So, I have noticed that a lot of the newer roms have a discover icon flashing in the system tray. Is there a way to disable that? Its really irritating, and I like to leave bt discover on all the time.
Thanks!
I've tried looking in the forums and on google, but I havent found anything helpful
Go to Settings > Today > Items and uncheck the BT connection
This isnt on the today screen its in the tray... see attached screenshot.
The only items I have on my today screen are HTC home, battery status, resco and IM+ but none of those applications have those features, and when I have everything tunred off and just a plain today screen it still does it.
I just flashed my friends phone... turned on bt discover and the icon is there.. its so irritating what can I do to get rid of this thing!?
Thanks!

Battery Status
Have you disable tray launch in battery status?
I use the tray launch stuff from battery status, but the flashing bluetooth icon is not part of battery status. Like I said, I just flashed my friends phone and have not installed battery status yet and it still does it. I think its part of the new WM6.1 roms

It’s in the Bluetooth file sharing settings. If you select Setting>Connections>Bluetooth>FTP>Enable File Sharing (check) the icon is always flashing. I’m sure it’s some registry setting that can be modified to fix it.

For what exactly? as i said this does not appear to be related to any today screen plugins
go to start\settings\connections\bluetooth
under bluetooth go to timeout tab
you'll see "Turn off Visible mode:"
select "after 1 minute" in the dropdown menu.
wait for 1 minute & the flashing is gone in the tray.
hope this help.

Thats a timeout for discovery mode... so of course after 1 minute when discovery mode turns off, that icon will go away.

All you have to do is turn off "Discoverable".
Any Bluetooth item you have already paired with will still work, so there is no need to have discoverable on all the time, is there?

if you have paired devices no need to have the discover me on, this is only use when you want new devices to see you . . .
After searching the forums for so long I finaly found a program that disconnects Idle connections after x-time..
Even with location or auto weather/twitter/stocks turned on..
It's called CommMgrPro (CMP)..
How to:
1) Simply install the cab to your main memory.. and when promped Proces\Service ---> choose proces..
2) When asked to restart the device press yes..
3) after restart a popup apears.. (skizzo) install it to main memory..
4) when CMP asks if it should be integrated with manila say yes..
5) launch CMP from startmenu and press right softkey for menu and choose settings. Once your in settings press the profiles tab and press the right softkey (menu) choose profiles-->add
Name your profile & Description than press right softkey (menu) and hit save..
when asked to create a 24 hours time frame schedule press yess..
6) now you can go and edit your profile if you want.. I just left it the way it was..
7) Back in the settings menu choose the connections tab..
Where it says default: choose your GPRS connenction and check close Idle connections. (set the timer to whatever you like)
for example mine is:
Default: Vodafone live!
close Idle connection: 30 seconds..
8) Hit the left softkey (Close)
9) Back at the main screen you will see huge button (unknown!) Hit it!
when prompted just continue.. tap Profile and choose the profile you just created and choose no time limit..
10) tap left softkey (hide)
your done.. back at the homescreen in Manila in the top left corner you should see your profile name..
If everything is done well the connection should be terminated after x seconds..
And for me it works like a charm!!!
Also there is an other program made by the same dev named bandswitch..
Some people in this thread state that Bandswitch is more than enough to get it done So feel free to try it out..!!
You can find the files underneed...
uploaded a new version from 2.6 to 2.7...

Edit: Simply awesome. Effortless.....finally a auto disconnect cab that works.
Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic app, that's what I was looking for , thanks very much .
Hi there. I'm not an expert on this, but didn't WMLongLife already does the same things and even more? I know it's working fine on my HTC HD2, but I don't really have access to 3G where I'm living, so I can't tell if it's "really" working or not. Also, the installation process is much simpler and common...

There is an expiremental HD2 compatible version.

Thanks a lot for this man. Looks like it's working fine with many people. Thanks for your quick answer.

And you installed it on HD2? And it works?
I've tried to install, then I've soft reset.
When I go in Control Panel and execute GB-SOFT Tweak.
First of All I can't see correctly the "About" tab.
Second, after I set the timer, I can't close the app.
Any help?
Mmhh, after the second soft-reset (done by removing the cover and pressing the red button for reset) because my device locked up after using GB-SOFT Tweak, I've tried it again.
Now the app closes normally.
But I can't see it auto-disconnect after the time I've set (1 minute) for test.
Do you configured it in a particular manner?
Can you help me/us, please?
Weird...
wmLongLife never works for me [tested on my Cruise & then on my Leo].
Seems like I'll try those two cab on this post. =]
I think this app might take too much memory for the less usage we need :/
However I've installed it. The problem is that the applications main screen keeps on poping every 10 secondes when I'm using my phone. For me it's unusable. What am I missing ?
guys.. just check the first post for commMgr this one works for real..
I also noticed that the huge battery drain has been halted...
wmlonglife would be fine if it didnt have this much issues.. and also when I quickly want to look up for something it takes too long to switch from 2G to 3G.. sometimes it wont connect at all..
that's why I kept searching for something that didn't have these issues...

strange, but mine worked perfect directly..
The link from the first post is dead. I downloaded CMP directly from http://www.commmgrpro.com.
Installed like you said, set at 30 seconds and… it really works, finally indeed.
Thank you very much for your post.
Hi Guys
Any of you managed to Turn Off the Sound Effect when WEATHER is chosen as your Live Wall paper ?
I mean you can turn off the Sound Effect when you choose the Weather Widget but in the Live Wall Paper, I could not find a way to disable it it !!!
Go into Weather app ->> Menu button ->> Settings ->> Sound Effects.
Check that box and you should be good to go
EDIT: Oh, that might only work in the widget. Let me test it and get back to you
EDIT #2: Got it. Go to apply the live wallpaper in the normal way, then when you're ready to apply it, double click/tap the picture of the wallpaper. This brings up the preview of the wallpaper (red bar across top telling you this). You should see, in the bottom right hand corner, a Settings button. Tap that and you should see two check boxes, one for 'Sound'.

Get an app like Audio Manager to manage your sounds, vibration, and silent settings.
Thanks

You are the man only my second day with sensation and let me tell you that sound after every unlock had me at boiling point I never previewed the wallpaper just applied it so never seen that options bar I never post like this but had to sign up to say thank you my girl thanks you to now she don't have to hear me complain every time I unlock my phone
Sorry to bump a somewhat old thread, but I am having the same problem. I already found that checkbox on my own, but incredibly it has no effect! All I hear all day is the soothing melody of the didgeridoo, and it's beginning to become a bit closer to insanely aggravating. I'm running SynergyROM on my Thunderbolt. Anyone else have the same problem? I've tried switching back and forth, switching and resetting before switching back, etc. to no avail.
Just discovered a very annoying bug with this new OTA update. I've had it for about an hour, and everything else has been good except for this.
With the lockscreen, my first shortcut icon (Phone Dialer) suddenly disappeared. I have no clue how to get it back.
When I try to re-assign it as a shortcut, it doesn't appear on the shortcuts menu.
I'm 1,000% positive that I did not erase the dialer icon in the lockscreen edit menu.
Anyways, this is just a heads up for some of you TmoUSA people who just got the OTA update.
And if anybody has any suggestions on how to prevent/fix this, or get back my phone dialer shortcut, I'd really appreciate it.
I got the phone dialer and it did not disappear from lock screen after the update.
I think this may be an isolated incident. But wow none the less. I would suggest a wipe brother.
Wow, that sucks to know that it's just me
Not that I would wish this problem on any of you, just kinda bothers me because I factory-resetted just yesterday
It's not just you. I still have the phone on my first button of the lock screen, but if I go to edit the lockscreen buttons, the first one is now blank, and Phone is not an option in the list of available apps to assign.
As long as I don't change it, it's good...
The EVO 3D had this problem with 2.3.3 at launch. HTC sent out a minor update to fix. Expect a minor update in the near future.
I wonder if I should just install a phone dialer app from the market and see if that can be a workaround.
What do you guys think?

If you save any changes from that screen you'll lose the icon.
Really, yikes. I think I like the 4 I have there now so I'll leave it alone for the time being.
1st - Web
2nd - Phone
3rd - Gmail
4th - Messages
With all these issues I'm seeing I think ima just stick to leedroid or stock rooted. I'm playing around on my myTouch before I sale it.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA Premium App
I just got the update and yes, while I still have the Phone icon on my lockscreen, if I go to the Settings page for the screen the position is blank and "Phone" isn't an option in the list of programs to launch.
It looks like birgertime's work-around may be what you need, until HTC (hopefully) releases a fix for this.
In the mean time, I'm not going to change my lockscreen icons (not that I frequently do anyway).
Not just you. Same thing happened to me. Just got the update today.

i had the same issue, the phone (dialer) missing from menu and lock screen. I downloaded the shortcut from the link above and it worked. Thanx for the shortcut.
I just got the update and I don't have any issues with my lock screen. maybe try to change in your lock screen htc gives us like 6 to choose from 'm using the 1 that shows status updates from facebook and such.
also my wifi is working a lot better I still lose signal when I grip it in landscape mode but it doesn't lose signal completely and I can still use wi-fi even in landscape mode holding it with both hands
The workaround works great! Thanks for the help, everybody.
I was just reading this thread when I noticed that I had the same bug after changing the lockscreen icons. Will flashing a ROM over the update help?
Hi !
Happy user of the Honor View 10 since 3 months, I installed the EMUI 9 Pie Update last night.
I did not fully test my phone but I have 4 problems so far. Any help would be appreciated.
Starting from the most annoying to the less.
1) I cannot find anymoe the option "power button instantly locks" to disable it. I disabled it in the previous version (used to be in Settings > Lock screen).
2) I cannot choose anymore to close one app or another. I have no other choice to close all opened apps.
3) When I'm somewhere in the Settings, I don't go back anymore the the home screen. I need to press 2 times the central navigation key.
4) I want the default black theme back ! :crying:
One more question but nothing to do with the update: how to remove the notification when the phone lose and get back the carrier signal (2/3/4G) ?
Thanks for your help.
Chris

Care to share with others? Maybe someone else has the same problem.
I already have created a thread with a similar name, so its better to discuss these issues there so that the things stay in one place
for locking an app from clear all button, just swipe it down to lock the app from clearing.

Correct. Swipe up it close the App (Swip down the App is locked and won't close close if you press the trash can. Swip down again unlock).
