Hi guys,
I've been reading throught the forums and cant find any posts on this so if I've missed them I do apologise...
1) when in a phone call, after about 30 secs the screen completely switches off, this is very frustrating when speaking to a call centre because I can't choose a number, the only way to wake it up is to press the call answer button again (muting the call) and then pressing it again so that I can hear again, I've checked my settings and changed the backlight and the power off to 3 mins but it still happens after 30 secs approx.... any thoughts?
2) I have iGo Sat Nav 2006 which worked perfectly on my TYTN on a bluetooth gps receiver, now on the TYTN II it can't find the internal GPS receiver, am I supposed to map the receiver to a virtual com port or something?
Thanks for your time guys.
Terry
I think the Kaiser Twaeks utility in the forum sticky ahs an option for this, but if you want the specifics, try searching as I think it is just a registry setting.
I think the GPS is set up to use COM4, but I am not much help bsdies this. Searching should also get you some answers for this.
thanks, I'll take another look.
Actually... I have one other small problem that I've just noticed...
if you choose to lock all buttons except the power button the phone still switches itself on if you nudge the keyboard slider!
is there a way to turn that off?
thanks guys
Terry
As jgermuga said,
Kaiser Tweaks will solve your screen and power issues.
The internal GPS handler is on COM4 4800Bd, you should be able to configure this within your Mapping App.
Hi guys,
I just saw the screen disable function when I downloaded the Kaiser Tweak... sorry for posting guys...
Thanks for the info on the GPS, I'll give it a try later.
Cheers

I've just seen what I did wrong... I went into External GPS (thinking that this was a confliction) and changed the COM port to say "None", I have fixed it now.
I cant believe how dumb I've been lately... this phone is now fantastic, shame I was too stupid to realise! lol
Thanks guys for all your help... I'll wake up later

The workaround for this one is to rotate the volume dial...
Does anybody experience a lag when using iGO on the tilt? It seems that it lags to move when you do and when you make a turn, it doesn't make it till a few secs later?
Another way to power the screen back on after the 30 second automatic power-off occurs is to ummm... press the power button

There seems to be a problem with the Kaiser. After finishing a phone call on the Kaiser the backlight goes off and stays off and I cannot access the Start menu. I can access all other functions but backlight stays off and one still cant get into the Start menu from anywhere on the screen. I have to press the power off button quickly once and then wait a second, press it again to be able to access the start button or the light to come on. This is definitely a bug in the tytn II and I hope HTC is doing something about this.
I have experienced the same thing.
After the phone call. I did not hang up.
Instead the person at the other end hangs up and I tries to navigate away then the phone appears to lock up.
Could not turn the phone off either. Had to wait until the phone turned itself off. Once restarted everything ok...

I noticed this as well...
pretty crazy.
Hmm I haven't that problem. Danish HTC TyTN II
Do you folks have the password set? I have heard that that can cause this problem. Try to turn off password checking.
Hi @ All, any news about that problem?
I have a solution
I had the same problems and after installing all the ROM's and still have the same problems, I found out that the problem is not in the ROM it is in the 3G network, disable the 3G network and set it to GSM and all the problems will disappear.
This was nothing to do with 3g.
It was a pre-programmed fast sleep setting that was flawed. Download Kaiser Tweak and turn off all the sleep during call options.
Difference in memory in use
I have problem with my TyTN II, I don´t know why, but when I control the state of the memory in use, it seems to be 112 MB in use and 19,4 MB free. But when I control every item (Applicationdata, Confimgr, ProgramFiles etc., even including hidden files) and calculate total then it seems to be only 45 MB in use. Can anyone explain this
thanks
I have a T-Mob MDA Var 3. When i make a call on battery power the backlight doesn't stay on. annoyingly, the only way to turn it on during a call is to hit the power button.
This seems silly as I might want to place someone on hold or start a conference, etc. I have set the backlight defaults not to turn off on external or battery power.
Does anyone know how how I can stop the backlight turning off during calls?
Thanks
Disable fast sleep and sleep ...
Use KaiserTweak below:

Thanks for the quick reply - i will try that!
Not another lazy noob....
I've tried Kaiser Tweak, and verified the registry settings. I've used google, the XDA Forum and the XDA Wiki. Still, my backlight/call end problem persists. My ROM is the most current version.
Can anyone help? I really like the Kaiser, but this problem makes it all but unusable.
Thanks,

did you soft reset?
Yes....I've run Tweak and soft reset numerous times.
Thanks for checking. I'm not sure I haven't missed something.

Mine does this. very anoying especially when calling voicemail or an automated call system where you have to press keypad numbers. Have to keep turning the phone on to press the keypad.
Hi,
When I don't use my diamond, after some seconds the screen just gets a bit darker but never disappears. the buttons don't seem to block ether...
In settings/system/advanced I changed first and second item to 30 en 40 seconds...
When I push the on/off button everything seems to be turned off...
What to do?
Thanks

So "Turn off device" doesn't work? What ROM are you using?
When I push the on/off button on the upper left edge of the diamond, the screen turns black and all buttons are turned off... just like it should..
I want the same thing to happen after (let's say) 30 seconds..
Now the screen gets a bit more "unclear" but never really trurns off.... (completely black...)
Hop you understand it better now.
Thanks
I think I understand. I'm trying to localize the problem. If, in the Power settings you set Turn off Device to 40s, it should do just that.
If it doesn't, there are two possiblities:
A program you installed won't let the device to turn off.
A bug in the ROM you are using.
Please note that the official ROMs don't have this problem, so if that's your case, perhaps you can give a list of the software you installed to see if we can identify the culprit.
I don't consider a hardware failure, as the hard button seems to be working.
I downloaded the HTC new rom version 1.93.404.1 NLD and installed it (Diamond works much better now)
Installed programms:
Tomtom
Data on the run
Nodata
TF3D config
Total commander
Spb Time
Advanced config
S2P
Sprite backup
That must be all I think
Thanks you for your kind help
Your reply rang a bell!!!
In Spd Timer there is a setting: "No sleep on timers"
It was checked.
I unchecked it and now everything seems to be OK...
I still need to study what the setting itself does
Thanks (helping without knowing it... must be great)

Glad I could point you in the right direction

Looks like a software or a regedit is keeping it from doing so. Try resetting the device and see what happens.

I did a soft reset - nothing
I did a HARD RESET- nothing
I changed the rom - nothing , it still wakes up
This has nothing to do with ROM Dev. Moved to General
I don't have a clue what it is
Ok i have had this problem before. But it is when i put the phone in universal car cradle. It hits the camera button half way so when i put it to sleep, it wakes back up after about 3 seconds. Make sure none of the buttons are partially stuck.
Frank
yes , now it has no autofocus

UPDATE !!!!!
are you running igo8 in the background? Turning the phone off while running an *ahem* type of Igo8 may cause certain on/off issues...
I'm not running anything
Sorry bout the late reply. I work during the day so i didnt see this till now.
What i would suggest is turn on the camera and goto the settings. Make sure it asks for full press. Then attempt to take a picture, by half pressing the camera button, as this will make it auto focus. If the little broken square in middle of screen doesnt show, then it has something to do with your problem.
My problem wasnt an actual problem but rather an observation that i thought could help.
Ive just done a couple tests on my phone and the camera button is the only thing that causes this issue. I hold it half way as to not activate the camera and then turn the phone off to sleep, but after precisely 3 seconds, it wakes back up
Hope this helps you find it. As for solving it, i don't know. Possibly a few harder presses of the camera button???? Please, though, dont take what i am saying as Gospel as it may be something totally unrelated
Frank
i tried the thing with the setting for the full and half press and nothing , it was the same - the camera shoots ONLY WITH A FULL PRESS !
The good news is I took it for a repair
Hope u get it back soon with minimal repairs needed
Frank
more bad news - it turnd out that the camera button is realy stuck on auto focus but the realy bad thing is I CAN'T FIND A SPEAR CAMERA BUTTON
help me pleaseeee !!!!
I have this exact problem...press power button--3 seconds later phone back on again. Have flashed 6 different ROM's and it has not removed this issue. It is not any of my software because this remains before I add any of my software after a flash.....as per OP i am unable to do a hard reset.
I have done many searches on the forums and continually come up with the 10 second backlight fix....this is not the same issue.
If some of the senior members could please help I would greatly appreciate it.

It's not listed on their site, but it might be worth contacting these people.
Hi, i know this might be a newbie problem but i cant find a solution. My kaiser screen dims after 30 secs and is set to turn off 3mins on battery which is fine for me when im using it normally, but its not working when i make a call, my screen turns off almost 10secs into the call which is really annoying when you need to travese a digital answering service, is there a fix for this at all?
Sorry might have found the solution
==================================
Q: How do I stop my screen from going off during a phone call?
A: Edit the registry using the instructions from this thread, or download Schap's Advanced Config or KaiserTweak. You can turn it off from there too
or just hit the Turn-on/off button, screen lights up and then hit "keypad"... there you go ... your convo is still taking place.

That really isn't a fix, I think he understand that you can do that and finds it annoying..
