[Solved]Backlight Slider Disappeared. - HD2 General

Can anyone help me with this problem... The Backlight Adjustment slider for on external power, in settings, has disappeared and I don;t know why. It was there last night, and this morning I put the HD2 in the docking cradle and the screen went darker, so I looked in the settings and noticed the slider had disappeared, this has happened once before, but it came back after installing a new ROM.
I have just installed a new ROM "Dutty's Leo Multi-Lang V2" yesterday afternoon and the slider was there after flashing the ROM and last night, Any ideas please...

U should try pressing the "Hangup" button until you can select "Lock Phone" (or similar, as i have dutch version). Now this unlock slider will re-appear.
Regards
Patrick

I was not on about the unlock slider, I was talking about the adjustment slider in settings for the backlight, see image...

Did you scroll to the bottom of that page? It isn't visible on the initial screen.

In the registry, HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\
Set ACBrightNess and BrightNess to 5.
Some program most likely messed with it and brought it out of the 1-10 valid range.

Hi kilrah. Thanks for the regedit, that has fixed it, thanks for your help.
I don't know what it was that messed it up, could docking it into my cradle cause it, I have a new cradle that has audio out which has a phono plug that goes into the headphone scoket when you dock it into the cradle and I have a mini speaker attached to the cradle? Thanks again

"Device Lock" to Softkey or Hardkey?

Hi!
Is it possible to get this today-plugin mapped to a soft- or hardkey? If not, does a similar app exists to unlock the device with 2 keystrokes?
???
There are a couple of apps out there that will lock the screen. ScreenLock is one of them - it requires you to press two buttons at once. Another is MortSaver. Just do a search on the usual PPC software sites for "lock".

Place the device lock Plug in at the top of your "Today" screen (must disable Date plugin). When you are in today screen, you can scroll (arrow down) one click and then click on the action button to lock device.

Genius lateral thinking. I like that. Well Done
Two new tools were released the last few days, the both use the built-in device lock. Have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45953
and here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45851
Haven't yet figured out if I can also unlock without pulling out the stylus. Anyone know?

you can, but the plugin was designed for devices that have a full phone pad available when the screen is (e.g. smartphones, mostly); it uses the * key. You can use the same key on the wizard, but of course you have to slide out the keyboard for that
hehe, I already tried that and it's "a bit" inconvenient (considering that i also have to press the "blue dot" key to get the *)
But thanks for replying

THIS ONE works perfect!
http://www.mr2-power.com/downloads/DeviceLock.CAB
Just install it. Map it to a hardwarekey and there you go. I have it running on my MDA Vario and it works just perfect. One button push and the device is locked. You can even change settings ( just go to settings/system and you will see a new icon - Device Lock - )
Super little helper! This is a (IMHO) must-have-tool

you are correct in that this tool is great ! How do I map it to a key though...
1. Start > Settings > |Personal| > Buttons
2. Select a button from the list
3. Under "Assign a program:" pick "Device Lock"
done
I came across a problem when I try to uninstall the program. After a successful unintall, I simply soft resetted my device. When the deviced booted back up, I received an error message stating that it failed to start the Device Lock program and showed the path where it used to be installed.
I looked at all the locaitons where it might have left a trail but at the end, the error message would constantly show up and slow my device down.
I had to hard reset the device. Why does it do that ?
The program may have left a notification in the notification queue. Speak to Matt to check if the program removes this on uninstallation, or remove it manually with Memaid or SKTools.
My app can remove its own notification with the -remove command line.
But you should remove the notification before uninstallation to prevent the message.

Device Lock for Touch HD?

Is there a working version for a Device Lock for my beloved HD? I want my HD to be locked when a notification pops up or a phone call comes in. Actually its unlocked after a call or notification.....

try S2u2.
Do a search - there are a few similar discussions!
i like the pocket shield on my touch hd -> http://pocketshield.netserver01.com/
I´ve tried S2U2 on my Wizard with some strange problems like Battery drain etc. Pocketshield works so far, but i loved the simplyness of DeviceLock.
Isn´t there any way to lock the device on wake up? Pocketshield shouldn´t be the last fix for this problem....
PocketShield is the best for the HD.

I´ve tryed aout Phoneshield, but i wasn´t that surprised of it. Now i´ve tryed This:
Goto registry:
HKEY_CurrentUser\ControlPanel\Backlight\[AutoDeviceLockEnable set to 1]
HKEY_CurrentUser\ControlPanel\Backlight\LockLevel\[LockLevel set to 1]
That works for me without installing any Software

I would to know one thing, I see two different key to lock the phone:
AutoDeviceLockEnable
LockLevel
why? isn't enough only one of them? for example backlight lockenable?
pls explain to me what exactly these 2 keys so
quick question :
which registry entry governs the backlight display on the lock screen,
at the moment i've got the phone dimming after 30 seconds, then it locks and the light comes back on. for about 30 seconds. ideal the lock screen would be illuminated for about 10 seconds then blank the screen.
What reg entries do i need to set to sort this out ?
answers appreciated.
many thanks.

am I missing a trick here, doesn't pressing the 'end call' button lock your phone with out the need to install extra software ????

by default yes, but you can amend the function of the long key press if you like via the buttons menu in further options.
i've got mine killing off connections data/phone, for example with the power button at the top locking the phone.
works for me.
Hi!
I'm still struggeling to find the right way to lock the phone. The ideal solution would be to:
1) Have the phone unlocked when I switch it on with the Power button (so that I can immediately use it after deliberately turning it on)
2) Have the phone automatically locked when it wakes up due to a phone call or SMS (so that I don't press anything by accident when it is in my pocket).
This seems to be the only really logical way to use device lock. Can this be done?
Regards!
But PocketShield doesn not meet my requirements (see above post). It's just another regular device lock app without the possibility to disable the device lock when the unit is turned on with the power button.
Regards!
I found the Registry-Hack Solution is the better way, just my opinion. But can somebody tell me which reg-value must be edited to avoid locking with end-call button? I don´t want to lock my device in this way, i want to end Data connections with long pressed end-key.
easy
1) scroll along to settings
2) hit 'all settings'
3) select 'personal' tab
4) select 'buttons' icon (top left)
5) get your stylus out
6) on the buttons screen, hit the arrow on the bottom right until you can see the "end key" section. hit that.
7) in the options listed, select "automatically execute selected action" and underneath this select " terminate data connection"
8) hit the OK button (top right) and bob your dads brother, you can now terminate data calls via the long press call cancel key.
nice one.
Thx for that.....

Bug in official WM6.5?

Anyone noticed that while weather is in automatic update, and you press the "activitymanager" on the far right top to see what programs are running etc, the today screen freezes. The weather effects stop and the clock will jump back an hour or something and then back again once you leave the "activitymanager" and go back to today screen. Same thing when you press and hold the endcall button to turn keylock on, the weather effects+clock will go wild just before it goes into lock mode. Anyone else seen this??

It's like this even if you don't have automatic weather-update. The 'error' with the clock jump 61 minutes back in time is normal in Sense. Try to click the endcall-button in homescreen - the clock flips and the weather-effect resets

I initially found this problem. You need to go into settings - sounds and notifications - advanced: scroll down to text messages and check the box to sound event.
Another bug (?) I found is that when you have your headset connect and get an incomming call the ringtone only sounds in the headset. So if you have your phone in the pocket you miss the call.
Anyone else with the same irritating problem?
I have the same touchflo-freeze-when-taskman-is-open - bug.
But ... for some reason I like windows' default new todayscreen more then touchflo! It seems way more to the point.
problem with clock / battery icon on taskbar
With WM 6.5, when I check "see clock on all programs" in clock and alarms I see clock on taskbar all the time (home screen). With WM 6.1, it was displayed the battery icon in home screen and the clock only in programs... Anybody knows how change it in WM 6.5? What registry I must change?
Thanks
manila start menu
anyone had any luck with mapping the start button to the manila programs tab on the touchflo.
Are the ppl at HTC aware of these issues or are they Microsoft-related? Has anyone reported the bugs to HTC? Any response?
Its just incredible that they release a ROM where there are so many bugs. They have to be aware of these, I cant believe that they dont...
I found a very strange "bug" ... I guess:
I can't touch the volume keys in sence... up or down key will result in a "services.exe" error and the phone gets really slow.
Anyone???

Yes, I use the excellent TopazKbdControl which can be found in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4722478&postcount=2.
You need to remap the Windows key (or HOME key as it's called) so that on the Click event it performs the action "Run program". Set the program to run as "\Windows\manila.exe", and the arguments as "--switchtopage programs.page" (both without quotes). Works perfectly, no more horrible Windows Start page!

What happened to my lockscreen?

I was adjusting my e-mail settings when the phone frooze. Had to remove battery to restart.
But after that I got stuck with this lockscreen.
Softreset didden't work. Tryed to switch between windows standard and windows classic lockscreen but nothing.
How do I get "The Slider" back?
(I have no lockscreen mods installed)

Go to the settings tab, Menu, All Settings, Lock and go to the Display tab. Make sure you've got Windows Default selected, not Windows Classic. Click OK and it'll ask you to restard. You should now have the lockscreen you want back.
Hope this helps
Edit:
Sorry - I just noticed your device isn't in English. I hope you can translate my instruction on your device okay.
Sorry, I guess "Standard Windows" is Swedish for "Default Windows" so i have already tryed that.
I have also tryed it with HTC sense off but still no change.
Still in need of help!

when i sekect lock from all settings, theres only setting password and hint. nothing else. my lockscreen wont automatic lock wen my screen is off.
I found that after a soft reset my Lock screen would not appear after the phone had gone to sleep (or I'd turned the screen off manually).
I solve it by .......
After a soft re-set or having turned the phone off;
go to Start
press 'Lock' at the bottom left of the screen
The lock screen now appears and then acts normally - until the next soft reset when I simply repeat the above
Nop!
Allready tryed that, still the grey lockscreen...

Lost Screen lock
Here is the one simple solution that works for me:
When I installed some cab. files I have lost the screen lock.
Longpress the end/power button. this will bring out options to power off, Lock device, set vibrate...
Simply press "Lock device".
Now you have a screen lock that keeps working.
Well I've tryed that but It will still use that grey thing...
//Johan
Some people don't really read that well, do they?
argh
i have to always manually set the lock device. it wont automatically do it.
i recently installed pocketshield and that messed it up so i dont think everyone deleted properly?
should i use SKTools or a software to delete unused registries? or is it cab files?
YEEEES!
I figured somehow the default windows lockscreen file must have got corrupted...?
So I installed this cab:

still didnt work. just still acting the same.
i have the same problem after i have installed puremind's 1cab4all_20shcutsv1.3No.Net3.5.
i tried the above suggestion but didnt work, i have to put the lock device to make it work, but i dont want to enter the password everytime to go to homescreen.
Anyone have the same problem?
1. This happens a few times on my HD2, make sure you have BSB Tweak installed. There is an AutoLock switch on there. Make sure that is set to On (which it will be default).
2. Then on the odd occasion when the device does not lock, hold the power button to get the Quick List and click Lock Device, now it will be ok - till the next time it happens (mine usually after a few days in which case repeat step 2).

lock screen missing

hi all...
the lock screen on my hd2 has gone missing... pressing the red button directly brings me into the sense UI... any suggestions what went wrong?
thanks!
any help with above issue pls?
Have you recently installed then uninstalled a custom lockscreen? Look at my sticky (link in my sig) and towards the bottom of the first post you'll see some attached cabs. download the one that says Lockscreen HD2 original then install it. It should bring you back to normal.

Thanks for your input!
** Also, to answer your question, no i have not installed or uninstalled any custom lockscreen..

Thanks for the link - it kind of helped, which is to say - when i go to start menu and tap on "lock" it does lock the screen but after unlocking it when i press the red button to shut the display and again press it the lockscreen doesnt come up.. i'd hate to click twice before I press the red button only to make sure it doesnt come to life and call my aunt while in my pocket :-/
I tried reinstalling the cab from your sticky to the device (coz I wasnt sure where i had installed it previously) but the problem persists and No I havent installed any BSB or any other tweaks (atleast not intentionally)
So when you go to start , etc, then lock, after you unlock it you're presented with the lock screen Options. Are those set accordingly? Once set, it'll ask you to save changes, then click ok in top right corner.

-but if i slide the lock on the lockscreen to reveal the sense UI, close the device and then switch it on again, it doesnt show me the lockscreen

No I dont. I dont have any of those installed. I want to install the cookies but havent installed any mods yet. The only things I've installed on there are apps.
One of them being Resco Explorer which has a Task manager with it. Could that have made my screen disappear?

Once you go to the start menu, select SETTINGS. Then tap the MENU soft key in the bottom right and select ALL SETTINGS. You should see LOCK in the top-right. Tap it, this locks your screen. Immediately unlock. You are now at the LOCKSCREEN OPTIONS page. Set accordingly. Save. Tap OK in top right. Done. Drink a beer.

I already tried this before.. Tapping on the Lock icon in the "ALL SETTINGS" does not lock the screen. Instead, it directly takes me to the password screen (maybe what you referred to as lockscreen options) where my first choice is a checkbox for "Prompt if phone unused for ___ mins and the other option is to choose a password.
Yeah that's the stuff. That's where you enable it. Check the box, set the password (pin).
Sorry for not realizing you had been there. If setting and saving those options doesn't work, not sure what to tell you.
Are you connected to an exchange server?
(you have to make sure after you hit the obvious SAVE button that pops up, you have to hit the OK button in the top right the screen.)
