Screen turns off during call?

Anyone else find this irritating? Each time I'm during a call, the screen goes blank. If I need to use the keypad or switch to speakerphone during a call, i first need to press the home key which turns on the screen, and then use any of the on-screen buttons. Even once the on-screen has been activated, and say I'm using the keypad, after few seconds the screen goes blank again, and I need to do it all over again...
Any way to get around this?

Yea its freaking annoying but i don't know of any solution for this. In the Raphel Tweaks thread many different things have been tried and failed so maybe something will come up soon enough

You can try tweak from Diamond forum - afair there was thread regarding this issue and some fix was provided.

yea i did try it. but it didnt work on the touch pro..

I'd be very interested in a solution for this too. Pretty annoying.

I would just like to bring this thread back to the surface, to see if anyone has had any luck with fixing this yet. Very Annoying bug...

NoSleep!!!.cab worked for me, searchsearchsearch... I think Shinobi made it, sorry if I'm wrong on that.

Major problem with touch screen on Polaris

Hello all... got kind of a big problem that i at the moment don't have an answer to,..
inastalled advanced configuration tool 3.2 on HTC Polaris, the first crash i had was when I enabled animation for menus... (the start menu turned black and the polaris froze), but when i managed to start the advanced configuration tool i unchecked it and it was ok,...
the MAJOR PROBLEM accured when I set the touch screen sensitivity, because the touch part of the screen is inresponsive,.. meaning it does not work at all,.. tryed very hart pressing but it doesn't do it.. the problem is because i can't reach eg start menu or the lower 2 shortcuts with hard button cursor (the wheel)... gestures work however, so i can call the touch flo cube but am not able to select anything, and sam thing goes for enetering pin,.. so i'm not able to make phone calls at the moment.. did few hard resets, and uninstalled the adv. conf. tool but nothing helped... can anyone tel me where (and how to get there) can i adjust this back to normal, i wanted to do this in the advanced configuration tool 3.2 but the problem is you cant make any changes since the screen doesn't work,.. same with reinstalling the program, i can select to install it on a card but canot "click" on next since the screen doesn't do it and the hard keys "can't go there"
so really really someone help me please...
thnx

Are you sure you hard reset and this problem went away or did you mean soft reset?
Maybe aligning the screen will help reset the pressure? Click the button in the middle of the wheel and the GPS button at the same time, the Windows align screen pops up. See if that helps.
I find it very hard to believe that you hard reset and the touch screen sensitivity is still not there. That can't be right.

Hi,
thanx for the reply,... another problem that accoured afterwards was that my friend held the end button (wich locks the keys, screen) and the phone was additionally locked... and literally nothing (again NOTHING ) helped, spent 5 hours trying to save the situation,.. i did soft reset (so your assumption was right) but when later tryed hard reset it probably wasn't done since the instructions say you do it with holding gps and iExplorer buttons while soft reseting it... this resulted in getting the "hard reset screen" wich says to confirm hard reset with hitting the send button, wich unfortunatelly i wasnt able to find in hard keys, and nothing else but this warning text was on the screen as well.. so in the end it probably ended upo wit soft resetting it, anyways it didn't help,... i decided to reinstall the rom i downloaded on htc official site,... it went thru ok and the phone is , though out of the box at least functional,... but in the end, i must admit that am a little surprised this happened with this tool pack (i actually avoided altering the registers just in order to avoid this kid of situations since i don't really know much about these things)... was expecting it to work (in my case) a bit better, more stable. All i wanted really was to get a bit louder speaker volume when ringing and ability to alter the HTC home toolbar, since i find the weather screen totaly irreliable and never really use it, so i thought I would have sth there that i might really have some use of..
well nevertheless.. the phone is working, that's all that matters at the mom so i can again start finishing my phd wich i am defending in a week
PS. the fact that you can not do practically anything without the touch screen just sucks big time, if i compare it to the mouse on pc,... i saved the situation many times with the keybord .. in 1 word strange
take care

My Mobile
Perhaps you should have tryied out the "My Mobile" aplication that allows you to use your mobile from a PC.
It shows a windows with the mobile screen and you can touch it and use the mobile like if you was touching the REAL mobile...
Late for that solucion, perhaps another with that problem can solve it this way...

@gastonfama: am not sure this would help, since a friend that has htc diamond has this tool pack on and it work k ok on his phone,.. that's why i predicted that it is going to be stable enough on mnie as well,.. so in my thinking, if the 2 htc that are rather alike had such different "reaction", than an emulation would be even less comparable to mine, thanks though

Had the same problem with Schaps_AdvancedConfig and wrong HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel\PressureThreshold setting.
XML I used had "200" as advised value (system default is 2908!),
after changing you could hit it with a hammer and nothing.
Managed to set is back to recommended value 9000 using MyMobiler app and all problems gone.
See also HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel\PressureThreshold
sys default is 18866, I use now 19866 and I'm happy

I got the same problem, I wanna to install "My Mobiler" but due to the screen is locked, I can't continue the installation, any help ?

well as far as I see here (forgot how i installed it after previous post) you have an exe here :
http://www.mymobiler.com/downsafe.aspx
so you will install it from the pc anyways, but how will you make the confirm on where to install it (mybe if you put storage card out and there will be only 1 memory option, but you will still have to confirm installation i guess).. i wasnt able to confirm without the screen on polaris,.. maybo on some other phone

double post...mistake

I had that same screen not working problem after tweaking the phone with advanced config 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, only hardware buttons work.
Problem can only be solved by Hard Reset. Version 2.2 I think is the only one that works (not thoroughly tested though)

can somebody help me with this problem

Hello All
I have many problems with my touch pro but this is the biggest one and it is really bugging me ......When somebody calls me the screen doesnt change the phone rings and everything but the phone stays on the today screen and i have to answer without knowing who is calling me .....
This problem heppens in like 40% of my calls so plz if someone have had this problem before and did fix it .....i would really appreciate the help

That's wierd... never had this... sometimes i have lag with the caller id popping up on screen... but eventually it is showing.
Maybe you should try a hard reset?

I've had this a few times too. The buttons flash, the phone rings, but the screen just shows the today screen. It hasn't happened very often..maybe 6 or 7 times, but it is very annoying

This happened to me too...
I found out that it was a app I had installed that was cousing the problem..
(cant remember which one now... maybe S2U2? or a combination of different call apps)
Think I had to install then uninstall S2U2 again for it to work...(or other app)
check what apps you have or had...
try removing them... or installing old one and uninstalling them again..
and dont forget to softreset... (you should try that first, if u haven't done it)
Only apps that have something to do with calls... not gps, picture app and so on...

agree with above... apps will conflict with WM system. To be 100% sure (the long way) I would hard reset everything and install one app per day or 2 days to make sure that ur problem doesnt come back.. if one it comes back, u will know which app is causing this.
but that's just me.

as a comparison then with adool.
I'm running,
SPB Mobile Shell
SPB Backup
schapps advanced config 3.3
Fast Switch skins for SPB MS 3.1
Resco explorer and registry add in
and that's it!!

if i had to guess, i would guess that either Fast Switch skins for SPB MS 3.1 or SPB Mobile Shell is screwing up ur phone.... SPB Mobile Shell when u install it, there is a bug for the HTC that the task manager at the top right cornor disappears and even after u unstall SPB Mobile Shell, its still gone. the only way to get it back is to hard reset.... thats my ecperience for both Touch Pro and Touch Dual... I could be wrong but thats my guess.

Thank you all ....i have tried all of the things you suggested except hard reset just because i dont know how and i still have this annoying problem ....anyway really thank you guys for your help

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
hard reset = volume down button + center select button (center circle) + reset button (using stylus in bottom hole at bottom of phone)
press above all at the same time and wait for screen instructions.

Same issue
It's with S2u2 something in the settings I can't figure it out turned it off but I love it! It's the only way I can see my appointments.

HTC Touch Diamond Text entry problem

Hi all..newbie to this site and to smart phones so excuse the steep learning curve !
Have had the phone for a few weeks and learning lots. All of sudden yesterday when trying to make a calendar entry, the full QWERTY, compact QWERTY, and phone pad can no longer be used to enter text. It's stuck on numeric mode. Tapping the "abc" key on the bottom of the full QWERTY keyboard doesn't change anything. Can still use transcriber and full keyboard for now. BUt when switched to Note program, all entry methods work. Have not installed any new programs lately (besides a few games and new calculator). Have been using S2U2 and Diamond tweaks to help with a few other problems...Help please since this is now my primary calendar and runs my life so need to have this working again!!

you have this problem too? i have the htc diamond keyboardon my device(mwg zinc ii)but sometimes it just enter numbers only. to solve this, i tap on option and tap ok then it works fine again. most people who installed the htc diamond keyboard on their non htc device have this problem too. but this is the first time i heard of a diamond having this problem. did you upgrde to the latest diamond rom?

Yes it's on a brand new Diamond..running ROM version 1.93 dated Oct 30/2008 so I am assuming it's the most up to date one. Just tried it again now, and it let me enter on word in full QWERTY, then it automatically changed to numeric and locked me out of letters again....IT's FRUSTRATING

Ok..thought I bump this up to see if will get more attention.
Contacted HTC Helpdesk in the meantime, and suggestion was to hard reset...ARRGH!!!!
Just so I'm clear, after a hard reset, the device will turn back to factory settings, and all I have to do is sync it with my PC to bring back data, then reinstall programs that I've added, and then tweak the settings that I've already done and the phone will be back to "normal"??? Or are there things that the phone providers (Rogers) put in that won't come back after a hard reset???

this is bull****...mine is doing the same thing..and if u do a hard reset there are a lot of things that have to b reprogramed by sprint

HTC touch diamond full qwerty troubles
I have also had troubles with my touch diamond. Twice I have lost the ABC capability of the full qwerty option and the only option both times was to do a hard reset. The cell phone company could not figure out any other way to fix the problem and it did seem to fix it but there has to be something wrong with the programming to be causing this over and over again.

same as above. stuck number mode for both keyboards on a diamond.

Sometimes it has this kind of problem and when you power it on again it will work well. Everytime when I had this problems, I just power off and on. Then everything is okay. But I don't know the reason. Is that because some apps in the phone? Or the CPU is too busy to react.

KforTouchPro problems.....

Hey guys, i've got a problem. First off, KforTouchPro works fine on my HTC Touch Pro, i can configure buttons fine for Morphgear, PocketGBA, SmartGear etc, it works wonderful. And as everyone that uses this app already knows, you have to switch the setting to MS IME before you launch your game emulator, or else you can't configure the keys. Well, my problem is, after i'm done playing a game, sometimes I forget to switch the setting back to default, and whenever i do a reset or shutoff my phone, it hangs at the screen right before it shows your homescreen and touchflo3d tabs.
Basically, for those that use EnergyROM, it hangs at the screen that shows you the black & blue background with the word EnergyROM 3.0 in the bottom left (or something like that, can't remember). That means you can't do anything at all, since there are no buttons etc for you to press as the home screen is not fully loaded, so basically you got a semi-bricked phone as no matter how many times i try to turn on the phone, it just hangs there, which results in me having to do a hard reset in the end.
To prevent this, you MUST restore the KforTouchPro setting back to the default setting, but sometimes ppl forget and this will cause a semi-bricked phone, which is very risky and quite dangerous.
So, is anyone else having the same problem as me?? Is there a solution to this??
And lastly, what's the difference between KforTouchPro and KforRaphael??
