lock in the taskbar - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

hi! i am really ashamed to ask, i had various WM devices, but with Diamond i am really perplexed. After a period of inactivity obviously my screen gets locked, which is normal. but when i want to do something with the phone, i press POWER button and then i see a lock near E (G, 3G) icon. if i press the send button, it gets pressed but when i want to press start button the screen is locked. what to do? this is completely amazing how this little device screwed me up.u can see that i am not a noob, but what to do, things happen.
please help me, as i cannot realize what to do.
PS: in search there is nothing about this, at leas i could not find.

Do you have a warranty?

no, i bought it from Italy. why do i need the warranty? the device is functioning, it;s just the lock. i can work with it, but only after a SR

Maybe I am missing something but is that lock icon actually part of some app? Can you touch the icon with your stylus? Anything happen?

Kaiser goes to today screen on resume from standby

If my Kaiser goes into standby, say on the mail screen, if I hit the power button or slide the slider to turn it back on, it goes back to the today screen.
Is there a way to stop this?
You probably have an application that does this, there are a lot offering this feature.
Gah,
I have kaisertweak, phweaver and HHC installed, could it be one of those?
Password
Are you password protecting your phone? If so, this can cause the Today screen to pop-up after you resume from standby, even if you are not prompted to enter a password.
nope, no password protect - I have WIMP, I *want* anyone who steals it to use it
May it's the setting 'Today timeout:' under Settings/Personal/Today/Items...
have the same problem with my touch. idea anyone? have the HHC installed, maybe it's an option of this program?
still have this problem - driving me crazy! plz help ...
bump old thread bcuz im having this issue now too...& this seems to have never been resolved.
it never used to happen, but i just got an rma w/ a a new rom 162 instead of 157 i was running on the old phone. so i'm assuming its a "feature" set in the new rom, but its annoying. also its frustrating bcuz i cant use that "camera workaround" where you cover the camera, hit the power button to sleep it, then resume...thus im back to stuck w/ a crap camera.
any thoughts/suggestions? thanks.

no, I have unchecked box of Today timeout, but still doesnt working.
When i resume Kaiser from standby (by press On/Off button) then always go to Today screen.
Probably need a soft reset for the shell to pick up the change in settings.

No, this step doesn't working. When I push On/Off button, all aplicaton (for ex. sms/mail) will be minimazed and I'll see only Totay screen
There is no solution?

I solve this problem It cause a BatteryStatus TodayPlugIn.. thanks for your help very much...

Device lock/unlock shortcut

I've done a search and cannot find the information.
Basically i've removed the trayicons on the bottom of my wing. I am using battery status, but sometimes it does not lock the device automatically. Until i lock it manually first.
So i am trying to find the shortcut or link to device lock/unlock.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Well.... if you are using the Wing then, keep holding the end call button. That will lock the device. Unlock will be same as before.
Hope that helps.

Don't know... on the Wing you can't hold one of the buttons down to put the phone on vibration mode, either. One phone has one feature, the other one doesn't.

HAHA, sometimes it's a good thing to loose your temper, then. lol
This doesn't work on my Wing. It's probably because I'm using TouchIT which isn't based from the TMO rom.

how to end a call

May be stupid question but...
When somebody calls... how do you people end the call?
When I click the right lower button the diamond tries to make a new call to the person I just recieved a call from.
Now I simply do noting...
I hit the part of the screen with a red rectangle that says "End Call".
Just push the "end" (phone down) button.
TDO
My screen is completly black... even after tweaking (which didn't seem to work)

So hit the unlock button, turn your screen on and hit end call on the screen. That's what I do every time.
As TDO mentioned, is pressing the bottom-right hardware button not an easy enough way?
Or is that the button that you are pressing, and it's calling the person back? How peculiar...

That's right....
I did the suggested tweaks but my screen keeps turning of when somebody calls.... very annoying
When I get a call and it finally end, I simply do nothing... but I don't think this is a correct way... but I don't see any other convenient one
Sorry to be dumb... if you think this is a silly question, just don't react OK!?
intersting problem.
do you have a t mobile version of the diamond, i think the buttons are in a different location on the Tmob diamond. maybe a flashed ROM will not correctly map the keys on this device.
just an idea, maybe you could provide more details on your device to help us help you.
Tried the noSleep!!.cab that's here somewhere? Then maybe the screen won't turn off when you call, and you can use the softkey.
It's obviously not working like most of ours are for one reason or another... on mine, a UK 1.37.405.1 WWE, I just hit the bottom right 'phone down' key; the screen comes on, just in time to see the call end.
If I were you, I'd flash it to one on the UK standard roms, either a 37 or 93, and you'll be sorted.

always loved scandinavia... now even more.... PROBLEM SOLVED.
Despite different tweaks (after searching the forum.... really,.. I did some searching), NoSleep!!.cab keeps the phone "on" so I can easily end the call like it should.
Does your 'end call' button work at other times? E.g. when pressed-and-held does it switch profile (or whatever you've got it set at)?
I'm just curious as to why you're seeing such strange behaviour in phone mode!
Mathew
hey man... thnaks for your interrest...
When I puch it the Diamond goes in "Sleep" mode....
What it does when calling.... now it hangs up the call just like when you click the softkey on the screen.
Initially, when puching THAT button, the phone rerang the last caller.... very strange..
Anyway... now I'm perfectly happy....
Strange indeed! Oh well, at least you're sorted which is all that matters!

[Q] Lock Screen won't "Unlock"

The lock screen on my Droid will not unlock. It will move when I try to swipe it, but it snaps back and won't open. Knew it won't help, but did a battery pull, re-booted and nothing changed. I can't get to any kind of menu that I know of because it is an unrooted, stock phone. I can't use the phone at all if I can't unlock it. PLEASE HELP!!!
Come on, no responses? I know someone on here can offer up something...

u sure u swipe/pull ALLLLL the way to the right?
It happens to me sometimes for the phone call, when you did not complete the whole sliding on the very 1st time. Dunno why, but a double power button click (off screen/on) solves the problem.

[SOLVED]HTC One M7 thinks I use buttons, doesn't respond.

Hi all!
First of all, I'm not sure if I'm doing everything right here, so excuse me if I'm doing something wrong
I'm new.
I've had my HTC One M7 from aliexpress.com for 2 weeks and 2 days now.
Have had great fun of it, nothing seemed wrong, was working perfectly. There were some rumours about an unofficial android-version that was put on this phone, which might be the problem..
Everytime I turn the phone screen on it thinks I hold/doubletap/tap/repeatedly tap the home button, and sometimes when I power it off it thinks I hold the volume down-button and takes a screenshot.. When I finally get to type my 4-digit pin code, it unlocks, goes to home screen, does the same again. Seems like my phone thinks I'm using the buttons..
I've changed settings (in a legit official way via Settings) of my home button to Hold for menu, Hold and swipe up for Google Search, and double-tap for recent apps..
Have tried factory reset twice, have tried rebooting it over and over, have tried almost anything.. I'm at the point of buying a new phone now, because I fear that HTC will not help me because it's an unofficial version of Android.. Any suggestions?
Everytime I open an app it just closes it and goes to home, sometimes before it does that it opens recent apps.. After that it just freezes and I can't touch it. Sometimes after waiting a couple of seconds, I can tap the screen and maybe it's fast enough to open for example WhatsApp, and then it just shuts off and does what I just stated.
Really weird!
I'm quite desperate. Could a custom ROM (Cyanogen or Android lollipop) fix this perhaps?
Please, help

This is purely a hardware issue. Your home button is somehow always in "on" position. Given it's a capacitive button, it could be the digitizer or a scratch on the home button area

This is somewhere about what I mean, read my reply also.
This might even be closer to what I mean.
Should I just send it back to HTC or can I fix this myself, with your heroic help?

Seems like just the thing I wrote. Considering it's a hardware issue you could replace the screen-digitizer assembly by yourself if you are familiar with that kind of work. I tried once on my old Desire and fried the motherboard, so I don't have cojones to do it [emoji6]
