On jellybean
When I receive a phone call while the phone is off I get the option to either "Decline" or "Accept". I accept by pulling the green "Accept" button down and into the half circle. Immediately the phone turns off again, requiring me to push the power button again to turn it on. Although this is something that isn't terribly hard to do, it is annoying as many times I touch the speaker button. I would be nice if when I accept the call the phone would stay awake so I can just touch speaker.
I went through the settings but could not find anything. Any idea's?

This is a known issue with the Proximity Sensor not working correctly. My phone does the same thing and I am currently in contact with HTC support. I will let you know what I find out

So after a couple emails back and forth with HTC. I have been escalated to a higher tech person. Waiting to hear back
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app

I did search, but didn't find anything...
I'd like to disable the messaging button and PIE button on my phone when I've got an active call. Whenever I'm on a call, and hold the phone to my ear, I end up pressing one or both buttons. It gets really tiring having to constantly close the messaging app, or PIE every time I get off the phone.
So, is there a way to disable those buttons with a call active?
Thanks

havent seen an app around that can do that...
Do I just have abnormally big ears?
It drives me nuts, anyone else have this problem?
No, you're not the only one!

Happens to me too - but usually it only happens when I jam the phone between my head and shoulder (hands-free mode )....don't think it's related to ear size....
Probably the only solution is to stick a BT headset in your ear and always answer the phone with that.....or press 'OK' a couple of times when you end the call!
Not much help, but at least now you know you're not alone
Mark.
True...
And, I think it might only happen when I have the phone between my ear and shoulder too... which ends up being like all the time.
Problem with the bluetooth thing, is two fold
1) I've not found one that is loud enough
2) I don't like wearing it all the time, so put it down... when the phone rings, and I pickup the bluetooth, and try to answer with it, the phone has stopped ringing by the time the phone and earpiece are paired...

...ain't that just the way
One thing I've just thought of, though I've not tried it yet....
If your phone is "locked" (from the today screen plugin) and a call comes in, you get the popup to show who's calling etc. - do the messaging and PIE buttons still operate in those circumstances? If not, you might just have found yourself a solution
Mark.
<locks phone>
Dunno, but not a bad thought.
I'll give that a shot, thanks
Very annoying problem this, ive only done the ROM update offered by T-mobile to fix some bugs.
Now it will randomly stop responding when you press any button on the phone it doesnt do anything. If you hold down the power button then tap it again sometimes it comes to life. Ive called it when it does this to try and wake it up as it were or send a text, nothing it doesnt even recognise they have been sent after the restart. All i can do is a soft reset. Anyone have a clue what could be causing this?

I have this problem as well. sometimes pressing the power key all that happens is the keys light up but no response on the screen, you may fin dif you leave it a few minutes it will start to work again. I'm not an expert in these things but it seems to be similar to if you have a faulty memory stick in a pc. I'm on my 5th replacement from HTC on just 6 moth of owning the phone. Its a complete nightmare and renders the phone completely useless. Send it to htc for repair. check any return handsets very carefully they send you as they sent me 3 handsets with the screens incorrectly fitted. Take date stamped pics of your handset also before sending so you can prove the condition of it before it was sent to them.

I am also suffering from this.
Not sure why this started happening, but whenever I call my voicemail the phone goes dark and I can't turn the screen back on. Neither pressing the power button or the home button does anything, but I can still hear the phone call. Any ideas?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Now the screen won't even turn back on after the phone call has ended
Do you use a screen protector? Check if the protector doesn't covers the sensor. It is possible that the sensor doesn't react well when it's covered (I had a similar problem with the Dell Streak).
Also try to make a call with a wired headset or if you make a call and you can't turn on the screen plug the headset in.

Might be a little bit late, but maybe for others
worked pretty well on my Samsung S4.
download the app "proximity fix" from the playstore and run it.
Job done.
Hope that helps you or anyone who stumbles upon this!
This seems an overly obvious question. Does the watch have vibrate? I just got it two days ago, but no setting of vibrate anywhere seems to make it shake. I would think I'd have run across someone else saying something if it lacked the ability...
So, kinda wondering if mine is broken or if I totally missed that it isn't there.
Thanks

Mine vibrated yesterday and now it wont vibrate. If you scroll down from the top on your home screen, click the icon in the top right corner, that should bring up your wifi, airplane mode, gps, battery, etc icons. If you scroll down to audio profiles, there is one called meeting that has a picture of a phone vibrating. That should make calls and messages vibrate your phone. You can also manually turn them on because if you go to settings/device/audio profile/settings for general where you can select vibrate plus ring, and if you scroll down there is an option for vibrate on touch. Even though I have both these settings checked, and they used to work, they are no longer working. I tried a factory reset, and that didn't fix it. Now, when I power on my watch, I get a message that says headphones disconnected. It seemed to stop working after I started getting this message, not sure if that is normal or if it has anything to do with it. I will let you know if I figure out a way to get mine vibrating again, but for now it looks like mine could be broken. Can anyone else chime in on this if this has happened to you?

It does vibrate. But very few things use that function it seems. I was thinking about setting up a tasker script to vibrate on any notification.

Anyone have any ideas on how to get mine vibrating again? I've done the backup and restore option, is that how you do a proper factory reset, or is there another way I can try to get this thing to start working again?
update: Just flashed 1900_20140120 firmware using the excellent guide on here, and still no vibrate

Mine started working. Not sure why; I tried to reset to factory and despite following the directions and watching Loki's video, i managed to lock the watch up. Popped the battery, put it back together, wiped the device. Now it vibrates and that is good. Just wish i knew what I had did that fixed it.
Thanks all!
Jd
Mine does not vibrate either, never did.
I tried with the stock firmware, Loki's firmware, stock with enhanced security... no luck...
Thoughts?

Mine started vibrating again. I went to take the battery out, but couldn't get the screws off, so I gave up, when I rebooted, all the sudden vibrate worked again. Not sure if it was powering it on and off a few times, or shaking it around, try taking the battery out and putting it back in if you can, if not, just try turning it off and then on and maybe lightly shaking it around
Well,
It looks like a bad electrical contact, I've downloaded an app called "vibrater" that does just what it says, and it won't start the vibrator until I lightly tap the watch on it's side while the app is turning the vibrator on.
But it does not stick. I guess I will have to return the watch to have it fixed...
Until tonight, I thought the TrueSmart just didn't have a vibrator...
Vibration doesnt work
Hey, just received my Omate Trusmart! (Kickstarter edition)
Overall I am extremely happy with the watch, but there are a couple of major problems:
1. The vibration doesn't work, I have tried rebooting, factory restore etc but nothing seems to work. Does anyone know a fix to this or is it a hardware problem?
2. My screen has very faint dark spots in the center. Looks like a manufacturing defect.
Is it possible to return the watch to get a replacement? I havent opened the back cover yet.
Thanks.
Whenever I place or receive a call, the screen turns off, and I have to cover up the light sensor to get it to turn back on. In order to end a call, I have to have the accessibility mode turned on to end the call with the power button. I'm running OmniROM, and the rest of the information about my setup is in my signature. Is there a way that I can disable this from happening? It makes it kind of a pain to navigate phone trees on automated systems. Is there a way I can get this to work? I have my phone in a ZeroLemon hard case.

It is not the matter of Zerolemon, I am also using that. It is having issue on Proximity sensor. Please google how to calibrate that or off that.

Except the strange thing is, *#0*# doesn't work at all on OmniROM, so I had to check the calibration with ADB.

Ha..that even not working in my ROM. The reason behind might be deleting all *test.apk files from the ROM. Those usually been deleted as bloatware. But looks like you need those.
