I don't know when it started but I no longer have in-call Volume Control. Pressing up or down on the volume buttons causes the Syste/Ringer Volume Control to come up but not the single Volume bar. I don't know how I could have lost that. I am using the stock AT&T ROM and I have TF3D turned off to just use WinMo 6.1.
Also, I did do thorough searches for this to not be redirected to the sticky. I'm sorry, but I couldn't find anyone else with this issue.
Thank you guys!
If you're using a different dialer, sometimes the HTC volume control will cause that.
I'm on WM6.5 and I use the stock WM dialer and disable the HTC Volume Control (if the ROM I'm using has it cooked in).
I just realized something that may have made a difference.
I used Diamond Tweaks to switch the Volume Control from HTC Touch to WinMo because I can't stand the HTC one. It didn't actually change at all so I switched it back. That may have been around when this happened.
I have now found a thread that talked about how to disable HTC Touch Control by changing the registry key. But now my keyboard has gone to Courier. Not a big deal.
Could that have been it? Could Diamond Tweaks have caused it?
It could be. I think it comes down to a combination of dialer and HTC Volume Control vs WM Volume Control.
Interesting, I also changed the HTC dialer to the WinMo dialer. I just really can't stand the HTC stuff, it's sluggish, I don't personally think it looks so great. I like the Microsoft interface. It's less flashy, sure, but it's functional and clean.
So you're saying my combination of WinMo dialer and HTC Volume Control might have caused the disappearance of the HTC in call Volume?
I phone was stock and it still did it after i unlocked it
but i not sure its from the unlock i never got to us if before i unlocked it
some i need to disable the htc control???

Loving my new Cruise. Upgraded to the latest Bebe WM6.1 ROM. Everything is flying along wonderfully and I couldn't be happier. Except for one problem. Every time I take or make a phone call, my in-call volume gets reset to 5/10. I've gone through my registry settings and they are no different than any other WM device I've had in the "sound categories" and "volume" sections. It's not a big, big deal, as I am now in the habit of clicking the volume rocker up right after answering a call..... but it's still something I'd be curious to know whether anyone else is experiencing. Thanks!
Firstly - hello all! What a great forum, I've gone from knowing nothing about Windows Mobile to having a fully customised Raphael in about 48 hours!
But: I have a set of Motorola S9 Bluetooth headphones which work excellently (although I haven't yet made or received a call using them). I also have a Sony a2dp Bluetooth headunit which also works excellently.
However .... As a matter of course I use the one touch power button to lock/standby, and when I press play/pause on either bluetooth device it automatically unlocks the phone.
When I'm driving this isn't such an issue as I will be ordering a Brodit Car Cradle very soon. But when I have the handset in my pocket using the S9 having it unlocked is a recipe for unwanted screen presses. I use the Touch Media Player (I know it's not the best but it seems to work OK for what I want) and the handset switches to the Music screen automatically (as well as unlocking) whenever I press play/pause. So theoretically it's pretty likely that it's only the media player that will get messed with, but you never know...
So my question is: Is there any way of stopping it from unlocking like this without introducing extra locking/unlocking complications?
hi
im using the Jabra BT3030, that uses A2DP aswel, on my touch pro and my phone stays locked when i start stop use the voice dailing, changing volume or song.
the phone turns on that is true, are u sure u are using the lock function
to realy lock ure phone u have to press and hold the end call button for 2 seconds(lower right button). if that button is not set to lock u can change that in ure phone settings under settings>long press end key there u can chose lock device
i hope this helps, let me know

Yeah, I'm using SonyEricsson HBH-DS980, and for me too the phone only turns on upon play/pause etc., but does not unlock.
Have you guys had any problems with receiving/making call using your headests? I have a problem that after a few minutes into a call my headset disconnects, although BT stays on, and I have to restart the headset to re-acquire BT-lock. And it keeps doing this every few minutes. Highly annoying - renders my headset completely useless for phone calls (luckily it still rocks for listening to music).
Mine does the same. Both with my HBH-DS970 and with my HTC BT headphones. I tried the long-press end key lock which works, but prevents me from changing tracks using the HTC headset, yet the volume control works. Weird huh?
I haven't tried the long end key press to lock the device. But thats because I use that for switching on vibrate mode.
Anyone got any other suggestions?
I'm using the motorola S9 too, and my TP doesn't unlock when I press play/pause.
Note that I've installed Answerkeydisabler and Advanced Config Tool and played with locking/screen-off, and may have activate some options leading to this behaviour...

u can always set the long key to "always display the quick list" so u can chose to lock ure device or set ure vibrate ringer
also u can just use the volume keys to change ure ringer to vibrate/sound to
I am now using the quick list so it sort of solves the problem. But it still seems a little awkward compared to just pressing the power button once and not having the a2dp commands reactivating it.
Are we saying that this cant be done?
Any ideas?
When my HTC pro is locked the both volume buttons still work.
Is there a way to disable these 2 buttons when my phone is locked, the should only work if the HTC pro is not locked!
How can I change this?
good question. I would like to know as well...
a friend of mine told me, htat the diamond has got the buttons locked in locked mode, too.
2 of my working partners have both a touch diamond and they both confirmed that the button keys are turned off when the phone is locked.
you guys should check out the sensor lock app, it's free and by a peep on here, it's pretty good
this app is quite cool (sensorlock), but we just want a simple lock of the volume buttons when the device is locked by the default procedure.
sensorlock does not what i want.
I just want the default lock in wm to lock the volume keys.
So if I press the "end call" and hold it down the phone locks, it should also lock the volume keys, the on/off button should NOT be locked!
More function I do not need for locking.
It would be OK if a app does the same with a software/sensor lock function, but important is that it is enabled by long press of end call button.
Sorry no answer to your question but I agree: the fact that the volume buttons are not locked is really annoying!
volume buttons not locked
They are locked on my original Dutch T-Mobile Rom.
(and yes, I've checked that)
On my vodafone rom not, I am now runnin romeos and on this rom there are also not locked.
Note: we are speaking here about the default lock of the OS, NOT the sensorlock! So holding down the "end all button" for approx 2 seconds. The phone now locks itself and display is dimped, now all keys execpt the on/off and volume keys are locked. What I want is that volume keys are also locked.
It is possible to lock the volume keys using apps such as sensorlock, but this lock does not work with the end call button, you must rotate the phone of use the stylus to (un)lock it.
tis true. when locked, volume buttons work. when display is off, they do not
3 Australia Rom also comes with this problem. It would be interesting to know how they fixed it in the T Mobile Dutch rom.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not really, it does not what I ask
I just want: lock using hold own end key, all keys (including volume) are OFF.
This tool does not do this, if I set is using wm in lock modus the volume keys still work, all other options are not for me...
It is great that people suggest which tools to use for locking but please only suggest a tool which locks does exactly as I ask.
If anyone Finds an answer to this I would love to know as well!
yeah kinda of a big problem. I lock the phone. Put it on vibrate or silent and put it in my pocket. because of the location of the keys, it sometimes increases the volume. Quite annoying since use an mp3player where i go, i don't hear my phone (thats why i prefer to use only vibrate).
Turning the display off is a workaround that helps a bit.. but that button also works when locked (not weird ofcourse)
Nevermind, I've found the best way to get past this is after locking the phone (by holding the end call key) if you press the power key and release it puts it into "Sleep Mode" and turns off the screen. After this the volume keys cannot be used unless you press and release the power button to wake it up.
Seems to cure my problem.
any person can help me how enable volume buttons when device is locked ?
rom: ROMeOS ver.1.70.3
Hello, I have the following problem.
I'm using a HTC Touch Diamond2 with the Topaz ESSentiaL v2.2.1 ROM (German).
If I want to adjust the volume of the Phone during a call, it happens nothing. I am using the HTC Volume Control. The other 2 volumes (system and ringer) can be adjusted without any problem.
But if I press the up/down key during a call, nothing happens, not even a window pops up.
Is there any way to get the volume control working without switching back to the standard Windows Mobile volume control? Or does anyone know the registry key for the in call volume so that I can adjust it manually?
Thanks
Chris
Does nobody have an idea? Or is there maybe a CAB to reinstall the HTC Volume Control to make it work again?
Dear all,
I, maybe, have a stupid question but not able to find out the solution !
I am wondering how to change the HTC Sense default ring to accept/decline an incoming call when phone is locked or in deep sleep mode.
I find this not very user friendly to move the bubble "Accept" or "Decline" into the big ring ... I am expecting for a slider or a simple button....
Does anyone know how to modify this feature ?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Nino
There are custom ROMs where you can revert the lock screen back to the default Android lock screen, but even then you will have to unlock via a slide then accept the call by hitting a button. Custom ROMs also allow you to decline a call by pressing a volume button.
Most touchscreen smartphones don't have a simple push-button to answer or decline calls, as a single touch can be incidental and thus happen in your pocket.
Note, however, that you can either move "Accept" or "Decline" into the big ring OR move the big ring to "Accept" or "Decline."
Also if you press volume down (probably up works as well but it's what I'm used to from a previous phone) it will silence the ringing/vibration without even having to take it out of your pocket.

I either use one of the volume buttons, or the power button.

Thanks for your feedback.
I am, currently, using Elegencia ICS Rom for Sensation.
I will try to use vol up and down.
However, I was expecting a nice UI to accept/decline incoming call like the iPhone one !

Nino
