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 folks,
a quick question: since I am using WM6 my tytn always displays the today screen after comming from the suspend mode or blanc screen. This was definitly not the behaviour it did with WM5. An example:
When I'm listening to music with the built in Windows Media Player I like to turn off the screen (using the built in blanc screen function) to save battery. When I switch on the device again to change music or something the device always displays the today sceeen instead of the media player application and I have to switch back to the media player window manually. That drives me crazy as it is not the way it behaved using WM5.
Is there any possibility to change this behaviour in the way, that WM6 shows the last used application instead of the today screen when resuming from suspend mode or blanc screen?
Thank you!
Check you Today settings.
Go to Start>Settings>Today>Items tab and investigate the "Today Timeout" setting.

I checked this already. The described problem is not related to the Today timeout setting. It appears every time, after a few seconds blanc screen anyway. Try it, you'll see.
i have also experianced this, is really annoying, anyone have any ideas how to resolve it...?

Hi!
The best prgm I used for this reason is PPcsoft psShutXP u can have it on tray and u gona have 3 alt. Light Off Shut Down and Soft Reset strike on Light Off it works fine
I like this "feature". Problem I have is if I leave outlook open, I don't get a LED notification of new mail. At some point I had a ROM installed that always went back to the today screen and seem to resolve my issue. Is this something that can be changed in the registry?
Cal
nobody knows anything about that? Can't believe that there are not more people out there, who suffer from this issue

Hi!
I think if u try the program I mentioned at #5 u gona like it. Here is the link
http://ppcsoft.narod.ru/english/
same problem here...
BatteryStatus
I think this might be related to BateryStatus Today Plugin.
There is a check box under "Tools" - "Show Today Screen on WakeUp". If you uncheck this it stops behaving in this way.

Thanks for sharing the link but I think, this will not solve the problem for me: as far as I can see you have to go to the today screen anyway to reach the buttons this tool provides. So I haven't got anything....
Great stuff! Batterystatus really solved the problem...just set the tool to not show today screen and it works. Thanks for the hint!
(though I really don't understand that MS doesn't support this feature?!)
Hi, its not that MS doesn't support it, its that its enabled on some roms, and others not, mine always returns to whatever app it was on, after suspend, If you wanted to help figure out the cause, I suggest you install sktracker, and do a before and after the battery status install, and see what key that option in battery status is changing, I don't much care for battery status myself.
Start > Settings > Today > Items Tab
UNCHECK the Today Timeout
Today Timeout means that if the device is left unchecked for say, the Default "4 Hours" than after 4 hours, no matter what program window was running, it defaults back to the today screen when the device is reawakened
pssibly a bug in your OS or some program you are running makes it so every time you turn it back on
but uncheck that and maybe youll have some luck??
i had a similar problem with my iPaq hx4700 where if i was at the today screen, it would keep flickering, refreshing it every 1 second
i disabled the today timeout, and viola, its worked fine since
I have this issue too.

Unrelated. I have BS installed and that option is NOT checked, yet it still does it.
This is very annoying, I like mine to sleep after 2 mins (to save power and lock the keyboard). then back to the today screen and have to switch to what I was doing..
Related to the Lock setting?
I have the same problem, and I think it is related to the lock settings. When I enable a simple PIN, my phone always returns to the Today screen after leaving suspend, regardless of the settings in the Today aplet.
If I disable the simple pin in the Lock settings applet, the pone returns to the last used application (unless the today timeout has been exceeded, as one would expect).
Hopefully that will help someone discover a fix. This problem did not occur in WM 5.

Hey, you are absolutely right. The problem won't be fixed by Batterystatus. I just mad a hardreset and didn't set a password, so I thought batterystatus fixed it.
It is a bug with the built in password function. So, is there anybody out there, who is able to fix that?
As said before, the Today showing after power-on the device is "another" problem caused by the WM6 Password Lock System. It's necessary to disable the password that locks the device to fix it.
And it's not the only problem. Be warned, don't try this at home!!!; if you got a password active and then you change the Owner Name without changing the password, you will find after the next reboot that your machine is unreachable because the password isn't recognized at all.
Incredible but true!
Hi there all, I have a problem which is a bit annoying, the battery meter in the taskbar always displays a full battery. Is there some sort of registry tweak i can do to get it back to normal.
I noticed it stopped working after installing HTC Home Customizer V0.8b by 'emunutz'
Under the options tab in the HTC Home Customizer there is an option to always display clock in the titlebar, since selecting this and then turning it off, my battery meter stopped working.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks!
un-install the htc customizer and soft reset, see if it goes back to normal
sometimes ive found 2 programs can conflict with each other and cause a glitch in the system
Hello, thanks for the reply, i done a fix around for it. I installed Batterystaus plugin for the homescreen and have the clock displayed in the taskbar.

Hi,
i have done that but the problem still persist. i tried looking for a reg tweak but unable to do so.
Hi!
I have installed both Gyrator 2 and Galarm 1.2.3 in my blackstone.
When the alarm rings both snooze actions when 'when device turned down' and 'when you shake the device' do not work.
I know that it is because of Gyrator.
Is there a fix on this?
g
Hi!
I think Version 1.03 of Galarm is working good with shake for closing program also with screen off
FYI. There's a new version - 1.2.4. But same problem, tilt sensor feature doesn't work.
I 've heard that this problem is solved if you differentiate some settings in the Gyrator application.
Anyone with a hint on this?
g
Hey guys, there's a new version GAlarm 1.4. The tilt sensor feature is working great!!
http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=download
the new version seems working ok.
thank you

The last app I installed was Galarm. I did this last night.
Since then I have had a few problems with my HD.
1) twice since midnight last night I have used TF3D to access settings > communications, before loading the communications screen the device hangs, then I hear the default beep randomly and untill I perform a soft reset.
2) Soft key menus have been very buggy all through the OS. Most noticable in Opera, and Coreplayer. Taping the soft key menu results in just an outline being shown while the actual menu is transparent.
While installing Galarm it asked me if it could fix a known bug, I allowed it to. But am now wondering if this could have been the cause?
I'm not blaming Galarm per se, but it is the last piece of software that I installed. Has anyone else had similer problems?

Yes I get the same menu problems, if you press up or down then the menu choices appear but often vey corrupted. I stopped using Galarm for a couple of days and I never had the problem, I used it this mornning and my menus got corrupted again. At the same time I get my start menu appearing blank (transparent). I'm going to download another clock program and use it for a month then I'll switch to Galarm for a definitive test.
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!)
