Annoying Lock Screen - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

if i try to slide right after pushing the lock button, it doesn't response rapidly. I have to wait one second to slide the slider. Is there any way to get rid of this delay? I want to slide right after pushing the lock button

I have tried tommy's fix and heartwolf fix however they didn't make a big difference.
Any suggestions?

This has been there since the introduction of the new lock-screen that came with wm 6.5. As far as i am aware there is no fix. The tommy fix mentioned does not work for me. i just live with it, but if it bothers you try s2u2 that has no delay.

i wonder how is it fixed in s2u2. can't we the delay fix only?

I did notice when i used s2u2 slightly higher battery usage. So maybe it has something to do with the device coming out of a power saving mode. I have also tried the htc mini hd lock-screen. But that suffers from the same delay. Hopefully it will be fixed by ms.

It is a bug on the touch screen driver, it takes more or less a second to actually start detecting touch. Will happen with any (touch)lock screen. However in Pocketshield you can opt to use automatic unlocking (with proximity or light sensor), this way you don't have to wait for the touch screen.

Disable touch screen when called

Is it possible to let your touchscreen stay disabled when you're being called until you press some hardware button? I'm really annoyed by picking up my phone in my pocket. Is there some kind of program doing this?
Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem. Sometimes the phone freezes when touching the screen when I get an incoming call. Then I have to soft reset the phone in order to use it again. So if there is a way to disable the screen when there is an incoming call it would be perfect.

Thanks for the help but no luck for me, the bar doesn't lock the answer and the ignore buttons when being called, I tried adding the registry settings but it seems there is a flaw with this program, also when turning your screen on it shows the unlocker which is annoying...
I'm now playing with S2U2 but I don't think it's gonna work out.
Little bump.
I use PhoneScreenLock. It locks the touchscreen while calling and unlocks when ending the call.

Touch Screen Problem

I just bought the Fuze. The screen looks awesome. However I am having a problem where the touch screen is very unresponsive. I find myself having to tap the screen two or three times to get it to react. For example, I have to tap the Windows icon a few times before the menu opens. I also find that pressing harder on the screen with my finger or stylus makes it react a bit better as well. I shouldn't have to press that hard however. I never had an issue like that on my Kaiser.
Was wondering if anyone else has this problem. Could it be an unoptimized OS or video driver? Any way to adjust the sensitivity of the touch screen? Basically, I want to know if this might be an OS issue vs. a hardware issue.
I hate to return such a nice phone because of how unrepsonsive it is.
BTW, I am using ROMeOS v1.4.
Thanks for any inputs.
Its probably not defective in anyway. The fuze screen is a resistive screen, not a capacitive screen (the iPhone), so you do need to press a little harder. You can install the advanced config app and/or the TF3D customizer app to change the screen sensitivity. I have it on my fuze and it does make quite a difference.
FYI you need .NET compact framework 3.5 in order for advanced config to work

Thanks for the reply. What setting did you use?
I just use the TF3D config with performance setting #4, which is the screen sensitivity one, I believe. I find that to be the best setting. The other thing you might wanna try, even though it may seem obvious, is realign the screen. that could cause some problems.
Screen Not Responsive
my screen has become unresponsive over 75% of the time. same w/stylus or finger. already adjusted sensitvity through Advanced config tool, and Diamond tweak. try to re-align screen, and most of the time, screen does not even recognize the taps. This happened on previous one I exchanged. HELP ! !
Do you have a screen protector on your device?
I noticed that my Touch Pro was very unresponsive until I got rid of the stock screen protector and used it bare-screen
Try the second cab in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469865
It drastically increases sensitivity for our pleasure--i felt that it does a better job than TF3D and Advanced Config. There may be an issue with your ROM--my old Tilt would lag on me dependent on the ROM even when the programs installed were identical. Currently using NATF's.
Screen Not Responsive - fixed
Wow ! !, I never would have thought it was the screen protector. I took it off, and it works great. thank you to TehPenguin. maybe it needs to be changed more often, or use a different brand.
That, was my second guess...but seriously, try the cab...
If you're using a snap=on case that can also cause the screen to stop responding. I was using a very cool looking red snap-on case I got from ebay. I got home from work today pulled out my phone to do something and it was completely unresponsive. I finally took off the case and it worked fine.

TouchLockPro G-Sensor problem with HD2?

I tried TouchLockPro.
It seems that it cannot read the HD2 G-Senor properly. From time to time, it gets the correct orientation, but most of the time its doesn't sense any changes. For example, I flipped the phone around (using the movement defined by the default setting) more than five times and I succeeded in unlocking only once. Is anybody else using it?
Everybody happy with the G-Sensor in Touch Lock Pro? I have no idea why it isn't working on my HD2.
No, it doesn't work reliably on the HD2. I tried it for a few days previously, and sometimes, it would become impossible to unlock, using G-sensor, Vol down/up or even the light sensor. So, I've uninstalled it.
I've been using it for a couple of months now and I've not had a problem. Seldom does it not respond first time when I get the gesture correct. It never fails to respond to the volume control. My only problem with it is that it clashes with Throttlelock after going into standby so that I have to remove the battery.
and i have no time when it responds correct;y...almosy everytime it mess up everything, so i am back to standart lock-by pressing the end key

Volume control? How does it work in TouchLockPro?

With default settings it will unlock by pressing Volume Down followed by Volume Up.

Ah! This is not listed as one of the ways to unlock (2.4 how to unlock) so I never knew that it was possible.
TouchLockPro on HD2 does not disable buttons in call
Hi, I cannot configure TouchLockPro to disable my hardware buttons when receiving an incoming call. I have switched on the Telephone API but still I can answer incoming calls using a button, which I try to prevent. I have played with the option of thye TAPI configuration screen without succes. What am I doing wrong? Who owns a HD2 and have it working and want to post the correct settings? Thank you.
regards, Danny Groeneveld
I have a Touch Pro2, and I have my G-Sensor set to unlock on upside-down, Portrait, upside-down, Portrait. What I've noticed is that it makes a difference HOW it gets down and then back up. For instance, it works fine as long as I rotate the phone (it's facing me) counterclockwise down and then clockwise back up. But if I rotate clockwise down and then counterclockwise back up, it never unlocks. Doing a clockwise rotate down and back up does work just fine if it's followed by either a forward or backward flip and then back up. But two full 360 degree turns in ANY direction don't seem to work.
Fortunately, I'm right-handed, so it's working out well for me.
P.S. This is one of the best apps EVER! Thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOO much to the author for developng it!!!!

Lock Screen during calls

Greetings all.
Does anyone know of a good way of locking the screen while making a phone call? I've tried proximity sensor, which does not work on my phone. I currently have my time out setting at 15 seconds, but that does not work either. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm sick of face dialing/hanging up.
Proximity sensor does not work at all for me, either. I have been begging and begging people on the forum to help come up with a way to remove or disable the huge "End call" button, as I am constantly hanging up on people with my face.
It is the number one suckiest thing about my Hero right now.
oh, i am looking for this kind of software but found nothing
Probably one of the best "answer/hang up" functions I saw was with SIPdroid. Slide up to answer, slide down to hang up. Of course, the data service is not good enough to always use that though.....
I put the notification bar down down, but it seems almost buggy, sometimes the notification bar stays down and sometimes it just moves up by itself again.

And, then, enjoy the vibrations as you move your homescreen icons around with your face.
Why is there so much resistance to figuring out how to either lock the screen during a call or just disable or remove the stupid soft "End call" button?
Is it significantly more difficult than changing the button color or creating a ROM?

Home button is cool if you happen to only touch the end call button and never anything else. I personally called a friend and sent 4 blank texts to someone, don't ask me how....
Home button will cause as many problems. Notification bar coming down is the best way I've found....
an even better way. hold the menu button down.
the keyboard is a great shield.

I will try that one. Seems like it could work, thanks.
Well, google is my friend, i don't know why I doubted ye...
Screen Suite does it for me. The app is $1.99, but it has a setting where it automatically locks the screen on calls.
A bluetooth headset negates that problem completely......

How do you like it? I found it and it seemed kind of bloated with a lot of features I don't need. Does it eat up memory/power?
I am interested....
I don't get why you guys are having so many issues with this, my phone screen locks at the default of 30s when in calls, it has done this as long as I have had the phone.

Mine usually does. Unless it thinks I'm pressing things with my face, which keeps it awake.
That is... if my face doesn't end the call by the time the 30 seconds is up. My guess? It's probably the shape of our faces?
I just try to hold the bottom part of the screen away from my face. Once the screen turns off I've never hung up on someone.

Hmm another good one! Any keyboard presses do anything nasty? I'm on swype but I wonder if hitting the mic button on the hacked keyboard would do anything annoying.
Thanks for the tip!
My main problem is when my wife calls, and wants to talk to my son. His face is a lot smaller, and well, everything get screwed up when he uses the phone. As for the program, it does have a lot of features, but all I did was have it set to auto-lock on phone calls. I still have my default vanilla lock screen.
Lack of a both a proximity sensor and dedicated screen-off button is this phone's single unforgivable flaw.
I will never again buy a touchscreen device without at least one of these.

Navigation menu buttons are off-center

Does anyone have the same issue as me? Every few minutes, the navigation buttons slightly move to a different position on the screen, which makes them off-center with the rest of the screen. This usually happens after locking and unlocking the phone. I have tried to restart the phone into the safe mode but the issue is still present there. I have even contacted Sony support.
My oled TV does this to prevent burn in. Maybe check the display settings to see if it is such a feature?
Not sure, I cant find anything like that in display settings. I have also tried to change the minimum screen dpi in the developer settings and it fixed it right after the change, but as soon as I lock and unlock the phone, the buttons are off-center again.
This is a feature. It moves them over time to avoid burn in.
Ok thanks. But if this is a feature, it's pretty annoying, as it's very visible at times. Why aren't the buttons rather changing their size a bit instead? It would be less noticeable then moving them from side to side.
Nevermind, I have disabled the dock and I can't notice it anymore ?
