hello.
this is enoying... and it happend twice in one call.
i have hd2, with Phonex for full screen caller. i've activated the black screen in call option but... i guess i chage the phones angle alot because twice it went into the connectivity manager and pressed the flight mode, which owfuly disconnected my call.
i guess i nedd something to hide the task bar/system tray (still not sure how it's referd to). or maybe atleast cancel the flight mode abillity.
even when in a call and it goes to the taskbar notiffication menu it's ennoying as hell cause i can't control the call and i need to press the call itself and only then get to the call controls.
thanks for anyhelp...

Quote this FAQ from myxda.com :
Q. Is it possible to activate the loudspeaker on my xda before choosing a telephone number? Is it possible to permanently turn the loudspeaker on loud, so i do not have to press the green button?
A. There is a way for doing this. The only disadvantage: after a soft-reset this setting is not activated anymore and must be readjusted. Dial any number, for example the Voicemail Box, so that nobody is disturbed by a phone call. Then disconnect and tip onto the signal symbol in the title bar. Tip onto the disconnect telephone button and then immediately press the green button (accept telephone call) keeping it pressed until the note appears: The loudspeaker is activated. The telephone then disconnects, without establishing a connection. The information that the loudspeaker is activated remains. The next step is turning on the telephone. The loudspeaker is turned on instantly with each dialled number. However, you can always turn the loudspeaker on or off by pressing the green button a little longer BEFORE dialling.
I've tried it and there is no response, even I can not get first step (Tip on the disconnect button ). May be this FAQ is only for XDA I ...
Has anybody tried it on an XDA II ?
Has anybody a way to permanently activate loudspeaker on XDA II ?
Yes, I've tried it, it works.
But sometimes could be difficult to activate due to some lag or slow response time for taps ... Once activated, the screen will look like this:
Can yo please explain it step by step ?
I've tried a lot of times, withou results. Thanks
ok, i found this easier:
- Turn on flight mode.
- Press green button for a few seconds until it says "Speakerphone is on". (Don't worry, as you're on flight mode, no call is made)
- Now, turn off flight mode to use the phone and have the speakerphone always on.
Enjoy.
No way !!
Turn On fligth mode.
--Press green Button while in TODAY opens Phone Screen
---Press green button while in PHONE screen shows Buuble "The phone is currently off. Dou you want to turn Wireless on?
I have ROM 1.60.00 WWE
-- Radio Version 1.10.00
You'll have to PRESS DOWN AND HOLD the green button for about 2 seconds. Not just one click.
Of course I did it
Have you been able to activate speakerphone during a call before?
The procedure is the same, press and hold down the Green button should activate, except that this is done when flightmode is on.
It's strange why your unit doesn't behave the same? Try hold down longer perhaps..
@chriswo
sorry for OT, but PLEEEEASSSE let me know the name of that software you're using for the today screen. i've been desperately looking for something like this for ages now.
thanks
regards ize|man
if you mean
chriswo's screenshot
then do you mean the signal strength
or ?
if you're talking about the launcher, it's called cLaunch, it's free.
Yes I can activate it during a call, and as I like it (it works 'sufficient' for me as a hands free for the car) is because I wanted to have it always activated.
May be there is some installed software. Will try to uninstall what is not essential. Can you post your rom & radio versions ?
boyz boyz you're fast as lightning
i just updated the screenshot. pls reload this page.
and YES it's cLaunch i just googled and it seems to be what i need (BIG buttons on the today screen)
thanks a lot
regards ize|man
Alrught, if you find it difficult to activate Speakerphone while on flight mode. try this:
On PHONE display, turn on flight mode and immediately PRESS AND HOLD DOWN the green button. Don't let it go completely on flight mode, so you got to do it while the radio was shutting down.
try that and let us know.
OK, this one WORKED without problem.
Now I have a 'perfect' and 'cheap' handsfree for my car.
THANK YOU very much !!!
Chriswo?
Where did you get that signalstrenght today plug in from ? looks really good
That's HudsonMobile PhoneDashboard.
Anyone notice if you cancel the speakerphone, then enable your bluetooth headset and make a call, the headset stays connected even after you end the call?
I don't know if this really is an advantage or not, I'll see how much more the battery drains if any.
Also, I notice that after activating the speakerphone "always-on", my ringetone gets almost silent. :?
Is there a way to lock down the touchscreen during a call? A lot of times when I am done with a call there are numerous applications that have been opened with my cheek.
Thanks
Try phonealarm it can turn off screen
I think you can actually just press the standby button once you're in the call, and it doesn't affect the call, just switches the screen off.
Perhaps I am a blockhead but I do not see a standby button.
Standby button = power button
It works - just press the power button after you start the call, then it locks down all the keys for you.
Both the standby button and PhoneAlarm work to blank off the screen. The problem is when the screen is blanked off or in other words the PDA is switched off the call timer stops recording the call duration. For example make an outgoing call and blank off the screen and when you have finished the call check your call history. The outgoing call length will show only the duration it took you to blank off the screen. This can be a problem if you are keeping a record of your outgoing calls for billing purposes.

Not on mine! I can hit standby to run the screen off, then simply hit it again to turn the screen back on to see how long the current call has taken.
But even if your's doesn't offer that option, WM6's call history is seriously beefed up - with the option to review individual call details, and to delete individual calls.
The standby button works great, thanks. As to paying for an application like phonealarm for this, I was about to borrow a line from caddy shack:
"I ain't payin no fifty cents for no coke"

I've found that it all depends:
1) You put it in standby when it's ticking already and another patry ends a call - you get only the time between start call and going to standby.
2) You put it in standby when it's ticking already and YOU end a call by pressing the red hangup button - you get the real call duration.
3) You put it in standby before it starts ticking and another patry ends a call - you get zero duration.
4) You put it in standby before it starts ticking and YOU end a call by pressing the red hangup button - you get zero duration.
5) If you turn the screen on during a call for some reason and then turn it off again - you get the time when you turn off the sceen for a second time if the other patry ends a call, or you get the real one if YOU end a call with a red button.
comments anyone?
I'd like to find a solution to turn off the screen during a call but be able to see the real call duration.
Hi,
I faced this problem too often, so I ask on this forum to know if it only happens to me:
when I end the call, telephone programs stucks. In the top bar, the indication of an on going call is still there. Everything is working except telephone application. I can't open the telephone options. Even if I turn on Airplane mode, the phone logo in the top bar remains.
Any idea?
I had that problem once. Did it occur when you dialed a number not in your phone book? It turned out the prompt for saving a new dialed number was still there but I somehow couldn't access it. Perhaps turn that setting off?
no, it was an outgoing call to someone in my phonebook. (at least in my last problem)
facing the same problem. after ending a call the phone app freeze a couple of minutes and sometimes more than ten minutes
Did you installed the HTC patch to avoid the freeze ?
I didn't.
Could it be usefull there ?
This is really annoying if you have to wait 10mn before doing an another call !
Problem happened again
The problem happened again yesterday.
But worse. I was leaving a message on an answering machine. and I couldn't end the call !
Pressing the right key (end call) had no effect !
Usually in my previous problems, the other user was ending the call.
So I had to switch off the phone in comm manager !
I'm surprised that no one else faced this problem !
I tried to follow one's advice to wait then until phone gets back to normal. (release the phone icon in the top bar).
After one hour, I finaly rebooted the phone to be able to do an outgoing call.
Help !
Phone blocks during or after a call
Hello guys and girls
I had the same problem last week, a couple of times in a row, I was on the phone with a contact, after a couple of minutes I couldn't hear anything anymore and tried to end the call but no joy, a soft reset did the thing the first time, the second I waited a couple of minutes wich worked aswell. It was very annoying I must say especially as it happened 4 times in a row...
Hoping for a solution

It seems a bug. You can press volume up/down buttons on the device itself to open the volume bar screen. After that just press somewhere on the grey area to go back to home screen. The top bar will restore from the phone application.
It's not the top bar. The phone application is completely unavailable.
We see the top bar,but the phone icon is stuck. Like if we were still on call.
I too have a similar problem.
Although I haven't particularly logged the prolems, I think that it only happens on incoming calls, and not outgoing ones.
During a phone call, the incoming sound just goes mute, and afterwards I can't hang up the call.
I reckon I have lost well over half the calls I have received because of this.
Luckily, not many people call me!!
I reckon this is a CRAP phone, and am seriously thinking of getting a REAL phone, and just using the HD as a PDA device. Good old HTC!!!!!!
I edited the title of this topic.
The phone app is really stucked : I called an answering machine, I wasn't able to end the call !
Help !
I am thinking of changing ROM.
I have somehow managed to ring somebody whilst on a call to O2, basically I had to activate my screen to choose the number options. Once I got through to someone my ear must have touched one of the people in the recent call list and rang them.
Is there a way to disable the phone from doing this?
Thanks
Sully
You could press the power button as soon as you start to call someone - that will turn off the screen.
I think there might be something called 'quicksleep' that you can activate with one of the tweak HD programs. I have a feeling this puts the phone to sleep automatically when you start a call, to save you ear-calling someone.
you could try pocket shield www.pocketshield.net
Has the option to lock screen on call conect. Also has other nice features for locking and unlocking device by shaking, light, etc....
will give pocketshield a try.
thanks
I allow phone calls when in Do Not Disturb mode. When I get a call, the normal phone screen does not pop up as it always did with any other Android phone I have had (including the S7).. Now I have to long press the home key and then swipe up on my phone icon in order to answer the call. This is ridiculous as it is hard to do when my phone rings at 2 AM (my job requires 24 hour phone calls). Is anyone else having this issue or is it just a bug on my phone?
