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.

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).
Hi!
Is there a way to disable the call reject function of the external media button?
It happens from time to time, if i receive a call on my STRTRK that at the moment when getting the device out of my pocket I accidentally press the call decline button.
Thanks a lot in advance for any hint,
christian
i think you can only do this by locking all the outside buttons after closing:
settings --> external screen --> button lock after closing
thanks nirak, i tried that already. but unfortunatly this only locks the buttons when the phone is in idle state. as soon as a call comes in the buttons still will work in order to reject the call...
i thought there might probably be some sort of registry key or something to disable that.
if there is no possibility it's not a big deal. it just happens from time to time.
thanks anyway,
christian
Hello, I have been looking all day to find out how to lock the screen during a call.
I keep getting random things happening when I am calling… Hanging up, calling someone else, programs running… etc… Hanging up is the most common for me.
I would like to have the screen lock when connected but have the hardware keys still active so I can end the call. But I also need to be able to get to the keypad and other areas when on a call, but I would like to have to unlock the screen first.
Thanks!
Have you tried hitting the power button on top to turn off the screen during a call? then if you need to get to something you tap the power button again to turn on the screen again. Simple, effective.
That solution does not work with a bluetooth headset. When you disconnect your call via headset, the screen comes on even if the power button has been pressed.
I have S2U2, but I can't figure out if there's a way around this 'feature.'
You should try Throttle Lock. It locks the phone very well.
I am running tazz froyo, but this has been a problem for a while. When I receive a text message with sound, like one of those stupid forwards everyone gets it has no sound. I have searched the phone settings and cant find a way to disable or enable the sounds. does anyone else have this problem or know what might be causing it?
My second problem is how do you wake the phone up from sleep while on speaker phone without hanging up on the person. The only way that I have been able to do it is to press the end button which terminates the call.
thanks for the help
For the first one, I have no idea.
For the second one, I'm glad to share this as I found it out yesterday.
Press and hold the volume up button and then press the send button to wake the screen when you're on a call and the screen won't turn on.

i guess, u should help yourself. you must remember to end an active call. I mean, thats something, at least i will not forget.
and when you are not using your device, make sure the screen is locked. this would prevent the accidental touches. you can also setup a password/pattern lock for your screen from settings --> location and security.
