SleepMode? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
Since the Diamond does not ring or vibrate when reveiving a new email while beeing in sleepmode i want to know if there is a way to completely disable sleepmode and just turn off the screen instead.

Try search... sms wakeup is one of the fixes you need.

I allready did that, and its working. But the diamond still doesnt wake up when i receive a new email. (I am using Windows Live pushmail)

Since im not using mail on my phone i dont really know, but im sure ive seen it somewhere.
Check link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=14379943

Sorry, maybe i am stupid, but i read all those threads allready and i couldn't find a solution. So if there is one, please give me the direct link. Thanks!

Don't know if this will help, but give it a shot anyways - since there doesn't seem to be a solution readily available.
Start-Settings-System
tap on Power
Go to Advanced Tab
Uncheck - 'turn off device if not used for. '
If that doesn't work - 'try unchecking turn off backlight' as well (doubt that's a really smart idea.. but what the hell)
Do let us know if this helps you out.

Logically speaking - that should work, but then - we are talking about Windows here.. logic usually takes a back seat when it comes to windows.
I mean - if it weren't so, then how come a windows mobile phone doesn't alert you when you receive an email!!
**** happens eh.
anyways - thanks to the developers on the forum who are coming out with tweaks and fixes and solutions.
Appreciate it, mate.

It sure helps him, but the battery power will be gone in notime.

HE ASKED FOR IT

Yes that does work of course. But with the screen allways on, the battery sucks. I only want to disable sleep-mode. I still want the device to turn off the screen and backlight and see how much battery it needs.

Device to turn off - means Sleep mode!

Options -> Sounds and Notifications -> Notifications -> Messaging: New e-mail message
Turn vibrate and sound on. Why its disabled as default i dont know.
The screen wont turn on, but it will probobly vibrate and sound.

With the backlight switching off on its own - you should have SOME saving on the battery (hopefully)

To be on the safe side - Check DISPLAY MESSAGE as well.
That should (technically) wake up the phone... right?

It probobly wont, why should everyone ask for sms wakeup in that case?

It still does not wake up with display message on.
When i disable sleepmode by choosing "device to turn off" i have the problem that the display stays on. It does reduce the backlight, but it is still on and eats the battery really fast.

Well, one can always try.
Actually for me - the SMS thing was weird (before applying the tweaks i.e.).
I had enabled Display Message, Sound and Vibrate ..
Now when I tested it - it worked.. but I was surprised that it would work only for CERTAIN service providers!!
now.. when I would get a text message from an MTC number (my provider) it would alert... and vibrate and display the message.
But if I would get a text message from Wataniya (another provider in the country), No alert, No Vibration!!

I have tried that, and every time i restart the phone the box is once again checked automatically?
I want the phone on all the time, since I just have to press the power button to set the phone in sleep mode.
It is very frustrating when chatting over msn and the phone goes to sleep all the time.
Is there a register tweak to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance.

As stated about about dialing extension and things. For instance when I go to pay a bill over the phone. I dial the number .. it asks me to input my account number .. Look at the screen and its black and I have to hit the power button to bring it back to life to input the number .. Then I have to do the same thing when inputing my credit card number and etc etc.
It just get a little annoying for those that input numbers over an automated system. From some people its not a problem and the powering off the screen really quick is nice ..
I belive the setting on Kaiser Tweak was Fast Sleep. You have the ability to change that and not effect the devices normal sleep setting.

Screen off during phone call tweaks

There are two listed tweaks for preventing the Diamond from turning the screen off during a call. I've done them both, and nothing happens. Are these tweaks confirmed to work for all phones, or just on some? It says the "Sleep" one works on european ROM -- do all European phones have the same rom?
I'm having a simmilar problem... It seems that the screen turns off after a set period of time... I thought that the light sensor was supposed to only shut the screen off when you bring it up to your ear, light gets dull... I have the phone sitting in well lit room and done got near it yet the screen still turns off..?

I've read that if you remove the stylus while in a call, then the note program comes on automatically, but the screen will also stay on until the call is finished

yes, you are right and this is in my humble opinion the best solution. this way even if u touch with yr ear/cheek the screen no funny noises and no unwanted programs popping up not to mention that this way u have the choice and if you don't need the screen it stays black.
If you want to turn your screen back on during a call just simply press the round center button once and it will turn back on. no need for any hacks.
Thanks for the help
From what I have read, the phone screen should only turn off the screen when you bring it up to your ear/there is low light on the light sensor in the handsets ear speaker... My phone's screen shuts itself off after 3 seconds or so, doesnt matter where light is... If you just disable fastdormant (1 to 0), does the phone still shut itself off after x seconds or does it wait until there is a change in light?
Can anyone confirm/clarify the above???
Also is it possible to reactivate the display once the phone detects a sizeable change in brightness again? From reading the links posted, no one has found a solution for this one yet..?
The screen will not turn off as long as you continue to touch the center button during call. The default setting work fine with me until I need to get information during a call yesterday. The center button touch allow you to use other functions during phone call.
[EDIT] STRANGELY ENOUGH, AFTER ENTERING THE REGISTRY AND JUST LOOKING AT THE VALUE OF THE KEYS HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM BELOW...
[/EDIT]
My problem is that my phone won't go into the sleep mode when calling. Covering the phone doesn't help (I've tested the light sensor, and that still works)
For me this feature is a positive thing so I would like it to work again.
The registry entry for the EnableFastDormant is still on "1". The HTC Phone Skin is loaded (without that skin it doesn't work either).
When searching the forum I come across people who want their screen to stay on... I want the opposite to happen again. Anybody a suggestion?

Check this reg entry as well:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep - 1
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\LightSensorPollingEnable - 1
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\BatteryTimeoutInCall - 5
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\BatterySuspendTimeoutInCall - 5
Also,
Start - Settings - System
Power
Advanced
Check the following:
Turnoff Backlight if device is not used for 30 Sec
Turn off Device if not used for 40 sec
All the best
Note: After changing Registry Entries.. (if you had to).. do a soft reset.

I know... However, it bothers me as it doesn't really show realiability. Why didn't it work in the first place!? I'm experienced enough to know that I didn't do anything to the registry.

Problem with 1.93 ROM
Hey,
I cant seem to get the screen to stay on during a phone call using Asia WWE 1.93 ROM....
I have got BattTimeoutIncall = 0
BattSuspendIncall = 0
Phone\Sleep = 0
EnableFastdormant = 0
but the screen still turns off if i leave the phone sitting on the desk under light exactly when the call time ticks over to 4 sec (0:03 to 0:04)...
Ideas anyone, is this an issue with v1.93 rom?
Thanks.
this works!
Does this still enable the light sensor???
Still want the light sensor to work - i.e. turn off the screen when i bring it up to my head...

It works, but when I enable the light sensor polling in reg it goes off after about 4 secs... This is with a very bright light and no movement of the phone (sitting on flat surface)...
the only on of thos I see in my reg is HKCU phone sleep
where the hell are the others?

This is actually the best option because it turns off the screen when you want to conserve battery life.
So I just press the Center button when I want to see the screen to use the keypad or speakerphone.
Also, I have disabled the phone shade (curtain) by doing this:
Code:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Phone/PhoneLockEnable = 0

How to keep screen from switching on when SMS received.

Hi all,
I can't seem to discover how to achieve this and I'm tearing my hair out.
When my Ignito is in standby (ie, screen off and resting in my pocket) and I receive a text message, the screen comes back to life and it plays a little sound. I'm happy to hear a noise, but I can't work out how to make sure the screen stays off.
Picture the scenario: Walking along a busy road, a txt arrives, unheard in my pocket. The screen comes to life. Then the touch sensitivity comes into play and suddenly my phone is carrying out random touchscreen activated functions, including some rather long and unexpected phone calls to my brother in law!!!
How can I ensure the screen stays off? In Settings/Sound and notifications, my "receive text message" only has "play sound" checked. "display message on screen" is off. So I expect the screen really ought to stay off!!!
What am I missing here?
Cheers,
Mike

You can stop your device from getting awake by downloading the Advanced Config app here on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151
Then, when you installed it, you select the option 'Messaging'....from there you go to: 'wake up on new sms' and disable this option....hope this will help you to solve your problem
Thanks for your help.
I have already downloaded this app (advanced config version 3.2) but under messaging, there is no "wake up on new sms" option.
Is there a registry key I can amend manually? I've had a look around my device but can't see a suitable "wake on SMS" key.
Then again, I'm quite new to windows mobile...

Strange on my copy of advanced config 3.2 i have that option....have you soft resetted your device after installing the app??...might be worth a try.
If you set it to 0, does that mean the device does not wake up when there is a message? Do you still hear the sound? How would you then unlock the phone?
(Sorry, I still don't have the Touch Pro but will get it once it's available here )

Yes...the phone doesn't wake up when you receive a new text...i'm not sure if it will make a sound....(in thought not so) i'm not sure...good luck
Yes, it will sound accordingly but the screen will not come on (wake up). That option to turn it on/off is available in Advance Config V 3.2.
Well, my Advanced config definitely does not have the option as described. However, i made the registry key myself and it works quite nicely.
Strangely, now when I receive a message and the device in standby, it plays my "text received" sound twice. Odd indeed. Unless the device is locked and in standby, when only plays the sound once. I can live with this.
Thanks everyone for your help

Locale app doesnt work right?

So this app seems amazing! But I cant seem to get it to work right. I am assuming it will work like SPB phone suite where it can silence my phone and turn off all my data during certain hours and then turn everything back on after that time slot is over. It turns on properly and I love that part but it doesnt seem to turn off. Even after the time slot has ended I have to turn my ringer back up and turn on my BT and GPS. Is it supposed to turn those back on for me or am I missing something?

Check your "defaults". The need to be explicitly set otherwise it will not make changes when it doesn’t have an applicable situation.
Hahahaha, much better! Thank you!
locale
does anyone know how to disable a notification about profile change in Locale?
I want to turn the sound on at 6.30 in the morning but don't want to be waken up by the "ding" it makes when default profile is applied.
Remove Notifications from the list of settings for the situation
Got that already! I have to praise the locale support! sent them an email with this question and got the response back. There is also help section when you click menu within locale so i guess i should have read this first!
I misunderstood the notification feature - I thought it was refering to system global notifications like disabling globally vibration if new sms arrives etc.
So thumbs up to locale support! if only other companies were so helpful!
locale not working in background mode
I used power manager, but because i can't buy apps on the market (NL) so i want to try locale, everything is set, but i have to start the program and then it switches to battery / connected status... So if i plug in my phone i want locale will react immediately instead i have to start it (again and again) and when it's open in my foreground it works perfect. But when it's on background it doesn't work... Can't find settings for this... Any suggestions?

Haptic feedback disabled, still vibrates for long screen touch

Hi folks,
I swear I had this solved once but after a factory reset I can't find a way to do it again:
Settings > Sound > Feedback > Haptic feedback disabled
In fact everything under Feedback is disabled.
Yet when on the home screen I long press an icon in order to move it or delete it a feedback vibration occurs.
Is there another setting for this?
Cheers,
Daniel
Hi
under feedback tab uncheck all the 4 boxes and note you're not in silent mode(vibrating)
then check the issue and report the result.
Goodluck
Thanks a lot,
that's exactly what I did.
Please see attachment.
For some weird reason the vibrating
still happens for long screen touches
(but not for anything else).
In other words, is there a way to completely shut the phone up vibration-wise?
Am not sure about TouchWizz but I think other launchers have the option to disable the long press feedback..sorry can't remember for sure as I've been running ICS for quite some time

Try downloading "Spare parts" app from Google Play and disabling "Haptic feeback" from it...worked for me.
In Settings >> Sound , you've got "Vibration intensity". Pull all sliders all the way to the left and this will get rid of all vibrations (well at least I didn't notice any since I changed that).
I am not sure if it disables the "battery charged" vibration though, and don't want to risk being woken up at night to check
