Do you have your fingers or face near the proximity sensor in the upper left area of the phone (near the led). It's designed to turn the screen off when you hold it up to your ear.
I didn't know that...i usually have it down becuz i wear the headset

Hi my mogul has been randomly dieing on me lately, i would turn it on and call someone talk and hang up, then 2 minutes later i would try to turn it back on through the power button because it hibernates or something and it just wont let me, i would have to take out the battery and put it back in, i cant even press the reset button or anything. i dont understand! thank you in advance for any replys!
oh yea, i know the phone is on because i see the lights flashing, but when i try to call it rings but thats it, it doesnt even show up as a missing call when i take out the battery and put it back in.
Try to reflash your rom. Or maybe a replacement is necessary
Idk if this is the same as what happened to you but something like that happened to my phone. The buttons would light up and the screen would just turn a light black but wouldn't show anything. If it is, I sent it to HTC and they fixed it for me for free; when I got it back it slid easier too, it had gotten a little harder to slide after I dropped it once.
Nice to meet all the bro & sisters here.
Sorry if this question been repeated, I searched but not find anything related to this.
I am TYTN II user switched to HD2 just 2 days ago.
I have noticed one button with end call button + switch off/standby.
Whenever I am on the call wanted to turn off the screen the phone went off after pressed the standby button, sometimes the screen automatically turn off but when the phone is shaking the screen turn back on in my pocket.
Tried locking the screen but no outcome.
Hope someone can help me out with solutions.
thanks & merry christmas to everyone.

Hd2 has a proximity sensor which will automatically turn off / dim the screen when you are in a call.
Thank you for your reply.
Yes, but during walk the screen will keep turn off and on that will consume the battery life.

Also to the point, if the screen goes off during a call, how do I get it back on again (i.e. pressing the normal screen-on key ends the call)

It only does this when you are in a call. At other times, when you lock the phone, the screen stays off till you press the end-call button again.

You put the phone to your ear, and the screen goes off instantly.
You move it away from your ear and the screen comes back on instantly.
If it's not working like that then there's an issue somewhere, as that's what it's supposed to do, and it works perfectly for me and many others.
Do you guys with the problem have screen protectors on? I do, but mine doesn't interfere with the proximity sensor. I know that some can though, as reported by other users in this forum.
Sorry bros
My meaning is if using hand free kit & the phone kept in pant pocket, while moving on the road the phone sensor makes the screen goes on & off repeatly
didn't any one notice this point? Until I take out and hold it then stop blinking.
Hope it is clear now.
The sensor is just for phone when it is near the ear & away from the ear or on the table upside down.
Please help me thank you
I use a hands free set a lot, and just put the phone in the sleeve while in a conversation.
The proximity sensor then keeps the screen turned off.
Hi ofuroinu, there are lots of solutions :
You can install S2U2.
In power settings it has an option "Blank Screen on Talk" which automatically shuts off the screen when the call begins.
Or you can also install AEButtonPlus and associate the long press of send button (or another one ... yet it is not working for all the buttons) with the Switch on / switch off Screen command (number 32 in the list) to do it manually at will with a long key press.
I suppose you can also have a look at mortscript to find a script that toggle the screen, then associate the script to a shortcut that you can put in the home tab shortcuts.
Cheers,
Nibbler.

Silly question, but if the phone is in your pocket, how on Earth do you know that the screen is turning on and off?
THANK YOU TO ALL THE GOOD FRIENDS WHO HAVE REPLIED ME.
Maybe it is silly question to Jim Coleman, I am sorry.
I CAN SEE THE SOFT SCREEN LIGHT THRU MY PANT, BECOX IS QUITE THIN MATERIAL, AND OF COURSE ON THIS EARTH BROTHER.
ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU TO EVERYONE & MERRY CHRISTMAS & FRUITFUL NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.
When I'm on handsfree during a call and trying to access the phones menus or programs, the screen first lights up after pressing pwr button, stays on for about 0,5sec, then goes black, then flickers on again, then off, then on again, and then off!
Sometimes I manage to get it to stay on by pressing on the screen repeatedly during the first 0,5sec. But usually I go through that whole procedure and have to repeat it until I manage to access the phone.
Anyone experienced the same thing? Only happens during call.

Same thing here, I use a BT headset. It is quite annoying.. I think it is trying to shut down the screen, because of battery saving. But I want to use the phone while speaking
Could have to do with the proximity sensor maybe?
Yeah it is to do with the proximity sensor. To solve this issue I try not to hover my finger over the top of the phone where the speakers are located (I think this is where the proximity sensor is placed).

if u look at the phone in bright sunlight you can see the sensor
Sometimes I need to get to the keyboard but the screen goes dark during calls sometimes. I dont know why it does that or what i am doing to cause this. It doesnt happen every time. Anyone know or can help?

The proximity sensor is supposed to blank the screen during a call. Try making a call with your phone on the table. Put your finger along the top of the front of the phone (where the speaker grill-area is located). Your screen should blank. When you take your finger away, it should wake up. If it doesn't wake up, try pressing the Talk/Send hardware button to wake up the phone.
ok.. this erks the **** out of me!!!! say you dial someone, the screen goes blank, and i need to get back to dialer or desktop.. i shake, i press the power button, the screen comes on and RIGHT BACK OFF! over and over and over.... ........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how can i set the timeout time?? or after it comes back on..
this is happening because of the sensor that turns off the screen when you bring the phone up to your face. try bringing the phone down and not putting your fingers anywhere near the top left section of the phone where your see the "Htc" logo. as far as turning it off im not sure about that. hope i helped
i do have it away.. like i have it trying to access my contacts, texts to read back, etc.... or even if i dial and not meaning to dial someone.. trying to end a call.. etc.
I had this same problem with my old HTC Touch Pro 2 mine was a hardware problem that I couldn't fix and it eventually led to me to throwing the phone on the ground and switching back to my blackberry.
