Help, I keep losing calls - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

When the phone rings and I put my hand in my pocket to get it out I invariable press to cancel the call.
Is there a way of disabling the touch screen for call answering?

Just read the attached thread, but I am not technical and I did not understand a word of it.
What does it do, will it solve my problem, and how do I do it?

sorry about that, it doesnt really tell you much, if you have a stock rom it may not install on your device, basically how it works as the image shows instead of having a standard on screen tap to answer, it is a slide function which will solve and accidental call answering or ignoring. this comes preinstalled on most of latest roms

I assume I have a stock rom as I have had the phone for about 6 months and its only got the original software installed, no updates or additions at all.

Anybody, still having problems losing calls

Spoke too soon.
Throttle lock only worked for first few days, now it will not activate when phone rings. It works on startup, also when phone rings when unit is already switched on. But when unit is asleep it does not activate then kicks in at the end of a call.
Tried playing with settings, rebooting, and re-installing, but still wont work properly.
So any other suggestions

HTC Home 2.1

I noticed on the Hermes page there is a HTC Home version 2.1 available for the Hermes that has been patched.
Is this available for the Kaiser? Noticed for a number of them it states uninstall previous version, but I dont really have the option to on my Vario 3.
I would like to know this too. Is there any info about it?
It works just fine.
So installing 2.1 the hermes version from:

then you won't get much, everything here is ripped from other roms and updated to fix bugs or enhance the original design. The original HTC Home had many issues such as weather was only for Euorpe, the email link never opened the correct folder, it would jsut open whatever was last opened, and there were other issues too. Someone fixed those issues, repackaged, and posted here. HTC HOme 2.1 fixed the weather app to allow any city to be added to the weather XML file.
Note: HTC Home is an offical release, but slightly modify in ver 2.1 with help from some of the users here.
I dont know what I would do without the "self made junk" it all works fantastically!
Well I will be looking to install 2.1 tomorrow over my vario 3 htc home 1.5.
Hey, I have a novel idea, lets all show up, start posting, and insult the developers and cookers here (who absolutely kick the arses of the OEM developers) and accuse their intense and brilliant efforts as being "home made junk".
I bet we get A LOT of good advice and help!
ALL ABOARD!!!!!!!!!!
Ok. lets not fight.
Does it or Doesnt it work for the Kaiser. Has anyone installed and tested it?
Does it work properly? are there any delays (processing wise)?
Does it actually make a difference, do you see and feel a difference?
Would you recommend it?

HELP!!!!
help needed, i have broken my htc touch phone...
first i downloaded the htc home v2.1 hermes cab and installed it , which all went fine but then i noticed that the brightness tab was working so i went and downloaded HTC Home v2.1 Directory And Brightness Fix and thats when things went really bad.
my phone rebooted and the screen turned off. when i plugged it into the pc after a timeout the screen came back on but if i touch it instead of getting brighter it turns off until it timesout again.
i un-installed both versions via the pc (although the UI didnt go back to the old 3 button tab home screen - still has 6)
this time a little better , screen does turn off when i touch it but it doesn't turn on either when i push the on button at the top until after the timeout.
dont know what to do now?

No idea what you did. Just back everything up without touching the screen and perform a hard reset. Hopefully you have an automatic installer when rom boots back to its original state.
can some1 test if igo8 is working nog with this home version?
thnx

This home version is probably cooked in the rom you're using.

Calling without notice

I received 2 messages from people that i called them during the night.
I think its the lock program for the diamond.
Sometimes, it unlockes itself instead of tapping unlock twice.
Is there a program/tweak for unlocking on a saver way?
I dont want to ruin all my call minutes and bother people calling.
Have you seen Slide2Unlock?

Carty..

PROBLEM : Call drops after first ring?

Hi,
I'm having trouble with my Diamond. When a private number calls, it gets dropped after the first ring, before I get a change to get then phone even out of my pocket?
Its really frustrating... and its starting to do it on number, unbarred numbers?
Has anybody seen anything like this before? It doesn't happen all the time, but its getting pretty consistent!
I'm running SwiftBL 5.6 and Radio 100.05.25
Please help!

yes, I'm experiencing the same thing too and I'm using the official 1.93 rom.
as far as I know, it doesn't only affect private call and the problem is very random.
What I notice is the phone will keep ringing until you press any button or the touchscreen to answer or mute the call and that's the time the phone will drop the call....hoping to find solution too....
I had the same problem with the HTC 1.93 ROM. Changing radios made no difference. Switched to Swift v5.6 and all is OK. BTW am in UK on Orange.
even with 1.37 rom, i'm also having the problem....wonder does anyone know what's the problem and solution....
I had this problem after I've tried to sort out the 3 sec delay problem... After a Hard Reset and not playing with the 3 sec delay problem everything is fine....

Lay your phone on the table and try again.
Most comes with the problem in your pocket.
As soon as the phone rings the touchscreen is enabled and it drops the call because it thinks you pressed ignore.
This problem can be solved by s2u2.
I had the same problem and solved it with this program.
It blockes your touchscreen unless you slide it from left to right completely.
Grtzzzz
Yeah, thats exactly it I think... because its always in my pocket, but I have the HTC case, which by the time I've either take it out of my pocket or out of the case, the call has gone!
Does anybody have a link for that app s2u2.
I will try this... because I tried changing the ringer settings and all sorts, and nothing helped! All the iPhone and N95 guys are slagging me at work! Apart from that its by far the best phone in the office
Cheers for the help!
Will report back if I find that and app if it works!

definitely not due to that problem. Numerous time, my phone was not in my pocket but on the desk already. A couple of time when the phone ring, I pick it up and press the answer button(touchscreen and hardware button) but it just drop the call....haizzzz
No one else has this problem?
I'm getting exactly the same problem (I'm using the official Vodafone 1.93 ROM)...really annoying!
I am getting this problem too... anybody have a solution? Whenever a private number comes in, when i click on the answer tab, the call will just disconnect... this is very fustrating...
I also get this issue, always with a private number and sometimes with a stored number. At first I thought it was becuase I was touching the screen when I first took the phone out of my pocket but like someone else said this also happens when its on a table.
Any help would be really appreciated!!

Trouble answering a phone call

I am having a problem with my sprint diamond. When I get an incoming call, I have to press the touch screen answer button several times for it to answer. Sometimes I try the hard button to answer and still the same issue. On a few occasions, it took too long to answer and the call goes to voicemail.
Has anyone had this problem?
Same Problem, Sprint HTC Touch Diamond. 1.09.x ROM
Same issue, Using Dutty's ROM. But I only have the problem when recieving international calls.
Anybody know what this could be?

Thanks!!!!!
Thanks, will give it a go. Another problem im having is hanging up on a call. When i end the call via the hard key the phone will not respond straight away, sometimes I have to press the key lots of times, or unlock the phone as the screen has turned of, then access the phone key pad, then end the call. Total pain.
Anyone else have the problem?
Update!
Problem solved! Thanks again, caprate!
See post number 20 on page 2 in the link that caprate posted. Someone posted a cab file to fix this. I can comfirm it has worked!

Notification Sounds Stopped Working

Hi All,
I've searched all over...can't seem to find anything. So, I'm turning to you guys, the community, for some help.
Up until 2 days ago, all my notification sounds worked. Email, SMS, phone calls - all came in, and it made a nice loud noise to alert me to the incoming event. All of a sudden, they just stopped.
I still get sound. Taps and things still generate a sound. However, whenever an email, sms or phone call comes through, there is no sound or vibration at all. I haven't installed anything new. Nothing.
I'm using the AT&T Tilt WM6.1 ROM v3.57.502.2 WWE.
Any help or further inquiry to help me resolve this problem without a hard reset would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you,
Q
Tap the speaker icon on the title bar and make sure the system volume isn't all the way off.
I guess I forgot to make that part clear...the volume is up on both speaker options.

Does anyone know if it's the rom or the kernel that's being used that's causing this issue? I too am having issues with this...
