Yes mine does this all the time...I use S2U2 though so it turns it back off within a few secs

Mine does that also, but it doesn't bother me that much. What is s2u2? If that can stop it I might try to check it out just for the sake of not having it do it when I don't want it to.
Edit: NM I found out what is was "Slide 2 Unlock".

It can be really annoying... I would like to know what causes it as well.
For sometime I was missing calls, texts, emails, etc. when the phone was asleep. You ever get that?

You should consider linking to A_C's thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353008&highlight=s2u2) instead of just giving out the cab so A_C can get credit for his excellent work and whoever decides to use it knows where to go to ask questions and get the lastest version.

S2U2 latest version is .97... It works flawlessly (on my Sprint HTC Touch/Vogue). He fixed a lot of problems in the earlier versions...

Oops, correction... .98

That was actually my original intention but I was short on time and had the cab file on hand so I just uploaded it. I didn't have time to search for the thread or I would have linked to it as well as uploading the cab.

No prob, sorry if I sounded a little rude.

Screen comes on whenever reception changes from 1x to Evdo to Roaming etc.
Problem is if you didn't lock and it's in your pocket it starts running all kinds of stuff.

S2u2
will that work on WM6 even though the one i have says wm6

Is there a way you can stop that from happening other then S2US?

I've noticed this as well, but it only seems to happen if I leave Opera Mobile running in the background.

S2U2 is pretty awesome
i like it alot

Same problem. Fairly annoying. I have a phone holder that clips onto my air vent in my car. At night it just lights up for no reason. I might have to give s2u2 another shot. Last version i tried was buggy.
.eric

im pretty sure its a lot of different things that cause it to awake.. going from evdo to 1x, checking your email because you prolly scheduled it to do so every hour or what-have-you, it could be updating the weather as well.. really the reason the phone is waking up from sleep mode is data based.

Wake on slide open?

Hi all. I'm the proud owner of a new XV6800 and I'm wondering, is there any way to make it wake from sleep when I slide out they keyboard?
I have been panning through all of my menus and cannot find a option to wake upon slideout of keyboard. It may not be possible...
Unless someone else knows of a possible registry edit or .cab file...
I haven't seen anything either, my wing did this and I miss the feature.
If you are using Pocket Toolman, which you REALLY should be, under OS tweaks, there is an option to click on, "wakeup when sliding keyboard".
Pocket Toolman is awesome!! And free.
http://pockettoolman.blogspot.com/
Thanks Benderhoggs! I was looking for something like that. Can't wait to try it!
Sure. You'll love it. One of the best programs I've gotten for my phone so far.

Looks like a great tool, but unless I'm missing something, the "Wakeup when sliding keyboard" feature does not appear to work on my Titan. Any Titan users able to get it to work?
yeah the wake on keyboard feature doesn't seem to be working for my titan...darn
It doesn't work for me either, so I uninstalled it, since other parts weren't either. Looks like a neat tool though.
Crappy Program
I tried this program. It didn't do what it said it would do and also when uninstalled left all the settings that it changed in place. Now I have to do a hard reset. Worthless.

The program was designed to make it easy to change certain registry settings. Perhaps you should've defaulted everything before uninstalling it.
Anyone know another way? This is a feature I'd really like to have

Has anyone discussed this with the developer? It seems like such a waste to do all that work on this app for it not to work properly. There is no place to post comments on the blog, and I noticed the app was just updated yesterday.
I'm leery of installing this with such drastic issues looming. I will e-mail him with a link to this post. His e-mail is [email protected] which is in Canada.

Hi xfortrenox,
Can you give more information on what problems you were having with PT2? What device are you using? You're more than welcomed to email me at [email protected].
I am not able to get the Wake on Slide Function to work on my Verizon xv6800.
Also, since I have installed Toolman, It replaced the CONTACT soft button with Toolman.
I tried to RESTORE the right soft button, but now I have a bunch of weird characters in its place.
Do I need to fix something in the registry to get back CONTACTS for my right soft button?
Thanks!
BTW, LOVE the program so far
..............
I think that a wake on slide open for the titan would be a bad idea. The wake on slide open worked well on the htc apache,, although if you think about how the sliding mechanisms work the apache snapped closed, so it woudl not open easily, the titan on the other hand is spring loaded, so any various movements could trip the device to turn on(if the slide open powerup was enabled). I had wanted this feature at first, but soon realized how randomly the phone would turn on if it was shook or moved a certain way, allowing the phone to slide open the quarter inch required to activate the switch. just some random thoughts about this topic, thanks.
I will have to respectfully and vigorously disagree. First off the power button couldn't really be in a worse place - the bottom of landscape mode... holding it in landscape means none of your fingers could be farther away from the key.
I am still holding out hope to be able to power this thing on with a slide.

lol this thread got me all excited... downloaded app installed it and no worky.. normally i read the whole thread first before installing something but I was THAT excited for slidey wakey!
doesn't work
would be glad to test a new version out if u get this fixed toolman... I'm on verizon using xv6800 with Verizon signed OEM ROM.
I'd be glad to beta a version that has wake on slide as well, using a sprint mogul with 2.17 ROM.

3 Diamond Apps

After spending the summer learning c# and .netcf I got my hands on a Diamond and had to make some small apps.
They're very beta and pre-release versions, but please try 'em out and give me some feedback
VibraNotify
Senses when the phone lays idle and when it is on the move, if it has been stationary for some time and it gets picked up it vibrates if there's been any unattended activity (sms, appointments, missed calls).
Should probably add some gui components for sensitivity tweaking.
CallBlocker
Rejects all callers enlisted in the supplied text-file. Currently the text-file contains "all" telemarketing numbers in norway (from telefonterror.no).
Speedometer
Really simple GPS-utility showing the current speed in different units.
Nice work!
Downloading them now.. and gonna try 'em right away...
I was thingking about another thing that the VibraNotify could do (or as a different program)
Like a theft alarm.. If the phone has been idle for some time.. and it gets piked up.. you have to enter a code.. if you dont, a high alarm sound will start
(I'm not gonna take the cred for this, someone else spoke of it in this forum some time ago)
Thanks. I'm going to try it!
Nice! I`ll have a look. Would be nice if you could set some settings, like idle time on the Vibra thingy!
Nice ... thank you.

How long is some time?
Surur
ok.. I tested VibraNotify...
I'm gonna use it for sure
But I noticed that if i get a sms and move it, it vibrates...
but if I don't check the sms... and move it again later, it doesn't vibrate
I think it should vibrate until I have checked the sms?
It's little bit annoying to see these programs working in task manager... is it possible to hide them? I mean they will be working in background... Especially vibranotify...
plus is it possible to add numbers to list for callblocker? I could not do that... well it saves as .txt file when i try to modify and save the list...
Theft alarm could definitively work, how about a mp3 shouting "Put the mobile down with two fingers only!"? Hehe
Regarding the idle time, I think I used 10 seconds, if you don't hide the windows you can se it changing states. The number outputted is the square of the sum of the changes in the accelerometer values.
I will add some gui components and registry settings for this when I got time, would be more dynamic that hardcoded constants.
I'm not sure if I understood what you meant NisseDILLIGAF, doesn't it vibrate if you got unread sms'es when you pick the phone up from i.e. the table?
emre_aachen:
Just add the numbers to the textfile, seperate by a newline, save and reload the application. It caches the numbers, maybe a wrong design decision? Comments?

No... What I mean is if I get a sms and I accidentally move the phone, It vibrates...
I haven't checked the sms (I don't know that I have a message)
When I pick the phone up ... there is no vibration... It only vibrates once..
It would be great if It would vibrate every time I move it untill I have read the sms...
Like the flashing center button... It continues to flash until I have cheked the sms or a missed call or whatever...
again.. Thanx for a great app .. It's gonna be a standard app for my phone
Ah, then I follow you. This could certainly be done! Maybe an option in the gui to enable/disable...
I certainly need to reinstall VS to continue developing
I'm keeping this topic in view, sounds like a nice app. But as read from the comments, it still needs a little bit of work (setting etc).
Nice work!

As you seams to know what you are doing I'll give you my two cents for a simple apps:
You know that when the Diamond is in standby with black screen you can't see if you have signal or not.
It's possible to have the DPAD flash when the phone in standby mode have no signal ?
Maybe it can stop flashing when the signal came back.
Let mi say after 15 sec. with no signal it start blink with 5 sec delaied flash and after a customizable time the blink
become more quick to allert that you are not reachable for a long period...
It will be wery usefull to know that without touching it.
Let me know and thank you for your great work!

I'm afraid this is not possible, when the diamond is in standby (black screen) it's pretty much like if your computer is in standby mode, all running programs are paused. Checked into this when doing the vibranotifyer, since running it in standby was my original plan.
I certainly hope I'm wrong, maybe someone can correct me?
Hey,
just thought I'd write a quick note to thank you for your programs. Small and simple, its a dream.
Keep them small and simple.
What I'm really looking for is an application to replace my Garmin305 EDGE, and I hope that you continue to develop your GPS stuff to include some of the training and tracking features that the Garmin had.
I found this program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340667
Its called TrackMe, but its clearly not developed for the Diamond, as running it clips my battery time down to 1.5 hours.
What would be nice is to run each feature as an individual streamlined application, like your speedometer.
Anyways, thanks again.
And keep up the good work.

Too bad, but maybe I was not clear in my request.
I mean that the phone is only with the screeo switched off, but it is still active.
For example when it is in this state the phone can ring on a call or on sms...
If I understand well you mean that an apps like S2U2 can't do anything if the screen is offf while you press the power button ?
Thank you for further explanations, I'm really curious on that...

AFAIK the calling, sms'ing etc is handled on a lower layer than what is allowed for the programs, suppose the hardware raises events or something when this happens which wakes up the OS.
Can't seem to see that S2U2 does anything while the mobile is in standby mode?
I just noticed something... maybe I'm wrong..!?
But It feels like the battery is draining faster with the VibraNotify!?
Anyone else that noticed something like this?
Gonna test some more... I'll know more tomorrow...

Lock/unlock

Hi guys
Can you help me!
Bad English, but I hope you understand.
I need a keylock to my phone.
So I can lock/unlock it. ( Like Iphone)
Its a problem when I have my phone in my pocket!
Anyone?
Thanks
The phone has one as standard.
If you want one like the iPhone, search for S2U2.

I guess you don't bother searching or reading, do you? There's a link on the developer's page saying "Read me first". If you click that then you'll find full instructions.
If you do not want to use 3rd party software, I suggest you use the built-in one.
Just hold the most right button a few seconds... (or read also the manual of the phone)
I also use this method, it is fine and I can preserve more power.
Before that, I also use S2U2, and I remove it after 1 day trail.
When I put the machine aside, HD will lock after 30s, then the screen will goes off in another 30s, the beautiful S2U2 screen saver will only survive for no more than 1 minutes.
When I pull the stylus out, it will automatically unlock, so I got no point to use S2U2......and most important, after using it, the battery goes very fast.
I have a full charge before sleep (100%), when I wake up in the next day, only 89% battery left......

I have also used S2U2 and had problem with the power leak but then switched to pocket shield which was great, I even wrote a post about it somwhere in this forum... but after some time with pocket shiel it showed 2 very annoying problems. One was that somehow it totally messed up my galarm application to the point it didn't ring the phone alarm at all (I was very pissed of). Since I am a good man I decided to give it one more chance so I uninstalled galarm and used standard windows alarm app... unforutnately this misworked same way- no alarm, this time i was smart enough to test it. Second thing was that pocket shield was messing start menu in my phone - making it disapear until restart, whenever appointment reminder would start...so this is why I dumped pocket shield and moved back to the simplest standard windows lock function
using s2u2, I like the feature, "keylock: do not lock buttons." I installed keylock.cab, but no effect. There is another way?

Wake on power button only

Bumping indeed, wanting this solution also
I'd like to know this as well... Also the answer button is a waste of space. Why would anyone need it if theoretically it shouldn't be possible to answer a call without finger slide. Sometimes I answer calls by mistake when removing the device from the pouch...
I think this is one of the reasons for my battery depletion. Every time I pull my HD2 out of my pocket, the screen is always on...
This really needs a solution
When taking the phone out of my pocket I have seen it in Opera, other apps and worst of all I heard my pocket talking to me on Monday - pulled my phone out and I had called someone who had been called by me listening to everything I was saying!
As I said this really needs a solution ASAP if anyone can help...

For now you might be better of by using Lock Screen, it can still turn on your phone with any hardkey. But atleast the screen itself is locked so you can't call someone, or start any programs.
I understand lock screen is an option but the simplicity of a one click lock/unlock makes the phone that much quicker to get into and better to use....
we just need a way to disable the other 4 buttons (expect power) from waking the device....
bump...anyone
I would like to know as well.
Also, I want the "answer" and "hang up" hard keys disabled when I receive a call. This made me pickup or ignore call which I did not want to pickup/ignore.
Only solution would be a custom rom with device lock/button lock coocked in it.

Well PocketShield is halfway there. it disables the hangup button nicely, but I can still push the hard pickup button.

S2U2 (Slide 2 Unlock 2)

Who has installed this on the HD2? Are there any issues?
I have it and it performs very well. I found some issues with the S2U2 phone answering capability and so have not use that because it appeared to conflict with the slide to answer built in to the handset.
I note that there is an recent S2U2 upgrade though so this may have been addressed. Follow the extensive instructions and you will not go wrong.
I recommend it.
I have it installed too. No noticable problems.
I'm using the tPro theme and it looks pretty cool.

Well, im on 1.48 official german ROM with S2U2 2.24, and i had a huge battery drain over the last two nights. More than 40% were gone after 7 hours of sleep. Im not completely sure if its S2U2 but its the only external program running in the background over night. I have disabled it for now, lets see what happens this night. But try it out for yourself, maybe your're a bit luckier than me^^...
I haven't had any battery problems with S2U2.
I'm using version 2.14.
Have just installed this - how do you get rid of the normal htc lock screen as i dont want to have to unlock twice . thanks

Has anyone had any issues with S2U2 not displaying the caller image if the image is from a linked facebook profile?
Please can someone help. I'm sure I raised this question ages ago but can't find it.
I was using v2.41 and this had the error and now after upgrading to 2.43 the error still exists...
When on a call and another call comes through, The buttons to decide whether to answer the incoming call or to reject it get overlaid by more text from somewhere. More often than not, I make the wrong choice.
The lowest button (3rd?) has a red background if that helps...
Thanks for any help offered!
