...only after pressing the green button or touching the answer text on screen??
I hate when is incoming a call, then I pickup the hermes from the case then I see that I've already answered the phone because some button was pressed during the pickup...
So if there's a call that I want to ignore at the moment, I can't (because I need to take the phone off to see who's calling).
Is there a solution for it? I searched the forum but could not find a similar problem.
Thanks
I had a similar issue while using the default case; it may be magnetic-related.
In my case I'm sure that this happend because some button was touched... I almost always see that my browser is running without opening it.
I am using MDA case and no problem so far.
I had a problem with cancel button getting pressed every time I pulled to phone out from the case to answer a call.
I installed AE Button Plus http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php to disable that button.
After i hang up on a call (when the phone is in sleep mode and the screen is locked) the screen unlocks. this is quite contrary to what is mentioned in the phone manual chapter 1 page 45. this becomes an issue since i use a bluetooth headset and the phone remains in its sleeve/case and after every call, a whole bunch of applications will launch since the case is in contact with the screen. have i overlooked some settings or are there other owners who have faced this issue?
ideas and suggestions welcomed
did you check it out if any of the hardware buttons being pressed against the case hence wakening up the phone.?
i had it to only closed al my apps in taskm and it stoped flickering
My HD2 is also behaving in the same way even in controlled test conditions - the phone unlocks when a call comes in (I'm presented with slide to accept or reject call) The phone unlocks during the call, but fails to lock again on disconnect (either by pressing "end call" or hang up via bluetooth).
Can anyone verify this? Is it interacting with something I installed?
I believe I found a (complicated) workaround.
What I want: leave HD2 inside pocket, answer calls with bluetooth headset, hang up and phone will go back to lock.
Problem: After I hang up using bluetooth or press the big red "End Call" button or the other party hangs up, the phone stays unlocked! It stays powered on and all kinds of buttons gets clicked.
Practically all lock sw uses their own lock screen (which I don't want to install). CSDevCtrl does not trigger by phone. TouchLockPro uses its own transparent lock screen but can respond to phone events. Using the !SUSPEND for TAPI\Ended under settings does not seem to work when the screen dims about 50 secs into the call.
Solution: Use TouchLockPro together with LockAndOff. Get TAPI\Ended to run LockAndOff will turn phone off, whether by bluetooth, big red "End Call" button, or the other party hangs up.
BTW: I think there is some confusion on whether the phone locks when you
1. press the big red "End Call" button, or
2. the hard "End call" button
in the forums.
I noticed that HD2 have a light sensor next to the top ear speaker.
During a call, if the phone is put near the ear and cover the light sensor , the screen become non-active which is good.
If anyone can come up with a lock sceen using this light sensor , then the problem with random launch of program when phone inside pocket will be solved.
This lock screen should only activated right after an end of call, beacuse , sometime you may want to use the phone in a dark place.

It's the proximity sensor that turns the screen on and off during a call, not the light sensor. How else would it work in the dark? (which it does)

My proximity sensor does not work, when I am getting a call my screen turn off and when I am taking the phone out from my face it turn on only when I am out side at the sun!! the screen stay off when I am inside room. I tested it with flsh light and it is working also.
I have a T-Mobile US version of the HD2. I am having the same problem when using the bluetooth system in my car. After answering or making a call the phone stay unlocked. And then starts making random calls while I am driving!!!!
There has got to be an easy fix for this!!!
Buy pocketshield, problem solved.
i have this unlock problem with 1.48 rom and i solve it by pressing start button and lock. after that everything works fine unless i change theme in settings. then just repeat first step.
Solved
Same trouble with me until I use the following software. I tried it and it's almost perfect. unzip it and just copy to your HD2, run CallerLoc.exe and click Yes, you'll find:when you hang up, or he/she hang up a call, or a call is established, the screen will turn off.
Why say 'almost perfect', the software is in chinese, but the filename is in english. and it's a call location software but with the function we need.
To stop or before you delete the software, run Callerloc.exe and click Yes again.
Hope this will help you. Sorry I don't find a English version of this software. I esure and I'm using this software perfectlly with my Leo.

Greetings.
I understand this is quite an old thread I'm digging up but I need a little help as well and I didn't want to start a new topic just for that.
I've this silly problem, appeared right out of the blue:
You all know the standard manila behavior, when the phone is idle, the screen first dims and after some more time, depending on your preferences, the screen locks. It also locks if you press the power off button. This all was happening to me till this morning.
I added an event in the calendar (the only change I made today) and after that, my phone dims and then goes in sleep mode after the designated period of time, but DOESN'T lock!!! It doesn't even lock when I press the power off button. I can still lock it by pressing Start and then lock or by press and hold the power button and choose the lock phone option. So one would say that it's still operational, so why bother about it, but I kinda liked the standard function and I have to freaking idea why it changed!!!
I'd be most appreciative if you could offer some help with that.
Oh, I forgot to mention. Soft reset didn't solve the problem. Erasing the calendar event didn't either.
My phone runs the factory ROM (1.66.482.1 ELL), I haven't changed anything other than user settings (yeah, I'm a noob... )
Thanks in advance!

Pocketshield could be the end of your problems. You can try it for 10 days and see how it goes...
But why do I need to buy third party software in order to revert my phone to it's original operation?
No, this is not the answer I am looking for. I was wondering if you know of any kind of settings that might have changed by accident and caused this undesired behavior.
Thanks.
The best to return to normal operation would be a hard reset. Or you can spend a while trying.
You can try
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen\Enable=1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen\Active=1
Thank you very much. I opted for the hard reset option... I hope it stays ok this time!
My HD2 also had some strange unlocking and unwanted calling.
I noticed it appeared when using the android style lockscreen.
When I changed back to the original one, problem solved
i had this too. the andriod lockscreen seems to be a bit buggy last time i used it, i accidentially called 7 random numbers
Hi Guys,
I have been having issues when trying to end a call with the new WP7 Rom. I also used to have this when using Andriod Roms.
When I go to end a call, pressing the end call button does nothing apart from light up the keypad. I've tried pressing every button but nothing but the keypad lighting up happens, the call never ends! I have to remove my battery and switch the phone back on to get the use of my phone back.
I have :
HardSPL 2.08
MAGDLR111
Radio 2.15.50.14
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Jon

Did you not try the end call on the screen? Not the hard one on the bottom right of phone
Russ
The screen turns off when making a call so the touch buttons are not available. This is why I have to remove the battery as I have no other way of bringing the display back to life. Obviously if I make a call and the other person hangs up it's fine. However if they do not answer and it goes to voicemail or I call my voicemail I get stuck in a never ending loop of press 2 to hear your messages.

Official windows phones have no hard end call button, just the on screen one, therefor I dont think its possible to end a call with the hardware button. Yes, the screen goes off when making a call, but due to the proximity censor it should come back when you move it away from your head. If it does not, make sure its not covered, even a screen protector can block the proximity sensor. Its located next to the speaker.
Hmm I removed the screen protector and still no joy when I move the phone away from my face. The screen just remains black. I did crack the screen about 5 months ago and had it replaced, perhaps they've done a poor job on this....
Don't think so... My is in perfect shape. proximity works on android but not on wp7... i also can't press end call button.
same thing with me
well i get the same problem with mine also, is there anything we can do for that.
I have the same issue, though it only happens to me when calling my voicemail. I hit "end call" and it just hangs there with the message "Ending call..." and I have to pull the battery :/ Regular phone calls have been just fine though.
Finally cracked this one!
I have been experiencing this issue on my Optimus 7 phone since day one, on all firmware versions and I now have the latest update.
This is what worked for me:
-set the automatic brightness to off and choose any manual setting that suits your needs, I chose medium.
-set the screen timeout to never (not sure that this is necessary, I will change it back to 30 sec to see if the issue returns and post back)
I hope this works with your phones, it was really frustrating to pull the batery out. Good luck!
I've had this issue as well. Pressing the end call button on the screen won't end many of my calls, voicemail or to another person. But it's rare enough that it hasn't bothered me, too much. But is a problem that needs to be figured out, if possible.
We should come up witha way to re map the hard buttons to usefull use

I'm assuming your phone is an HD2. First of all, the call should automatically end when the other party hangs up. Secondly, just hit the Power button to turn the screen back on and then unlock the phone and hang up. What is so difficult? WP7 remaps the HD2 buttons so they don't work as they did in WM.

Worked. T H A N K S!!!
Hello all,
I have a problem with my HD2's touchscreen. I've had the phone for awhile now and never had any problems. I've been using android from Sd for awhie and recently switched to NAND android.
I go to bed with a working phone and when I wake up, the touchscreen doesn't work. After trying to use it all day, it occasionly works. When I receive a call or text, the screen works just fine. I am abe to use it until the screen turns off then no more. This happens for each call or text. It also works just fine at first boot(until the screen is turned off.
Thinking that this was a software problem, I tried flashing different android builds, with the EXACT same results. I then wondered if it was a problem with MAGLDER, so I flashed back to a STOCK TMOUS rom, and stock SP, radio etc.
Even after going back to COMPLETELY stock, it now does the same thing in WINMO. Works just find at first boot until screen goes off, and works when I get calls and texts.
I'm now thinking that this is a hardware/digitizer problem, it just seems weird to me that it works 100% until the screen goes off and then not at all.
Anybody have any idea's or insights?
Thanks!
i've read a few similar threads (please search for them!) that indicate one possible cause...
your buttons strips at the bottom may be messing with the touch screen connections. i remember reading in one thread that the dude found a strong relationship between use of the on/off/endcall button and touchscreen failures.
you say it works...:
1. ...until the screen powers off
2. also works when you get an sms or call
in case (1), you have to press the endcall button to "wake" the device...so maybe the button puts just enough pressure to screw up the screen.
in case (2), the device wakes up automatically, so you never pressed the button that might cause the screen to screw up.
try to narrow it down like i've described. maybe your buttons are causing the problem. good luck!
Thanks for replying!
I did see the thread you were talking about though it did not seem to match my problems. However, today as I was working and pulling my phone out, It has started to look like that is the case. As of this afternoon, as long as I press any of the buttons other then the power/end call button to turn on the screen, the tuchscreen works just fine. When waking up the screen with the power/end call button, it does not work at all.
Yesterday and this morning, it didn't matter what button I pushed to wake up the screen, it was totally unresponsive.
So it looks like using the power/end cal button presses on my digitizer and causes problems.
And it's back to not working at all when I use any of the buttons, lol. Guess it's time to start looking into a new digitizer.
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

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...

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.

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.

+ 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.
