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.
Anyway to stop this? Now i have to use a lock screen so i don't accidentally push buttons in my pocket. Anyway to turn this option off. Thanks
When I pick the phone or move it the screen turns on. It is annoying. Is there a way to only turn on screen by pressing power button? Please help.
Go to settings->smart convenience->gesture & motion and turn off Raise to Turn On Screen
I have already done that. But the screen still wakes up without any notification or pressing power button.

Mine too
Disabling Auto Screen-On
Go to Fingerprint Settings under "Fingerprint, Face & Passwords" Section and Turn Off " Display the Fingerprint Icon when Screen is Off" option.
Faced the same issue, switching that off in Settings doesn't help!
Verizon S21 Ultra
Been having this problem since I got the phone. Did a hard reset, no help.
WIFI calling disabled. Press Side Key to end calls is disabled.
Under Motions and Gestures: Lift to Wake, Keep screen on while viewing: enabled. Screen timeout 1 minute. Accidental touch protection enabled. Touch sensitivity disabled
So I will be on a call and after a few minutes I pull the phone away from my ear to hang up. But the screen is black.
I have to hit the side button to get the screen to reappear.
Please help!
Anyone have thoughts here?
Hi, not sure if anyone else has had this issue.
It's only really been happening to me the last few mornings when I wake up.
My screen is blank, the top half (no clock showing) the bottom half shows the bottom half with the fingerprint and if I touch anything, it's just frozen.
My alarm has sounded while it's been like this, and it shows the slider to turn it off, but again won't actually slide when I try, so the alarm keeps sounding.
The only way i it responds normally is if I press the off button to turn the screen off, then press it again to turn it back on, and then it seems back to normal.
I can't think of anything I have installed recently that might be causing it?
Anyone got any ideas please?
Regards
James
Do you use goodlock and custom clocks on aod and lock screen?
I do use goodlock yeah, thinking about it, I did recently charge a setting for aod to wake up notifications. It's there a glitch with that do you know?
I have had my screen go black and wont respond to any presses. Then when pressing the powerbutton the screen shows the home and back button only but responds to nothing, except I can use the sidebar, click on calander for example and then it allows me to unlock. Did this a few times but has not done it again after a power off and on.
