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.

Lolxx.. This is too much
LOL, yeah it probably will not get fixed for a while if ever, its a satey net issue.
God dam annoying though.
A neat workaround is if you have a smartwatch, it still works on that.

Hi all
the Tosh' TG01 has a lock button on the side (the power button) and doesn't need the slide-to-unlock-because-we're-pretending-to-be-an-iphone screen that means you effectively have to unlock the device twice every time you want to get to a text/call
How do you disable this?
I know you can because before I re-installed 6.5 (don't ask, Toshiba advertised an upgrade that wasn't) I had disabled this with advice that I thought I got from here, but now I can find no info on this here or on google.
so, how do you disable this annoying 'second' lock again?
help me xda-knobi, you're my only hope...

Here's my (simple) advice, but think twice because of possible unwanted commands on your tg01 while in pocket and getting an in-call or sms:
Go to windows/startup and delete autokeylock, soft-reset: here you go, no more slide lock...
Thanks great post and advice it was getting annoying!

Unwanted commands? that sounds ominous - I don't think this was the original method I used, but thanks!

See my edited above post, I suppose I made myself more clear...
Ah I see -
fortunately I am in the habit of locking the phone before putting it away, although I would rather not lose the auto-lock in call mode, or my cheek will be pushing buttons...
I you still want the phone to lock in calls, just use s2u2, and just set it not to lock in general, but to use s2a, and it'll lock during calls only...(by lock, i mean the one thing that'll actually respond to touch will be the hold/ignore slider...which is quite small anway)

Thanks, I'll try that. Although it annoys me that I know there is a method that doesn't need extra apps because I used it before...
would something in the registry disable this?

That actually did the opposite of what I wanted, all that does is replace the slide-to-unlock with a very hard to see old style winmo unlock that made me think my phone was broken!
I'm trying to remove all "soft" locks so that I just push the power button to lock/unlock.

Well, so simple and so good. I was always wondering why lock/unlock software ( with sliders ) on WM6.5 eats irreversible almost 5MB of memory after first action. It never appears on WM6.1 where lock/unlock does not eat almost any RAM.
It turned out this switch enables old fashion ( WM 6.1 like ) lock/unlock .
Now I have additional 5MB of RAM and lock feature still active.
Thanks mirolg !

Thank you sir..... it is very helpful!
I'll cover this app later on the Apps and Games Thread...
I liked the idea and the app. Even have used ez answer but that covered the quick sms reply.
Dont understand why it needs internet, GPS perms and also read sms/mms. If the developer explains that it would be nice.

actually the main idea of slide to answer thingy is to avoid unwanted recieving of call i mean .....our phone has a capacitive tuchscreen which responds to even smallest of our touch if we have a direct answer button then take a situation like for eg: m with my gf and doing naughty things with her and suddenly my dad calls me and bimistakely the direct answer button gets pressed the call will get recieved but i wud not be knowing tht.....so slide answer prevents tht from happening....so slide to answer is very beneficial at such kind of moments....lol

That, and you can use the power off switch to end a call. Settings - Accessibility - tick power key ends calls.
Very useful for these reasons
1. Usually you have to wait for the proximity sensor to lightup the display then end a call.. in that time the person on the other end thinks i wanna talk more, or maybe he wants say something at the last moment and you cant hear it coz the phone is not on ur ear anymore (Coz ur waiting for the screen to light up)
2. The index finger is right on top of the power button when you are holding your fone, atleast mine is, so i can DC it instantly whn I am done talking. Samsung did some things right this is one of them
these two features (Recieve with home key & end with power key) has made life so easy!
I used this app, but I'd really like the HTC Call screen ported to the G3. Any way to do that?

hi
mee too buddy but what to do this is the closest we can get to that
i also have a tattoo(my wife is using it now) and it is real easy for me on that phone
I found these apps too laggy :/
The stock phone app pops up and after few second the buttons appear. I have plenty of time to answer with slides.
If there was a complete replacement it would be faster, but there is not...
HTC Call screen is awesome :L

While I like the app you mentioned,
you just sent me remembering a old days incident which happened with one of my close friend, i think it was around1998, incoming calls were Rs.8.40/min in India.
His father owned a bus service, he used to go to fill diesel and sign slips on petrol pump everyday, mostly with me and very occasionally alone.
One day when I was not along, he was bored so he went to university area, he located a few friends and was at tea shop, discussing everything from how cruel heart his father is, he sends him on bike on rainy days too, father has millions but will drive FIAT only, I hate these qualities, why can't I go by car to fuel the buses etc, oh my GF, she su**s me so hard and wild, I am flirting with a new girl and god knows what not, and to his BAD Luck, his ODD Motorola phone had his father's number saved in voicemail button which got activated.
To cut the story short (i can't stop laughing now), He was without food for 1 day, while Bike and cellphone were taken back for 6-7 days.
While this friend now owns a couple of Big Education centers, He still lives with his father, I am sure both may have forgotten that
So no way to port HTC Call screen to G3? Somebody PUH-LEEZ do it?!!
I'm going to be blunt here and say straight up that I don't remember how my phone used to answer phone calls......I know that sounds stupid but I literally do not know if I slid to answer, or pushed a button, or what....but here's my problem:
As of right now, if someone calls my phone while the screen is off, it will pop up with answer and ignore buttons. This has enabled me to "pocket answer" twice today, because when I try to get my phone out of my pocket, one of my fingers hits "answer" .......... surely it wasn't like this before? I have never had this issue.
How does a stock atrix handle calls when the screen is off? How do I get it back to the way it was? I feel like a full-retard for not knowing what it used to look like, but I cannot remember!
Call screen pops up with sliders. Remains locked afterwards. So you can answer calls without unlocking your phone. If you are managing to stroke the sliders in your pocket, who knows whats going on in there!
My phone has had sliders for answering/ignoring calls since I bought it on 4.1.26.
Do you have your phone set to auto answer? Settings, call settings, auto answer.
If the screen is on and a call comes in you should see "answer" and "ignore" buttons. If the screen is off and a call comes in you should see slide to unlock buttons for "answer" and "ignore". I don't think there's any setting to toggle to enable/disable the s2u for answer/ignore.
When you wake your phone do you see a slide to unlock screen or does it just go straight to the phone home screen? I had this happen to me and a factory reset fixed that up.

LOL! Well that's the thing, right now it doesn't have sliders, it acts like the phone was in use when the call comes through, I get the same UI, the answer and ignore buttons at the bottom...no sliders.....
how do I get my sliders back? I am using widgetlocker for my lockscreen.

disable widgetlocker and see if you still get the problem behavior. Here's an old thread describing your exact problem with widgetlocker being the culprit. It's over a year old so I would have thought it would be fixed by now. dunno.

I'm assuming widgetlocker was fine and dandy before the 2.3.4 OTA update right? Anytime there's a major release level update, e.g. 2.2.2->2.3.X, lots of things can go bonkers for 3rd party apps. Some things can break even with a minor release update, 2.2.1->2.2.2, but it's not as likely. It's just how it is in the world of software. fun huh?

oh . Well anyways you can always send an email to the widgetlocker dev(s). They probably already know about the issue but it doesn't hurt to send them a nice email about the problem.
Hi there,
I'm just wondering if there's a rom that fixes the wakeup lag on the phone. I do believe it must be software related so it should be possible to fix it. I already tried wakelock, but this really drains the battery.
I also tried a few "jellybean"roms, but the problem still persits. I really love my phone, but I dont understand why everytime I want to use my phone I need to stare at a black screen for a while before it wakes up.
Thanks,
No idea either mate but my phone shows the screen instantly when I hit the home button. Maybe energy saving mode on or some apps causing lag?
You could try to back up everything and then wipe your device.
+1 on the instantly turning on

See for yourself! Any solution for this? Seller (which is a famous one) says there is no warranty!

The screen sensitivity or the constant audio feedback? From what I saw the plastic film was still on the front screen. That can be a factor but try to set it to home screen. This seems like a defect screen and you should definately fight your seller.

It appears to me that the phone is in Talkback mode. It's a mode so partially sighted people can use the phone, you'll need to double tap to make selections (the idea is that in this mode, you single tap to explore the screen and the phone reads out what you tapped so you then tap what you need to use), when you get though the setup, go to settings, accessibility and then turn talkback off.
Anyway like I said, you'll need to double tap to make your selections.
