after installing ozvga and trying it out i have the following problems.
now in regular sevga mode the number keys in the phone app are missing
in ozvga mode the volume button is missing trom the top. and the slider ont he side controls something else now.
any help in fixing these ??
thanks in advance team.
i've searched the forum for hours and hours. just talk of how to install big phone. also i found a thread where everyone was asking that first question. no asnwer.
OzVga problem...
I have the same problem, with a little investigation this is what I turned up. Our OzVga problem has to do with the volume/speaker icon not coming through in VGA mode. The slider seems to be attached to the first icon on the taskbar to the left of the clock. Which in this case is the signal strength/phone icon - which incidentally doesn't display properly on my phone . Which means the slider toggles the phone message box open at the moment. I think the problem has to do with cemail.vol not having a cemail.96.vol counterpart and the phone then gets confused... Helmi or Buzzdev could you please look into this problem or alternatively could someone with a working version of OzVga please post a link to a working version of the cemail.96.vol file to this thread.
Thanks.
what about the phone buttons, then you return to normal res mode, are the phone buttons missing?
Screen buttons...
No I didn't seem to be missing the phone buttons when I switched to SeVGA, however I got so annoyed about this problem that I switched to Helmi's WM6 v1.1 ROM. So far I haven't had any of these problems with it, though I do miss HTC's task manager...
the phone buttons problem i fixed finally, i just had to uninstall vj's bigphone
yeah i'm silly.
the audio slider problem sucks though, i really like ozvga mode, but the problem renders it unusable for me.
Hi i did a search using both the forums built in search and google but i still could not find an answer.
I noticed a tray icon popped up recently on my device, i don't think it's harmful or because of any newly installed application (all i have is PTTFix on it right now and a few registry tweaks) but i was still curious as to what it was.
The icon looks like "!" with a red circle that consists of an arrow.
Thank you in advance!
If it's the Icon I'm thinking of it is what I've been seeing as of late when I set my phone to silent or vibrate and I too have the PTTFix as well as a few other items including the HTC Home theme
I agree, that on mine it's the phone icon when it's set to silent or vibrate.
Yep that appears to be it, thanks for the heads up!
Can't seem to find anything in the wiki to remove it, seems like a redundant icon to have when the top bar clearly shows if the phone is on vibrate/silent.
Now you know what, how about why?
As standard, the phones don't go into Vibrate when you hold the Comm Manager button. This was an add on program by someone here (think Khypur, apologies if I'm wrong) and produced that tray icon when the phone's in Vibrate just to let you know. Since this program came out, it's been integrated into most people's ROMs, hence the icon when the phone's in Vibrate mode.
I personally agree that I'd prefer my ROM without the icon, but I'd also prefer my ROM with "holding Comm Manager button setting/unsetting Vibrate" so I'm quite happy putting up with the icon to get this!

Its that vibrate icon that pops up when you put your phone in vibrate. Its present in AT&T and almost all ROM's based on AT&T.
yes i concur
vibrate icon
Hi All,
Does anyone know how to get this working on our beloved HD's? I hate the way the screen goes completely black during a call, we can't use the light sensor to tell the phone that the call has finished and it is away from your ear (so screen comes back on a la iphone), and i keep doing things during a call with my ear!!
So this seems like the ideal solution - but i can't get it to work!!
I've copied over the file to the windows folder, then soft reset. Changed the registry entry for phoneLockEnable to 1 in HKLM/Software/HTC/Phone but still no joy!
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

Beside this transparent canvas, where can I get the orginal canvas?
I am using a offical ROM but I don't see this function!

that's interesting, because my screen doesn't go blank during calls and it happens quite often that i accidently disconnect a call (i suppose because i hit a button with my ear).
so in search for i solution i found in Advanced config a tab Light sensor > Light sensor polling which i set enabled. the explanation says "uses light sensor to automatically turn screen off when the phone come near from your ear to answer a call". so this should set it like the i-phone does, right?
hence when i tested it, the screen still was on, even when i put my thumb onto the light-sensor.
is this because i don't have a stock rom (i use Duttys HD V1.9b XTREME) or is there something i can do about it.
it would be really nice to have the screen locked when i answer a call and to outomatically unlock it if i remove it from my head to use some function on the screen..

Hi take55,
Yes, i'm aware of the advanced config tweak (also in HD Tweak), and as you correctly state, the screen should/will go blank on call connection (i'm running kwbr's A Touch Of HD 3.3.4 and mine doesn't, even with tweak applied!!).
Unfortunately, when the call ends and you move the phone away from your ear, the screen still stays blank????? I've read somewhere on these forums that it never will work like the iphone (not sure why, as the light sensor should recognise that we've moved the phone away from our ears).
So that is why i'm trying to get this other method to work. What i have noticed is that with the bmp copied over to the windows folder or with a cab i found by A-Math installed, my dialler locks up after every call (as if the transparent phone lock is in place) but i can't actually see it. None of the screen works and i have to soft reset. Maybe something is stopping the bmp to show on the phone....who knows.
It also might be the fact that this was designed for the Diamond (found the cab on the Diamond forums).
Just hoping some genius here might now how to sort this.
I've attached the cab file i've found, give it a try and see if you have the same issue as me.
Regards
DF

It has nothing to do with the BMPs but with the registry setting that the CAB also makes. It sets HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\PhoneLockEnable to 1, in wich case you'll have to press the power button to unock (no need to soft reset). For the BMP to work the phone/dialer software will have to support it, otherwise it just locks the phone in the usual way: black screen, power button to unlock.

tks but your cab only for the canvas skin only, do not contain the original software (slidable canvas), anyway, tks for your help
I've also found this problem to be quite annoying during a phone call but have found some sort of way to deal with it.
Firstly my ROM isn't tweaked, its just the basic one already installed.
After a call is connected, the screen switches off. But if you need to access the screen again during a call, I just press the "Back Arrow" key, one of the four hard buttons on the bottom which brings the screen back up again.
If you press the phone button instead whilst the screen is off, the screen lights up again but it puts the call on hold.
This probably isn't the best way to deal with this, but it seems to work for me for the time being, hope this helps anyone else here.

Useful info - I found this particularly annoying yesterday during a ouple of calls.
Also discovered Gyrator tries to turn the phone screen and was laggy - which was even more annoying!
Everyone!!!
CHECK THIS OUT - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489034
Answer to all our prayers - a screen lock which uses the g-sensor and not the light sensor.
Now, when a call is connected, holding the phone to the ear blacks the screen, but when you bring the phone down (to use the keypad or something), THE SCREEN COMES BACK ON!!!!!!!
Tried and tested on kwbr's A Touch Of HD v3.3.4 (probably the best manila2 ROM out there!)

I wanna make another post here cause in the last post this issue wasnt resolved and i wanna fresh thread here, please only post if you have the solution, thanks hope theres someOne who can get this issue resolved.
Do you use AutoKeylock ?
I had this problem when I started using 6.1 ROMs first.
In my case I had about 6 applications I always installed right off the bat after a new ROM flash. One of those was Maniac's AutoKeylock.
I timed the duration between answering a call and having the call go white one day, and it seemed to me to match precisely with the screen timeout settings I had in AutoKeylock.
I removed the application, and have never seen the problem happen again.
However, I do miss having AutoKeylock.
I realize that this could be totally coincidental, and thus I asked before whether others who had the problem also used AutoKeylock but never got a reply.
Perhaps you can reply as to whether you use it or not. And, if you do, whether removing the application resolves the issue for you.
If there is a correlation then we can alert Maniac to the issue, and he may be able to find a solution.

You know if the reason you miss autokeylock is for the ability to set a time for the screen to turn off and the keypad to lock, smarttoolkit does that, with no problems.

How often it happen?
With my phone running Kavanas I will get a white screen once after a reboot and then I press and button and it goes back to normal and wont do it again. I have gotten used to it.
For some reason I think it has to do with Tornado PowerControl, do you have that installed? I just cant figure it out exactly. Maybe we can find a solution.
We'll i believe this White screen has something to do with the backlight settings in power managment, i find if you leave screen on full and turn off the phone from turning off the screen, the white screen wont happen, this isnt so bad, cause if u want the screen to go off just hold down the disconnect phone button, not too bad cause when your not wanting to use the phone anymore the screen still goes off, also you can turn the backlight off in accessories which is the same as setting the screen to go off automatically in 5 seconds, white screen fixed moreless.
Same issue with Ricky's v24 and now with Rose 1.7
I also am experiencing this issue, but do not have installed neither Maniac's AutoKeylock nor Tornado PowerControl.
It happens sometimes during a call, sometimes not.
It happens when leaving the phone unlocked and timesout idle time. If hit the Home or back buttons, it shows the home screen again and next timeout does work fine.
I have beeing looking up and down for fixes but was unable to find one. Some say turning off "Run Lowlight" JOGGR setting, some say flash after a hard reset...
It seems that running lowlight (joggrinfo.exe -m -t) helps a bit. If the phone is fully bright and rests on the table, the screen goes white after timeout.
However, if run lowlight and let it alone, it turns off the screen normally.
Also when it goes white and hit back or home button, the screen goes mid-bright, and then turns off normally.
However, when unlocking, it goes full bright, and then the issue comes back.
In summary ...
Full Bright -> Times out to whitescreen.
Mid Bright -> Times out to lights off.
Unlock -> Goes full bright -> Times out to whitescreen.
White screen -> Hit Back/Home button goes mid-bright -> Times out to lights off.
It would be great if lowlight could be run when unlocking the device.
Does it work same way for you guys??
Regards.
This will stop White Screen from happening.
ok this is a way to avoid the white screen issue, (Click on Light Config) then open CeleTask and in CeleTask - Tools use Close Screen this will turn off your screen and allow the backlight from turning on when screen turns back on, also remember u need to set your power settings to (Backlight time out on battery 5 Seconds and Backlight on AC can be 1 minute which u never use) and Display time out Never..)
You can also use CeleTask to disable the screen when you make a call, just open CeleTesk when you hit call.
Topic should be changed as not a fix but work around "sortof":
Process of illimination:
My recomendation would be try a hard-reset, don't install any programs see if that fixes it now when installing programs don't bung them all on install 1 @ a time soft-reset give it while see if problem resumes, do this for all software then you may find the culprit?
This is not an issue faced by all so something has to be the culprit.
Bad Flash?
Software Install?
JOGGR?
Power Settings?
They are just examples.
I had this happen once but on WM6 and a hard-reset was what was needed and didn't pop up again........

These instructions have fixed my device... I got an Elf and I made it my primary phone, and now I´m experiencing new ROM´s in my S621. This problem happens in my device (the S621, of course), and I´m now using NRG remade by Ricky and Stylez, and this problem with the screen seems to be solved with this tip.
This problem does not happen when I use "Kavana remade by Ricky and Stylez" only with NRG and it´s Remake.

If this isnt helping try just disabling Timeout and set everything else ur way u want.
Hi,
at times, to start "app" in the lower right I have to touch icon (with your finger) with greater intensity (or repeatedly) while for the other icons (for example, "post") I have to touch with a very slight touch.
Also happens, and that is more annoying, is that the icon "app" sometimes is locked: you can press as you want but nothing happens. In these cases, however, if you touch something else (for example another icon) and then immediately press again app, or wait a bit of time without doing anything, everything goes back to work ... it's like as if something blocks the icon "app ".
The touch test (*#0*#) and everything seems to work correctly (the dots blacken without problems and even lines are drawn well in the zone of the icon “app”).
I am beginning to think it is a sw problem and not an hw problem. I do not know what to do. What do you thing about? Can you help me?
Anyway ... thank you very much!
Greetings
