Hello everyone. I have an AT&T Tilt, and it's great so far, except for two issues:
1) After I end a phone call, the backlight seems to go off and the screen is very dim. Pressing keys does not bring the backlight back. If I power the screen off and on, the backlight comes back on and the screen is at its normal brightness.
2) I lock my AT&T Tilt using the "Device unlocked" area on my home screen, and when I unlock the phone, sometimes it asks for my PIN, and sometimes it just shows the unlock button on the screen. My settings are for a 12 hour timeout.
If anyone can shed any light on possible fixes to these issues, that would be great. Thanks!

I have the same issue after a phone call....
Same issue here too... it doesn't happen when on USB-power... and I don't remember it doing this before the security-Exchange policy was forced onto my phone.

I think this happens coz the phone goes into standby / lock mode during your phone call. Just press the on/off button to turn screen off, and press again to turn on. Now your phone will be responsive again.
Minor bug.
Or you can just scroll the volume wheel to turn it back on.

thanks michi
thanks everyone for your replies. I will try the StayUnlock application.
I still don't understand my second issue though. If the bug is causing this issue, shouldn't it at least be consistent in either requiring me to type in my PIN or just hit the unlock button? I have set my phone to lock after 12 hours, so it should never ask for my PIN, just the unlock button...
I now see that people have been having the first issue since the Cingular 8125 but I have been unable to find any references to my second issue.
ATT Til and Backlight
When making a phone call, once connected, about 12 seconds later the screen goes dark regardless of the setting on the backlight. I am not using a password, and the only way to get back is to use the power button. using the phone button puts the call on hold
I phoned a friend last night at 1am - accidently. All I did was put my Diamond in its case and it dialed out.
What do you do to get around this? Lock it? How? I've also heard that locked devices unlock on an incoming call?
Thanks,
Jon
Try pressing the standby-button on the top of your phone. This should turn your screen black and make the touchscreen unresponsive.
edit: you could also longpress the "End Call"-key so you cant press any button accidently
hey guys sometime when i get and incoming call my phone start acting up and i cant slide up to take the call, my screen wont respond and no hard keys to press if some one know how to fix this please let me know if not im giving this wp7 a 2nd software update a chace to get this right. ms should be a genieus when it comes to software not apple or google. you never know when a emergency call comes in and you could not get it, im so concern about this. i had enough with 6.5 now this. but the problem is that i love ms i keep coming back. ****tttt
if a soft reset doesn't fix it you could hard reset. Just make sure you make a list of installed apps to make sure you get them all back on there.
I hadn't heard of this happening before.
I had the same problem once. I just switched the display off and on again (while the phone was still ringing) and then I could take the call.

+1 this happens from time to time.
hit the POWER button to shut of screen, this just powers of the sound and display and does not efect the incoming call.
Press the POWER button to turn the screen back on where you still see the incoming call and the screen will now respond correctly allowing you to answer.
no need to rest or anything.

Is there any remedy to this issue???, i'm having the same thing
Hi there,
Whenever there is a call, my phone screen will go blank and unless the caller hangs up, I cannot end the call from my end because the screen does not appear. I have to use the power button to make it come out of the dialer app. I have tried using factory reset but that did not work out. Could anyone take the pains to tell me how to resolve this issue?
Hey folks,
Sometimes like 1 out of 10-15 calls for some reason it seems I can't answer the call or hang it up. I have to wait it out and even if I slide the green icon on the phone does nothing, it just sits there and I have to wait up untill the person hangs up so I can do anything. After this I can call and pick up the phone no problem but ones in a wile this thing will happen again.
Any one know why is this happening is there something triggering this, or how to fix it?
I have no lockscreen, no password nothing, just power button and the home screen where you have to swipe that's all, if that matters even.
