What sort of sensor is used to detect whether the keyboard is open or not? Is it possible to physically 'dupe' that sensor with a piece of cardboard/dab of glue etc?
Actually, read the 'Already Done' part of this (very cool) thread. I remember seeing this a couple weeks ago. The OP used a small piece of tape to 'lock' the sensor on

thnx...
will try to do that..

wont work for me..

What did you try, exactly? I think we may be able to get this working for you, but tell me the steps you tried

i try to do this:
- Make the motorola think the keyboard is opened even when its closed.
The phone uses some kind of magnetic field i just used a small piece of tape and a thin blade and placed it behind the sreen
....just like the guy said..
and this:
First i couldnt use the phone to call when it was closed.
Then i used the app Fullscreen Caller ID and i could use the phone to call when its closed .

So where is the sensor located? You wouldn't be able to post a photo of it would you? I'll try and find a teardown when I get to work and see what we can do

this is what i see on forum...but wont work for me..
the link you send me...there is some pics...
i cant post links..

I am also having the same issue. could someone please me on this.
So far I tried using full screen caller id and shakethephone apps which helped me to answer the calls without opening the phone but for making outgoing calls all the apps finally gives control over to stock calling apps which is not allowing me to make phone calls without opening the phone.
Please help me on this.

Problems in my pocket!

Apologies if this question has been asked and answered before, but if so, could someone please redirect me. This is my first time on this forum. I've had my HTC Touch Pro (Raphael) for a couple of months now, and cannot get round the problem that whenever I receive a call, I somehow manage to cut it off before I can get the phone out of my pocket. I have tried several different cases (the current one opens like a book, so doesn't press any of the buttons), but something happens in the process of removing the phone from my pocket, however gently and swiftly I try to do it, which means that all I get is a "missed call" message, even after only one ring. If the phone is on a flat surface, it will ring for a long time, so it's not that setting. This is SO frustrating, especially when you try to see who called you, and it just comes up with "unknown caller".... it's also costing me a lot of money having to phone people back when I do know who they are. Please help somebody. I really like my little phone, but it may well end up being thrown out of a window at this rate! Thank you!
Check out this utility here on XDA. Works great. Unlock the phone by rolling it over. It uses the gravity sensor.

Many thanks for that. We've installed this thread, although I'm not really clear about what it does. It seems I can now lock and unlock the phone by turning it clockwise and counterclockwise respectively along its axis (in addition to the long press, which is what I usually use to lock the phone).
I tried answering one call whilst it was locked, but couldn't free it up to press the "answer" key until I had turned it several times. Fortunately, the caller was quite patient! Is this just a technique I have to get used to, and will it mean that I get a chance to answer calls before the connection is severed? Sorry to sound so thick, but this is all very new to me.

Go to the settings menu and edit your SensorLock preferences to lock the screen only on an incoming call thus leaving the buttons unlocked.
Maybe the "face down mute" is happening to your calls? Try disabling it.
Um..... how?
answer keys disabler
You the thread below, it disables the onscreen answer buttons while ringing. Helps me getting the phone outta my pocket when ringing

Gravity sensor... I ever seen this technology on nokia phone. but until now I'm still amazed by this technology. how this sensor works..
sorry 4 my english cause I'm from asia
Ah Dedy - if I win the lottery I shall come and throw a brand new Touch Pro through your window, I promise! I'm afraid that I'm having far too much fun with this one (despite the problems in my pocket) to part with it just yet though. Hope you have a great Christmas, and maybe Santa will bring you one, you never know!

Daxian 999+ some questions

Hello everyone i am not sure i am posting in the right place so sorry if i am not.
I have bought a daxian 999+ today from a friend but i have some questions wich he could not answer also.
1) I have seen on some video's that this phone has touch-flo. However i can not seem to activate it. The manual says:
On any screen push with your finger on the bottom of the screen and push upwards to turn on touch flo. This does not seem to work for me. Do i need to install thos feature or am i doing something wrong.
2) Every time i want to send a text message (sms) my friend his name is displayed at the bottom of the text and he has no idea how to get rid of it he says. Does anyone know how i do this without doing a hard reset.
Greetings and thanks in advance

Can anyone help me i am still facing the same prblems
you're in the wrong place... HTC didn; make that iPhone wanna be.
Had this phone too a couple of months ago and encounterd a lot of problems...
For the touchflo: Probably your friend deleted the file from windows/startup but you can get it back by doing a hard reset (don't know the name of the file anymore, that's why I suggest a hard reset)
For the text message, go to your message settings and see if he has put in a signature...
greets

HTC P-3600 and Problems answering a call

Hi to the list
hope in an help to solve me my big problem.
Often when i get an incoming call, when i go to answer the call by the green key,
i do not hear anybody.
Then i try to close the call by the red key but the call does not close and i alwasy see on the display the receiver open.
It seems the PDA becomes stuck and i need to make a soft reset.
I tought it was a problem with the radio and have changed several ones but still have the same problem.
I have also tried to change several ROMs like ELIAS and FLO and now i am using the one as in the signature.
This problem is annoying me because the ones on the other side tought that i close the call without answerin it.
Please is there anybody can give me an hand to solve it?
sure in an help, i send my best reagrds to all of the forum.

[Q] unity lock screen issues?

just wondering if anyone has had any issues with the unity lock screen when answering phone calls? I have the inspire with the latest unity rom and for some reason when i get phone calls the lock screen doesnt show up? its as if i already answered it but its still ringing and i have to end the call and then call them back
any suggestions on what might cause/fix this would be greatly appreciated as this is very irritating!
Are you saying that you don't have the answer call button showing, just the end call button? If that is what you are referring to do you also have the application from the market called No Lock on your phone? I had a similar problem and I traced it back to an incompatibility with that application on the VU rom. It messed up the system. It sounds like you might be describing a similar situation. It could be that app or another similar app.
Well the whole lock screen doesn't appear when I'm getting a phone call, I can't answer or decline it, its as if I have answered the call but its still ringing, ill take a screenshot if i can next time it happens..
Also I have go launcher installed and discovered that sometimes when i clear that as the default homescreen it resolves this, could be a similar incompatibility maybe? That's the only thing I can think of but i don't know why that would cause it

oh and also i have an app called proximity screen off so i can turn the screen off with the proximity sensor, not sure if that has anything to do with it but figured its worth mentioning
It might be. I have found that certain apps that I used to use do not behave well with Sense 3.0 roms. The only way that I found out which ones was to do a fresh install and then install one at a time and see what happens after they have been installed for a while. It was a pain but I was able to figure out a few apps which screwed up the system.
Turns out to have been the proximity screen off app

[Q] Samsung Young SM-G130HN

Hi All, apologies if this is the wrong forum.
I have bought this phone and reasonably happy with it however there is something that you guys might be able to help with. The call screen has this irritating thing called a padlock which needs to be double tapped to either end or make a call. While this is arguably useful it does prevent me from fully enjoying this phone.
Is there a way to disable the padlock for making a call or ending a call, maybe a third party app or something.
Also is this phone rootable if so can someone provide details or links.
Thanks in advance.
