ok, so as the title says. I installed kaisertweaks a little while ago and now it does not seem to be chargin when connected to the pc.
one thing, kaisertweaks isnt realled a installed program is it? it doesnt seem to be installed on my tilt, just a user interface that interacts with the phone.
when I plug up the phone, the light goes amber but after about 2 minutes it turns off and just blinks. I dont know if it was something I checked off or not, but I do not recall checking anything off to do with the battery.
i think u did check something and i know for sure in settings there is an option that disables charging when plugged to pc.
explore the settings especially battery.
one possibility is the option within your "power" setting menu...
click the power/battery icon on the top right corner & click the "advanced" tab ...
bottom portion reads:
"when device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC"
see if the option is ticked !!!

this is the one i was referring to. thanks for exact settings option.
nope, it was unchecked. I would think it had to be something with kaiser tweaks but I didnt touch any charging settings or saw any that I know of. umm

I keep my Tilt connected to a PC all the time when I am not using it.... To charge it, and transfer files etc.
The problem is that it never appears to turn off when connected, specifically the screen. Now I don't know if phone screens really suffer from any type of "burn-in", but I'm sure there is some type of limited life on the screens.
I have set the Start > Settings > System > Power > Advanced to turn off the device on external power after a couple of minutes, but it does not appear to do anything.
The settings in Start > Settings > System > Backlight > External Power does seem to work. I set it to turn off backlight after 30 seconds and it does.
I often hit the power button on the phone to turn it to standby when I go to sleep but the screen is often on again when I get to it. It think if it gets a call it might wake the screen, and never shut back off.
How can I ensure that the screen stays off (or powers off after activity) while the device is connected to the PC?
thx
Well there is a light in there that can burn out. Um, what happens if you hit that side button that turns that light off? Works for me when my preciouses is blugged into my comp.
the problem with pushing power button when connected to computer...it turns the screen off, but also breaks the connection to Active Sync for some reason..it charges the phone but activesync connection goes down.
but im a newb on the tilt so there might be an option to enable active sync with display off.

ooooooh you know what, whenever I close wow out when I'm done, there is a window saying that active sync was disconnected. I just thought it timed out or something. Hmmmmm
After is has synced do you really need it to keep refreshing?

That works, but the problem is if someone calls (or maybe if some other notification comes in...SMS, email, calendar appointment) it lights back up and stays on.
I'm not concerned with ActiveSync disconnecting, I just want to plug it into my computer to leave charging and I would rather not power the device ALL the way down.
-thx
I guess I need to pay more attention to mine.

There are programs that you can install that will shut off your screen but leave the rest of the device active. I wouldn't worry about the screen burning though. My Wizard was on like that all the time for over a year (stupid WM6 bug prevented you from turning the phone off if it was plugged in to USB), and my screen never showed any adverse effects.
As long as your backlight goes off, you will be fine.
Hi,
I'm having an issue with my diamond. If I connect it to my PC, no matter if it's via AS or as harddrive, the Diamond will go into standby after the period I entered in energy-setting (charging via usb disabled of course).
However this is very unhandy when droping files as I always have to touch the screen to keep the connection alive and no, I don't want it to charge via USB
Is there some Reg-Tweak telling the Diamond not to fall asleep when it's "penetrated"?
I used the search but that subject didn't come up.
Thanks
you can untick in start - settings - system - power - advanced tab the "Turn off device if not used for..." option for both battery and external power use.
that should prevent your phone for going into standby while you're connected to the pc
Start -> Settings -> System -> Power ->Advanced
On external power
remove check from:
Turn off device if not used for

I already knew this trick, but it's uncomfortable. I mean the phone has to realize it's connected to the pc somehow, at least via AS it does. So why doesn't the Diamond think "Hey, I'm currently connected, stupid idea to go sleeping"
No one else having this issue??
It also recognizes running Teeter, preventing it to go stand-by. Isn't there some registry entry, a list of programs, to prevent if from standing by? Probably Teeter does this itself, as foreground running application, while ActiveSync probably does not.
Solution? Run teeter while connected to the PC
I got my TD2 yesterday and have been playing extensively with it (and like it), but don't see the point of the power button appearing to turn off the display when pressed and then back on again when pressed again...I kept turning off the display by accident and hope there may be a way to disable this "feature" ?
Also, by unticking some option somewhere, the little "Quick Launch" thingy in the top right next to the speaker icon has gone and I don't know how to get it back...!
This is my first touchscreen, so I'm finding it quick difficult to scroll menus without actually selecting something whilst moving my finger/stylus up and down.
The powerbutton is meant to do this. The screen goes into sleep mode after a period of time and you click it to turn it on again. You will get used to it
The quick launch thingy? To the right of the speaker? The only thing to the right is the task manager. Not sure you can turn that off.
You will get used to the touchscreen and things with the phone will improve once the guys on here get to grips and customise it.

Go to settings and click on the left softbutton to see more settings.
Then click the taskmanager settings and go to the third tab.
Click the option to enable the quickmenu there.
Hi,
my display is always on while plugged in to the usb cable. It doesn't matter if it is charging or fully charged if the display is going on while plugged in it won't go off. it doesn't even lock itself.
i only can use the power button to shut it off.
so it happened that it was on the whole night because i had it plugged in and got an sms in the night.
has anyone a solution for that?
regards
I hoped that someone knows the option to enable or disable to shut off the display while plugged in...
no one?
If I remember correctly, there used to be an option in settings>applications>development, something called "keep screen on when plugged in" or something like that.
There definitely is the option somewhere, but I can't seem to find it in JVB (maybe it's only in earlier froyo roms?)
I would back up your data and factory reset if you cannot find any settings .
Display goes off when connected to USB at what i have set display timeout to .
In Display settings .

That feature was available in Froyo 2.2 only. Not present in 2.2.1 and above.
Settings -> Applications -> Developement -> Keep screen on (while charging AC/USB).

Thank's allot.
I have the 2.2 version and found the option. I turned it off and will be happily ever after.
Kind regards...
Just like the title says. I was in a car accident a few days ago and my phone got thrown around and the amoled is cracked. I turned off the option to turn on usb debugging when connected and now I need to find a way to get it turned on so that I can control my phone through the pc. Any ideas?
You'll need to navigate by going with where it is approximately on the screen. Then to verify that it's connected just adb devices if nothing returns try it again. Here are some pics to show you where to press on the screen (red arrows show where).
NOTE: this starts at the settings screen to get there just press menu then the bottom right corner.
Thank you for the screens. I guess I should have mentioned that I'm running CM7, so I might have a little trouble with the first step, adjusting for the extra cm settings and adw settings. Thanks again.
here's the Settings for ADW EX.
hopefully its in the same spot.
