When it rings the 2 buttons come up on the phone. I swipe the answer button and it goes to the screen it's supposed to but keeps saying incoming call and I can't answer it. I swipe it back and then this screen shows up. I can't end the call or go back to the home screen until I click on the thing at the bottom that says send message - where did that come from I didn't put it there I don't want it there and before that was there I could answer my calls. When the whole mess is over with it says I rejected the call. And naturally I can't upload my screen shots HELP!

1. How do I stop the backlight turning off when I am on a call? It is frustrating if I want to end a call and the screen is black so I can't press 'end call' or if I am on voicemail, I can't access the keypad to press the number I need to save, delete or save a message.
2. When I first got the phone, whenever I typed an MMS the vibrate worked as I touched the keypad but its not working now. Any ideas how to put this back on, vibrate works for everything else.
Thanks
I've found out the answer to question 2 of my query but still would like to know the answer to question 1. Thanks

You can press any key other than end call to get the screen back without hanging up the phone, although, I know what you mean, its frustrating.
Theres a couple of programs on the market, but neither of them work right on the Hero yet. Shake awake I think is one.
1. The home key or menu key wake the screen without having any effect on the call.

i guess, u should help yourself. you must remember to end an active call. I mean, thats something, at least i will not forget.
and when you are not using your device, make sure the screen is locked. this would prevent the accidental touches. you can also setup a password/pattern lock for your screen from settings --> location and security.
When im at work I keep my phone in my pocket. When it rings the screen turns on and sometimes I have gone in to get the phone and accidentally ended/refused the call in the process....is there a way I can keep the screen off when the phone starts ringing...then come one once I touch the screen or press a button?

I have actually two sort of related problems.
First is that, when call comes in, even though this thing is really to big too hold up to your ear, the call doesn't automatically default to SPEAKER. There is a button that needs to be touch AFTER the call is answered to put it into speaker mode.
The second issue is that, as soon as you answer the call, a lock screen requiring a double tap to open comes on keeping you from getting to the speaker button. In another place I read that this lock screen in intended to keep you from inadvertently dialing or hanging up and such when holding the phone to the ear.
This lock screen has about a one second timer on it so getting to the button is very tricky.
This lock screen makes it all but impossible to be on a call and set up a second call to make a three way. I don't do this very often so it isn't that big a deal.
The ideal solution for me would be to get the device to default to speaker phone on every call.
The secondary solution would be to disable that lock screen so I could immediately hit the speaker phone button as soon as I answer the call rather than have to answer the call, double tap to unlock, and scramble to hit the speaker phone button before it locked again.
Since I have already tried and failed to be able to get in to change the SMS limit, solutions that require the same kinds of actions probably are no good.
I a wondering if there is a replacement Dialer/Phone/Contacts APP that might solve the problem??
Note 4 - How to stop screen from displaying/unlocking during & after notifications &
Hi all.
Two problems here which I'm presuming have the same fix.
1) This happens when I'm using the phone, say, listening to music via Bluetooth headset. When I receive a message or email, the screen will automatically light up to the unlock screen showing a notification pop up that I have a message. Because the phone is in my pocket and the screen is swipe unlocked, which I prefer, it is highly likely that the phone will unlock fully - so by the time I look at the phone it's done all sorts of things I didn't want.
2) When answering a phone call, the screen obviously lights up as normal. I have set it up so that when the phone is upright the screen will go blank. But, when I have finished a call using the headset, the screen comes back on again and shows the contact and because the phone is unlocked it ends up doing things I didn't want.
Please can someone tell me how to keep the screen off during and after a phone call or notification!
Is there a code to write or delete that can make it so that when I receive a phone call or notification I must press the power button to display the screen like I normally do to see the time?
Any assistance is very much appreciated!
Thanks
