(Sprint) Major Issues - Personal Opinion - Touch Pro CDMA

Hello all,
Here are some of the things that have been bugging me since I got this new phone.
1. SMS Wakeup. When I get a text the screen wakes up and it just starts pushing buttons while its in my carrying case.
2. When I get an incoming call, sometimes I don't want to answer it. When the call comes in I get 1/2 of a ring and the touch screen answers the call, sometimes it ignores it, but most of the time it answers it.
Any fixes for these problems?

You could try S2U (Slide to Unlock).

Wake Up on New SMS –> HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <– set to “1″ by default. Change value to “0″
The Raphael (and the diamond on 1.93) now ring and vibrate for incoming SMS, so this is not really necessary, but will turn the screen on if that’s what you want (I personally don’t).

Problems with Slide 2 Answer and incoming calls

I am experiencing problems on both mine and my wife's Fuze with any ROM that has the Slide 2 Answer. If the phone is on sleep, I can't answer an incoming call after the first ring either using the S2A slider or the hard key. I can slide the slider, but the phone doesn't answer. If I answer the phone on the first ring, or when the phone is not in sleep, I can always answer the phone.
I can always reproduce this with any Slide 2 Answer dialers.
1. Put your phone in sleep.
2. Call your phone
3. Wait until after the first ring, i.e. answer on the 3rd ring.
4. Use either the S2A slider or the hard answer key.
5. Phone won't answer, and the phone goes to voicemail.
This is on both of my Fuzes, different ROMS with S2A dialers, and yes, I have reflashed and hard reset numerous times, without installing any new software after a flash. The regular dialer works fine.
Anyone else have this problem?

I have the slide dialer in my rom. I have never seen this. The only issue with the dialer I have ever had is the delay between incoming calls and the actual audible ring starting. I can answer on any ring under any circumstance. I rarely answer before the third ring.
FYI it would have been best to post this in the software forum in one of the many dialer threads.
Thanks arup for your quick response.
I'll keep digging and see what I can find out. Weird thing is that this is on both Fuzes.
This issue should be posted in the thread for the roms you are using or the many threads related to the dialers. Also it is posted in the wrong section. This is not a Rom Development topic. Please put more though into what you are going to post in the future, especially if it involves starting a new thread.

A couple of questions...

1. How do I stop the backlight turning off when I am on a call? It is frustrating if I want to end a call and the screen is black so I can't press 'end call' or if I am on voicemail, I can't access the keypad to press the number I need to save, delete or save a message.
2. When I first got the phone, whenever I typed an MMS the vibrate worked as I touched the keypad but its not working now. Any ideas how to put this back on, vibrate works for everything else.
Thanks
I've found out the answer to question 2 of my query but still would like to know the answer to question 1. Thanks

You can press any key other than end call to get the screen back without hanging up the phone, although, I know what you mean, its frustrating.
Theres a couple of programs on the market, but neither of them work right on the Hero yet. Shake awake I think is one.
1. The home key or menu key wake the screen without having any effect on the call.

Vibration Trouble

This seems like it should be a non-issue, yet here I am.
Here is the problem. My (and I will assume all) S3's suffer from a vibration that isn't all that strong. I am coming from an archaic HD2 and everything is great with the s3 cept the HD2's vibrate could...ya know..be felt!
I have mine turned to the max but its still barely able to be felt. To make matters worse, the duration of the vibrate when I get a text or email is VERY short. When I get a text for instance, the phone vibrates for less than 2 full seconds and I miss stuff all the time. I tried different vibrate patterns but it still only vibrates for those two seconds. After creating a custom pattern I realized these vibrate patterns only take affect for incoming calls, not texts or emails.
So how on Earth (please tell me there is a way) do I increase the duration of the vibrate for texts? (emails I can live without but a 2 second vibrate when I get a text isn't going to cut it when the max vibration is so mild).

Stock Dialer/Phone app LOCK/Speaker Phone

The Basics:
Device Samsung Galaxy Tab A SM-T295 8.0 android 9
I have actually two sort of related problems.
First is that, when call comes in, even though this thing is really to big too hold up to your ear, the call doesn't automatically default to SPEAKER. There is a button that needs to be touch AFTER the call is answered to put it into speaker mode.
The second issue is that, as soon as you answer the call, a lock screen requiring a double tap to open comes on keeping you from getting to the speaker button. In another place I read that this lock screen in intended to keep you from inadvertently dialing or hanging up and such when holding the phone to the ear.
This lock screen has about a one second timer on it so getting to the button is very tricky.
This lock screen makes it all but impossible to be on a call and set up a second call to make a three way. I don't do this very often so it isn't that big a deal.
The ideal solution for me would be to get the device to default to speaker phone on every call.
The secondary solution would be to disable that lock screen so I could immediately hit the speaker phone button as soon as I answer the call rather than have to answer the call, double tap to unlock, and scramble to hit the speaker phone button before it locked again.
Since I have already tried and failed to be able to get in to change the SMS limit, solutions that require the same kinds of actions probably are no good.
I a wondering if there is a replacement Dialer/Phone/Contacts APP that might solve the problem??

Note 4 - How to stop screen from displaying/unlocking during & after notifications &

Note 4 - How to stop screen from displaying/unlocking during & after notifications &
Hi all.
Two problems here which I'm presuming have the same fix.
1) This happens when I'm using the phone, say, listening to music via Bluetooth headset. When I receive a message or email, the screen will automatically light up to the unlock screen showing a notification pop up that I have a message. Because the phone is in my pocket and the screen is swipe unlocked, which I prefer, it is highly likely that the phone will unlock fully - so by the time I look at the phone it's done all sorts of things I didn't want.
2) When answering a phone call, the screen obviously lights up as normal. I have set it up so that when the phone is upright the screen will go blank. But, when I have finished a call using the headset, the screen comes back on again and shows the contact and because the phone is unlocked it ends up doing things I didn't want.
Please can someone tell me how to keep the screen off during and after a phone call or notification!
Is there a code to write or delete that can make it so that when I receive a phone call or notification I must press the power button to display the screen like I normally do to see the time?
Any assistance is very much appreciated!
Thanks
