Hello, my PDA is working a cookedWM6 rom and it is a G4 after a spanish WM5.
Since I installed WM6, if I don't lock the device (keypad and screen) before suspending the device then it turns on, 3~60 sec later.
I have detected that the phone turns on when you have the phone near a speaker and it sounds like the phone is emiting or receiving a kind of signal. (but no calls, messages or alarms are coming) If the device is locked it sounds the signal again but it doesn't turn on.
Can anybody help me? It is a pity to be locking and unlocking when you turn on and suspend.
Same thing...
Any help would be great...mine is draining my battery!
My solution: get back to WM5
I think is the only one.
Update
Hey eljoe found the cause in another thread!!!
"hi!, actually the issue happends when the lock option is enable and the phone is locked. After a few seconds or minutes the screen suddenly turns on. The only workarround that works is to uncheck the backlight auto turn off feature.
Lock option + turn off backlight enabled = issue
Lock option + turn off backlight disabled = no issue"
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.
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.
Hi guys i have recently had a problem with my hd2. Whenever the phone goes into the lockscreen the backlight stays lit and when i press the lock button again it should technically go into suspend mode but this is not the case. It dims black then goes bright again and stays on constantly. Can anyone help with this problem im unsure what to do ?
I ahve small problem. While im on the phone the screen goes off and cant do nothing. What i can do is only press power button to restart. Even if caller end call i still have screen off and vol/menu/power buttons doesnt help. Only pressing power for restart the phone.
What is it and how can i fix it ?
Which Rom are you running? Any apps that might be interfering with proximity sensor?
