Done a search and can't find a solution...
With the 'easy to press' buttons on the HD2 the phone screen keeps powering on in my pocket (I use phone lock to stop auto dialling).
This is draining the battery...
Any way to stop this happening? Say, have just the power button only turn on the screen, after a long press for example???

Try settings / system / keylock settings. There are options to set the buttons as non responsive except for the power button.

I have this same issue and I've got a stock 3.14 tmobile rom but when I go to settings / system /, there is no options for keylock settings. is that on a custom rom?
+1 for this
From new my phone used to have the option of locking all buttons except the power key ... until I did my first hard reset, then it vanished! I would have thought the settings app would have been in the ROM, so restored after the hard reset, but obviously not.
Anyone have a cab for it or care to extract it from their HD2?
<quote>Try settings / system / keylock settings. There are options to set the buttons as non responsive except for the power button.</quote>
Nope, no such option on my HD2...
Seems we need 'keylock.exe'
Anyone got it and know if it will work in an HD2?
Ok, at least I know I'm not unique now...
i've installed Hd2ProximityScreenOff-0.2.cab which I guess turns the screen back off quickly if an "in-pocket" button press brings the screen to life. (can't confirm what happens in my pocket, but seems to do the trick in my hand)
but I'd really like to know if someone knows how to get to this keylock setting

Take a look at my signature. I'm using NRG ROM, which I highly recommend.

ahh crap, noob mistake. sorry.
any chance you can dig up where "settings / system / keylock settings" points?
maybe it points to something already in the stock rom?

i can install the stock rom update right from tmo, and install cabs and crap, but not yet ready to make the leap to customer roms (or android for that matter)
try pocketshield software. it has feature that turns your screen immediately off if its in pocket etc with proximity sensor, also its great and cool.
Hi all,
I find annoying the need to unlock my device every time the screen goes off. I know I can change the sleep time in settings but it means more power loss.
There's an app for apple devices called NoLockScreen, it does exactly what I need, when the screen goes off in my iPad, power or action button opens where I was.
I'd be grateful if someone has an answer or points me in the right direction

No Lock from the Android Market has worked great for me on my View.
In settings under security you can change the lockscreen to not lock at all while still allowing your device to sleep.

Hello!
I have rooted galaxy s2, change 15 custom roms, and still there’s one thing on every rom seam to appear: when i try to connect bluetooth on main screen, with scroll down options, and when i choose to select bluetooth icon, there's constant problem with every custom rom: first appears sound and then icon of bluetooth with this sign ”?”, and text message ''bluetooth available'' beside that ''?''! Despite of that, bluetooth works, but that’s really annoying! What is that, how can i fix it?

Hi mate,
just press this notification and u will see it's just an info.
U will directly bring u to bluetooth settings - f.ex. to make phone visible or connect to a device.
So:
Activate per icon in notificationbar (bluetooth activated)>press notification>
connect to device or make phone visible etc.
It's just a wy to make life easier and safe some clicking via menu>settings>Wireless etc.
Hope u understand and I could help.

What he is saying, is that it is intended. It is part of Android so you can more easily get to the bluetooth settings screen to either pair with other devices or change your discovery settings.

You all have me misuderstood, that is not part of Android, it's fault, error
That is error message in notification bar, when you turn on bluetooth, bluetooth is activated without any sound or message like ''bluetooth available ?'', doest this message is normal, it's not!

I'm pretty sure I understand you just fine... but just in case, I'll describe what I see when I turn on bluetooth.
When I turn on bluetooth, I get a notification tone, and a notification that has the bluetooth symbol with a "?". When I swipe my notification bar down, it says "Bluetooth available". If I click on that, the notification icon disappears, and my bluetooth settings opens.
If this is NOT what you are talking about, maybe posting some screenshots would help us understand what you mean.

You actually do have an option to turn on notifications when open wi-fi networks are available. But it's off by default, I think.
As for GPS, the GPS doesn't have to connect to anything like wi-fi or bluetooth, exactly.
Mate,
all is fine.
This notification only appears on bluetooth.
And no it's not an error...
U can see it like and notification/info that u now are able to do s.th. with bluetooth... That for it is.
And sure there must be an "?" because at tgis moment u turn on bluetooth u aren't automaticly connect to an other device...
And yes it wasn't there everytime... It's was a "feature" (maybe for u not) in an earlier firmware release of android.
Be cool... Press notification and see that nothing crazy happening and then u can decide if u you.... If not just ignore it.
Hope all is fine now

yes, just that what you said! So that is normal! Can i turn off that option?
But it confuses me, because on one custom rom, which i held for long nothing like that is happening!

Hmm don't think so because it's a bit senseless to turn it off (normally).
But I'm not using the actual JKay, maybe it has the option to deactivate the notification, but I'm not sure...
Don't misunderstand me, but if u activate bluetooth y normally want to connect and than it's better to do it with two than with 5 clicks or?
Maybe u think again about it.
Hope all is clear now for you ;-)

That only shows up when you turn on bluetooth from OUTSIDE the bluetooth settings screen. In other words, from the notification bar or a widget, so you can more quickly open the bluetooth settings, if you wanted to pair a new device. If you turn on bluetooth when you're already IN the bluetooth settings screen, it won't show up. Try it. You can ignore it. It's NOT an error.

See photo:
The scanning icon comes up every 5 seconds. Just wondering is this normal or what? Never showed up on my S2.
Also I keep getting a "connected to wifi network" notification at the bottom of my screen every few mins. Can't find anything to disable this.
Anyone in same boat?
It looks like its having problems keeping connected to your network, but its strange as you got full bar connection does it drop to nothing or is go very low when it reconnects?
This can be controlled with Rom Toolbox if you are rooted. I do it with my Note.

It sometimes goes off(wifi) when I turn off the screen.

if the wifi switches off on screen of thats wifi sleep policy, I don't know if thats under battery saver feature so if you have that on that could be why ill take a look.
*edit*
So I had a look if you go to Wi-Fi and click on it and navigate to advance you can change the "keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to always. It should stay on all the time now which hopefully should fix your problem

Tried that but still the problem is there. If I turn screen off for a min or 2 and turn it back on then there's no wifi icon for a few seconds. I thought having it on always means it stays consistently connected to wifi? This doesn't seem to be the case as the "connected to wifi network " message appears at bottom of screen again.

Hey google not responding with screen off or locked?
Tried enabling in the settings, still only works when phone is active?.
I have same problem ... It works only on lock screen, not when screen is black. So for example if I have accident and cannot move my arms, then I cannot use assistant to call for help, because I need to push power button (or double tap screen) first . This is very sad, just imagine how many people dieded because they could not call for help .
LOL, im sure it will get fixed, glad its just not me.
Did they remove the BOOST charge option for you to?

I never heard of boost option what is that ..
In charge setting there was an option called BOOST MODE, i was getting 18 min charge with it on, now its 21-22 mins, not a big difference really, just wondered where it went.

A neat workaround is if you have a smartwatch, it still works on that.
