Phone locks "on call" - phone app crash

Hi,
I faced this problem too often, so I ask on this forum to know if it only happens to me:
when I end the call, telephone programs stucks. In the top bar, the indication of an on going call is still there. Everything is working except telephone application. I can't open the telephone options. Even if I turn on Airplane mode, the phone logo in the top bar remains.
Any idea?
I had that problem once. Did it occur when you dialed a number not in your phone book? It turned out the prompt for saving a new dialed number was still there but I somehow couldn't access it. Perhaps turn that setting off?
no, it was an outgoing call to someone in my phonebook. (at least in my last problem)
facing the same problem. after ending a call the phone app freeze a couple of minutes and sometimes more than ten minutes
Did you installed the HTC patch to avoid the freeze ?
I didn't.
Could it be usefull there ?
This is really annoying if you have to wait 10mn before doing an another call !
Problem happened again
The problem happened again yesterday.
But worse. I was leaving a message on an answering machine. and I couldn't end the call !
Pressing the right key (end call) had no effect !
Usually in my previous problems, the other user was ending the call.
So I had to switch off the phone in comm manager !
I'm surprised that no one else faced this problem !
I tried to follow one's advice to wait then until phone gets back to normal. (release the phone icon in the top bar).
After one hour, I finaly rebooted the phone to be able to do an outgoing call.
Help !
Phone blocks during or after a call
Hello guys and girls
I had the same problem last week, a couple of times in a row, I was on the phone with a contact, after a couple of minutes I couldn't hear anything anymore and tried to end the call but no joy, a soft reset did the thing the first time, the second I waited a couple of minutes wich worked aswell. It was very annoying I must say especially as it happened 4 times in a row...
Hoping for a solution

It seems a bug. You can press volume up/down buttons on the device itself to open the volume bar screen. After that just press somewhere on the grey area to go back to home screen. The top bar will restore from the phone application.
It's not the top bar. The phone application is completely unavailable.
We see the top bar,but the phone icon is stuck. Like if we were still on call.
I too have a similar problem.
Although I haven't particularly logged the prolems, I think that it only happens on incoming calls, and not outgoing ones.
During a phone call, the incoming sound just goes mute, and afterwards I can't hang up the call.
I reckon I have lost well over half the calls I have received because of this.
Luckily, not many people call me!!
I reckon this is a CRAP phone, and am seriously thinking of getting a REAL phone, and just using the HD as a PDA device. Good old HTC!!!!!!
I edited the title of this topic.
The phone app is really stucked : I called an answering machine, I wasn't able to end the call !
Help !
I am thinking of changing ROM.

Lock screen when on Call?

Ok guys I am searching but i need my screen to lock when im on a call i even managed to get into comm manager today and put the phone into flight mode what the hell ?? lol
when u put the phone to your ear, the proximity sensor should automaticaly turn off the screen.
It does but sometimes if i change ear if im on a call for a long time obv the screen comes on its just annoying i have even cut a few people off, surely im not the only person who cant take a call properly lol

THIS!!!
Absolutely ridiculous.
actually... sometimes i dial a number and put it to my ear... and when it starts ringing the screen comes on... i hate this... anyone knows why?... the sensor is fully covered...
Same problem...I already opened a thread for this, but no solution (apparently)
It's really annoying!
It would be just great if we had a menu button to turn it off again.
Contacted HTC, waiting for reply.
They replied that this is a normal behavior and nothing else we can do, onoly find some app which does that.
Any ideas?

@ EgoMaximus
good find im trying it now seems to do the trick,
Try InCallLock as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556801 disables hardware buttons, good when taking phone out of the pocket or so.
so i deleted that app, what happened to my slidey lock screen?
Pocketshield can do that.
See an in-call demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMf8C5k7TGM#t=0m55s
Does the hardware windows key then 'lock' in the bottom left not do it?
i think wețre deviating from the main problem... out of the box HD2 SHOULD know to "close" the screen when in a call and covering the proximity sensor...
for me it does this as supposed but not always....
normal behaviour... make a call... put the phone to the ear... as long as the phone has the sensor covered the screen stays off
my random behaviour.... press call... put the phone to my ear (the sensor fully covered)... the screen turns off... when it starts ringing the screen goes on.... i take the phone away from the ear and put it back... the screen goes back off.... when the other end answers the screen goes back on... putting the phone away and back to the ear turns the screen off again.....
THIS DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!

+1000000 Since I have my HD2 I read all the forum to find a solution.
This is the only message I can read I find someone really boring with this problem. This is for me the problem Number 1 of the HD2.... the only one in fact .
I saw o lot of nice CAB for HD2, a lot of nice tweak etc... So why can't we find a CAB or why HTC make a patch for this boring bug..
Are we the only 2 HD2 owner to be really bore ?
this really p!sses me off too! during the lat 3 calls i accidentially hung up at least 3x per call will try the cab posted earlyer.
i just don't get it why is so hard to provide this feature wich is on every standard rom...
HTC Roms will not do that by default, neither the WM standard lock. You need a 3rd party screen locker
oh yes they do... with my stock rom when in call there is a courtain over all the buttons like mute, speaker etc... when that courtain is active nothing works except the start/end call and slide the courtain to gain acces to other buttons... so the uper bar is not activated if touched....

Screen turns off/on in call?

I got a question. When you're talking on the phone, does your screen goes off in 10 seconds, then 2 seconds later, the screen turns back on, then turns off in 10 seconds, and keeps going..
Cuz while I was talking on the phone using bluetooth, I just happen to noticed this and even using my finger to hide the proximity sensor, it does the same thing.
[EDIT] When I'm on a call and then hit the home button to get to the main screen (still on call), then it turns off like normal and it won't turn itself on. But for some reason, in the "Call Window" it just repeatedly goes off and on.. Hmmm
Problem 2: When I'm on a call, and have my phone in my pocket, when someone phones me, my leg would help me 'accept' the call. I did a test. When I'm on a call and block the proximity sensor, the screen locks up (which is fine) but when someone phones in (call waiting), the screen is accessible again even though the proximity server is still covered. This makes it so that it would still accidently accept the call when someone phones in while still in pocket.
Can anyone try it and see if it does it on your phone?
Yes mine does that. It sucks because frequently, I will hit the hang up button with my cheek. Annoying.
I hope they fix this asap...
its very annoying, mine does the same thing

[Q] Call Problems

Hi first of all sorry for my English.
I just changed my Hd2 screen and I am facing a new problem. Every time I am making a call the screen go black and I cannot switch on again. Even when I receive a call once answered the screen goes black. The only way to switch it on again is when I have to call my self or else I have to reset. I had set the setting to let the screen awake during calls but nothing happened.
It is happing on android and also on windows mobile 7

[Q] Can not make/receive calls !!!

Hi All, long time lurker - first time poster...Love this site !
I recently went back to stock firmware from CM11...Using odin, I flashed the Rogers S4 firmware, used triangleaway, and back to stock - all looked good. Then I tried to make a call - no go...I try to make the call, seems to work, but then I hear no ringing, the phone screen goes black and lightly flashes...If I back out to the home screen I can see the call icon in the notification panel, but no call is made....the phone locks up for a few seconds and then back to normal...Alternately if someone tries to call me, sometimes the phone rings, but I can't swipe to answer it, just locks up...
Everything else works ( text, data - although wifi wont turn on - when I try to switch on it immediately goes back to off; but I've read I have to reflash some modem file )...
So theres my problem, no calling is a big problem, hopefully I can get some help
