ps advice!

There's a thread called "Proximity Sensor" or something similar. You might want to give out a read. And search is also your friend. Don't be scared of using it.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
it has nothing to do with the proximity senssor
it happens when i press the dial buttom even if the HD is on the table
and pls assume i am well familiar with the search options
Connect to Wifi and check for software updates dude....
Go to Settings -> About Phone -> System software update and check for updates. I've had similar problem but it was resolved immediately after a quick soft update to the latest firmware version. Also note that the update is about 18 MB so it will be a good idea to use Wi-Fi connection if you're not on an unlimited traffic plan.
it's solved!!
thanks for the help

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.
as some of you may know, i received my HD MINI in italian language....
thanks to some help from this forum, ive been able to install BSB tweaks and now about 25% of my phone is in english..
im wondering if any of you can tell me WHERE in my phone i can set the settings for the below problems, as most of my menus are still written in italian:
1. when i set an alarm, the alarm will only ring ONCE (approx. 5 seconds), it's like the alarm ringtone sound file doesnt loop
2. i dont hear any sounds when i receive an incoming SMS message, my phone just flashes the green LED in the top corner. The phone isnt on silent mode though, because regular calls ring
hi htc_999.
the way i managed to change mine was to go to settings, then press menu and go to all settings. next (at the top) press notifications, then change the event to "message - new message" and you should be able to tick "play sound"
hope that helps
my phone is in italian, and i cannot understand all the menus fully, but im pretty sure i checked the box for sound under the subsection of "nuovo messagio" but still doesnt work
Mine is Italian as well, so the path is:
Impostazioni / Toni e display / Suoni di Notifica
The option Nuovo messagio must be in Att, and if you press there, you can select the sound you want. Also the setting Vibrazione must be either in off or att, but never in Solo.
Then check that the volume is not down or too low (with the volume rocker).
If all above is ok, it should work.
Maybe its related to similar problems i had in the past after changing the language?
Take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583878
Gr,

Its a HD2 topic but i worked for my Touch HD, hopefully it works for you as well.
mini HD same problems.
Well i got the mini HD in Greek language which is my language so there is no way i get messed up in the menus.
I observed the same issue with the alarm and after a lot of tries i observed that the alarm fails due to sleeping mode of the phone.The 30 sec on for display strangles the alarm ,which is working ok if the phone is connected to external power with an option of display sleeping mode longer than that with no connected to external power.
In addition to this the second issue you talk about is probably born from the same point as the sms alert works just fine when the phone is on but nothing sounds when the phone is in sleeping mode.
I have tried all in the settings but nothing .
Probably its a software problem that htc should know and fix it.
By the way have you observed a diminuated signal of your phone provider? The signal to me seems as looping from one line to four more constantly on one in an area that all the family phones get the most power signal constantly.
I have just sent an email to htc.If i got any answer i will let you know.
Solved the issues
It seems i found a way to solve the issues described above as my thought about the sleeping mode problem seems to be right.
Well a the power setting you have to choose the potion for backlight page control.Then uncheck the auto reglation of display light and let a value of 80% for both options battery and external power.Then check back the auto reglation for the back light . now you have to increase the time values using battery for decreasing light on display at 2min and turn off at 5min. use the same values for eternal power also
Then using path settings ,menu right bottom,option for more,sound and notifications,notifications , you access the page where rolling down the happening bar you get the option for new message.After some tries i can say that not all the tones are working properly.for example dont use Alarm-VeryHigh .It wont work. Try the tone Notify and check the playing option and the display message option.
With these settings the alarm should work for 2 minutes loopig normaly and the sms will sound when it comes.
Try it sending a message to yourself turning off the display by the top power button immediately after you send the message.
Hope I helped.I mstill waiting an answer to the email i sent to htc.Hope thet resolve the issues with an upgraded rom as it seems its a software problem.
By the way the clarifing sound issue you may have can be solved with the update given by htc to the official site .Dont forget to set a volume value to 80%.
All issues resolved
Hi, as i ve written before i communicated with htc ,they proposed to go to service. Afterall i had the opportunity to talk with the technician of htc who explained me how the issues would be resolved after a software upgrade.
So they did the job , upgrated my device and now works great.
One thing i am courious about is that after i got the device back i checked the official site and there is nothing there as upgrade. So by now if you have the same issues you have to go to htc service.
thanks mihan.....
i will save the trouble and wait for a update patch
The update is available now

Xmm i have the same problem in SMS . Have not idea yet how to fix it
I tested with the new patch but not luck . still no sound when i receive a sms
Moved to general...
WHY dont you read the previous messages? This problems were common to many users and will be resolved with the updated 30/06/10 rom from htc site.
i tested with the last rom but still no luck
i successfully updated to froyo from kies. before this i had the stock rom and did not install any custom one
after updating my proximity sensor works when the phone is held vertical in an upright position
but after making a call, if i keep it on the table and close the sensor, the screen doesn't turn off. it should turn off and was working fine in 2.1 for me
can you guys confirm if the sensor turns off even when laid flat on the table?
also, the volume up/down button does not silence the ringtone when i get a call
please reply so that i can confirm whether the problem is with my phone or with the new release.
Not sure about the sensor problem but as far as your second problem is concerned hold the vol down button for a few seconds to mute the ringtone
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
Proximity Sensor is problematic
Yes The Sensor does'nt seem to be responding towards the end of the call. Just use the home key to light up the screen.
The display screen timeout settings does not automatically turn off even after specified time.this happens very often and need to enable screen timeout settings again and again.

Yes , I am experiencing problem with Swype , it is not responding to aby gesture. I am able to type using swype as regular keypad but not as "swype". I resetted my phone 3-4 times but i wasn't lucky.
So i am using keypad only. Its official DDJP2 FROYO version thpugh its flashed using odin as i was experiencing problem with KIES.
I am experiencing some strange behavior in media and notification sound. while i play some song and want to lock my screen from power button, some glitchy sound is coming, same happening when some messages coming. is anybody experiencing the same. plz try it with headphone attached while playing a song and just lock the screen from power button menu...

Yes....This is happening
This is the worst release by Samsung , as per me....Even on call if you are using headphone, you will hear clicking sound (argh)
Yes the proximity sensor isn't working fine. Screen does not turn on after a call. So I need to press home screen every time.
And long pressing menu button in call log does not enable search bar which happened perfectly in 2.1

we do know about pressing the power on/off key but that also switches off the sceen. but volume up/down only silences the ringtone but doesn't switch off screen.

swype doesn't work because languages are not installed. root, delete swype, install swype from official site.

and during a call, if you press volume up/down button to increase/decrease the volume, the voice breaks for a second and you hear a clicking noise.
these problems are seriously irritating me. thinking of going back to 2.1 or some custom ROM is samsung does not release an update fixing these problems.
Few more problems that I had observed....
1. If you open contacts and press back button you won't be going any where
2. Previously I used to connect my phone using bluetooth to my PC (Ubuntu) but now even after turning on my Bluetooth along with visiblity phone is not visible. Once I was lucky and recognized my phone as "V5" though the device name is different.
3. If you try to add pics to the contacts from your gallery the time taken is very long which was not the case with Eclair 2.1
4. Previously with Launcher Pro plus on Eclair I never had to "Force close" any application, but after upgrading to Froyo the first call itself raised a warning for force close. Even after sometime in my other call I couldn't End my call as the screen was not responsive.
After a struggle for One day on latest Firmware I feel that its not that worth to wait this much amount of time for official firmware.

I was experiencing the same problem on the first day, but after that i rooted my phone and installed busybox. from last 2 days did not find that contacts back key problem anymore.. i dont know its a temporary fix and what has fixed it anyway...
but really .. somehow this release is not at all convincing. so sad.

i too feel the same way mate..
can anybody tell me if I5801ZHJPF better that DDJP2?
I have another different problem my battery life is not going above 10 hrs while on 2.1 i used to get 18hrs. Am i missing some setting or what.I am gonna install something else if this **** firmware does not improve in the next update
i think this update was hastily released.
many bugs in it.
if you see the in-built task manager, the "uninstall" button is not even properly designed.
even accelerometer has some problems
the worst bug ever is the camera bug
theres this geo-tagging option..
until you get a fix on ur location camera will force close..
and it cant be disabled at all..
the only way to get around it is to use 3g or disable network mode in 2g..

i saw somewhere that this can be solved by disabling "use wireless network" option in settings->location and security.
not sure though. try it.

+ add one more bug to the list,
the microphone is also not working properly with different applications like Talking Tom or Talking Parrot, previously they used work on 2.1 without any problem or distrubance.
Did anybody also had the same problem?
One good thing with the Froyo update is previously my phone is used to restart unconditionally with the stock firmware (randomly sometimes during call or when Ideal). But till now no such weird behaviour in the current release.
Hey there people.
i am hoping some one can help me out a lill here, i have an motorola xt912 i live in sweden atm so it is on a
swedish sim the phone is 100% stock rom.
the issue i am having atm is getting worse when even i make a call the screen goes blank and i carnt do anything
what so ever i have to have Power button set to hang up to end the call then i can get out of the call.
as a rule this is not a huge issue save when i need to call my ISP or somthing when i need to use the nuber pad
like when i call my bank (must to this often) the problem used to be intermittent but now it is prity much every
phone call made this happens.
any one know of a working solution to this problem.
many thanx people
You may get more help posting on the RAZR forum as the xt912 is the og RAZR ... my wife still has the 912 on stock and it did this a few times but I just factory reset it and it resolved the issue.... but on hers the proximity sensor won't turn off it stays on well I can see it illuminated all the time... try it in safe mode see if it still does it... I forget how to do it b4 the update if your on jb just hold the power button till screen pop long press reboot and enter safe mode...

a.) this is a forum for the XT907, but this resolution process should still be the same
b.) check to make sure that the sensors (upper left-hand corner on the face of the phone) are not blocked. these sensors enable the phone to black out when near your face while in call.
I just recently bought my Note 4, and have to say it is the single best phone I have ever owned lol. I am still trying to learn about it. I mean it is Rooted and I do not even know what that means LOL
Anyways the reason I joined is because I need help. This has been happen off and on, my phone keeps beeping every time I shake my phone. I did not know you can shake the phone and even have it do anything (I need to really learn more about my phone haha). When I am out walking the beep drives me bonkers! It will even bleep during the start of a phone call. I recorded the sound and really hope that I can upload it.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide. I am sure it is just something simple, but I am not seeing it
Hi there,
A simple Google search brings me here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/282858-2-tone-beep-sound-constantly-playing.html
Did you try turning off NFC to see if this causes the problem?
(This doesn't seem to happen on my handset when turned on btw.)
Else turn off Orientation Lock maybe?
(Seeing the fact you say it occurs more when you move or shake your handset.)
Question: Does the sound also play if the profile is on silent mode?
Kind regards, Stefan.
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question
I came across that same thread when I was searching for answers before coming here. It did not find it relevant because my NFC is not on.
I was able to kind of see a screen before silly me accidentally hit the back button. I did not see the name of the app, but it was a white background with a picture of an orange mic and switch on the bottom in orange that says sonar. There was probably other things on the page but that is all I saw for the split second I saw the screen. Then it is after it started doing the beeping. When I look at my apps the only ones I have that have anything to do with my mic is S Voice, Voice Recorder and Voice Search, and not one of them are what I saw. The beeping I am hearing same kind of sound I would hear if I tap Voice Search, but that is not what is causing the beeps.
Hi again,
It does sound like the Voice Search beep, but it seems different.
You could try to disable double tap home for Svoice but I doubt if it would work:
Double tap the home button to*open S Voice.
Press the menu button in the top right of the app.
Tap “Settings.”Uncheck “Open via the home key.”
Did you check the screen orientation lock yet?
I assume you have rebooted your handset right?
Kind regards, Stefan.
We are becoming fast friends! LOL
Yes it does sound the voice search, and it does go away after I reboot my phone, I would just really like to know what this is though so I can try to prevent it from happening or turn it off when it does happen.
Again, thank you so much for caring enough to try and help me.
An other thing that ia worth mentioning is under:
Accessibility these is: direct acces.
When enabled it enables certain user set options by 3x pressing the home button.
But I could not find any option that enabled this beeping.
It could very well be a third party app causing it.
Anyways good luck, maybe anyone else has some input.
Kind regards, Stefan.
You might try safe mode to see if an app is causing it. It will temporarily disable all non-system apps. See if that fixes it. If so, it is an app you installed. m.androidcentral (I can't post links yet so change this to a '.') com/galaxy-note-4-safe-mode
