Sorry for the slightly researched question but I didnt find anything,,,,so I have the Tmo Leo and I want to change the slider answer thing app on my phone... is this possible? Really I dont like sliding to answer and for some reason my green phone button doesnt answer calls I always have to slide to the left to answer.... How can I get rid of that and aslo make my green button answer calls???
your green button should answer calls when pressed, thats how i've been answering my calls lately. you might have a busted button. unless you installed something that changed the action of the green call/send button.
Are you talking about when the phone is locked or when the phone is active?

Try flashing to a different ROM if you can't answer by pressing the green button. If you still can't then I'd ask Tmobile for a replacement.
Nope my green button doesnt answer, Ive tried. And im talking about when the phone is active. Also I havent flashed any rom previously.. Im still on the stock tmous rom. But I did flash the hard SPL. I just havent figured out which ROM to use yet. I think maybe elegancia's but idk yet.
Ok so I started effin around a bit and flashed this rom: [ROM][06/06/10]HD2 CORE CELL EVO&PRO V1[21903 & 23569] TMOUS [Leo 2.13]ONLINE
its freakin awesome!!! I guess ill troubleshoot my annoyed issue later until I fully learn this rom
i dont know if i just noticed it today or not...but after updating to di07, when you goto "about phone" and try to update anything like firmware or prl etc, the 3g will disappear and it will just keep searching but nothing happens until you hit back button...then the 3 g comes back? anyone else have this issue or has it always been like that? this is doing it on both of my epics.... and both have di07.... i coulda swore it worked in dg27??
also, i did notice the screen is darker as mentioned by others.

It has always been like that whenever you update the settings and it is not an issue. I don't think this is a necessary thread to open, because this topic has already been discussed. People have been saying that the screen has gotten dimmer after the update. I noticed it a little, only with auto brightness on. Who cares? It saves your battery life.

my main concern was not about the screen, i was just throwing it in there. i was just wondering about the update thing where the 3g icon disappears...i had always thought that when you update whatever on your phone, the 3g stays since it needs to have internet access to update??
I have a galaxy s2 skyrocket, and i've been tinkering around with it a lot, and actually bricked my phone once by loading an ics kernel that totally locked my phone, luckily i was under warranty, and att replaced it for about 12 dollars (shipping).
I am now running cyanogenmod 7.2, with this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398512
I originally had a problem with auto rotate but that kernel fixed that. I Had a problem with in call volume and it drives me nuts. i can make and receive calls, but i can't hear the other person and the other person cant here me, so i assume its not the service, it must be the rom? HOW CAN I HAVE A PHONE THAT CAN'T MAKE CALLS?? i am about to pull out my hair, truely i appriciate any posts. thanks in advance
For skyrocket the cm7 is little buggy. SO you need to have GPS on all the time, this will get you in call voice back. Just enable GPS and reboot your phone and you will be good. And next time make sure you post ur questions in Skyrocket Forum. Over there you will see quick response.

I did set gps on, as i saw in another forum. still no volume on my calls! I used version one origionally, but then updated to version 4 (as i said before) ,by the way, what should i do about swype, that i cant live without?
Hi,
Has anyone found a solution to prevent unlocking this weird thing by touching settings or notifications? I don't really get the idea of things that work while screen supposed to be locked. I know I could use pin/pattern/face lock, but it'd be easier to disable this "feature".
Cheers
i feel ya brother !!!
But to be honest the chances of sliding the notification bar all the way down, tapping the tiny settings button in the top right corner and accidentally wiping your device, all whilst the phone is in your pocket, Are actually quite slim lol
I wouldnt worry about it too much
If chances are so "slim", why the hell my handset calls people or runs camera while pocketed? I only hope AOSP/CM9 development will start rolling once kernel source released.
woah! seriously ?? Damn thats bad luck... lol
Ive been on these forums since day one, I can honestly say ive never met anyone else with the same issue.. Neither has it ever happened to me!!
Do you have skin lined pockets ? lol
perhaps you could try a different launcher ? or a new lockescreen, there are a lot out there, some even look like sense lockscreens...

Access to the notification/status bar is a feature in AOSP Android 4.0, not just HTC Sense. So I don't think AOSP will help you here. CM9 might have an option to customise this if you are lucky. On the other hand, chances of seeing CM9 on our phone look distant at the moment to say the least.
Well, according to HTC's response, they will release a kernel source 90-120 days after product went on sale. They have already provided sources for One X and V.
this actually helps me when my rings being buggy
this is an ics feature meant to allow people to quickly see/go to notifications. maybe try a third party lock screen?

When the power button on my Desire was messed up, it was very sensitive to being pressed and frequently turned the screen on in my pocket. Several times I had pulled the phone out to find it unlocked and having done a bunch of things without my knowing.. sometimes quite humorously.
My point being that pockets, along with a surprising amount of other things, can be used successfully on capacitive touch screens, including unlocking a phone.
Although I had known about this "feature" in ICS, I haven't been thinking about it.. So I hope MIUI (my personal favorite) and other roms will have a way to disable.. The One S will be my first ICS device.
I used a custom lockscreen on my DS that had ability to turn screen on with any button. There was multiple times that I changed the volume without taking the phone out of my jeans pocket (which turned the screen on of course) and the screen got unlocked somehow and called or texted random jibberish to random people
Was it an app custom lockscreen or built-in the rom?

If it was meant for me then it was an app - Widgetlocker.
Started having display problems earlier last month. When i press any of the keys to turn the screen on, sometimes the screen would stay off and the buttons on the bottom of the screen would light up. If i pressed the power button again the button lights would turn off.
I would have to wait several minutes or often times pull the battery for the screen to turn on again.
I deleted ALL apps I was running and it still happened
I then decided maybe it was my ROM/Kern. so I wiped everything and flashed Pac man.
Still had the same problem so I decided I would go back to stock and attempt to lock the bootloader.
This is where my phone started acting like a 7 year old child.
In download mode the screen would stay black, but when i plugged it into the computer it showed up. even in Odin the ports would show up.
So in all my infinite non wisdom I decided to blind flash. All was going well until the end where instead of "PASS" it said reboot and kept ground hog daying on me.
then the reboots stopped. and the awesome "PASS" words showed up with a green background on odin. SUCCESS...
NOT! what a tease!
I cant get into download nor recovery mode since my screen doesnt turn on. When I boot I hear the stock boot sounds etc but the screen wont turn on nor will the buttons light up.
I've read numerous reports on the S3 just black screening on people (makes me wish I kept my galaxy nexus instead)
Now before I call in for warranty (i dont believe the phone is bricked?) will it matter if my bootloader is unlocked?
in all honesty I believe this issue is from the phone and not me flashing roms etc. but most of the members on here are much brighter and more aware of these issues so I'll let you guys decide.
Anyone else hear of this issue or am I the lone ranger here?
Thanks in advance everyone :good:
holllyyy bejesus! the screen decided to do what its supposed to do for once.
But this time the 7 year old child is deciding it wants to stay in the
"4G LTE" verizon rave party light show boot up animation forever.
