I've posted on the Q&A thread, and PM'd the Mod as requested and had no response so hopefully someone can help me out.
When I make outgoing calls using the bluetooth stereo in my car the screen comes on and unlocks automatically. This means the End button gets pressed in my pocket and it promptly hangs up. Proximity sensor works fine by my face and incoming calls show the standard HTC lock (slide down to answer or up to dismiss and the stereo can override this. Haven't had it hang up an incoming call, but presumably it could as once answered the screen will be unlocked.
I tried screen suite but it changed the whole look of the phone and was slow as it was showing its own and the stock lock screens. I tried screebl too but that's based on phone orientation which varies depending on which pocket the phone is in.
I don't understand why the screen is unlocking when calls are made over bluetooth - help!

Problem when answer a call via Bluetooth hand set!!!
When answering a phone call with a Bluetooth hand set and the device is in the case the screen remains on during the call, only if I take the device out and than back into the case the screen goes off. The light sensor turns the screen off only if it senses a light and than dark.
Is it possible to do something that when answering a phone call with Bluetooth hand set the screen will turn off (or not turns on at all) automatically to save battery power?
Thanks,
I'm sorry if this has been asked in the past, but I was wondering what happens to your navigation screen when a phone call comes in or when you need to place a call? Now it would be nice not to be doing several things at one time, but if a call comes in while you are trying to navigate, doesn't the call menu come on screen? How do you suppress that? Just wondering as I am looking to get a TP2 via AT&T. Thanks.
Dunno about other kit, but my copy of TomTom6 produces a popup on my iPAQ hw6915, and all I hace to do is answer the call (I use a BT headset with it when driving to stay roadsade as much as possible). The voice directions from TomTom remain muted while the call is in progress, by the way.
hi
While using GPS (GARMIN XT), the phone screen appears in case of incoming call.
I always use my bluetooth earphones while using GPS.
GPS voice will be thru the speaker and call on bluetooth.
After the call, the screen turns back the the GPS view automatically.
I use my phone for work and just leave it plugged in whenever on a conference call, so the screen doesn't time out (checked setting). Now I love the feature of the screen blacking out via proximity sensor whenever not using a BT, just my ear, then the screen turning back on when I move my head away.
However, whenever I'm away from the charger and on a call using my BT earpiece, the screen times out very quick. And there's no way to get the screen back on using the power button at that point, as it'll just hang up the call. My BT does not have mute functionality, and there are times when I need to click Mute or use the dial pad... and at that point, I'm SOL.
I've put a Screen On widget on my desktop and in the notification bar, but the screen times out too quickly for me to remember to tick it. And that's a pain to do anyway on every BT call when not connected to power.
Question... Is there any kind of setting that once the bluetooth option is checked in the dialer, that the screen could stay on longer? Or would this need a mod? Thanks.
Hi,
When I'm on a call using a headset with the phone resting on a desk, etc, the screen will turn off after a period of time (as I expect it to).
When I reach for my phone to interact with the dialpad, mute buttons, etc when still on a call, I press the power button to waken the screen, then slide to unlock.
But when I slide to unlock during a call, the call is aborted, every time. What am I doing wrong? How do I prevent aborted calls when I try to unlock the phone?
Many thanks.
Anyone have any ideas on how to keep the screen turned off while accepting a call through Bluetooth?
In this scenario, I answer the call while working out and the screen turns on (while in pocket) and starts pushing numbers or hangs up.
Thank you
check the notification settings, set to sound only vs wake screen
