Two gigantic annoyances of my ATT Tilt (with HTC ROM on it) that I simply can't stand anymore.
1.) When I am in a phone call the screen turns off so if I need to use the keypad I have to press a button to see the screen
2.) When I am in a phone call the screen does not show the keypad I usually have to turn on the screen, click the KEYPAD button before I actually get to enter numbers
This is all Fing annoying because I have to go through it everytime I check my voicemail...
I tried using the search but didn't come up with anything...
Also, what do you all use for registry editing on your Kaiser? I still haven't changed that registry entry to get the WM6 keypad on (vs the HTC which was better than the TERRIBLE ATT one)...
Thanks
Kaiser Tweak, a sticky on top of this sub-forum. First issue adressed is just that, Kaiser going to bed mid-call
Seriously, a brilliant tool. Give it a test ride.
PHM Registry is a nice freeware tool for the Kaiser. Alternatively CeRegEditor will allow you to change the registry via activesync on your pc.
Is there a way to lock onscreen phone buttons?
Everytime someone calls, and diamond is in my pocket I either accept or reject call when trying to get it out of pocket.
So can I dectivate touch screen during incoming call?
Is there any tweak for this?
Greets guys
dont own a diamond but a quickfix...get bigger jeans.
No way... too big balls will bounce
resolved!!!
the fastest way to solve your problem is to install s2u2 (slide to unlock) newest version is 1.05 what i know...
so with the right settings when incoming call, you'll need to slide then answer/reject call or setup slide to answer or other.
its great i LOVE IT..
I just installed it... then uninstalled it 5 mins later because it looks GHASTLY!!
To lock the touch screen buttons you simply hold down the End Call button for a few seconds. Or is it the physical buttons that you're trying to lock?
You didn't get it
I want touch screen buttons to be locked DURING incoming call to be sure i wont press them when trying to put it out of pocket.
Even if diamond is locked, when phonecall screen appears, those buttons are ACTIVE and that is baaaaad
and S2U2.... doesn't work!!!
When incoming call, original diamond call screen appears and buttons are ACTIVE - su2u DOES NOT lock device during the call although there's option called 'slide to answer'

You are right: I do not get you.
At least I do not see your point. You want to have the phone locked during incoming calls? - how senseless is that. Especially in that moment I want to have it unlocked to be able to accept it. That is the way all my phones worked.
What do you do, if you get a call and have a your cell in the pocket? I never encountered such problems...
Jeeeeeeeezzzzzzzz !!!
In Diamond one can answer a call in two ways:
1. press onscreen button
2. press hardware button
Onscreen button can be pressed accidentaly while taking out of pocket, pouch or whatever.
So: All i want is to have onscreen buttons INACTIVE while hardware buttons ACTIVE so I can answer call ONLY by pressing answer HARDWARE button.
Tapping onscreen button will do NO ACTION.
Hope now everything is clear, cause my english isn't very good
^^and you made a joke when i offered my quick fix =P
I have the same problem that by the time I get the case out of the case i find that I accidently answered or hung up because I accidentaly touched the screen,I tried slide to answer but it is not working properly on the Diamond
This would be helpful, I have the same problem sometimes.
I'll look for a registry setting.
s2u2 not working?????
if its bad, ugly, or something, put an self image as backgruond, maybee that would cheer u up, im using version 1.00 that dosent got the slide to answer working good(beta), so i turned it of, then it worked great and i can still use hardware buttuns to answer, and if u dont like the apperence just remove background an d remove clock, all thats left is a black screen and the slider...
This thing with enabled screen answer/ignore buttons pisses me off too... May be we can install a new dialler without screen buttons?
Really no one cares?

i don't think it's about anyone caring. i think it's about the diamond being a new device and no one having the tricks/tips/tweaks yet. patience
I understand that. But if nobody care about an issue no one will look for the solution. I would install another dialer but i do not know how to uninstall the existing one.

Be great if you (or anyone else?) could find a hack for this - I have the same problem when taking the phone out of the case. It would solve my (our) problem if only the hardware buttons could answer/reject an incoming call.

Since nobody answered this thread anymore... Did someone find out? Or did you give up?
I need this badly, stupid on screen buttons always go off
I had the same problem but after i did this I had no problem anymore.
The answer button in default phone skin(WM6) is much smaller so the risk of accidentally reject or answer the call is not so high.
I keep having trouble with my diamond gettting stuck on the numeric keypad. It happens on the standard ones and sometimes PCM keyboard.
I switch to the numeric keypad to enter a number and it wont switch back to letters after that. I have to select another keypad the go back to the one i had to get letters back. It has happened on two diamonds I owned.
Any seen this?
I have the Samsung ATIV S and for three days now, when I receive or place a call the screen goes dark and nothing is anymore functioning. Before that all seems normal, keypad, and other functions. Please help it is more then anoying not to be able to use the phone, I can dial but then the blank screen after a while all comes back to normal..
Whats the best way you have found to prevent pocket dialing? Ive turned ambient display off and have to use a patern to unlock now. It the only way Ive been able to stop it. It works but I dont like not being able to use ambient display and I also dont like how long it take to open the phone with the pattern.
Any ideas?

Well, other than the obvious, don't put it in your pocket pattern, pin, password is the answer. Ambient display can be turned back on with a screen lock set. Or set screen lock to swipe. That might be a help. Or possibly a flip case.
Enable the Smart Lock feature under Settings->Security. Then set up a trusted Bluetooth device (wearable, etc.) paired with the phone to bypass the screen lock when in range. I use a Motorola Keylink on the key chain in my pocket.
Then, before putting the phone in your pocket, touch the Power button to turn off the screen. To turn it on again, while connected to your trusted Smart Lock device, you merely have to swipe the screen after touching the Power key.
even with a pin on my phone i sometimes pocket dial... only happened like 2 or 3 times in the 4 months ive had the phone. somehow it pulled up the emergency dialer.

I never add emergency contacts because this kept happening. No emergency contacts + some kind of lock is the best solution. I just write an emergency phone number to contact in the "Owner Info" in settings, so an emergency phone number shows up on the lock screen in case I ever lose my phone, and someone finds it and plans to return it.

i dont have emergency contacts either. what im saying is on my lock screen it brings up the dial pad and half the time its selected the emergency dialer at the bottom of the pin screen.

I'm guessing you have a pattern as your unlock method, so the emergency dialer is always at the bottom as soon as the screen turns on.
Try changing it to a PIN, so you have swipe up first, and then the emergency dialer/PIN screen come up.

no like i said i have a pin as my lock screen challenge. somehow the phone manages to swipe up the dialer or the unlock button and then pulls up the emergency dialer and start tapping numbers.
Same issue here, whether i have pattern or pin its still managed to unlock phone and pocket dial from the emergency dialler. I did have my pebble watch in smart unlock, this did all manner of things from video call the missus to change settings and force me to restore rom as i couldnt work out the issues.
I have a flip case that i really do not want to use as phone is big enough, ambient display on or off it still does it!
