Hi,
I maybe wrong but so far I think I've nailed this down to task managers installed by either the rom developer or the user that normally aren't in the base rom.
Examples: spb mobile shell, spb plus, possibly even htc task manger.
reason: if you notice spb plus has a Red X option for closing applications when you tap the X, instead of minimizing them to the background. it also brings up a quick menu if you hold the stylus too long on a scroll bar and are scrolling a page slowly using the stylus. if you have this menu drop downwhenyou lift the stylus in that brief period that you do to put it back at the top to scroll further you may end up accidently taping the close application that shows on that menu. it can be triggered by other means on screen and maybe behind the problem.
I've had similar since I run both spb mobile shell and spb plus and have been too lazy to disable the task managers since the schaps rom I run now already has htc's task manager in it by default and is loaded on boot.
try disabling all task managers the show one the top task bar and that recognise screen gestures.
*thank god for full qwerty keyboard on this hermes as i've already done 2 posts today and were this an artimis i' be crazy or not post when I'm out and just relaxing in car in the morning due to artimis doesn't have a mechanical keyboard only onscreen hahaha*

Hi there,
I have the brilliant Dutch ADW 1.1 ROM. Since yesterday however the HTC AudioManager stops playing when I press the off button, while before it didn't.
Does anyone know how to keep it playing again when the device is "off"?
TIA
PS. A program that keep all buttons but power and the screen locked, even when a call comes in also would to the trick.
On my P3600 + Faman WM6 french ROM, I manage to do it the following way :
1 - allow the WM6 screen lock option to appear into the Today screen (trying to translate from French : open the parameters panel in the start menu, select Today/Elements, select "Screen lock" and press "OK" ;
2 - go back to the Today screen and lock the screen ;
3 - now, pressing the on/off button will switch the screen backlight off without stopping the HTC manager.
Hope it works for you.
I use S2U2 and FTouchFlo, so that when I slide my finger right to left, it activates S2U2. Pretty nifty
Doesn't use that much extra battery either.
@deago, I tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. Music still stops when I press the off button, but thanks though
I'll try S2u2 tonight, but I think it is basically the same as slide2unlock, and that works, but not realy how I would like.
And... it workt before, so what's changed?? :S
I use AudioManager with the HTC Home Plugin thing and music keeps playing when I hit the off button. I'm using udk 6.1 rom
I was having the same problem on my P3600, with Axel's wm6 rom. Deago's fix didnt work for me, the only thing i've found so far is that if u install SPB Pocket Plus, u can get a little icon on your Today Screen that's called "Screen Toggle" and when u press it it turns the screen off and locks the keys and everything but the music continues to play in the background.
Hope i helped =)
Since last night my t-mo TP2 has been really slowing loading up (this is AFTER "windows 6.1" green screen and "loading TF3D"....even if i touch the screen nothing moves. touch flow works fine after 5 min but Opera Mobile and other programs open very slow. screen rotation doesn't react and also parts of the screen image from previous pg remain when i go to a new program. By "quick menu", i mean the top right corner where u can get to the task manager (i do have this turned ON in my settings).
Can someone pls help me??
i really don't wanna do a hard reset so do i have any other options? THX.
okay, quick menu finally shows up after 15 min or so? it seems like everything is running smooth.
i hope this isn't normal cuz it happens to me every time i power off and turn it back on.
Eeep, I'll be watching this, I love QuickMenu! If ATT ever releases the TP2, that is..
damn no replies. i'm having the same problem with my sprint touch pro 2. loading where i can actually use and that will respond fairly quickly takes a good 5 min. fortunately, after everything seems to work fine but there are times i soft reset to clear everything and slow load, EVERYTIME.
can someone help? I have S2U2 and have tried EVERY combination of options, don't think it can be any of the other utilities I installed
QuickMenu works just exactly the way it's always worked for me on the Tilt.. I haven't ever seen it run slowly. I ran the older version at first, then installed the new version so I could increase the spacing to make it easier for finger poking, both worked just fine.
Not sure however if I used it with TF3D, I nuked that after a day. I suppose it's easy enough to switch, so I did, and still no trouble. I have it assigned to my Win key, if I want to launch the "honeycomb" I tap the Start Menu text. I use a bit of a combo of both. I don't really use any special settings, about all I set is to auto start, register win key, right arrow to close program, x button long press to close, don't mess with anything else.
When I boot up after reset or power off, the homescreen displays top task bar, bottom soft keys, and displays "launching TouchFlo3D..." and then... nothing. The screen stays like this until I tap it, and then it displays the home screen. Anybody else seeing this?
Even when just switching it on from a while on standby, I get a black screen.
I press the home or start buttons, and the home screen comes on ...... when it feels like it
I have never got no one to answer a question on here good luck...

Does touching the screen make it start?
I know that not turning off TF3D before installing some cabs can make it behave oddly- TF3D restarts, fails to launch at boot, etc...
Mine does the same thing except its just a plain screen until I touch it then it says launching tflo
Might have something to do with locking the device with a PIN/password. Try to disable that and see if many of your problems go away (switching to home screen on coming out of sleep or turning the screen on when in call and taking the phone away from the ear etc).

It has something to do with the PIN lock code, you're right.. now we just need someone to look into this further who knows how to troubleshoot these issues from the back-end.
Bump for more answers!

so i've tried checking on/off Today/Item/TF3D, tried Flight Mode, and it still won't work. i'm talking like only 30-50% of the time it does work. and I never had PIN1 enabled!
i'm no programmer but it is conflicting with apps we install because TF3D works perfectly when the phone was fresh or hard-resetted. btw i'm using 6.1 Stock T-mobile
Very simple and very very light application.
Does exactly what it says on the TIN.
The reason I compiled this application is purely to avoid using power button as I don’t want it to worn out. To turn the screen on or off we have to use power button which might stop working if we use the button too much. This application will cut the use of the power button by 50% at least
Rather than using the power button to turn the screen on and off, tap on this application to turn the screen off. Very small application V1.0
I might release another one when I get feedback from the users.
If you want just exe file then copy it in to your phonewindows->start menu-> program folder
Or use cab file which will install it on the above location for you
Enjoy !!!!
Trying to be contructive, the way this application could be more useful (to me) would be if it triggered the standard screen lock at the same time as switching off the screen. This would save me tapping 'start' then 'lock' and then pressing the power button.

hiya,
much appreciate for your comments. do you mean turning screen off as well as locking the screen..? so that when you touch the screen it won't come back on...?
I'm working on to prepare better version i.e. it would be on the home screen so that no clicking on start menu and then this app.
cheers

I think he means that you program should not only turn off the devise, but also lock it with the standard WM lock at the same time. That would be good for me, at least.

screen off + lock at same time only pressing Powerbutton.
It work perfectly for me so as it is. I changed the left soft-key so that it will start "turn off the light.exe" .When the screen is off S2U2 will lock the screen. So I can turn off and lock the screen with only one click.
To change the soft key do this:
with a registry editor go to HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/ . in HomeLSKPath (left softkey) or HomeRSKPath (right softkey) write the address to "turn off the light.exe". HomeLSKText and HomeRSKText are the text for the softkeys.
That´s it!
update for touch diamond
hi everyone,
massive thanks to all those who provided replies. I have tried on my blackstone (Touch HD) and it does seems to turn off the screen plus all keys as well.
I can confirm that it doesnt lock all the keys i.e. doesnt lock the device on touch diamond model. I'll modify the program and upload the newer version with the feature of locking the keys plus turning off the screen.
once agian special thanks to everyone.
Certainly reading the comments above, people seemed to understand what I was getting at. With the screen off, the buttons on a HD will indeed be non-responsive, however if an event (SMS or similar) woke the screen, the device would be in an unlocked state. What I would be interested in is a program that turned off the screen and invoked the standard WM lock program (gwes.exe?).
Hope that makes sense.
i like this application but i think the icon is really ugly..
Hi,
is there a possibility to do a screen unlock application which can be activated by voice commander? the situation is this...
I used voice commander to launch google maps while my hand is busy when the screen is lock. however, i will need a program which can be initiated by the voice commander to unlock the screen so that i can navigate the maps. Right now i will have to unlock the screen the normal way which i find voice commander redundant since i'll have to use my finger during lunching anyway.
Can you help me on this? Many thanks in advance. =)

Here is the app that has the feature which you prefer:

Thanks for the link!
Been using this app so i dont have to fumble with the power button to turn the screen off. Seems this app only turns off the screen and doesnt actualy put the phone in sleep. I would like an app like this that acts as the power button does. So when i put the phone to sleep with the icon, i cant accidently slide the keyboard out a touch and have the phone wake up.
The whole deal has to do with tilt 2's keyboard sensor and magnet cases. With this app, the keyboard sensor still activates when sliding into a magnet flap case, while having slie to wake disabled

Hiya,
I'm working on the program so that you can have configuration option to simulate power button to put phone in sleep mode or jus to turn the screen off. This utility was just for people who want to save power whilst listening to the music, etc.
Please keep any ideas/suggestion coming. Much appreciated guys.
Watch the space guys....
That is great inítiative. I use the screen off function actually for the purpose to save power when navigation. screen off when there is a long straíght way to drive.
Put device to sleep mode will cause gps signal lost, which is not so nice.
I can image that there will be a lot of person who wnat to have different adds-on on this small application, it might be a solution to provide command argument.
Thank you.
I will try to see whether this one works for my purpose. Actually in my situation, I even don't want any key be locked as these keys are mapped for navigation.
How about screen toggle thus it is possible to map this application to a key?
awesome, i mapped the exe to a hardware key next to standby. now i can easily save power while wardr listening to music. ^_^
it combines very well with s2u2 locking function too.
big thanks!

Tom, may be it was to late to find your toggle light off switch, but it was very important for me to find it, thank you man, you solved a terrible issue for me, which is that programs stop updating (eg: twitter) when the device is in standby mode.
I heard that you can release another one, so my feedback is:
it takes about 2 seconds to turn off the light, isn't there any faster??? ))
This application is great. Combined with the S2U2 and HD Tweak i don't even have to use the power button at all. Device locked by S2U2 as soon as i turn off the light, waking up device by pulling out the stylus and rebooting with the help of HD Soft reset. Thanks
P.S. You should really add a decent icon, even though people can change it if they want to.
hi,
since i've put the brand new latest ROM from htc.com on my htc touch pro 2... text messaging is a real issue...
the problem is:
i get a text, so i press the "text" icon in the bottom menu.
it shows the last one i allready read... so i have to move up by stroking the screen with my finger.
i get to see the new message.
when i press "reply" in the menu, i automaticly open the keyboard (it's a habbit).
first i have to wait till the screen tilted and the phone is done thinking.
then i just type and press "send".
i close the keyboard and have to wait for several seconds before the screen changes from landscape mode to portrait mode.
after waiting for a while i press the "home" button, and again i'm waiting for several seconds before i get to see my home screen.
my phone acts as if i'm trying to run windows 7 on a 386 dx4 that's over 15 years old (if you know what i mean).
it's really annoying because it takes me very long to read, type and send a message.
what i would like to change:
open with the newly recieved text message.
quicker response when i press "reply".
quicker response when i close the keyboard.
quicker close of the "message program".
no stalling at all....
any ideas?
nobody has a cleu?

Hey for quicker response when closing the message program, instead of closing the program with the "X", try using the Arrow hardware button instead. It doesnt work all the time for me, but most of the time the phone doesnt freeze as it used to when i would press "X".
Go to your messages>all messages>menu>tools.sorty by and select "received"
see if that helps. As for the lag, I don't know how many processes you are running but you may want to give "HTC Clean Ram" a shot. I run it once every couple of days and on average it clears up around 20 mbs of memory. BsB tweaks is another option since there are couple of options there to enhance performance.
