Is there any way to adjust the time it takes to exit to the today screen after ending a call? I dont know about you but when i end a call i want back to my home screen right away!
Old
This is quite and old question, but after much searching, I never saw an answer. Is there a way to get the phone to go immediately back to the today screen without delay one a call is ended?

Does anyone know how to stop the device returning to the Touchflo 3D home screen every time I wake the device up? I have a Touch Pro but no-one seems to know the answer to this in the forum and I guess it's a TF3D issue.
I can't find anything about this on a search, but I'm sure I remember reading about it in the Diamond forum.
It's annoying when it goes off when I'm writing a text message or in a call or listening to music and I have to navigate all the way back.
Same Problem
yes... i have the exact same problem.
To add to it, I've set autolock also. When I'm trying to watch a vedio on you tube, and if it's taking some time to buffer, the phone locks. And upon unlocking, i'll find myself in the home screen... and have to navigate back to youtube menu all again.
Very uncomfortable behaviour, especially when you are trying to show off the features on your phone to friends...
Is this solved in any new ROMs... or is there a tweak for setting this right?
I like the autolock thing - it's great. However when I'm writing a message or something it is so annoying.
Also, because the screen on the Touch Pro goes off in calls, it always goes back to the home screen so you can't see the call status, can't add notes and can't read contacts as easily. More annoyingly, my line of work involves phone systems that require entering numbers a lot so I always need to see the phone keypad. Very annoying.
did you guys every get this sorted. Just got my diamond 2 and I have the same annoying problem

that defeats the purpose of the lock. the lock is to keep everyone that doesn't know the pattern out of your phone. if someone did get a hold of your phone and a call came then all they would need to do is answer the call hang up and use the phone freely.
I believe, the scenario is this:
Even when the phone is not locked before a call, and regardless of whether the call is originated or answered, when you hang up the phone using the red button, it locks the screen. That means if I want to make 2 calls in a row, I must unlock the phone after each call is over.
This does not happen 100% of the time - I have seen a couple of cases when I hang up and the screen does not lock, but I have not been able to figure out how it decides whether to lock the screen or not when I hang up on a call. In my opinion, the screen should never be locked by hanging up on a call, unless it was locked when the call was answered.
This is one of the more irritating behaviors of the phone - I hope for a change to make the red button function be sensitive to the call state and not lock the phone when it is used to hang up.

Maybe the other party hung up before you pressed the "end call" button. This may cause the G1 to think you are locking the screen instead of trying to end the call. Try not pressing the end call button and just wait for the other party to disconnect the call. Not sure if it will work....its just a theory that I am too lazy to test..

this is the exact behavior i was describing and i too get the mixed results, sometimes it locks and sometimes it doesnt. i guess i will have to test out the theory of not eating end call and letting the other caller end the call.
Was just wondering if anybody else is experiencing this problem. When i make or receive a phone call my screen goes off and will not under any circumstances turn back on until the call is ended. I was just calling a company that requires me to select number to get to the right department and i couldn't because the screen is off and there is no way to turn it on to get to the number pad and hit the right key... Worst part about it is that the automated answering system does hangup so the only way for me to end the call was to pull the battery. Anybody have any idea what could be causing this? perhaps a faulty proximity sensor?
Incase anybody asks yes i tried hitting the power/wake key on the top and any and all buttons but still the screen remains off durring calls until the other party hangs up and it kicks me back out to the homescreen.
Sounds like a fault light/proximity sensor. My screen turns off as I place it near my ear, and then turns back on when I pull it away, just as it should.
Yea i was thinking the same thing. Looks like i will have to make my way back to the store durring lunch to get a replacement device...
Not even really sure what happened, but I was on a call, received another, and hit the answer button. When I looked at the phone again, there was just a normal call screen with something generic like "caller" on it, not the screen that shows both calls, and which one's on hold. So I had to hit the menu button in the bottom right to switch back. Anyone have this happen, or is it normal for the ONE? It may have been the first call waiting I've had, but I'm not even sure, am just so used to how the evo screen looked, I never thought anything about it.
Some of y'all have probably gotten the latest update, that includes the Dec security patch, camera improvement and more importantly that new spam-screening stuff. Well, I've gotten 5 spam calls today, after not having one for days, and when the caller hangs up (after hearing nothing but silence from me) the screen locks up. But just the call phone app/call screen.
I can hit the home button and return to my home screen just find, close and reopen the phone app just fine, but that hangup freeze is kind of annoying. Reason being because after every spam call ends you know about that "block number" option that appears right after the call ends? I can't get to it because of this bug. I tried taking a screen shot but it wouldn't let me because the screen freezes.
It's not a big deal, just a minor inconvenience but I wanted to know if any other T-Mobile user with the latest OTA has experienced the same thing.
I'm on Verizon and have a similar problem. It's a major pita. Anytime I get a call my phone freezes up. I can't unlock it for at least a few tries, once unlocked all I've got is a frozen black screen with a missed call notification and an ongoing incoming call notification at the same time. Neither can be dismissed or cleared. It does show me the options to but they don't work when pressed. Average lockup of my phone is upwards of 5 minutes. If I miss a call no matter how long ago it came in I've got the same issue unlocking and it always displays the missed call and appears that the call is either active or incoming. Basically can't use the phone as a phone. Texts work fine however.
