Minor problem with the touchscreen - HD2 General

I've had the phone for about a month now and the most noticeable problem i have with the phone is that when I'm making a call the touch screen does not work (I can't press the keypad, speaker, end call, etc. buttons). I can get it to respond after tapping it multiples times but it is completely random. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It's becoming a huge hassle, because every other application and function works properly. Any ideas to what's causing it?

Did you apply decrease sensitivity tweak? if so undo it see what happens.

I have bsb tweaks and the screen screen sensitivity is already disabled. I'm probably going to take it into the store sometime this week to get it checked it. It doesn't make any sense to me that the only time that the screen doesn't respond properly is when making a call.

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).

Xperia, accidental screen touch

has anybody ever experienced this before?
while talking to the phone, your ear is pressed against the screen hence accidentally touching the screen with your ear and doing unwanted tasks
i have tried lowering light timer and;
pressing the on/off button once to turn off the screen
i find this a big problem for me, its an inconvinience, anybody has got any solutions for this?
thanks
use xperia tweak (use search function)
There is an option to urn screen off during calls
im using xperia tweak 2.0
all i see is
"disable screen turning off during calls" wouldnt this be the opposite of what u want?
I keep my screen on during calls and my cheek does not press any buttons, even when touching. Maybe your cheek bone or ear is too pointy?
lol actually its the clock button at the windows bar is being pressed on and it changed itself to analog/digital
Eh?
Standard behaviour is to switch the screen off during a call. So unless you changed it, why is your screen on? I wish this worked like y iphone and siwtched as you put it to your head, then screen goes back on when you pull it away during a call.
Same for me, my screen has never gone off while calling. Same by enabling and disabling the feature in Xperia Tweak.
I read somwhere that R2 changed that behaviour in opposition to R1..

agreed, even the nokia 5800 comes with the proximity sensor feature...
Just made a hard reset because of lots of beta software testing, I reinstalled only my very needed software, and the screen turns off like expected during the calls. I am in R2.
press the power to off the screen during calls.. best and free

SOLVED: Rejecting calls starts volume controls

Hi!
This is my first post here. I'm using an HTC Touch HD for three months, and before this I used an HTC Touch Cruise.
The problem is that, every time I reject an incoming call using the slider, volume controls appear in the device display, and volume is increased automatically by one point. It also happens sometimes when ending a call with the slider. If I reject or end calls with the right hard button, everything works fine.
I have installed AEButton plus and 'Touch In Call Screen Tweak', but I don't think it's got something to do with the problem.
Is this happening to someone else? Does someone know a fix for this?
Thanks.

i'd be willing to bet that the installed app is the cause of your problem. simply uninstall it, soft reset and see what happens.
Thanks for your help. It seems that AEButton plus is causing the problem. Uninstalling it made the fix. I'll try to modify the app settings, and see if I can keep it without these bugs.

Disable Hardware Buttons When Locked

I know this question has been asked already but has anybody yet found a way to disable to hardware buttons whilst the phone is locked to prevent accidently answering or rejecting an incoming call whilst removing the HD2 from your pocket or pouch?
I have tried various software, tweaks that i found whilst searching this site but cant get any of them to work
Had my HD2 since Tuesday and love it, just need to find a way to stop answering the phone when taking it out of the pouch!
This is very important thing and I hope someone will find a solution soon.........
hi
there are solutions, pokectshield and s2u
iosu
I too need this, I have tried the ones mentioned but they either dont work or they have their own slide ontop of the HTC slide, so 2 in effect.
Would be nice to have one that just disables the button!
S2u2 and pocket shield did not lock the volume buttons for me so when in pocket they were still pressed annoying me a lot when I listen to my tunes. Pressing any other button was bringing the screen back to lock so in other words no difference at all.

How is this done with S2U? I installed it and the buttons still worked.
My experience is that if anything the bigger slider caused more chance of it unlocking accidentally, if the phone moves and the screen rubs against your leg. Wasn't an issue with a resistive screen but mine was worse for 'unlocking itself' with S2U. So far it texted a nonsense sms to an ex and rang my mum all by itself - both dangerous!
I always put it in that way yo help protect the screen from being knocked accidentally.
There is a perfectly working solution for this here:

Simple and nice, install and soft reset and never worry about pressing the button while taking your phone out of the cover.

That application is for locking the hardward buttons when in a call, not when the phone is locked, or am I missing something?

I tried S2U2 also and having no problem disabling the call answer and call end buttons when there is incoming call.

It's quite the other way around. At least the cab I installed. Hardware buttons work in call, but when the phone is locked and there is an incoming call the buttons are locked (to prevent the accidental pressing).
Hence, not disabling anything you actually would like to use.
EDIT: This is what the description says:
"InCall Lock will temporarily disable Send (aka Talk, Green) and End (aka Red) hardware buttons when you receive an incoming call in order to prevent accidental call pickups/rejects while you are pulling your device out of your pocket. All other hardware buttons are untouched."
So the name can be obfuscating, but as the description says, the yes/no hardware buttons are disabled during an incoming call (prior to answering), but active during the actual call.

This thread is not about disabling buttons when there is an incoming call.
I can't believe there is not solution for this problem yet !

I don't know if I'm misinterpreting the question, but there is a solution for disabling the hardware keys to prevent accidental answer/reject of an incoming call which I've linked to earlier in this thread.
I have that solution installed right now, and when someone is calling I cant answer or reject by pressing the hardware buttons, I have to use the slider on the touch screen.

What I want is to prevent the keypad from waking up the device unless you press the power key.

No one here wants buttons to be disabled when call is incoming. We just want buttons to be disabled when you put device in to sleep.
Go on test it. Put music on in music tab or WM player or any other with your headphones or without. Press red button to put device in to sleep mode (use manual lock if you have disabled auto lock). Press volume buttons and see what happens.
If you have s2u2 or pocket shield or nothing effect is the same.

I'm sorry but I can't agree with you. The thread clearly states in the first post
"has anybody yet found a way to disable to hardware buttons whilst the phone is locked to prevent accidently answering or rejecting an incoming call whilst removing the HD2 from your pocket or pouch?"
The answer to this is yes, and I've linked to the solution previously.

Sorry buddy but you're quite wrong. That's EXACTLY what I want and apologies if I wasn't crystal clear in describing it - I may not have been since I also want the same as you.
Umiss - I'm going to go and check out that cab you mentioned because if that really works then brilliant!!!!

so how do you want to answer a call with this cab installed and enabled?
i also would like to prevent unwanted presses....but i do want to reject or accept a call on some way, without mispressing a button.
When a call comes in the screen is enabled so I just slide to answer or reject. It won't happen by accident in all likeliness, and removes the huge annoyance of the hardware buttons being accidentally pressed. It's the one thing that majorly pisses me off about this awesome phone.
If they wanted to, they could simply do a cab file that disables them perhaps when the proximity sensor detects the face of the phone is against something. That would be good too, unless I'm not considering some factor.
Hmmm, I've just installed that app and it seems to only partly work.
The reject call button locks perfectly but the answer button does not lock so it can still be pressed. I also managed to press the home button and get to the Sense screen once, but when I tried this a second time it didn't do it, so I think it might be a bit buggy.
A definite step in the right direction though, at least I now have fewer buttons that can be pressed accidentally!

Touch screen stops working during calls

when i am in a call and phone is not on my face i can not use the touch screen like press speaker, menu, mute ect. but if i do a soft reset on it then it works for a few min. then stops again. any fixes?
Have you lowered the touchscreen sensitivity either by registry tweaks, BsB Tweaks, HD Tweaks, etc.? If so, one of the known errors is that the active call screen will stop working and you have to use the hardware keys.
Did you happen to perform this tweak?
44. Prevent Accidental Link Activation When Scrolling
Do you scroll and find you accidentally click on something? This tweak is for you.
HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/Minimumtaptime
Change from 0 to 30​
If you did, that's the problem, it breaks the phone app and makes all the buttons non-responsive while you are on a call.
Just change HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/Minimumtaptime back to 0 and the buttons will magically start working again.
Actually, the buttons do work, you just have to poke it "harder" and longer. I would touch and rub my finger over the end-key a couple-times and then it works. It's probably a result of the decreased sensitivity hack.
yes i did do that mod. but i changed it back and it seems to be ok now. thanks for the help
while we are on the subject does anyone know how to move the unlock slider to bottom and clock to top on today screen?
I thought it is a function of WM6.5 to disable touch-button during call to prevent accidently touching them with your face
if you want to use those button just slide along the length of that button and it will work just fine (work for me). And after you active any button by that way, all touch button will work as normal.
(sorry but english is not my native )
