All,
I coulda sworn I saw a setting that automatically turns the speakerphone on when I place the phone face down. For the life of me, I can't find it.
Any help would be great!
Thanks!

Hi guys, this is my first post - very exciting.
I've had the HD2 for 3 weeks now and I love it. The only issue I have is with it dropping calls. I don't think it handles the handover from cell to cell very well but that's not my main issue as it happened from time to time on other phones too. My main query is with the clever accelerometer related functions. According to the manual, during a call if you put it face down it activates the speaker. Mine just ends the call. I think that it is getting confused during calls if I move and cutting me off. Done two hard resets but no joy. Does anyone know how to disable the function either through settings or registry?
I've looked around for quite a while on the forum and can't find what I'm looking for. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers
Dan
PS It has stock O2 ROM, BSB tweaks, etc

In terms of dropping calls, it is usually due to the handover sequence between cellsites, rather than the handset itself.
I'm guessing you are on O2? If so, PM me your location and I'll get my "inside contact" to take a look at any outstanding issues there.
I must admit, I've not used that accelerometer feature yet, but I have turned it on. (Under Settings -> Sound & Display -> Ring and Notifications)
Erm.. This might sound like a dumb post but I was having problems with call disconnection whilst in the middle of calls. I discovered the problem - I'm LEFT HANDED!
When I used the device I held it in my right hand and type/operate with my left. When I held the phone to my right ear to have a conversation I was occasionaly touching my cheek with the call-end button and that's how I was getting repeated disconnections - true story.
I am now a practicing ambidextarian...
Thanks for getting back so quickly guys
a practicing ambidextarian eh............ I wish I could breathe underwater! (sorry I couldn't resist it)
I don't think I'm cutting off the call through contact with the screen all the time though but yes I have done it more than once!
Thanks for the info rp-x1. I'm in Settings -> Sound & Display -> Ring and Notifications and the only thing that looks relevant is the 'Quiet ring on pickup' option and I'm not sure it's related. For instance, I got a call early yesterday morning and answered the call in bed. When the wife elbowed me and I turned on my side the phone assumed I was putting it face down and ended the call. I'm looking to disable this function.
Dropping Phone calls even in locked screen state
I am also dropping a alot of calls . Not sure if it is related to face down as the phone is always upright after answring a call. May be the call end button.
Having said that the phone was locked when I received a call today. I moved the slider to answer said "hello", then after 3 seconds it disconnected.
Any ideas?
Thanks
edit: Seems like a proxomity sensor issue, judging by other threads. Will continue to search for a fix/workaround.
htc hd2 dropping calls
Hi everyone,
I have a htc hd2 since 1/2011, love the phone BUT i HATE the dropping calls problem!! Please help. also will upgrade to windows 7 help with this problem.
I hardly use the phone to make calls, so I'm not sure if the calls dropping in the past is any relation, but as stated by Danno320, according to the manual ( i went back looking for this ), turning the phone face-down will activate speakerphone.
This is so exciting... so I tried it a few times.
All it did was to disconnect the calls.
I wonder if the action really does turn the speakerphone on.
Anyone who's tried and succeeded?
I also want to know if there's a solution to this now that I know my phone isn't functioning like what the manual said it should be...
Hi,
When I call someone, HD2 vibrates once, how do I disable this?
settings - sound and display - click "ring type" set to "Ring"
Hi, wouldn't it then disable vibration when someone is calling me?
I've Found it, Go to phone settings (Comm manager>Phone) and turn off vibrate when connected it is found near the bottom
Ah, my mistake, I misread.
Amazing, thanks a lot
Ok, so on the HD2, when you lay it down on a table or something, it automatically goes into speaker.
Does anyone know how to disable this? Cause it'll sometimes turn speaker on when its right next to my ear
mine has never done this...

Mine does....get into a phone call, then flip the phone face-down and place it on a surface, it should auto-route the call to the speakerphone until you pick it up again. One of the cool features carried over from the TP2
I can't remember where the setting for it is though...I'm digging for it now
I thought this phone was loaded with it...but I've not tested it yet.

Hey guys.
Sorry if this has been covered...I've searched a variety of combos and came up empty handed. I'm not sure exactly what it's called, but I'm trying to figure out how to disable the feature where the ringer silences when the phone is moved or flipped on my buddy's Evo. For some reason, the ringer silences way too easily while sliding around on the dash in a car, etc.
If someone could help me out real quick that would be superb =D
There's a setting in the sound settings, quiet on pickup, uncheck the box.
sent from hell...

Thank you sir
On Cyanogen it is Settings > Call Settings > Turn Over Silence
The incoming call vibration is a bit annoying to me. It overpowers the ringtone. Somehow i can't figure or find the settings to turn it off. Help!
settings > sound > vibrate (uncheck the box)
Thanks, that was simple. For sum reason I had thought it was for notifications only and excluded call
