Ive also had this issue on the 3 roms ive ran so just want to verify.
When I get a call or text my phone lights up first for a few seconds before a ringtone/alert is heard and the screen shows either the caller or the text sender. Is this the case for everyone else?
Yes, I have the same on my Dutch rom. Also when a call is ended the screen go's not to home screen or people tab (what I would prefer), but it go's to the phone screen and only after a few secconds to people tab.
Any sollutions to both?

Hello,
when I do a call on my HD and put the touchscreen out, the device isn´t looked. Badly sometimes I touch the some of the four buttons at the device especially when the HD is in the pocket. So the device is hanging the call up or do something like "hold the line".
Is it possible to protect the device so that this could never happen? Its very stupied when you do a call and suddenly the call is gone because you press by mistake the button.
I hope you could help me with my question.

Search for LOCK or DEVICE LOCK here...
I think this doesent match my search. I want to look the device in a call, the other works perfect with PocketShild. But my problem with the call is not solved in this program

Did you mean that you do a call over the headset and leave your HD in the pocket?
Yes I do... i make a call over my headset and out it in the pocket back
I just read this post (regarding the Touch Pro / Raphael). I don't know if it helps or if it applies to the HD as well. See the second entry there by aussieak. I don't quite understand what he is saying - but maybe it's because I'm a newbie at this.
Let us know if it helps. I'm sure more people would be interested in finding a solution to this.
EDIT: I just searched Google and found this other post in a Sprint forum. It is about the HTC Touch (not the HD), but apparently pressing the power button at the top in that case should indeed turn off the screen without powering off the phone. Others suggested using third-party software like S2U2, which apparently can be set to lock the screen when a call is answered. This YouTube Video shows the settings screen (at 39 seconds into it, you see the "Blank screen on talk" option). Some people wrote that it works great for them and others say that it is not 100% reliable. Others suggested this program - but unlike S2U2, it is not free. It costs about 13 dollars.
Hey guys, i noticed that when the screen turns off or goes into stand by and you recieve an SMS/MMS message, the alert sound still comes on, but the screen stays off. Is there a way to change this? It's sort of annoying having to press the top button just to see if a text message comes in. Can it be tweaked in the registry? If so, what would one have to do to change it? I have a registry editor installed on my phone so if anyone has any ideas......go ahead
Standby when phone call received
Hey all,
An extension of the Q above, When I make or receive phone calls, the screen shortly after goes blank, he only way to see the screen again to press the "Call" buttin again, which puts the caller the call on hold. I have to quickly press the "Unhold button again " which is very annoying!
Any ideas any1?
Thanks in Advance...

Use the power on\off button on top instead of pressing the the Dial button.. it was annoying for me too but the power button does it for me and it's better than to keep the screen on during the whole call since all my calls are above five mins
bump...someone has to have some idea what can be done to fix this
If you install HDTweak ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505 ), you can disable the screen switching off during a call and/or make the device wake up when a new SMS is received. It works for me.
Installing HD tweak and then going to 2.2 will solve your problem.
try the hd tweak or the diamond config both have twaeks to activate the screen when you receive the sms. but be sure to lock the phone for when you have it in your pocket.
NICE!!!! thanks guys for the info, i will try this ASAP when i get home
GAWD I LOVE THIS FORUM

Hi there, I disabled 1.1 and it still does not seem to work for me
However, Enabled 2.1 and that works.
Please help ...
In HDtweak, I have 1.1 disabled, 1.2 Disallow, 1.3 Disabled
The screen doesn't go off during a call. I can always press the power button to turn off/on the screen manually if i want to save battery during a long call (or not attract attention when calling on a dark street!)

I did the above and it worked...I missed those parts of the instructions
Thanks!
I just installed Google Voice on my Epic 4G and received my first phone call on it - and was unable to answer. Two problems - first, when I answered, the greeting telling me to press "1" to accept was cut off at the beginning (all I heard was '...all from [spoken voice]. Press 1 to accept".
I can get past that, but then when I pulled up the dial pad to press 1, I was unable to. I pounded on the "1," was sure it was showing up, but it would not answer the call. I tried enabling audible touch tones but that didn't work, and I don't think there's a setting on the epic to change between long/short touch tones.
Does anyone know what's going on with this?

I think the second problem is a bug. It's not related to google voice but the phone itself. The dialpad is not very responsive when you take the phone off your face and the screen is back on. Wait a few seconds, and it'll be back again.
It happened all the time when I called any customer service number and tried to use the dialpad to choose in the menu.
Bigger problem

I never had the phone to my face when I did my test calls - this was always phone in my hand and calling from my office phone.
I think I just came across a bigger problem - the dialpad doesn't work on incoming calls. I just called my phone from my office on the regular (not G-voice) number and pushed a bunch of buttons, and couldn't hear the tones.
You can disable the initial greeting and go straight to the call when you pick up. It is under Voice Setting in your google voice account. I know this doesn't address your unresponsive screen issue, but it's a temporary work around until your dialpad gets fixed.

Is this actually a bug? I posted another thread here and am trying to have people verify whether or not this is a real issue - if it's not a bug then I definitely need to replace the phone, 'cuz it's been factory reset as of last night.
Have a weird issue with my call waiting -- it just seems to go through and switch me over without notice and without my input. I'll be talking to someone, and then suddenly I'm talking to someone else .. ?!?!
Anyone else having this issue? I don't even hear a -beep- like my old phones which used to warn me of a second call ..
My theory is that when the call comes through the screen lights-up and waits for my input and perhaps my face is accepting the change-over?!
If I hold the phone and use speakerphone, I see the prompt for the second-call ..
any help appreciated!
Exactly same isssue..
Your theory is right, i'm experienced twice at least today.. There is a big green button at lower screen area while call waiting state.. It's too easy to activate one of them accidentally with your face..
Anyway, i want to change dialer, but every dialer app only change dialer, but "on-call screen" stay stock one which i don't like...
Any suggestions ?

Sorry, hadn't seen your response ---
I still haven't resolved this issue either .. very annoying. I'm talking to one person then all of a sudden I'm speaking to someone else.
I've tried to reproduce the problem by having a conversation and having someone then call me .. but I couldn't .. this time I heard the call-waiting beep and it didn't switch over, it waited for my input.
When I get 'the issue', it just switches over to the other call without my permission and it terminates the first call.
I'm wondering if this is a fault with my phone, or an issue with the pseudo-roms i have on my phone like Gingerblur, gladiatrix, etc --- or the dialer itself .. shrug
no one else experience this?
Seems that whenever I disconnect a phone call, the call log is automatically displayed. Other phones I've used return you to the home screen when disconnecting a phone call. Why would I need to view the call log after hanging up (I know who I just talked to so why would I need to see it...). I know it's easy to press the button to close the log but this is just one of those little quirks I find annoying.
Is there a setting I'm missing to return to the home screen when a call is finished?
Thanks for any help.

I dunno... I kinda like it staying in the phone app. And it kind of makes sense if you're disconnected and need to call back (or need to make another call and get back to that person).
I have no idea why anyone ever thought that was a good idea, but there's an app to fix that. I've used it on all my Android phones, and it works well.

Just for info: Some Custom ROMs have a setting in the dialer app to exit after the call instead of going to the call log. I don't know why anyone would want that either...
Thanks to all for the replies. I ended up creating a Tasker profile to take it back to the home screen upon ending a phone call. (works great).
Probably in case of dropped calls? I can see that being the reason.
