Dear all,
I want to reactivate the In Call Phone Slide Cover in my Artemis8 rom (WM6.5.x).
Up to know I tried HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\EnableSliderCall=1, which does not help. I also got BSB where I activated the PhoneSlideCover.
I guess that it is not included by default in the cooked Rom and I could immagine that I would need to modify the registy at HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\Cover\UntouchableRect....=.... to get it back.
It drives me crazy that almost every time I got a mail/alert during a call and the touchscreen gets on despite the proximity sensor, there will be an erroneous input.
Can anybody help me? The issue has been posted by other users in the past, but always abandonded without solution.
Kind regards

Hey there guys,
Got an irritating problem with Phone Pad which I need help with.
Im using the one from the FTP site: PhonePad_Magician_Generic_WWE_RC12.CAB
Here's my problem.
I cant use it, its that simple :lol: If I have the keyboard up and want to switch to the PhonePad it may do one out of two things.
1. Nothing. The keyb. remains, still usable
2. It switches to half the phone pad, parts of it displays but is not usable. Neither can I switch back to the keyb. A soft reset is needed.
I have the latest Qtek ROM, with BS of course I had this problem before I applied BS as well. I have lots of memory left so that shouldnt be the issue...hopefully.
Anyone experienced this problem as well and have a solution for it?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
I tried seaching through different threads, but couldn't find the same topic, so please forgive me if I indeed am repeating an already listed thread...
I'm extremly happy with my TyTn, but one thing which is DRIVING ME ABSOLUTELY NUTTS AND UP THE WALL, is the so called "lazy keys" on it's qwerty pad. Sometimes is doesn't respond and other times it doubles/triples the letter..
Are any of you having the same problem and do any of you have a solution to this?..
Any helpful answers would be highly appreciated!..

I am having the same issues. CAN ANYONE HELP WITH THIS?
I have got the same problem but have learnt to live with it but a fix would be great.
mine does it too but i think it's a memory problem. when i begin typing it will not show anything for a few seconds and then BAM there all the text is.
my solution is simple.. i know it will eventually show what i typed. so when it starts to lag.. just keep typing man and it will catch up.
that case is OK. I'm referring to a key being totally unresponsive unless I press really hard or somtimes a key kinda "sticks" and doubles/triples the letter...
It's stopping any quick typing as you finish a word only to see that it has doubled or missed out a letter in the word!!!
If anyone has a solution, even if it means taking the dang divice apart..
i took mine apart the other day for this problem
it looked all fine
i cleaned out the membrane and the board that the membrand touches
worked better for a good 2 hours
and then right back to the problem....
we need a permanent fix lol
my c button is unresponsive now. It seemed fine using Black Majik but its started playing up on Black Satin.
The Problem Revealed - Tricky solution
The solution if you dare!!

Laz Keys
Fellas, I've switched from the Black Majik rom to the Black Satin rom and now all of my kes are responsive as on my old device. I don't know if this is a permanent fix since I've only had this rom for a week or so, but I will update the forum in another week.

I can understand different ROMs affecting the overall responsiveness of the keyboard. However it does not make sense to me that different ROMs would affect the responsiveness of certain keys only.
I would certainly urge folks to be sure their problem is one of specific individual keys only before attempting the physical fix in my post above. In other words be very sure the problem is NOT one of a laggy keyboard response due to ROM/software.

Just wanna share my test....
I got lazy keys on my Dopod 838 Pro also after upgrading to official Dopod WM6 ROM. At this time I had more than 1500 SMS stored. Since the lazy keys were affecting on SMS/Email writing and not on other apps, I was thinking whether the problem is related somehow to this huge number of stored SMS.
I deleted all my SMS and directly afterwards the keyboard is responsive again.
Can't validate this as I need to wait for my SMS to grow again to see if the lazy keys problem returns... but maybe you can check from yours if you have huge number of stored SMS/email.
I open a new thread because those already opened are quite dead... the subject is the proximity sensor on the HTC HD2... as i described in oter places this is the behaviour:
Upon receiving calls ALL works as it should
Sometimes when making a call:
1. dial a number
2. press talk
3. take the phone to my ear
4. the screen turns off
5. it starts ringing
6. THE SCREEN GOES ON
7. take the phone from my ear and put it back
8. the screen goes off
9. it answers on the other side
10. THE SCREEN GOES ON
11. take the phone from my ear and put it back
12. the screen goes off and all works well from now on on this call
I have at least a number that EVERYTIME when called does not acts like this... the proximity sensor does its job very well
I have at least one numbet that almost always did the steps described from 1to 12... only 4-5 times it didn't
If i get a busy tone the screen turns on... it will turn of if i do step 7
I've put back original rom and i have the same behaviour. I tried with clean roms and noting installed... still the same...
One time on a clean rom... I called a number that always did that and the first two calls were ok, after that it started again...
Now I'm using Hyper ROM 8.0 and I see that after step 6 if i keep the phone to my ear th screen will turn itself off after a sec or so... i cannot say right now if always...
Considering that this does not happens to many of us and it is not something permanent I think it can have something to do with the network... I don't know exactly what but this is my guess; like in the moments the screen turns on maybe the networks sends out a "signal" like the call would be over... I know it sounds weird but I don't know what else to think...
I even attached a poll to see who gets this behaviour...
So, to all the CHEFS out there... please help.... because HTC is not willing to... they're answer was not helping at all...
This is weird... I use netDrg's 2.5g ROM and I have no issue with the proximity sensor. Sometimes, when receiving a call, if I rotate the phone from portrait to landscape and then immediately take it to my ear, the screen doesn't turn off, but as soon as the display is back to portrait mode, it turns off. This isn't annoying at all, since I rarely pick up the phone and hold it in landscape to talk !
Maybe you should try a different ROM ? If you understand French well, netDrg's ROM is quite good, although it seems to me that the battery drains faster than with the stock ROM...
french is fine.. actually i would learn any language just to have this fixed... i know about landscape and sensor not working... but it is not the case here
it happens so aleatory... i would think it is a hardware issue... BUT i have one number and with it, this NEVER happened
i had almost all the cleanex suite... touch-x, energy and others... i really can't remeber if this happend since the first day i bought it... i've put back the stock rom downloaded from htc and still the same...
ok... i've made like 15-20 calls to the same number and all worked as it should... than all of a sudden it started to do what i've described in first post... just like this... i'm starting to hate this phone...
it looks like i'm not the only one with this issue... how you guys got it solved?..
just a thought... what triggers the screen on on this phone... i know that some apps open the screen... maybe there is a registry tweak to keep the screen off if proximity detected... this should be done automaticly i know... the fact is that the proximity sensor works...
uhm, just to point it out, you should edit your post instead of posting 4 messages in a row in the same thread
Anyway, this is the exact same problem I noticed reported in another thread, and I didn't have it, I mostly receive and rarely call, yet the few times I called I don't seem to remember such problems, will try and remember to test with my other mobile when I get back home.
today i went back to default rom that came with my phone...
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.48.479.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
and still it does the same
i HSPL again and than put
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship
the same thing
if I call my home landline it works perfectly... if i call one of the numbers i was telling you about it acts like described in post #1
one other thing i discovered though... with the original roms there is a courtain over the buttons on the phone canvas... this not only blocks aditional buttons on the screen but also blocks the top taskbar... wich is a goos thing
anyway for a 4-500 euros phone this thing i'm having shouldn't happen...
still searching... i've seens something with Rilphone.dll... can this make a difference?
LE: Rilphone.dll broke thephone module... hard reset...
Same here ccezar
I only realised in the last couple of weeks that I've hung up on people a few times & sometimes I've tried making the same call on the spot like 5 times in a row & the line has been cut off before it evens rings, which brings me to say that different behaviours on different calling numbers is just a coincidence.
Sort of experimenting at the moment, I think that when I dial, & put the phone to my ear slowly it works. i can see the screen turn off, & the call goes smoothly. Although after I've hung up sometimes the comm manager or arkswitch is on my screen, which only mean that the taskbar is still active...
I almost thought that the screen may have been switching off but the touch function was still there at least for a few more seconds...
There are hundreds(thousands maybe) of us HD2 owners out there, so my feeling is that if there ain't many complaints, it may aswell be a faulty device.
Then again I wonder if that phone canvs slider would make a diference? Anyone know if there's cab for this?
What radio you using
The more I think about it the more I'm convinced that the 2.10.... radios is the culprit for me.
I just flashed my old 2.07.50.27_2 radio, will test for a day or so and see what happens.
If your on a 2.10.50.. radio urself or anyone with the same prob and radio, can I suggest you downgrade to a 2.07 or 2.08/ or 2.09 for euros?
i thought also that it is radio raleted... i tried other radios and still the same...
anyway i don't think it is hardware related... because i have at least one number that never ever got this behaviour... and neither when calling landlines... it is only on some numbers on mobile networks... and i have numbers that get this behaviour only from time to time...
so... how does the proximity sensor works?... when in a call (there is a reg key that appears upon making a call and says activecallcount=1) the proximity sensor activates... if something in the way it turns the screen off... if the call ends the proximity sensor is deactivated... this is where i dont have exact facts... like if i keep the phone to my ear if it will remain with the screen off or once the call ended the screen goes on... i'd go for the second one...
so... my belief is that is has to do with network parameters... you make the call and on steps 5 and 9 from first post i think the phone belives that the call is over... and i guess the network sends a signal that triggers that... i know it sounds like a fairytale...
now i will try to find a sim card from another mobile operator and see if it does the same... i already tried with another seem from my operator and there is no change... maybe if i try a different sim type (there are simple and 3G sims - i have a simple one)
i'll keep digging... anyway... at least one mobile number and all landlines numbers this NEVER HAPPENED...
well that just makes sense ccezar. I'll do the same over the weekend & see what happens.
with another providers sim card that is.
Hey when say you tried with nothing installed, was cookie's hometab on the rom? just a thought
i don't think so... because i also tried with a stock original rom...
LE: i just realized that my phone is network locked... how can i unlock it?

I couldn't tell ya, I can suggest that if you're on a contract your paying for the phone anyway, so you should be able to ring the phone op & ask them for the codes. Where I am, the only time I couldn't have it unlocked is if it was pre paid & less than 12 months old.
after long debates that's the conclusion of HTC
The only option that is left now is to send the device to the Repair Centre so the engineers could examine it. Your device is still under the warranty. But after the diagnosis the engineers will determine whether the fault of the unit is due to misusage, accidental damage or a manufactured fault. Before proceeding with the repair you’ll be notified with the cost of the repair, if it is an out of warranty case. Kindly note that your phone has a global warranty, which means if you have any issues with the phone and would like to get it examined (repaired) it will be through one of our global repair centers Please follow the link below for information about those repair centers. http://www.htc.com/uk/CA_Hotline.aspx?region=GWS Bear in mind as well that if you have European warranty, you’ll be able to repair your phone in any official repair centre in the European Union. Thank you for using HTC products. Please contact us again if you have any questions. Best Regards, HTC Team

I have 2 HD2 1 to learn with and the other for daily use, I had 1of the screens just stop responding to touch it looked perfect, I tried everything I could find on-line nothing worked! called HTC got a RMA autho sent it and before I could check on the status it was back the new screen seems a little different and from the all that i have read and I mean hours it is an issue with some of the devices. make sure to revert back to stock if you've made any mod's at all before sending it back to HTC....
Hi experts,
I recently installed the LEO "Stock" NAND Android ROM from DFT to my HTC HD2. I have the famous G-Sensor Problem. My phone is working perfectly when it is upside down (no black screen on making/ending a phone call and proximity sensor working). I tried calibrating upside down, but no success.
Further investigating, I found bm150.usr solution but:
- Installed "File Expert"
- I made a backup of existing bm150.usr
- I copied the new bm150usr overwriting the old one.
- Restarted. No success.
Further reading, found that I need to delete .txt files under data/misc, however I can't see anything under data/misc.
I have SuperUser installed, how can I use it?
What is rooting?
What is mounting?
I have been trying almost 3 hours, please help!
Thanks...
Ok I downloaded and installed prj_build_v0.3.2. The G-Sensor is calibrating properly. I can see the data/misc folder, so I applied bm150.usr. However during a call, whenever I turn the phone facing UP the screen goes black and turn the phone downwards (facing the ground) the screen gets back! This is really driving me crazy... Is it a hardware fault?
I've been searching for this problem about a month now, flashing at least 10 ROMs, radios etc, with no success. I found this video googling which describes exactly my problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCloMmboCl8
Another example:

I like my phone running Android. Fits my expectations, visual style, performance, sync with Outlook etc. But, it's really hard to use the phone like this when I call a bank or similar, struggling to dial the next extension. My choices are either go outside to sunlight or dial upside down people staring me like a cow...
Right now, I am using Typhoon CM7 ROM from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951
which is a very nice ROM especially with the sound enhancement. Congratulations on the developer! But, my problem still continues...
Please can somebody help me. I'm really frustrated with this problem.
(I wish I could post this message to the right thread. But I'm rookie without 10 messages )
