Hey guys,
I have htc touch with wm6 and need to turn ringer off (not reject call) on incoming call. The volume button on left side of pda is quite uncomfortable to use, therefore i think better solution is small program,that switches ringer mute on/off.
Can anybody write such small program for me,that will write needed value to registry (if needed - i can find which one), or tell me how and where(which program language,enviroment etc) write the code at leaset
Thanx!
if you press and hold button 4 (comm manager) often it will put the phone into silent (vibrate) mode

Hi,
I have a very annoying problem. When someone is calling and I don't want to pick up the call there is no option to put the Hermes in silent mode !!!
Even when I change the volume to "Off" the phone still rings !!!
Only options I have are "Accept" / "Reject".
Please if anybody knows a solution to work around this problem, let me know.
Thanks a lot

If u press jogdial towards downwards when somebody calls u then it will silent the ringer !
Thanks vijay_kumar
It works !!!
I'm using AE Button Plus and have redirected the jog buttons (volume sliders) to be up and down, but that has resulted in not being able to use the jog buttons (volume sliders) to silence the incoming phone call as mentioned above. I've tried all variations of the "Restore volume slider" options in AE Button Plus - but nothing has restored this "silence ringer" option. If anyone knows of a workaround or registry hack or whatever, please let me know.
I have the same problem as Xilicon, I use AEbutton and I tried all sort of settings to be able to put my Hermes silent when it is ringing (I don't want to reject the phone call). NO success
Does anyone know a another way to put the Hermes silent workaround ?
Hi there. I opened up my Wizard (thinking I was ultra-cool) to fix a keyboard problem that I have been having (in landscape mode, the touch-screen doesn't work)...
After doing this, I landed up with a second problem. The volume slider doesn't work. Now, I can't scroll but more importantly, I can't mute calls (aka silence incoming calls, put the ringer off)
Whats the alternate solution? After several hours of research, I'm thinking this is the possibility. I can use a program like smartskey and re-assign the mute functionality to another button like the END button. For example, if a call comes in, the first time I hit END, it will silence it and the second time I hit END, it will ignore the call. Is that possible?
Please help. I am totally dependent on my wizard for EVERYTHING!
Hi all,
When I receive a call I have 2 options on the touchscreen: "answer" and "reject" a call... a friend of mine who has also the HTC dual touch has on his screen besides the "answer" also a "silent" button which allows the incoming call to continue but disables the ringtone.
Anyone any idea if this is a registry setting or something? If my friend pushes the red (HW) button then he also rejects the call.
Cheers
Berre
if you press the volume up or down button on the side of the phone that will put into silent whilst ringing
Hi,
I don't find those buttons easy to press so I would really like that "shortcut" on the touchscreen...
Some versions seem to have it and mine doesn't so this should be SW related or registry setting... anyone?
Cheers
Berre
found it
HKLM/Software/HTC/PHONE/PhoneExtendedSettings/RejectEnable
Change it from 0 to 1 and it works

hello xda community
i'm very new to the blackstone and this is my first post here. so please bear with me if i'm asking very basic questions here.
my problem:
i carry my blackstone in my pocket all the time. and many people told me throughout the last days that they called me and that i picked up the call by accident.
since i work at customer sites mostly my phone is muted. so people call me and somehow i pickup the calls while the phone is in my pocket.
i always turn of the screen and i have the automatic lock (password protection) enabled. still when the incoming call screen comes up it looks like it is possible that calls are being picked up.
i know there is the slide which has to be moved to the left in order to pickup calls.
i have tried myself by calling my from my home phone and touching the screen and the buttons at random. and indeed the calls are being picked up. i was not able to find out how this is happening ... but it does.
so is there any setting i can change or any additional piece of software i can install to make sure calls are only answered when i want?
possible a reg key i need to change?
any help is very much appreciated
cheers
This isn't just a problem with the Blackstone; every WM phone I have had does this. I have found that a good locking program handles this quie well. I personally like S2U2 by A_C, but there are many others available. You can look in the apps forum, or check the development & hacking forum from the main menu.
The other thing to check is that you have all your notifcations set properly. I set all of mine to vibrate only. Many of them turn on the screen by default. Unfortunately this won't fix the problem on its' own though.
mwelch16 ... thank you very much for the reply
i will give it a try and see how it works for me.
so that means first of all i will have to slide that iphone type of lock and then take the call by using the regular slider?
is there any other way (without) an additional piece of software to handle this? cause after all there is the build in slider ... but somehow it's not working as it is supposed to. any enhancement to that?
thanks again
Is there a way how to disable the CALL PICKUP button which is on the left? so the first of the four buttons?
I think it's because it getting pressed while my phone is in the pocket.
thanks a lot
I use Pocket Shield - it's not free (free to try though) but it's worked well for me

No, S2U2 will unlock itself for a phone call and then lock the phone again after the call. So no need to slide to unlock and then answer your phone. It has a bunch of different settings, and yes I believe it locks the hard buttons.
thanks folks for the replies
i found all the settings i was looking for in the S2U2 options. so i'm good right now.
thanks again
You're probably answering the call by pressing the "phone" button (the very left of the four buttons on the bottom). You can either use those buttons to answer/hang up, or the on screen slider.
I've used AE Button Plus to disable the 'Answer' and 'End' hardware keys and re-mapped them to turn wifi and bluetooth off and on. This way there is no chance of hanging up on a call by mistake since you need to use the slide to answer on screen.
Similar but opposite problem
I'm having a problem along the same lines. If I get a call when the phone is in my pocket and answer it on my bluetooth headset, when the call ends the phone then rings someone else, usually the same person who is at the top of my contacts list. Not only is this damned annoying for me, it's getting a bit tedious for the person getting the unwanted calls.
Is there any way to get the phone to immediately lock as soon as a call terminates to prevent this happening? I'm assuming that once the call ends and it returns to the default contact/dial pad screen, the merest brush against the screen will be enough to start a new call.
I'm beginning to think I should have stuck with my iPhone

I've the exact same problem, 3/4 of the incoming calls rejected when I get the phone out of my pocket due to End button accidentally pressed.
What did they thought when they implement the slide to answer ????
The purpose of the slide to answer is to avoid such accident, but why the hell did they keep the Answer / End buttons active ????? total non sense to me.
Will check if this AE Button + app can solve this annoying behaviour.
has anyone tried Lockmelite?
It may help - haven't used it myself though.
x 2 for PocketShield. It uses the light sensor in your phone to prevent the touchscreen from activating when the device is inside, say, a pouch, or in your pocket.
I'm using evaluation version 2.6.2.10, which as I understand it, has full functionality, except that every now and then, randomly (and IMO infrequently enough to not be annoying) before unlocking it displays a 10 second message saying that you're using an evaluation version. Note that this *never* happens during an incoming phone call. Good stuff.
Hi,
Try TouchLockPro :

Now it handle light unlock in any cases, that as solved all my issues (pocket, in cas BT,...) and fulfill all my requirements.

Pocket Shield doing perfect job for me
I use AE Buttons Plus to disable the "Answer" & "End" virtual buttons. Then I used iconsoft Phonext to handle all my calling functionalities. When a call comes in, Phonext display a lock screen which you have to slide before it presents you with all the options like answer, decline, silence etc.
This way, I never accidentally pickup a call or dial a number.
Is there a way or even a program to automatically lock the keypad once a call is connect, without me having to do it each time?
I would like to know this as well. Anyone who could help out?
Yes yes yes !!! I need also .... I'd already stopped about 10 calls trying to lock the screen or when in my jeans ... any solution ?? I need it !
+1 i was going to ask that question as well
I need that 2
yeah hate having to hold the phone 2cms away from my ear incase i drop the call.
RE:
You can try S2U2 - there are two options => "Blank screen on talk" and "Lock on talk". I prefer "Lock on talk" because of automatic activation backlight (proximity sensor) in case of removing the device from your ear...
Thank you goodbreak,
but I'm not so happy to install a different program to make a so "simple" operation that with my previous P3600 I realized simply pressing the on-off button ...
Still searching for an alternative solution ...
I know of a Program that does exactly what you guys are asking for... But i havent tried it myself....Let me know if it works for you

Thanks also to you, bshakil.
But all this program make too operation not useful for this issue.
The solution should be very simple. Separate the off (hardware) button from End call button.
A simply solution should be to assign to a different hardware button the Off operation.
It should be possible ?
Thanks to all for any advice !
I totally understand it ... my previous phone was tytn2 and i miss seperate suspend button as well..
But with only 5 buttons available on the handset (excluding Volume) . i dont think we can assign a button for suspend only...
thanks! i m now using smartlock it work great
