unlocker called slide2unlock, where u have to slide to unlock it, or you can just use the native Windows Mobile lock feature, by going into Start, Settings, Today, Items, and checking the "Lock" feature
I used S2U2 after doing the same thing you did... my bro in law called me and asked me why I called him 3 times.. he said he heard people in the background.... so S2U2 has stopped that...
I just always put the phone to sleep before it goes in my pocket.
I really like some of the things about S2U2, and I apologize if this has been posted before...
I want to have something that will lock my screen but allow me to go back to where I was before I left off. The "system" lock that was put into the Telus ROM sucked, it completely removed whatever you were doing and cancelled back to the home screen.
I put on S2U2 and it was great, very pretty, etc. but when I was done with a call, I'd see the prompt come up with "Do you want to save this number?" but it locks immediately afterwards.
I also really like the TF3D interface that comes up when a call comes in, with their "slide to answer" function, and would also like to keep that.
So, basically, I only want the S2U2 to come on when I've put the device to sleep, not when resuming from receiving a call.... I'm asking too much, aren't I?
Is there any way to stop that?
Also, when putting it into Landscape mode, it buggers up the entire screen and I can't see anything. I don't have a screen shot, but it's a major annoyance.
The last problem you mentioned is already known. S2U2 has some problem in landscape if you used the album before.
Try to deactivate the caller ID in the S2U2 settings. I don't have any problem with S2U2 and incoming calls so far.
Sorry. not too sure by what you mean by album before. Can you explain what I have to change to get lanndscape to work?
Im running MattC Leo Sense which uses a slide/lock for both the phone lock and to answer phone calls. I was able to change the phone lock slider from up/down to left/right but I want to do the same with answering phone calls.
What happens with incomming calls is someone calls me and I pull my phone straight up and out of my pocket. When I do this, the phone rejects the call because the phone rubs against my inside pocket and slids the answer/slide to reject phone call. If I could change the answer/slide from up/down to left/right then this wouldnt happen.
Does anyone have this issue and/or know of a fix?
Thanks

you can just set a screen lock on it and it doesnt show up until u unlock the screen lol.. thats wat i have or else it answers or ignores people in my pocket.. so with the connect the dot screen lock it just rings and shows u who it is until u unlock the screen...
Can you please tell me how you changed the unlocker from up/down to left/right. I would really appreciate.

same problem here, i've tryed the lockscreen tactic. but i find that very annoying. I have no program skills but there must be some guy who can make a small apk that deletes the slider and replaces it with nothing =) so i can just use the hard buttons on my HD2...
Just to bring the issue up again im still having massive problems with calls being ignored or answered (depends on which way the phone is in my pocket)
Anyway have any idea, ive tried widget locker but that only seems to apply to lock screen and not phone call screen.
This issue had anoyed me for a while as well. I have tried widget locker and that works great for the phone lock, but as mentioned earlier in this thread - not for the incoming call locker.
If someone fixes this for the sense based ROMs, they will be my hero!
cyanogen mod ROM includes the "slide to answer" from lockscreen window similar to "widget locker" app. i just wish they would include the option to add widgets and shortcuts to the lockscreen like widgetlocker does

I have the exact same problem, and looking for a fix.
same problem here
people hung up on me because phone answered in my pocket and they would hear noise while I'm removing it from my pocket/case >.>
setting a lock screen is so annoying, now I remove my phone carefully so I don't answer by mistake.
[edit] I've searched around the net, and downloaded a few new lock screens. there's one called "simply lock screen" it has an option to disable the slide to answer, and it will be replaced by the normal answer buttons you get when the device is not sleeping. it might work, but there's still chance that the answer/dismiss buttons will be pressed when you remove the device from the pocket
same problem here... no one has a clue yet?
the problem is htc sense...to avoid this problem i have switched to stock android builds...
There are a couple of apps out there that can help, the best I have found is Easy Answer Button. It is a bit tempermental, but if you install it as your last app after a fresh flash, it tends to work better - at least imho.
Others are Advanced Telephone (also free) and EZAnswer which will cost you a couple of bucks. (The link is to the 2 day trial).

Why don't you just delete htclockscreen.apk from system/app.
It will change sense up and down answer to left, right standard android lockscreen.
Use root explorer or the like and reboot afterwards to see changes.
