Hey guys i have been looking everywhere and don't really seem to find the solution to my problem.
I have a mytouch and have flashed it with a Hero ROM (eugenes 3G Uni). and every time i go to talk on the phone my cheek i guess touches the screen and hangs up. i am looking for something that will IMMEDIATELY lock the screen within a call or something.
This never happened when i had cm ROM (obviously because there were no touch buttons in the in-call menu.)
any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks
So I guess I'm the only one that this happens to?
Hi all!
I have a problem with my HD2, that it won't lock after ending the call which I received while it was locked.
I'm aware there are threads about this, but none has a definite solution. So I contacted HTC support, and they told me to flash newest ROM. Before I do that, I want to check with you will it really help.
So please, try following procedure, and tell me your results:
1. Lock the phone.
2. Have someone call you.
3. Phone should unlock, allowing you to answer.
4. Answer.
5. End call (doesn't matter if it's hardware button, red end button, or caller hangs up)
6. What happens now? Is your phone locked (as it should be according to manual and common sense) or is home screen shown, and phone is not locked.
Thank you. Please also state your ROM.
Followed your steps. It really doesn't relock the phone o.o.
I'm on Dutty's 1.8

I have the same issue, tried have used several roms and none lock after hangup. its a pain when using headset and the phone is in my pocket...
Thank you for your replies. It strange how it doesn't bother more people, to me it's almost as big as SMS issue. We should all write to HTC.
being as i don't actualy use the phone for talking to people much i haven't noticed this but yes i totally agree this is bad
it probably doesnt bother many people as all you have to do is press the hang-up hard-key and it locks the screen...
I am running the latest 1.66 WWE standard ROM - same here remains unlocked after call.
I have tried pocketshield which does lock after call BUT it is VERY VERY buggy. It keeps changing settings on its own and at the moment I cannot access the keypad in a call so I can't use an automated service where you press number - pulling my hair out.
I have tried Dutty, Miri and Leo Lite Roms - they don't address the issue.
This is a major problem for me - never occurred with my HD (blackstone) so why has HTC introduced this and not sorted it????????
I'm using official 1.66 ROM amd the HD2 does not lock after a call, especially bothers me as I use Bluetooth pretty much all the time. resorted to using touch lock pro and lockandoff. setup touch lock pro to use tapi, and also to run lockandoff on hangup.

The keypad issue is resolved in the newest beta 3.2.9 (http://forums.jdbp.mobi/phorum/read.php?3,7368). This version also allows to "auto unlock" by using the proximity sensor which is very handy on the HD2.
About changing settings on its own... no idea, never happened to me
do you know if there is a registry string to make sure to lock the phone immediately after a call is from the screen or hardware button?
Thanks
A very simple solution (although a bit boring in time) is to use a password to unlock your phone. If a password has been used, the phone locks right after a call ends.
I know it's not the funniest thing, having to enter a password each time you want to unlock your phone, but hey, it does the trick!
And yes, it really is bad! Much cheaper and less sophisticated devices do that... Pfff...
both s2u2 and pocketshield have this ability. s2u2 is free, but pocketshield can be had for about 7.50. Much more functional than the stock lockscreens.
pocketshield I tried but I hate the screen because it hides the taskbar, possible that there is a registry string?
I downloaded S2U2 and tried it. Looks like a nice app at first, but:
a) It removes the "mute ringer" button when receiving a call. You may not see the exact same message, cause I'm translating from Greek, but I am talking about the gray button under the answer/reject slider.
b) It removes the "silent when I pick up" option. Again translation from Greek, I am talking about the option to turn down the ringer when you lift the phone.
c) After the application is removed (eventually, I couldn't live without the two forementioned features), I had the same problem I had before, the phone wouldn't lock with the "power" button, nor would it lock after some time of inactivity.

I had to hard-reset it once again...
Such a shame...
Hi,
I am just wondering is there any program or even something somewhere in the Touch HD settings that allows you to set the phone up so that when there is an incoming call the screen stays off?
The reason i ask for this is that when i'm at work i use a Krusell pouch and most of the time when pulling it out i end up catching something on the screen to either end the call, put them on hold etc
I have the latest HD Tweak installed and haven't found any setting in there for it (Or did i miss something?).
Also i'm running Topix 3.0.2 Sense WM 6.1.
Thank you in advance for any information/advice
Ok so i found something after some more searching called Pocketshield but it seems to crash after a soft reset.
Does anyone know a stable program that does the same thing?
Thanks
I got a HD2 from eBay and got ripped by getting one that has sound disabled; LED disabled and so as vibration. The buyer ran away so you know how it goes...
Here the symptom, the HD2 is functioning like normal other than:
- No sound what so ever: even when pressing the volume up/down button it does not trigger the volume menu
- LED never turns on: both green and orange
- No vibration: tried to play with all possible settings and it never vibrates
- When on the phone, the other end can hear me but I can never hear a thing.
Researched through all forums and I couldn't find anything helpful at all. Any help is appreciated!
try reflashing a stock ROM could be something with the registry keys or manilla files hope this kind helps
I had flashed it with the latest TMO US HD2 ROM as I found out it was a demo TMO US HD2. It is Version 2.13.531.1. And the problem persists.
Anything else I can try? This seems to be a software issue as the functions that aren't working are pretty much within the same category.
I'm unable to use my keypad, mute, and hold button while in the middle of a call. This isn't the first time I've had this problem. I've had two HTC HD2's and this has occured on both. The first phone had the stock ROM, but the second I'm using the ENERGY ROM. I've tried uninstalling apps, themes to see if that fixes the problems, but I haven't had any success. It's like the whole screen freezes while in the middle of a call, then once I hang up, everything goes back to normal. It's frustrating when I need the keypad in the middle of a call, and can't use it.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated.
T-mobile- EnergyROM 6.5.x - Elegancia Theme for cht2.0, and Nordpolcampers softkeybar.
Thanks!
Strange I've never had this problem. Using Artemis ROM, try it if you can (see compatibility).
Appreciate the reply!!! Yeah, it's not a default in the phone because it's the second time it's happened, and each time with different HTC HD2's. Like I said, I tried uninstalling the apps/themes and nothing changed.
