Is there a tool to manually turn off the LCD of TD2? - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

As I do not want to push the power button to turn off the LCD, I hope it can turn off the LCD by a menu. (e.g. Menu->Turn Off LCD)
By the way, is there a same tool to soft reset / shut down my TD2?
My OS is windows mobile 6.1 English, and the ROM is from HTC official.

@tarkim: Fantastic application. Thanks a lot!!
Had the same "problem". Here's how to solve it:
On the "long press" event of the power button choose to run a program and insert "\Windows\PowerOffWarning.exe" (without the quotes) as program name and as arguments insert "PowerOff" (again without the quotes).

as for the soft reset there is an application named Raiisak's soft Reset

Exactly my point too.......I don't get it.
Whey go to the trouble of pressing (like you say) start menu - turn off LCD. That takes longer......
Press the power button and the screen turns off......easy does it.....

a very good tool that is working just as you described and much more is quickmenu. turn power off, switch screen orientation, free ram and much more.
windows like startmenu

where is the Start - Settings - System Key Lock?

hi, i can't seem to find keylock application that locks all hardware buttons but power when device is on sleep mode. have you got it on yours? i had it on my old tytn II
do you have a
settings->buttons->lock ?
no. have you? i've got only Program buttons, Up/Down Control and backlight tabs there
hmm...you mean setting up a lock to turn off all keys until you hit Unlock then confirm by tapping the key on the screen?
Press and hold the "End" button and that locks the device.
It is configured under start>setting>Long key press.
MIGHT NOT be the thing you are meaning though.
no, you know when you pres power button phone goes sleep mode? there should be a setting where you can decide if you want to allow other hardware buttons wake phone from sleep or other wise.
currently which ever hw button i press phone wakes up i.e send (green) button, terminate call (red button) or action (round) button.
this is no good when phone in your pocket. a small touch to any of them wakes phone up. i thought it is standart wm option as i had it since wizard
Hmm, when i power off the only thing which will power back on is pressing the power button, opening the keyboard or removing the stylus?
I've just got a touch pro and when I power off, no other buttons will wake up the phone.
That being said, I still have my Tytn II and the Key Lock application is found under Start...Settings...System...Key Lock. The Long Key Press app is not what you're after.
It seems strange that your Touch Pro wakes up on any button push. Maybe you need to change a registry setting instead?
wierd ; on mine apart from those, any button powers it up. only config tool i used is advanced confing and there isint any setting regarding this on that tool

do you know which key i should change?
On touch Pro there is no Keylock option in the settings.
Only way how to activate the device is to:
1. press power button
2. open the keyboard
3. take out the stylus
There is no config like on the HTC Touch/Diamond.
I've contacted Julien Schapman, vendor of advanced config and asked him to add this settings to his application.
this is his answer:
Ok I will look at it when I could get a Touch Pro.
Best regards,
Julien Schapman.
So I hope his new version will have this settings. This is really missing.
But maybe someone is able to export this registry path on the HTC Diamond:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD
there should me something like
"KeyLock"=dword:1
Or maybe another. I don't know.

very cool app to unlock and lock the phone.
Tested and works on touch pro.
I'll be replacing S2U2 with this!

It should be in the \Windows directory:
\Windows\Keylock.lnk
\Windows\Keylock.exe
Create a shortcut in \Windows\Start Menu\Settings
I don't have this in my HD2 - any ideas if it can be installed seperately?
No idea as I have an at&t Fuze and this is a RAPH/TP/Fuze forum You might have better luck if you posted a link to this thread in the HD2 forum? Also, an alternative to s2u2, check THIS thread (QuickShutdown)
n-Joie! (Enjoy)

I haven't KeyLock in my ROM by default too, but I found it on another forum after many hours searching in the Internet
Unpack it and put enywhere (in example: "Windows" or "Program Files" and run).

How to perform a soft reset on Topaz

Hi,
I needed to do a soft reset, and I'm not able to perform a soft reset has i used to do in my trinity the topaz has 2 holes in the back but the stilus doesn't fit in anyone of them.

Remove the stylus
take the back off the topaz
where the stylus lies (bottom left of the back of device) there is a little red button

The Topaz is fiddly to soft reset. You don't want to keep opening the back to get to the soft reset red button. This is a pain. I use this programme. It is small, simple and does exactly what it says on the tin. Thanks to Raissak.
Maybe some will not agree wit me, but I don't find the usefulness of soft-resetting applications.
I mean if the phone is usable (i.e. not locked by an application, game etc.) you can soft-reset by pressing the Power button, tapping Yes and then press Power button again.
The problem comes when the phone gets locked by an application.
Here, I cannot soft-reset either using the Power button or using a soft-resetting application.
In this case you still have to open the back cover.

Very good point. However, I am constantly changing my programs which requires a lot of soft resetting. I am too lazy even to press the Power button and so want a small app to do this for me!!!!

One touch _ power off

POWER OFF​
Only touch that you have turned off the screen. Small and useful software for two versions : Blue & Red Power icon.​
Little confusing. Is this for turning off device or screen?
screen, I think...
yep it is working fine! that was the only thing i had missing on my homepage.
Many thanks for the cab
I installed the red button cab and cannot find any app anywhere.
It ain´t in the start/programs.
Also did a softreset.
How to add?

well if you are adding a shortcut in your homepage...clickon programs and then should be there under power off
Hi,
screen off can be done by pressing one key
But real power off for the hole device would be an improvement because now you need to press long and then choose shut down
any plans to offer that funcionality to the good looking red button
Cheers

You're quite right, there seems to be a problem with the app.
If you leave it with me I will try and find an alternative.

Tried to get xdaShutdown v1.01 working but it appears to have exactly the same problem. I've added a post on DaveShaw's thread to see if he can offer support for the TG01, which he has suggested he may look into.

Afternoon all,
I've created a cab file which overwrites the standard PowerOffHint.exe in the windows directory with a copy of JWMD Phone Reset version 1.2b.
What this means is that when you perform a long press on the power button of your TG01 it will now load JWMD Phone Reset application, which has the added option of resetting your device.
Kindest regards,

Hi
I dont get whats the advantage of the app.
If I press the Power on/off button short-> Stand by. press it longer-> "off button" appears on the display, and if I press further on till the vibration starts->soft reset.
I got that on every rom (standard 6.1, 6,5; novembers, ffboys,...) till now.
What did i get wrong?

Hi maxmobil201,
Thanks for your post. I'll be honest I didn't know that holding the power button in for 5 seconds reset the device, however what I have done is modified the endkey3.6 English.cab and added the options of turning Bluetooth on/off, Wifi on/off, Data Connections on/off, Vibrate on/off, Screen off, Soft reset & Shutdown which will execute with a longkey press on the TG01.
All in all you've got nothing wrong per se , however some people may find the feature useful with the extra options included.
Kindest regards,
fitzy-boy

how to turm off complety HTC Windows Mobile 6.5.3?

It drives me nuts but I can not turn off my HTC Phone with Windows Mobile 6.5???
When I long press the side button it lunches the app Slide2shutdown and when I slide the appropriate button to turn of the phone goes in standby mode, because I short press of the side on/off button turns the screen on.
I tried a lot of other apps but still no way to turn off.
Like every windows version should Windows Mobile also have some exe file which just lunches the Turn off function, but I can not find this exe file
can someone help me?
I forgot, I dont know how to uninstall slide2shutdown app, so that I can force Windows to give me the default way of turning of. It seems it is installed with windows
I need urgent help
thank you very much
Take out the battery lol
Sent from my awesome CM'd Desire
With HTC Touch HD you have to long press Power Button until a message box appear. Then you have only to press "Yes" to confirm shoutdown.

but after long press is comes only the app Slide2shutdown, no messeges. And Slide-to-shutdown doesnt shut down, only standby
I think you have installed "Slide2ShutdownPowerKeySetup_v1.1.CAB" insted of "Slide2ShutdownSetup_v1.1.CAB" so you have power button mapped.
Try to uninstall Slide2Shutdown and install the right version
where is the difference between? what means "mapped"
But slide2shutdown was pre-installed and I thought it was ols version, so I installed version 1.1.
It doesnt worked, so I deinstalled 1.1 and I still have some version of slide2shutdown installed and dont know where is it to remove it.
I tried also quickshutdown http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742008, but no success. ANd I STILL CAN NOT POST IN THE FORUM THERE TO ASK FOR HELP
"mapped" stay for: when you long press power button the App Slide2Shutdown will star automatically because the app "map" the power button key.
To uninstall application, simply:
Start -> Settings -> System -> Remove Programs
then tap on one application and press "remove"
I know that but slide2shutdown is is not listed there
Ok, on your HTC there is a ROM with Slide2Shutdown pre-installed so "I think" you can't remove it from Settings.
