When I'm trying to call/receive a call, the screen is really messed up. Nothing appears, I get the start menu at the top which says "Phone" on it, the soft key labels at the bottom, and then the part of the screen where the dialer/call status/all that stuff is supposed to be just shows up white. I think it may have started when I tried to answer a call while my phone was locked, or maybe after I changed around the call settings with KaiserTweak so it wouldn't sleep/fast sleep during calls. I reverted those settings to the default, restarted my phone, and still no luck.
I don't really have anything that valuable on there so I'm not opposed to just re-flashing my ROM, but does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.
Hi Guys...
I have the latest of Duttys Roms installed, and Gyrator 2.
Whenever i get an incoming call and i pick the phone up it auto-answers (only when i actually pick up the phone)
Im just wondering if anyone can point me to any non-standard areas that might be set up to do this? its annoying!
Thanks!
Very annoying indeed...I have exactly the same problem and I too have Gyrator.
I think it's when I try and 'silence' the phone when pressing the vol + or- button.
OK I solved my own problem, it seems. Just go to Gyrator 2, tap Menu>Events. See the last option 'Answer Call' or something, just remove that particular event.
Yep, confirmed. Thats the problem.
Gyrator was set to hit the 'send' button when the phone is picked up.
Thanks!

Hi,
after installing some software apps (numerous freeware utilities), my diamond does not ring anymore when I am called (it does vibrate).
I have checked everything but cant switch the darn ringing on again - other sonds work fine, it just doesn't ring. This is the second time this has happend - after the first time the hard-reset fixed the problem, but then I reinstalled several programs again and the same problem is back again.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do about this without doing a hard reset?
Perhaps there is a Tweak utility where I can see if the ringing has been switched off?
Please help.
Thanks in advance - I would really appreciate any suggestions.

didi you installed pointUI and the SystemInternalsV2????
you might not like the answer, but hard reset has fixed that problem for me with the diamond and 2 other htc phones i had in the past.

What is pointUI ? - I have the standard diamond branded user interface from O2 with all the system internals and the ROM version 1.93.207.2 German.
Please help me - I really do not want to do a hard reset because the last time I could not retrieve my back up with the Sprite backup utility .
Thanks in advance for any help.
i can't believe i'm now posting in this. i remember telling you to post this on the main diamond forum and now i'm having the same problem.
i've tried putting the ringtones in the internal storage, and on the phone's main memory, sometimes i hear the ring for a split second before it goes silent.
from searching, it seemed like some people have had this issue with some SRS WOW program but I don't have that.
have you been able to resolve this? I too would like to avoid a hard reset if at all possible, i just got the phone setup the way i want it and it would take a ton of time to get it back....
This may sound stupid, but give it a try, it has helped before...
Go to the settings tab in TF3D.
Tap Sound
Set Volume at 100%
Sometimes, the ring volume gets reset to 0 by itself, and it took me 4 weeks before I found it, after trying about everything, from uninstalling every app to hacking the registry.

that's usually one of the first places i check... i'll keep it in mind though.
i think i might have an idea what my issue might be, so it was working this morning but i noticed microsoft's voice command was announcing the name of the caller as it was ringing. so i think it might be an issue with the msvc. i'm going to try disabling the voice announce and see what that does...
Problem Solved!
Hi,
guess what - I finally found the solution
I never bothered to read the Diamond manual as I believed the user friendly interface to be self-explanitory - however, I overlooked something very important!
When setting the volume up or down by means of the buttons on the left hand side of the Diamond, the usual vertical bargraph type of display appears and reacts according to how the adjutment is made with the volume up or down buttons, this is clear. There is also the possibility to mute the phone or to put it into vibration-only mode.
Now, at the top left hand side, there is an arrow (looks like this: <). If you quickly tap on that with the stylus before the screen goes away again, you will get a new screen for another setting - now this setting is for adjusting the ringing volume / mute / vibration settings (now the arrow is on the top right and looks like this: >
It is so simply expained: The system volume is not the same as the telephone ringing volume and just requires the quick click on the top left hand side of the screen and voila, bob is your uncle! You can then set the ringing volume up and your phone will ring again.
I wantend to know why the heck the ringing volume just changes or what caused the problem and I have also been able to determine why the ringing volume settings change - to explain:
When setting the SYSTEM VOLUME to mute - then the PHONE RINGING VOLUME is also muted! However, when then setting the system volume up again, the ringing volume still remains muted! This is important to know and it can also happen accidentally or it may be forgotten to reset the ringing volume. I dare to say that this was not really thought about very well and I hope the developers will change this or show a VOLUME STATUS for both the SYSTEM and RINGING volumes somewhere on the desktop/today screen.
... or would that not be a good project for a developer here on this forum perhaps? I would appreciate a comment here...
Thanks anyway for the kind responses and willingness for your help.
I have to date still not read the actual over 260 page little manual booklet, but it probably is described in there. Moral of the story: RYFM (for those who know what that stands for)
Amendment: Found it described on page 42 in the manual booklet - it's actually described there but can be easily overlooked and it is not described that the system volume settings affect the ringing volume settings.
Ok, so the phone rings now but I have a similar problem with my GPS receiver
I will open another thread for this - hopefully someone can help me.
Best regards,
Mike - Germany.
I had the same problem.
It happened to me.
All the system sounds were fine, but the ring wasn't there.
Checked settings, change ringtone, tried a lot of stuff.
I was begginning to think about a hard reset when I found my problem origin:
At least in the ROM that I use (Shaks), when you press one of the volume keys in the side of the phone, you change system and ring volume.
If I press it all down, it goes to zero then vibrate then silent, and normally the system and ringer volumes are equal when you do this.
In that system volume screen that appears when you press volume key, there is a arrow in the top left. If you press it, you'll go "ringer volume" screen. I noticed that system volume was in maximum but the ringer volume didn't fallow it.
That said, if your ROM uses the volume keys in that same way, press that arrow and check if the ringer volume is on too.
Ok, first off, I'm well aware that there are many topics that appear to cover what I'm asking about. I've searched them. Second, I know where the "Sounds and Notifications" option is, and have been there. I'll get to that further down.
I've had this issue since I've gotten the phone. I'm not entirely sure if it's due to apps installed or not, since it's been doing when I've had some installed and when I didn't. I have tried hard resetting my device as well. My phone will play the sound of an incoming text, flash the light, all that just fine... for the first five or so texts. After that, the phone will wake up, it will show the notification on screen, but it WON'T play the sound, nor flash the light.
Naturally, the first time I noticed this, I went into the options menu to see what was up. All the settings were right. I hit the play button to test the file... nothing. I hit it again, nothing. I hit stop, then play, and it started up. Then my notifications were ok again, for about five or so texts. If my phone is on vibrate, it's the same case. It'll vibrate for the first five or so, then stop until I go into the settings.
I don't have a clue what could be causing this, so any and all help or suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated. Thanks.
For some reason my "phone" app won't let me end a call now. It could be gingervolt related but I'm not sure, and I don't have enough posts yet to post to the dev forum.
I can hit the end button and it says call ended, but the icon in the notification bar still says connected and the call stays active. So far the only way I've found to fix it is reboot the phone, which is rather annoying.
Anyone have any ideas?
