Gents,
Here is a little thing bothering me.
I use a BT headset most of the time, keeping the phone in a pocket/backpack while playing music.
The thing is that when receiving a call and answering it using the BT Headset buttons, the phone still wakes up and unlocks itself. Meaning that the device is now accessible by the touch panel but in my pocket/backpack thus messing with it.
Is there way to prevent that ?
So when answering to a call from a BT headset the device remains locked.
Thanks for any help on that.
David.
Anybody with that same problem ?
David on HD2
Hi there David,
I have had the same issue with my HTC HD2 for the past 6 months since I bought the phone and have not seen anyone come up with a resolution for this!
Even the Iphone handles this simple problem better.
I cannot understand how they can release a fantastic phone like the HTC HD2 that can just about replace a computer but can not do the simple job of not unlocking the handset when controlled with a bluetooth device.
I can only hope that there is a programmer out there that could tweek the registry to solve out problem.
Thanks Ace
Exactly. I feel the same way too. But just have to live with it I guess, just leave it and wait for the auto lock to kick in again
So I guess it is a wellknow problem with no solution or work around... at least we know.
Not pleasant to live with... having to stop on the side of the road because a call kick in while riding in the hot tropical summer.
David BT HD2 ironhorsing in Taiwan.
there is a solution, it's called s2u2. It has settings to set it to lock on call when using BT.

you want the wvga version.
Finaly hope arise... I am trying it right away.
Thank you very much for that.
Confirmed! It works!
Thank you very much nrfitchett4 .
And it gives some more life to the standby/locked screen.
Although one might want to change the default wallpapers...
The only little inconvenience of this app is that you have to re-start it after a soft reset. But it is worth it.

what do you mean?
You shouldn't have to restart it after reset, just lock your phone. You can set it to lock on screen off, or screen on, or manually.
nrfitchett4 you are right... my bad... Sorry for the misunderstanding.
The app is still working after a reset.

very good. Seems to be the only lockscreen that doesn't cause occ. lockups on energy roms.
Cant confirm that.
I use the original ROM from HTC that came with the device.

Hi
I am using the JasJam WWE ROM. The screen is bright but not fully. When I switch to camera, for 1/2 a second the screen is fully iluminated and very bright. Than I lose it again. Does it happen with other ROMs? Can this be changed to get a full ilumination? I live in a very sunny country and it is sometimes really annoying.
I noticed this on the HTC ROM...i am running the imate ROM now and the same thing. I figured it was that if you ran with the screen on UBER bright like on camera you may drain the battery BIG TIME.
You can try Vijay's VJLumosII:
http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJLumosII
Most probably it will work on TyTN too, but I haven't tried it.
Well this software actually works but I have to start it manually every time. It makes no sense. Therefore I added it to the Startup folder but that is not good as it is not letting the camera to start saying that "camera is already running". Any idea?
In VJLumosII web page:
Use -off to disable it (eg before starting the camera)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And I think you don't need to place it in startup manually, also from the webpage:
VJLumos II can install a notifcation event, so that every time you switch on the Phone, you will automatically get SuperBrite.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
VJLumos II was written for the Magician, for which it works great.
It has been tested on the Universal, but briefly, and it superbrites the screen, but unfortunately you can only do it once (I think).
It does, kinda, work on the Hermes, will make the screen brighter (so I hear). However, the Hermes has the same problem, and I haven't had a chance to fix it, because I never used the Universal long term, and don't have Hermes, sniff.
But I'll fix it. Even-shwally.

I’m suffering from the same problem with my i-mate JasJam,
The screen is not bright enough.
I check the VJLumos II solution and it works fine, except the OFF button that does not response on my devise
And due to that I have to SR the device in order to use the camera.
However it is the only solution that I have at this moment.
More ideas ?
Maybe someone have a “secret” and smart CAB file that can fix this issue ones and for all (-:
Thanks everybody
Ori
vijay, this sounds like a challenge for you... I guess that what we need is a full brihtness mode without harming the camera. Sorry, mate but I can't give you my own Hermes as I live far a way.
ideas ?
someone ?
:roll:
nobody have this problem that the screen is not bright enough ???

Guys, I've released VJLumos III for the Hermes, in the development and hacking thread.
Early release, but I've been using it all day and works fine.
MUCH brighter!

Never had that problem. Sounds like its time for a new phone. When you go down there tell them to stop bullshitin and throw some really power in the wing. Godd Luck

I suggest you call T-mobile if your Phone is still under the 1 year warranty. They will send you a new phone if so. If not, I havent experienced that problem either.
my phone was doing that before i flashed it with Touch it and it hasn't since.

LOL. Dont smash it. Sell it on craigslist.
are you using any overclocking program on your phone (batterystatus, omapclock)...it could be some sort of settings with overclock on wakeup or something of that sort...try turning all of the programs off and see if it still has the same problems...
yeaa am using the overclocking program!!! could be doing that because it never did it before....ill disable it and see what happens
That's happened to me before actually now that I think about it.
What rom are you using? If I were you I'd do a hard reset or install a newer rom version.
am using the regular tmobile ROM...am guessing u want me to get touch it rite..
Download this, it's the Stock Tmobile RUU. It will restore your Wing to the original factory T-mobile Rom/Settings.
http://www.mediafire.com/?2nq9iu0a2nt
See if that maybe fixes the problem. Don't forget to back up your contacts and anything else you want to save.
Just connect your phone to activesync, then run the file.
isnt that the same thing as hard reset????
I say download a cooked rom. It was alil nerve racking for me at first, but after reading the same pages for a few weeks I finally felt confident that I could do it without brinking it. PLus with everyone here, I knew help wouldnt be to far away. And I cant tell you how nice it is to have all that freed up memory. If you need any help feel free to msg, Im not even close to as knowledgeable as the other guys here but Ill be glad to give as much help as I can.

You will lose any tweaks and installs you have done since you first unboxed the phone, yes.
Maybe it's just worth trying to change the keyboard language?
You know, there's a keyboard icon in the centre at the bottom of the screen when you are typing something?
There is also a small arrow near that icon. If you click that, it has to show you some options, among which is the option to change the input settings.
(At least it is so on a UK ROM)
Hope it helps

Okay Guys..... Rather than start a New Topic on my problem I found this topic which is titled correctly.
I have a horrendous problem with the keyboard every now and then failing to load that has only started today.
After I have used the Keyboard for whatever reason at that particular time I then put the Phone back into sleep mode.
Later, when I switch the Phone back on and again need to use the Keyboard I press the Keyboard symbol at the foot of the screen but it fails to load the Keyboard and thus you can not enter any text.
The only way to use the Keyboard is to then perform a Soft-Reset and then it works...... until later when we have to repeat the whole affair.....
It does not happen all the time but as an example I have used the Keyboard today on 6 separate occasions.
These occasions are when the machine has been put to sleep, woken and the Keyboard to be loaded.
Anyway, of these 6 separate occasions it has failed to load 4 times.
That means I have had to carry out a Soft-Reset 4 times today.
I have not installed anything since the problem started today and am at a loss why it is playing up in this manner.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

What can I do to fix this? Restarting the phone always fixes it (although that's not really a "solution" per se), sometimes restarting the phone app fixes it. Sometimes the keypad is there, but is up and to the right (off the edge of the screen, covering the leftmost side of the list of calls).
i think i had the same problem. try changing to landscape and back to normal.

My phone dialer doesn't rotate...
Yes, annoying this. I got the problem the other day then things went back to normal after a soft boot. I am aware that rotating the app does fix the problem (until the next time) but have never tried it.
To get your phone app to rotate, install BSB Tweaks. Once done select the phone app as an item to be rotated which should give you what you are looking for.

Thanks, this fixed it!
Wondering if there's been a better solution uncovered to this than "rotate the phone". That's not very fluid since the phone tends to rotate/unrotate in call and the keypad disappears again, making using menu options in voicemail (for example) much more of a pain than it needs to be.
Don't even understand how this is a problem, given that my TP2 had the same dialler and had no problems...
Bump ...
No chance for a response here...?

BTW, the dialpad issue has been fixed for at least two months now - there's a dll or a cab floating around somewhere

Would really like to find these...searching the forums yields nothing...
Still hoping for a reply...
Try overwriting the dll posted by fards with total commander or resco. Using wm 6.5 myself so haven.t tested.

Looks cool. People may not try it out though because it's not free, though it does have a demo. I'll give it a try.
*edit*
i've been playing around with this for about an hour now. I like it. damn I might even buy it after the 10 day trial.
Be careful with Pocket Shield.
There is an issue:
If you uninstall the application, you will lost the HTC dialer and get the ugly Wimo dialer.
There is no solution unless doing a hard reset !

Hey who told you that? You just need to change the dialer at PocketShield settings --> Phone tab --> Protect touch screen --> + --> Use standard dialer.
No need to hardreset!
I can also recommend Pocketshield. In fact I have made some skins for it, this is my latest and coolest: http://jdbp.mobi/phorum/read.php?6,10101 and I am so happy they chose it to be the default skin after installing
So after trying it for a few days I uninstalled it. It's nice & all, but I don't like my lockscreen being enabled any time i turn off the display on my HD2. If they'd implement it so that it'd only every be enabled when I press the shield quicklink, I'd probably buy it. I do see in the registry that they disable the lockscreen from being on auto, so I'm guessing it's just part of the program.
I'll stick with the lockscreen in CHT.
