I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE. Rooted but otherwise stock.
I've read a couple of posts where people say the phone doesn't hang up when pressing the RED button. My problem is different.
When I make a call if I stay on the call screen, I don't have the problem, I can hang up when done.
When I make a call and wander away from the call screen, either hitting home or task manager and switching tasks, when I come back to the phone to hang up (by pressing the green phone icon, bottom left) the screen I'm returned to is different, and doesn't have the RED hangup button.
Basically instead of having the in-call screen (Add call, keypad, end call, speaker, mute and headset buttons) it has the ready-to-call screen (numbers, Green dial, yellow email and back arrow).
I try everything to get back to that screen, but the only way I can hang up is to power off the phone. Rather serious. Help please.

If you navigate away from the call screen, then you have to pull down the notification bar and press Phone. This will bring you back to that previous call screen.

is there a program or something that I can lock the screen with one finger,
to lock the screen I have to hit the White button and the End button at the same time..
I tried hitting the white button twice and trhen the End and it does not work.
is there a program that I could just use to hold the "OK" button or something like that.
ideas, ??
thx

If you set keyguard to "when power is turnoff"
Then when you push the red button (end) the screen will go black, with keygaurd on - Locked.
Is that what you want.
well.. not really..
the reason i want to be able to lock the phone wile in a phone call. the red button will hang up the call.. so what I do is hit the Solid white button and then the Red button, thats fine, but its hard to do when on a call.. and I don't want to disable the touch screen when on a call because sometimes with my BT Headset I use it. and it can't be re-enabled .. (if there is a way I would love to know about it)
thanks.

Is it possible to disable the "hold" feature on the call status screen? I'm left handed and every time I pick up a call my face touches the screen and puts the call on hold.
Or can i change the HOLD button's position on the keypad?
Call Status Features (When i make a call):
Speaker On Mute Hold
Note Contatcs End
Thanks!
Haha, funny, but I want to find the answer to this too. I sometimes End the call or press Speaker On when it touches my face.
try to find caller from forum Development and Hacking with somethig like a slide locking features off caller... i think it's from opal but i dont relly sure
Easiest, since it's a built-in feature, is to press the power button before raising the phone to (and touching) your face. This will turn off the screen, making it impossible to touch any of the on-screen buttons AND will NOT disconnect your phone call. Using the red end-call button to hang up will cause the screen to automatically come back on so you can continue using your device. If you need to use something on the device (contacts, calendar, etc) while still on the call, press the power button again and the screen will light back up - all without messing up your call.

The dude has the answer. Nice!
Is there any way to end the call by pressing the power button?
I don't know of a way to do that. But, I also can't think of a situation where that would be beneficial. If you are using the phone directly, as soon as you move the phone away from your face on the screen there is a big red button. If you are using a heaset they all have buttons on them to end the call.
What is the situation you are experiencing where the power button would be more convenient than the onscreen button, or button on heaset?
Iv just came from the I phone and was use to pressing the top botton.
which will end the call and blacken the screen with just one button. instead of pressing to end the call then turn off the screen.

Hi all,
there's something strange or some I'm missing about this simple function. I'm used to my old Gear Fit functionality that turn off watch screen and vibration if I refuse an incoming call by pressing any phisical button... with GS2 smartwatch is not the same: pressing home button just stop vibrating on incoming call, but screen still remains lit , is it intended and there's any way to let it turn off when incoming call is manually refused?
Thanks all for support.
When I place a call, I have like 1-2 seconds to press the speakerphone button before the dial-pad slides up over the button. That's way too short of a time and causes me to have to click the "X" to close the dial-pad, so I can see the speakerphone button then press it.
Very bad UI - there is plenty of room to display the dialpad and commonly used functions like the speakerphone, etc.
So, is there any mod/setting that would prevent the keypad from automatically covering all the other buttons behind it after 1-2 seconds of a call connect?

Dial pad does not (re)appear uncommanded on my stock device. Something else is triggering this behavior.
I think I know what happened...
If I dial a "contact", then the dialpad does not automatically pop-up.
But if the dialpad is showing, and I tap and hold on the "1" key to call my voice mail, the dialpad will disappear, then the options buttons appear (including the speakerphone button), but as soon as my phone connects to voicemail, it pops-up the dial pad and covers up the speakerphone button.
I can sort of understand why it might be doing this (because you'll probably need the dialpad to interact with voicemail), but often I like to listen to my voicemail on speakerphone, and just a 1-2 second window to tap the speakerphone button before the dial-pad appears is not enough time.
