Hey Everyone,
I've got a problem with slide to unlock and Touchflo 2D:
I'm using a Tytn2 with the M-Opal Rom, skinned with a diamond skin. I addition to these programs, im using Slide to unlock(1.62), skinned with a diamond skin too.
Unfortunately, everytime someone calls me, it is really hard to answer (while using S2A as well as normal buttons).
It seems to be "flickering" on the screen like a kind of overlay.
Feels like i'm just touching the symbols down below the overlayed answer buttons (or S2A slider) that has been already a problem since I used S2U2, even unskinned.
Has someboy a solution - cause every 2nd call gets missed due to the fact that i'm not able to accept it.
Best regards

Might I suggest you post in the S2U2 development thread?
Seems to me a possible issue with S2U2.

Just interested in finding out how many people are using them just to show off, or if people are actually finding use for them?
These are my observations:
Cube- hard to master getting it to flip out with the finger, and sometimes gives a lot of false positives. And using it after pressing the softkey takes too long, I would rather use HButton or some other launcher.
Scrolling- again this is hard to master.. sometimes it would scroll up when i'm actually flicking downwards... works surprisingly well at times and i found myself flicking the screen on non-touch ROMs.
Today plugin- this is ofcourse useful. But it takes too much space, and i couldn't embed it within a tab in spb diary. Also, in landscape mode its too big and leaves very little room for other plugins.
i think the cube is a POS. i've never actually used it as its much easier to do the task without messing around with it. the today plugin gives pretty much all the functionality of the cube without having to flick up left and right. the only time i've used it is to show other people how much the iPhone sucks.
and i think scrolling is very helpful. makes one handed use even easier if used with smartskey. anything possible to not use the stylus is a huge time saver.
1. Cube - dont use it much - or maybe just to fidget around...
2. Scrolling - can't live without it now - takes a little while to master it, but have stopped using the scroll bars mostly now that i can flick and scroll.
3. Home Plugin - do use it quite a bit, mostly for shortcuts to programs, photo dialling, weather.
Is there a cab which just installs the scrolling on any wm6 rom? Installing the htc home plugin slows down the device if its not built into the rom..
Nah its a Pose... OK but thats the cube only.
The Today screen is ok, especially if you use ur fingernail.
Great to show off and then tell ppl that its running a 2 year old phone,
and then iMention that iMac's iPhone is a iCon and no big deal.(Ummm actually iPhone Sux but their Media side and Batt life is sweet.)
And to wait for iPhone 2.0.0.666.
Let the .666 flame war begin. ;D
sometimes i end up playing around with the cube cause i admire how cool it is, although it's a little slow. I mostly use the top 9. I got too many contacts to scroll and I don't go on web much.
Can't live with out the touch scrolling and today plugin, but you need little mastering, but it's not a big deal.
Cube is pretty useless to me. I built a ROM without it, but with the touch scrolling and Home plugin. Trying to rebuild another ROM without it also. I don't use it and would rather use the space for Voice Command.
Currently rocking nbd 8.3. Can't live without the scroll and home screen but the cube is a novelty that quickly wears off, IMHO.
Would love to see a ROM with touch scroll and HTC home but without cube and missed calls bug. Any chefs out there listening?

You can try NBD 7.9 and just reassign the left softkey and you will have it

Almost, unless I'm mistaken all NBD ROMs (and most WM6 ROMs in general) have the missed calls bug. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
No problem of missed calls in NBD 8.3
I personally couldn't do withouth the HTC Home and the finger scrolling.
As many here, the cube is really beautiful to see in motion, but quite useless...

NBD 7.x does not have the 1,2 sec missed call bug.
Hi guys,
I agree with everyone... Htc home and touchflo rocks!!
The cube is a nice visual and for showing off, but not realy usefull.
Only if i havent set the IE launcher on the home plug i use the cube to launch it.

Really? I'm talking about the problem where the GPRS is connected and an incoming call that is not answered before the calling party hangs up does not register as a missed call. NBD 8.3 certainly does this, although I'm thinking of trying the 2.19 UK radio to see if that helps.
I use cube time to time, bt is very nice thing. iphone contacts are the best and i use them daily.No button activation is not for me.
I got the touch installed on my second MDA which I use just for GPS. It's good for showing off. No useful functionality.
What's this scrolling business? Are you guys talking about the volume side thing? Or is there another way?
where is this touch scrolling from? I've flashed a few touch roms in the past monthish but none with the ability to scroll with my finger outside of contacts
Changed my mind from an earlier post.
Touch scrolling is awesome. Now that there is a version of the Home plugin works on TMobile its great to get the weather. Also, now that the Cube can come up via a finger swipe, it is actually useful (not required). Also, changing the links on the app side of the cube is needed because most of the default ones are already mapped to a hardware button.
Hello Touch Pro owners,
I'm sure this question has been asked, and I'm sorry if it has, but...
one of the things that drives me crazy with the Hermes is the glitchy landscape view. Sometimes while in landscape, it decides to switch back to portrait, and sometimes doesn't go into landscape at all. If you were a Hermes user, you know what i'm talking about. I was hoping 6.1 would fix that, but is hasn't.
Do any of you have issues with the Touch Pro?
I surely didn't, when the keyboard was open it went to landscape and stayed there, and when it slid closed it popped back to portrait and stayed there as well. Same for applications, turn the device sideways it flips, turn it back it flips back.. Not 1 issue.

Actually, I don't; I'm still using my 8525, waiting for the "Fuze," and I don't recall ever seeing anything like that in the 19 months I've had it. I think you have a bum unit.
Have you applied new themes and customization tools (like Diamond Config)? Mine was perfect until I started applying a lot of the themes and tweaks. Now I'm having that issue. I plan on loading a cooked ROM once my travel is done. In the mean time, I have found it easier to use the virtual keyboard.
Don't think it's a bum unit, I've had a few and it's the same. I think it's most likely the shells I load. (spb and now the TF2d). I usually don't tweak and never OC the unit. But I do occassionaly load a cooked Rom, and I see the same things.
For example: I'll be emailing or texting in landscape, if I get any kind of alert, it switches to portrait and sticks there until I close it then open it again.
It's not a big deal, I've been dealing with it for awhile and still love the 8525, but Im upgrading to the Pro in a few weeks and I'm hoping I wont see this. I just expect the unit to be locked in landscape when the keyboard is pulled out no matter what shell I'm using, especially tf2d or 3d.
My phone keeps answering calls while in my pocket or while getting it out from my pocket wether it alone or in its case
so please if anyone have a solution for this problem i would be really thankfull.
Hi adool75,
Here are a few topics worth reading that should help you:
- Help: Touch Pro answers calls in pocket!
- Get the phone out of the case + Answering a call = Impossible?
- Best screen/button lock program
Personally I use PocketShield.

I had same problem, solved it with SensorLock (there are many options to disable Touch Screen)
but now I have Slide To Answer - (it's dialer like Touch HD has, not S2U2 app) ..it can be installed separately (look at Diamond forum) or it's part of ROMeOS2 1.60.2 ROM
TouchLockPro is doing the job for me.
AnswerKeysDisabler is a program which will do the job too
herg just posted the slide to answer dialer ported from touch hd in the raph software forum.. solves the problem and looks good also..

I use PocketShield too. It's not free but it's a lot more reliable than other lock apps I've tried - haven't tried Slide to Answer though, which seems to be pretty good as well.
Useful stuff I was wondering the same thing...thx
Hi guys,
I'm facing a strange issue recently.
When I've got an incoming call, my HD2 wakes up, but all I can see is the Lock screen (WM 6.5 lock).
Therefore I cannot see who is calling (hidden by the lock screen) or even pick up the call.
I did a hard reset, but the problem is still here. So I guess it comes from a third party application...
- WM 6.5.3 (Manila 1992)
- I am not using any specific locker (no S2U2 or other)
- No tweaks (no BSB, HD2 tweaks)
- WkTask
- Ameba
Does anybody face the same problem and know how to solve it?
Many thanks.

Try switching off Quiet Ring on pickup and see if it makes difference.
Steva, Sakiin,
Thanks for your help. I think the problem may come from WkTask....
I just uninstalled WkTask and it seems it works better now. I have to double-check if this was the real cause of the trouble.
Thanks.
+1 with totally different settings
I also face this problem about once every 3-4 days. The phone rings but is totally non-responsive to hardware buttons. The screen remains off (completely black). Generally this situation can be remedied by a battery removal reset.
I use different apps (many many) and lock (pocket shield).
I thought this was a pocket shield prob but now ???.
Annoying but tolerable.
Howdy
I've had my HD2 for 3 weeks now - it's got HSPL installed and I've upgraded from the stock 1.48.x rom to 1.66.421.1 (official rom).
Whenever I'm typing out an sms, either in landscape or portrait, for some reason after +-5 seconds, the text area that I'm typing in loses focus and the last sms above the input area is highlighted.
Is there any way to fix this? It's getting rather annoying albeit small. I don't recall having this issue on 1.48.x, could be mistaken though.
Its an issue I had with my old HTC Touch Cruise. It was related to an issue with the sms dll on the cooked ROM I was using. I'm suprised that HTC would put out an official ROM with this issue. Maybe its something you installed, have you tried a hard reset to see if its an issue with the ROM?
