yes! Me too, it is the most useless junk ever thought by the HTC ppl! It is annoying, please someone please help us remove it!

I want it back to my ROM badly. where is the cab?

i also do not need it, and would like to know how to turn it off

Its a pain to mute/un-mute during conf calls with this on.
Anyone?
For those users interested to find a solution to disable the curtain, here is the package. Could be a dll or a registry key.
Found a solution
Found a solution with reg key.
Goto HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\Cover
There is a DWORD value ResumeInterval set to 5000 (5secs).
I changed it 300000 (5mins) and soft-reset.
Now the call starts with slider on, you only need to slide down once. Then it will wait for 5 mins of inactivity to come back up.
Probably higher values can be used, but 5mins should work for me.
As always, modify registry at your own risk...

I must admit the Topaz dialer (as nice as it may look) sux! What was wrong with the standard HTC HD dialer? it supported landscape and was functional.

I had zero issue with the standard one, it was functional and did exactly as one would expect. Topaz dialer hides all options instantly making it absolutely dangerous to try and activate loudspeaker whilst driving . The other issue is landscape view, if using any rotate screen app and having the device in landscape (ie. whilst using GPS apps etc) and receiving a call there is no dialer shown at all!
Surely I am not the only one to notice these problems?
thanks man it helped

Hi
I made this little CAB to install the registry tweaks that prevent your screen from blanking. I can confirm that on my Orange Diamond, using Bepe's .97 this actually works, whereas using Advanced Config didn't solve the issue.
The CAB file is uninstallable should you wish to remove it.
Thanks,
Shinobi_UK
Can you explain what´s in that cab?

Actually i found that using DT didn't work either, and I also find it more convenient to apply the registry changes with a cab file, rather than having to install an app I don't use and then make a load of clicks.
If you prefer to do it using a tweaking app then this cab isn't for you. The only reason I posted it is because I use it myself.

Well actually it's been very easy to achieve by taking registry snapshots, and then using diff on a linux box to find the changes, then import them into a cab file.
So thanks for wishing me luck but it's not required.
Sarcasm breeds sarcasm and frankly i'm slightly ammused that on a forum designed to help users share tips and software, a simple CAB i use after new ROM flashes has created such a hostile response.
I'm not attempting to replace or belittle your tool monte, it's certainly streets ahead of what i can do at the moment, however as bepe's ROM lets me run cabs at build this way is nice and easy for me to ensure that if I need to do a hard reset I can reinstate my registry tweaks during the reset without having to install any additional software.

Brilliant, I'd tried the registry tweaks in the tweaks thread, and advancedconfig without any luck and this cab worked perfectly.
I haven't tried DiamondTweak, looks interesting though.

This CAB file is flawed, because it causes unnecessary battery drain.
It's wrong to make the screen never go to sleep during a phone call.
If you'll think about it for a moment, during a call we never really need the screen to be active for more than 1 minute or so, from the last time we touched it. If you are calling a digital voice machine (either your voicemail or anything), 99.999% of the time it won't take more than 1 minute between key presses.
The ideal tweak should just make the screen behave like when you're not in a call, meaning the screen reduces brightness after ~30 seconds, and shuts down after ~1 minute. In order to be 100% on the safe side, you could make it shut down after 2 minutes from last key press. BUT, making it never go to sleep is simply a waste of battery if you're doing for example a 30 minutes conversation.
center button and screen back on
My preference is to have the screen come on, see who it is, then allow it to go blank. If you need it to come back on, i just push the center of the scroll, enter button or whatever its called, and the screen comes back on. (at least it does on mine) . I like it that the screen blanks so it will save battery.
But i dont think we should discourage anyone from making any kind of cab if they desire.

Still, it is unnoying to press that damn key every 5 seconds. The screen should shut down after 1-2 minutes, but NOT never.

Thats abosolute BS. It is NOT flawed. If you dont want your screen to stay on just - dont use the CAB. I think most users around here are smart enought to know that keeping the screen on during a call takes a battery hit. If they use the CAB as I intend to they are willing to accept this.

u need to install advanced confog tool from Schaps, there is an option to disable device sleep while on call.
CSD connection
The screen also turns itself off when I use a CSD connection for internet access on my device. I assume it's because the phone thinks I'm making a regular phone call, so it turns the display off.
I found that if I load up tomtom in the background, the screen stays on, but after a while, the screen starts to turn itself off for about a second every few seconds, so it has only worked as a temporary solution.
I will give the advanced config tool a try. ty
IDK know about advanced config, but kaiser tweak is a nifty little program to change a lot of settings
Advanced config is just about the same as KaiserTweak.
I think kaiser tweak has a few more options now. I had advanced config on a couple of roms i flashed and i think kaiser tweak is a little more encompassing as far and the number of features you can tweak.

I prefer having the screen on regardless where I am. All boxes are unchecked>oower, backlight,etc.
but the damn thing goes off after a few seconds when I make a phone call and the keypad can't be seen to press a number when prompted to do so. When I want the screen off, I use psshutXP (light off)
How can I get the advanced configuration tool?!

HKLM/Drivers/Built-In/RIL>Enable Fast Dormant Display During Call....Change value from 1 to 0. Soft reset. The display will stay on during a call!
Now I have another issue that a search didn't help. When I'm on the internet and using the stylus to scroll down the page, the scrolling slows down to nearly a stop just a very short ways down the page!!
Can someone pls help me with this?

Here's a screenshot of the phone stay awake tweak.
Hey there
I have learned that the HTC Dialer is pretty slow compared with the standard WM dialer. It will not only speed the phone up by disabling it, but also free up around 10 mb of ram! However, i like the dialers visuals, and the feature that i can flip the phone if i want to mute a call, which is disabled to if i disable the skin.
I saw the other day in some thread that by converting images from png to jpeg you could spare some ram and space, but can't remember if it was the dailer the topic where about nor where i found this topic.
So my question is. Is it possible to boost the performance of the HTC Dialer ? I do not care if it should take up 10 megs of my ram, all i wan't it to is to get quicker and more responsive, like the traditional wm default dialer, as i want the layout and the "flip to mute" functionality..
Is this possible in some way?

Havent tried it myself... but if It has all the fetures that HTC Dialer has I might give it a try..
Yup!
I'm using that manila VGA dialer, and it doesn't use more than 5.5MBs!! Thats pretty sweet.
And personally, I feel it looks better, with the black/white combination.
One thing to note though.. It takes like 0.8secs to launch the dialer from the moment you press the call button.. BUT, when it launches, it refreshes up your screen instantly!
Compared to the original diamond one, which may get activated quick, but takes a little more time to draw up to the screen.
Overall, it's a keeper for me. Try and.. if ya don't like, you can uninstall.
Cheers.
i found in the new advanced config 3, you can set the dialer hang up time from the default 3 seconds down to pretty much instant. i dont understand why in the world the default time from pushing hangup to actually ending the call would be 3 seconds. but im also a retard.

I've installed this one ... I like it very much...the 0.8 sec problem is ok for me... but I have another problem... when somebody's calling me ( I have the option to Vibrate and Ring) , after I press Talk ( Answer ) the phone vibrates for about 2 seconds.... very annoying... any ideas?
Go into the phone app and then menu -> options -> advanced and uncheck 'Vibrate device when connection is established'

That is when youre making a call.
But what vibecatalin is saying is when youre picking up the phone, as it when it is vibrating/ringing. When you pick up, the vibrating doesnt cut off instantly.

Have you tried Advanced Config > Phone > End Call Delay? I haven't myself so I don't know if it's the time it takes to disconnect the call or the time it takes to close the dialer. Worth a try.
No, that's the time it takes for the phone to end your call after pressing the end-call button. Which is ridiculous, when I press the button I want to end it immediately .
I agree. Of what purpose could it possibly be to delay the end of the call?!? I mean if you could recover from accidentally hitting the end key that would be one thing. But you can't so any delay is just plain stupid AFAICT.
You can also use Advanced Config to turn off the silly animations and sounds at start up or shutdown. They also do little else but make start up and shutdown longer...
I've switched to the WM default dialer now, as was suggested in this thread, let's see if it it works for me. I liked the HTC dialer though .

I've also tried that and it works but that's not a solution.WMs dialer sucks, keys are small and poor responsible for touch.Anyway I don't like WMs dialer. I don't understand why this reg tweak works with some roms but with some doesn't ;/. Hope it will be fixed in next official rom or somebody from XDA will find a solution for this annoying issue.As U guys sad when I press end button i wanna end immediately ,not in 5 sec!.
I now use the phonecanvas cab for my Diamond, so I don't have to use S2U2 anymore. But I believe this only works with the HTC dialer.
So does anyone have a solution for this problem? I really need it
the in-call "Slide down for more options" curtain
does anyone know how to turn this feature off?
i've searched and there are a few threads on this
but with no answers.
thanks in advance
I need this aswell, Could it be fixed with a registery edit?
I'm guessing you guys have done the same that I've done loads .... pulled the slider the wrong bloody way and hung up on people ? ?
I have to keep remembering to use the answer button not the touch screen.
I have searched some more, Without an actual solution,
Still I think it should be 'fixed' by a registry edit.
Can anyone give a concrete answer?
I remember when I used my HTC Touch Elfin, Some roms had the 'curtain' and some didn't, though it were 'the same dialers'
Sorry for the double post, But, Bump?
Anyone?
u can set the delay
HKEY Local Machine/Software/HTC/Phone/Cover/ResumeInterval
Default is 5000
So, To what should we change it to disable it?
0?
No not "0" Set it to "999999999999" or something. Tried many things like make an registry key EnablePhoneCover etc but nothing works
999999999999 would disable it completely?

No but you only have to slide down once. I have installed the screenoff tweak every time i make a call the screen turns of but the slider is not coming back
Oh ok ^^ Ty mate Will do for now...
But I still think there is a better way to do it, cause some diallers on custom roms do not contain the curtain, But are the same diallers.
I now but this was not with the new Topaz
I tried everyting in the registry but no luck so far
It's been 40 days since the last post. I was wondering if someone came with a fix for it by now?
I don't need this curtain. I want to have all the call options to begin with on my Diamond2 Just like I had it with my old Touch Pro. I don't want the curtain to show at all! I don't want to slide it down even once, Just to completely avoid it alltogether.

I noticed that installing Rhodium Dialer from CAB which I prepared disables curtain (and enables landscape and coference modes for dialer). The problem is that installation of this takes about 18mb of storage memory.
I'm thinking of creating my own ROM (as I did for Omnia ) based on 6.1 with Flashlite3 support in Opera and full landscape support cooked inside (using Rhodium components) .
