looks like you got a virus ....
that was my first thought, but i set up a new rom last week and i have the same problem agian with the new one rom. So that's why i'm not sure that it's a virus.

You probably should give a little more detail of the problem in order to get better help. Does it make the call to same person every time? Does it make the call on certain intervals? Are you using any particular programs when it happens? etc., etc. It's kind of like taking your car to a mechanic and saying..."The car won't start."
You say u used a new ROM and got the same problem..
But did u format the 4bg Internal Storage too (Boot manager asks to format the device storage or the internal storage too, don't know the correct spelling). This is while flashing new ROM.
Maybe a virus is on your 4gb internal storage and keeps installing himself.

It makes calls at the last outgoing number. I used to use the S2U2 program to lock my device in order not to push any button when i have it in my pants. sorry for my bad english, but i'm very dissapointed with my new diamond so that i'm thinking to sell it
the same thing happens with my diamond. i lock the phone by holding the hang up key, turn off the screen using the power button and use sensorlock to lock again, still, somehow, the phone will make calls to the last person in my call list. the only things i have added to the standard factory handset are:
1.93 rom from the orange.co.uk website,
diamond VRHologram 2.02,
sensorlock 0.40,
gyrator
and one mp4 format movie.
very frustrated. does anyone know what might be causing this problem? i´ve found that sensorlock can be bypassed ( i.e. screen unlocked ) by small movements rather than the full 360° turn which is supposed to be required, but the built in screen lock ( set to locking both hardware and screen buttons ) should still stop my handset from making calls.
also, sometimes, rather than make a call, i will unlock my phone to find the callender program launched, though tbh i think this was while i was only using sensorlock to lock the phone and may have been a result of my finger/palm touching the screen during the rotation gesture.
sorry for the long post, just trying to convey my situation as clearly as possible. if anybody has any solutions or ideas please reply or even pm me, i dont feel confident putting my diamond away because i never know what it´l do by itself, and its really peeing me off!
thankyou very much in advance

Guys, I'm kind and considerate, you're asking in the wrong forum, you should really be in the >Diamond>Diamond forum *and* you should be searching for the answer first.
Some people can be a little 'short' with new posters if you post without searching
Anyway, (as I'm kind and considerate) it's very unlikely to be a virus, it's more likely that your Diamond is turning on in your pocket and redialling your last dialled number, there are loads of threads about this, try searching for answerkeys disabler, what was wrong with S2U2 didn't that solve the problem.
HTH

I have a sprint cdma diamond. I have to turn off the screen during the call because my face will hit a button and do silly things. NOW even with screen off I will be in mid call and my diamond will dial a number on my other line. Think this is a hardware bug IMO happens at least 3 times a week
Headphones?
Just a thought ...
I find the button on the standard headphones very easy to knock and initiate last number dialling, could this be your cause?
If using the radio, I switched back to my old Jasjam headpones - WITH a volume control Otherwise the bluetoooth Motorola HT820's are good value.
It would be good if a warning came up first before it dialed out.
hello everyone, quick question
im looking for a locking program that will lock the screen when i press the power button (device goes into standby) and when it wakes up
the default locking program with WM is annoying because you can lock the phone BUT when u get an incoming call or text message, the screen becomes unlocked again and its easy to "answer" it accidently when its in your pocket. this is particularly annoying with text messages, because most of the time i wont even realize i have one and the phone will be awake for hours draining the battery and waiting to be pushed. anyways ive done several searches and come up with the following solutions, none of which work for me
1. S2U2, i dont like it, i tried it, wont use it again
2. SensorLock - An EXCELLENT locker, except it wont work on phones without Accelerometers...works wonderfully on the diamond tho
can anyone suggest something to me
First, set timeout for turning screen off autoamtically. This will solve SMS wakeup problem - screen will turn off automatically after some time.
Next thing, incoming calls - there is great Onyx ROM with Opal's slider - to answer a call, you need to slide your finger from center to left (or to right to ignore it). You can't answer accidentally using it
i appreciate your suggestions but neither works for me
i tried the opal but it didnt work properly, i actually had to hard reset to get rid of it
as for the timeout, it still doesnt solve the problem of the phone becoming ACTIVE as soon as a notification or text message is received
I think I have the weirdest problem encountered.
My touch screen goes on every 10 - 30 minutes with my simcard in it. I have tried other simcards aswell but the problem remains.
I have noticed that everytime my simcard is polling to an antenna the screen turns itself on as it would receive an incoming message or call. But nothing happens. With other simcards this occurs.
If I disable the phone mode in the settings, the problem is gone. But then I cant receive phone calls or call.
And all of this happens suddenly. Without changing rom/software.
I already have tried using another rom but nothing works.
Google was not my friend this time. Maybe someone else is?
Thanks.
Mike
Maybe this helps
Go to Start->Settings->Phone->More->Broadcast Channels
Unchkec the Enable checkbox.
It already was unchecked
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.
Hi,
I love my new HD2, but i've got the following problem:
The proximity sensor works doesn't work 10% of the time and because the touchscreen is so sensitive, i end up pressing random buttons with my ear or face. I've been manually locking the screen during calls which:
- is really annoying
- doesn't really solve the problem, screen lock during calls does not require slider to unlock, just a regular button and also has a hang up button on it, so it's pretty much back to the original problem.
I know that there's many custom apps out there that can circumvent this issue but i like the stock lock screen (with slider), i don't need another one.
What i need is an app that automatically locks my screen using htc's "slide to unlock" screen after i accept incoming call or after my outgoing call is connected.
If anyone can help me with this i would apreciate it.
why not try s2u2
it has ability to lock after call is connected
do u have something in way of proximity sensor? case or screen protector? i had similar problem but after making bigger hole in screen protector it works 100%
@brkix: i would like a solution that uses the stock lock screen if possible
@lake: i have nothing of the sort, but i confirmed in several forums including this one that the proximity sensor is not 100% reliable
I exactly have the same problem. in my case I want to place a call then want to put the phone in its case while training or running whatsoever and I would really appreciate of being able to lock the keys in order to avoid accidental touching.

SmartLock, offers incall and outcall lock. This may be your best option.
This CAB will lock the hardware buttons when you are in a call if that helps
http://www.cabcache.com/cabs.asp?cab=29
Do you have hair covering your ear?
Without wearing any head wear my sensor works 100% perfect.
Per advice in the second post, I've yesterday installed s2u2. Mates, this program works really good and answers my necessities. All I had to do was to put a short cut of the application to my main screen. Then, I just lock the device by tapping the lock button during a call.
There's even an option existing to lock the phone automatically when the backlight is off and/or during a call directly.

Oh well! Please, tell me how you do it!
I'd pleased if at least I could manually deactivate the screen in order to avoid touching button with my cheek!
I've been trying to find an option to lock screen during a call without succeed.
Thanks,
Cheers!
I have the same problem. This part fails.
Sorry, but I insist... wingm4n: how do you lock the screen during calls?
I still haven't been able to find such option
Cheers,
Up....
Hit start then lock(at bottom left side of screen) after dialing or answering a call.
i have same issue...not with keylocks but with the screen!!!almost every time i make or receive a call with my phone in my pocket or by ear hd2 make itself an other call or push lots of function..and this is very annoying!!!i don't like s2u2...really doesn't any solution exist for solve this problem???
thank you!
Cheers!!
Smartlock
Take a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505032
It locks the screen during calls, and has some other settings as well. I've been using it for a while and it seems to work just fine. And best of all, its free.
in s2u2 settings, just set: "lock on talk" and deselect "lock device". in this way...lock screen will work only in a call. that's it
I used to have such problem during my first uses with the HD2, I would realize because all of a sudden I heard keypad tones (and so did the other person ) while hitting the dialer with my cheek.
After that, I started noticing IF the proximity sensor triggered or not.
It's not really "idle", it's just very "picky", you actually need your ear to cover it, and not just your head being in its way... I took te habit of checking the phone display with the back of my eye to see if it's on while I answer a call, and if it is all I need to do is to move it on my ear so I touch the area with the proximity sensor the display turns off again. Works for me practically 100% of the times now.
How to turn this off
I have a HD2 running the energy rom and when a call is connected it locks the screen. But I use google voice and need to be able to enter my pin. Anyone know how to get the screen not to lock during a call.
