Do lights light up on Hero keypad buttons??? - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
Have just noticed that lights on bottom of Hero don't light up!
Is this right?
Only just noticed this as its the first time i have had the phone in the dark!
Mine is a Hero G2 on T-Mobile(UK).
Is there a setting to get em back working?
All i have done to phone is load various apps/games via android market and changed home screen via beautiful widget etc.
Anyone know what to do?
Many thanks for all help given....

Apperently i cant post links, so i will try to send you a link in PM instead.
Otherwise, search google for htc hero backlight buttons
it seems that you are not the onlyone with this problem, seems like a replece or service is the only way.

I am sure your Hero runs the 1.76* build... it had that kind of bug you mentioned... and alot of other nasties too... for example the headphone jack problem... and LEDs not lighting up... not to mention the lag...
Menu > Settings > About phone and scroll down until you see "Build number"...

Ya, thanks anyways, it doesnt seem to go away for me, and i flashed Chrome rom, and it is fixed now.... thanks anyways, and again, great ROM, chrome isnt compared to it. but i like Wifi
am downloading it now (v13).. lets see. will update on ur link if i run across any problems
This is a great looking ROM. Like its almost ripped out of the TP2 or a Hero. Very quick and responsive. One noticeable isssue Ive had is a resizing problem when texting in landscape. Other than that, im also pleased i barely had to install anything, like almost everything i needed was there already.
Kudos
Just flashed this rom and I'm very happy with it. Runs very smooth and fast.
Only thing is I can't find the keyboard selector. Was it cooked in or do I have to install it? It seems the fuze keyboard is selected and this makes using the hw keyboard on a TP kind of difficult.
Awesome work on the rom!
Is all the hardware button working?

All seem to be working on my touch pro including volume control.
I had to install the fuze / pro keyboard selector to get the hw keyboard working correctly.
Home button
Is there any chance to make Home Button open Manila Home Tab instead of WM start menu?
Hmm I installed chome editor 1.6 and now the lower left button (next to the start button) always says action and when pressed tries to start the htc action screen which isn't there. Is there a way to restore this?
First I want to say Thank You for such a beautiful ROM. It's fast, finger friendly, and professional looking. (Love the slider)
A couple things I have noticed are as followed:
1. Under the Notifications options, when I select "New Text Message", then try to select a different sound it scrolls the window behind the drop down box... not the actual drop down box. Same goes for the "Event" box, but only on some. Hard to explain.
2. Minor but annoying - When waking up and the device is locked, the clock jumps to the bottom of the screen then back up to the top.
3. Another Minor thing - "Start" occasionally shows up on the top left of the screen. Is it always supposed to be there or never? I know it brings up programs.
4. GfxBoost (lol "DO NOT DISTRIBUTE") has some icon issued on the bottom left and right. Bottom left (you can only see 1/4 of the windows logo) and bottom right (Don't know what it's supposed to be)
All-in-all i feel this is a fantastic ROM. I'd love to see what else you got up your sleeve. After about 16 hours I was down to 64% battery with hardly any use, but then again I was in the office where I get ZERO signal!
funny, I can only confirm the first issue. This happens only when using a sweep to scroll. When the slider is used it scrolls ok. I have also seen this pn the activesync screen when selecting message delivery schedules.
I'm running without manilla btw. I love Titanium
I am not registered (yet) on the other forum, hence posting here.
Installed v13 and its amazing.. fast and nice graphics..
Only one issue uptil now. In call recording is not working. It gives an error (something like cannot start ICR, wrong certificate etc..) Can I unistall ICR (not in the remove programs list) and install autocall recorder 1.2 instead? tht gives me more options..?
thanks
Thank You
Very nice ROM, thanks! I haven't gone through everything, but all seemes good so far!
Hey herg!
I had no idea you were a chef too! I flashed your rom and it is kick ass so far...
Aside from TF3D being a little sluggish (not that I care since I no longer use it... iPhoneToday all the way... for now ) it have not seen bugs.
BT file transfer - oK
3G connection - oK
ActiveSync - oK
Battery life - pretty good so far
GPS lock on - to be tested later
Wifi - to be tested later
I will try to report some more later on, but so far... kick ass!
love it
i havent updated to D-fresh-est but your doug-e-fresh is an amazing rom thank you for your contributions buddy im flashing this sucka tonight

in 6.5.1 builds the keyboard selector is gone. Instead, hold down the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen and the selector pops up. That's the good...the bad is that it makes it harder to toggle the keyboard off the screen cause pressing it leads to he selector instead of toggling but that's the build, not the ROM. I'm still loving the ROM

HTC Android Black Screen on Sleeping!

Hi, I got android on my HD2. The issue i'm facing recently is the black screen after the phone goes into sleep mode. Somehow I couldn't wake it up. The button lights up but not the screen. I have to take the battery out to resolve it. Any idea? is there a compatible issue between the ROM/radio and the android version?
I got stock ROM 2.13 with 2.10 radio and the Froyo 2.2 android!
i always found uising the hang up button caused this when i used android, using call pick up cured it, dont know if tht helps!
I have that it need several secound before comming out of sleepmode :S anyone has a solution for that?
Press the home button.

Hey OP, i also had that problem and i have the same radio as you, from my experience if you change your Android Kernal to hastarin's 7.1 it could solve your issue, it did for me =]. Good luck
Note: pressing the home button when there is a SOD does not turn back on the display lol (it basically does nothing)

i have this exact problem with every rom i download, i also have the same radio and stock rom. have you had any luck?
You should try this:
Menu > Settings> Display > disable "Auto Rotate Screen"
Also what Android ROM are you running; what Windows ROM; What Class micro SD Card;....? You should provide more information...
Hi,
Menu > Settings > LockScreen > disable "Auto Lock Screen"
Sorry for my english.

[MiniCM7Pro v21] Problem with symbols on default text imput

Hi
Another problem... again... android... always some problem with it.
When i press "sym-au" key on phisical keyboard and scroll all the way down it freezes and stays there. It is possible to disable it, but it wont move, or clicking in any symbol has no effect completely unresponsive.
On virtual keyboard the same... blocking and unblocking device helps also restart. But its frustrating to remember about it. Is it any solution ? On stock rom there was no such problem.

Scroll the last part slowly (scroll it with your finger, don't fling it), it will stay responsive, if it does freeze, doing a rotation from landscape to portrait will make it respond again.

Thanks for tip. It helps.
So its known problem... this version of rom will be updated? Is there any way chance this will be fixed ?

NO, that ROM won't get any updates anymore, and the issue is present on just about all roms, apart from the original stock firmware. If it was easy to fix someone would have done that already, i guess, so i won't hold my breath.
Just think of it whenever you need something that's near the bottom, it's not that hard to live with.

weird spot on my Xperia 1 screen

Hello everyone,
Today I was checking my phone and I noticed this big oval spot at the bottom left of the screen.. It only appeared in the morning, but I never seen it before! It's like it came all of a sudden! VERY STRANGE ON AN OLED SCREEN!
it's not visible at all on a pitch black background, but only on light colors like white, gray...etc check the attached photos below !
anyone have or had same issue on their Xperia 1? and if anyone knows what caused it to appear and if its gonna be permanent or if it will disappear by the time?
Please let me know in the comments!
thanks for your contribution and help!
Since you are using the gesture mode. I believe it's something with the sideswipe rather than screen/display problem.

yes, since i got the phone which is 1 year and 3 months I've been using gesture swipe option.. do you think it's a software rather than hardware?
Yes. I think it's software.
In my phone, I sometimes see that the clicked gesture keeps showing in the back button.
I have seen it many times.
I guess it's similar to what mine was in yours too.
.... and it exactly looks like you are going back from the app or menu.
Maybe you can try using the two-finger or 3 classic types to check.

do you still see your spot or it's completely disappeared as it never been there?
also, have you tried to factory reset your phone and see if it's software or hardware?
thanks for keeping up!
It's gone but appears sometimes.
Mine disappears by pressing the power button, or back key or recent apps.
