Hi @ll i just bought a samsung bluetooth headset for my diamond and i already have a problem with it, it seems to be on my diamond self
whenever i use the headsets controls to forward track/ skip etc it wakes up the phone, and thus also the touchscreen, in my pocket
quite irritating
is there a way to fix this?, is this a known issue and can i return my headset based on this flaw ?
or must i wait for HTC to make a fix of some sort :S
same problem!
I have the exact same problem and know a friend of mine does as well.
If someone could fix this incredibely annoying issue... that would be GREAT
sooooooo, someone? pleeeaaaaassssssssssssssse!

it`s really a searchin` thing
sensor lock is fine and all, but this doesnt eliminate the problem that the display turns on and uses up the allready weak battery...
exactly.
And I don't want to be rotating my phone everytime I want to do something with it (tiny hands)... the thing will probably drop.
i "found"that igo navigator 8 has the same issue when minimised
i can deal with igo, because the safe mode setting disables touch screen
I've solved the problem. It's one key in the registry. But I'm not really sure which one, because I've changed a lot of them.
I think, it's this one:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone\sleep] change to "1"
after this change, the phone will stay sleep as usual
So does anybody have a fix for this yet?
ps. the regkey doesn't exist in my phone.

Hi to all!
I have a strange problem with my HTC s710.
I bought it a month ago and it worked fine for a while, then it started to shutdown the display. Then it appears again, and the it turns off... it continues to work, but you can see nothing because the display turns off.
It's impossibile to use it. The HTC customer care sended back my phone after having upgraded the software but the problem is still here.
They wrote: "upgraded software and no problems found" but it's not really true.
I can't use the phone because the display turns off while i'm using it...
i tried to hard reset it several time without results.
Please, help me...
I would take it apart, clean the contacts and make sure it is seated properly. Does it happen when you're not using the device? Say if it's sitting on the table will the display flicker?
Unfortunately this is a very common problem with the S710... Since so many people are experiencing this issue with their phones even after hard resetting & changing roms I strongly believe it's a hardware issue.
It's not s710 only, even the microsoft emulator also have the problem
Look in the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Power The Dword-key "Display". It sets the seconds for display timout. It overrides every other setting!
It happens while i'm using the phone...
for example, if i'm writing an sms, it suddenly turns off the display... then i have to wait for a while and the it appears again... and this go on for all the time...
same problem to me.... dunno what the source of the problem is
guess gonna have to take it back and ask for refund
i've already send it back to the HTC customer care and they said there is nothing to do because it works fine... (oh my god!)
I think it's an hardware problem...
Display blackout
I got the same problem too, did rom upgrades but no success, it s**ks
Its an intermittent fault.
Should someone identify the problem pls let me know !!
This is almost sure a connection problem of the Flex-cable between upper and lower part of the device. Search related threads here or on MoDaCo.
s710 display issues
Hi Guys,
This is not a LCD or flex issue, neither is it a connection issue.
The actual fault is the display driver on the main board, it seems to be an intermittant fault.
please post your findings on this topic....
bro am also havin the same problem but they say it seems to replace the board which costs 9k... hw can i fix this problem pls help me i bought this stuff for 17 k...

What makes you so sure it is not HW related? The only thing that really changes over time is the HW (as you slide in/out the keyboard, move the device etc.pp) - SW stays as it is and if even ROM reload does not fix it, well I feel rather sure it is HW.
Anyway, hunting intermittent faults is hard to do and you may construct a causality from just coincident events - no fun nailing this down.
any solution for my problem..?
I have had so many power related issues so far. Sometimes it is the battery, sometimes it is the charging connector, sometimes LCD and sometimes even the whole circuit board.
When i had the same problem relating to intermittent off displays, I got it repaired in the warranty and they had to change the main board. I dont think there is any other solution to your problem!
Display failure
The failure of the screen is not the problem on my Vox. My screen always jumps back to the Home screen. Even while writing an SMS or scrolling in the application menu. Is there a possibility that there ever comes a Dutch version for my Vox?
It happens to me also. I tried to open the device, take everything apart then mount everything back. The problem stays. I tried hard rest, ROM flashing, soft reset, changing settings etc etc etc... The problem is still here.
Then, I left the mobile without using it for 6 month or so. I am using it again and the problem doesn't happen so often but still happens. Any news on this matter?
I solved this problem because my device was still under warranty: I had to get back it to HTC four times before to fix it.
They changed me three motherboard and finally it seems to work fine...

And what is supposed to happen after that? Also, I guess we have to open again the phone to find this switch because I can't see any switch otherwise. Can you please post a picture of it?
Hi,
If I use the hardware keyboard (ie the one you slide out) in TomTom 7 it adds a weird character at the end of each letter, so for example if I write:
"New York"¨
It will appear on screen as:
"Nåeåwå Yåoåråkå"
Anyone have that problem and know how I can solve it?
I get it it tomtom 6 too, some peeps on here have had issues with it representing the same charater no matter what button is pressed in several different programs
yep, I get the same in TT7.
I get the same problem with TT7.... would be keen know if anyone has a fix.
yeah, I have that as well... very strange indeed...
Maybe someone comes with an answer...ya never know...
I use Tommy 7 btw...
+1 same here, pain in the ass so i just use the onscreen
I had this problem at one point but I don't now. I've been trying to think how i got rid of it.
I definatly installed the following patch http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?Language=1&FID=9852 other than that I played with the keyboard settings in tomtom and WM 6. Not much to go on, I hope it helps.
This seems to be a problem with the key assignment of the hardware keyboard, it behaves strange also in other applications. I solved it using the reg hack from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425646
Unfortunately, problems with auto-screen rotation appeared on my device.
i have the same problem, i found that KforTouchPro (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425646&page=4) can be use to fix the problem
I tried to install this great piece of soft, Touch In Call Screen Tweak, because I am not totally satisfied with the way the HD2 manages the backlight during a phone call.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488991
Sadly, for some reasons it seems that Touch In Call Screen Tweak does not work on the HD2.
Did someone try? Any idea to make it work?
thanks...
Sorry but in what way are you not happy with the way the HD2 handles the screen during a call?
Surely what Touch In Call Screen Tweak tries to emulate using the G-Sensor etc. the proximity sensor does effortlessly on the HD2. I really don't see what you would want to install Touch In Call Screen Tweak. Unless I am missing something?

Richard,
Because I think that Touch In Call screen is far more efficient:
- The HD2 only uses the proximity sensor, whatever the position of the device,
- Touch In Call Screen combines the proximity sensor AND the G-sensor.
I am using my HD2 a lot, and sometimes during the phone call I touch the screen and enter in the Menu by mistake. The HD2 system does not work all the time.

I have not experienced any issues yet with the proximity sensor and knocking menu buttons.
I also didn't realise the software could use the proximity sensor as I thought it was designed around devices like the Diamond & HD which don't have proximity sensors.
I find that If the phone is away from my ear then I would ussually want the screen on. Not sure how it handles the screen when using speaker phone though.
Touch Incall screen tweak doesn't use proximity sensor, it uses the g-sensor and the light sensor to emulate what a real proximity sensor does.
I haven't used it on HD2 but previously I've found it difficult to set up because of confusing wording in program settings. So I wouldyousuggest that you try to fiddle with them a little more.
On a side note, while TICST is just an attempt to emulate the real sensor in HD2, it has an option to keep screen off while using headset, which is something I'm badly missing now...
Hi, anybody knows how to change the settings of incall screen off on HD2? My HD2 don´t dim the screen while i cover the proximity sensor during a call.
Is there any menu or registry setting?
Touch screen stays on during call (phone by ear)
I have the same problem: my touch screen stays on during a call when I have the phone by my ear. I have this since I upgraded to the official HTC 1.66 rom. Anyone experiencing this as well? Any solutions? Help would be appreciated...
Hi. Same here. My screen stays on as well. Did someone got a solution?

nosh10, that's interesting. Which cooked ROM did you flash, and did it solve the problem of the screen in call? Besides that, does the ROM work well, or does it cause other problems?
I have the same problem as everybody else here, using stock ROM 1.66. Screen doesn't turn off reliably in call (sometimes yes, other no), leading to push buttons, hang up call, accidental conference call with Australia, China, and US .

HI,
just looking for some *.cab or tips to lock the HTC HD2 screen when i receve or make a call...
U know, several times the call ending because just touching the screen with my hear... so, i've tried some tips like cab to render the screen less sensitive, but is not working nice.
My last experience was good with Inesoft Phone v.6.05.cab, this suite can manage many thinks and for me the nice one was this one (can lock the screen when receve a phone call) Because most of the functions aren't useful for me i have uninstaled, also drain% LOW my battery very fast...
Well, anyway, i just wana know first if some ppl get same problem about this like me, after folded many threads here, i never see somone talking about...
Yes i've see about screen sensitive problem report but not when making call or answering...
Thank you for ur opinion ur suggest and may ur solutions...

ugh i have the same problem dude. the lockscreen doesnt lock during calls for some reason. well it locks then unlocks randomly. people suggest using s2u2 but it looks like sth from iphone and i dont like it. theres also pocketprotector but its paid and i cant be bothered paying 15$
I've got the same problem and searching for a .cab.
Incoming calls often ending when I pull the phone out of my pocket
Pocketshield should work for you. You can lock the screen and protect the hard press keys as well when recieving calls. It has many other features I have found handy as well. Their is a free demo you can download from their site. I love the proximity sensor...I leave it locked and when I pull it out of my pocket it automatically unlocks.

Isn't there a proximity sensor in HD2 already? The purpose of the sensor is to disable the screen when approaching to your ear, so it cannot end the conversation accidentally.
I have the same problem and it has been discussed on here before.
Seems to be an issue with light entering the proximity sensor. I cut people off and the keypad starts dialling when I go outside or enter bright sunlight and my head isn't covering the sensor properly (at least that's what seems to happen).
afaik the proximity sensor has nothing to do with light... the fact that the screen turns on i think it's a bug... for me it never turns on when speaking if i have my phone by the ear... instead sometimes the screen turns on when making a call and it starts ringing in the earpiece and again when the other part answers...

yes there is a proximity sensor in the HD2, but this one for me is never working in regard of this problem, working wel only when i receve a call to diminue the sound from the ringtone when approching the phone, nothink else...
bye
Your right this is another think. light and sensor working in different way for this problem.

you really need to RTFM... what has to do the proximity senzor with quiet mode (volumes drop when you pick up the phone from a table or somthg)?.... that is triggered by the g-sensor...

Hi guys, I've a problem with my HTC HD2.
When I make or receive a call the screen turn off and I can't do anything, I can't use the speakerphone or keypad, nothing at all.
If I want to close the call I must unlock the phone and hang up by navbar.
I've searched on web and I found many thread in relation to my problem; I've tried many solutions to resolve it but failed.
I've also disabled the light and proximity sensor but it didn't work. The problem still remain.
I've forgot to say that I changed the main flex and the display of my HD2 because the originals was damaged. Until now I never had any problem, it all started with the new pieces.
I tought that if the sensors were damaged the screen shouldn't become black when I answer or when I start a call, am I wrong?
Another thing, I've just inserted headphones in the phone and made the call from another device: the screen remains on and I can use all the commands without any problems. What could be the problem?
I hope someone can help me to find and resolve it.
Ps: I apologize if there are mistakes in my english but it isn't my mother tongue.
