Does anyone know if it's possible to turn off the display while in a call? On my HTC Touch Pro I was able to just press the power button to achieve this - but on the Hero the power button is also the hang up button.
Any ideas?
Actually it's supposed to turn off automatically.
IMO the problem isn't turning the screen off during a call, it's turning it back on when needed.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I agree completely... Is an annoying issue that display go away on call because if you need something, ie keyboard or see call duration you need to do something for have it back.
Why not try this app, which you shake to wake the screen - not tired it myself but worth a go
Shake Awake
If the screen goes blank during a call you can simply press the menu button to wake up the screen again. Just tested that and it works fine.
Still, it would be nice to be able to turn it off when I want and not have to wait for it to time out to switch the display off.
You can also press the answer button to wake screen while in a call.
As to shake-it-to-wake-it, with the non-stick coating on the device I would probably be likely to launch it out of my hand !!! haha
Sprint Hero
I just picked up a Spring HTC Hero this weekend and am finding the same problem. When I place the phone up to my ear the screen does not shut off. However since the end button is also the same button used to turn off the screen, I'm in a catch 22.
For now I have to wait for the screen to time out. Turning the screen back on is not an issue as many have mentioned.
I have had some instances recently where upon powering down, it starts off as normal (powering down message) but then the unit stays in a semi-off mode. I notice this because I walk by later and see a faint bluish tint on the screen indicating it's still on, just appears to be sleeping. Hitting the N button does nothing. I need to press and hold the power button for 10 seconds to get it to go completely off.
ideas?
Is WiFi turned off before you power down? I saw this once and WiFi was on when I powered down. It never happens to me with WiFi turned off.
You really should state what ROM you're using whenever you ask a question. I used to have this problem when I was using cm7 when I'd leave the wifi on when turning the screen off.

It's CM7
Ok, so lately I've noticed when I've had to call a few numbers that need me to Press 1, 2, 3 etc on the dialpad that I can't do it right away. When I put the phone to my ear, as I would expect the screen switches itself off. When I pull the phone away from my face the screen comes on again immediately, but there's about a 5-7 second delay before I can actually press anything. In those seconds after the screen comes on, it wont accept any touch input whatsoever. It's not delayed, presses I make during those seconds just aren't registered at all, then suddenly it begins accepting input as normal. It isn't just number keys either, it's the entire screen, so I can't press End Call until nearly 10 seconds after I've actually pulled the phone away from my face, nor can I move the phone away and press the Speaker Phone button quickly.
This only happens when the screen comes on after being against my face though. If the screen is just turned off and I press the power button, or double tap to wake, it accepts input immediately, so I don't believe it's a hardware problem.
Currently running 4.4.4 rooted, image was made from stock and pre-rooted prior to being flashed onto the phone.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
yeah i've experienced this as well. doesn't happen on speaker though.
No, doesn't happen on speaker phone. If the screen goes off from that and I turn it back on then the screen responds immediately. It only seems to happen in cases where the screen auto shuts off due to it detecting that it's against your face.
My phone keeps waking the screen when it is being charged (the screen timeouts and turns off before being turned back on again after a few seconds, showing the lock screen), even after i switch back to the standard USB charging cable (charging directly to the microusb port). I have checked developer options and keep screen awake when charging is not ticked so that's not the problem. Turning off screen using power button brings up lockscreen.
Additionally, my phone is not able to be switched off. When i switch off, it will enter into a sort of bootloop where the phone will spontaneously turn itself on showing 'Sony' screen > black screen and it repeats this cycle. The phone can however be turned back on during this bootloop if i press and hold the power button while the screen is black.
Guys help me please
I think that your phone's power button is faulty, maybe stucked or something so I kept being pressed
No never
I've just dropped my RN4 and the screen stopped to work (black screen with no backlight) but I could tell that the touch was working well as I've managed to pick up a call. I wanted to remove the SIM card from the tray so I turned the device off by pressing power button for approx. 15s. Then I wanted to back my data up and boot the device to transfer data to the PC however I was unable to - when I've tried to press the power button to turn it on, device vibrated once and is doing so repeatedly from then on (the cycle is: vibration - 10 s pause - vibration-.... you get it). After plugging it into PC it is discovered as unknown device only. Is it matter of broken screen only or some more serious problem?
