CM7 call screen problem - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Wondering if anyone else had this problem. I'm on CM7 and on my call screen, im getting this weird call bar in the background. Looks like something from the sense rom. Before I installed this rom, I did a full wipe so I don't know if it's my phone or a CM7 bug.
Any idea how to fix this? Thanks

Change the lock screen in CM Settings back to Sliding Tab.

Awesome thanks! It worked. I personally don't like the sliding tab, so when i switched back to my preferred lock screen the funky bar was gone.

Yeah that was my only problem with using the rotary lock screen. So I went to plain lense. lol

If you use rotary instead of rotary revamped it works as well.

this is a issue and its been fixed the nightly...

Vanilla lock screen and alarms.

Installed vanilla lock screen by removing the htc sense one and loving it. Only problem if when my alarms go off when the screen is off I can't turn the alarm off. Any ideas for a solution?
Thanks

I believe you have to uninstall the HTC Clock and use the Vanilla clock instead. This is what i did to get it to work on the Fresh ROM. Not sure if there is another way but this is what worked for me and after installing fresh 3.2 i havent put the vanilla lock screen back on since it doesn't show the music app when its locked.
The world clock doesn't work well with the vanilla lock screen. You have to download a theme from the fresh updater that removes the world clock and adds the vanilla clock.
yea just go to Fresh's website geekforme or do a search for vanilla lock and he has a set of choices for you
here you go http://geekfor.me/hero/fixes/bugfixes-requests-lock-screens/
So whats the big deal with the vanilla lock screen? Everyone seems to like it so much better then senses. I don't use the music app, so i don't have a need for that functionality.
i jsut like how it looks i like having the 2 slides (one for silent one for lock and like the side to side vs the down.
overll it functions almost exactly the same except for cosmetics. so it is really a personal prefrence

[Q] [Request] Vanilla Slide To Answer [DEVS PLEASE]

The HTC SENSE slide up and down is driving me nuts when i carry my phone in my pocket i either answer or decline the call before i even see who it is.....
Ive searched countless forums for a Vanilla Slide to Answer just like the Slide to Unlock/ringer Slide and with no luck have i come across such mod..
Can any devs look into this or possibly point me in the right direction thanks
I believe the slide to answer/decline is part of the Phone.apk tied to Sense. A possible solution would be to try the AOSP Phone.apk but i'm not 100% if it will work.

Thanks i'll look into that.....
Got the same issue and it also drives me nuts. Idiotic design.
I think you just use Root Explorer to delete /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk, then reboot. I've done it before.

nm the attached zip is just for lockscreen, not calls.
I was running Caulkins new rom and he has a different slide to answer lockscreen, so it can be done
Would really love to see this mod. The current design is absolutely idiotic. Cm6 currently had it. By just installing the aosp dialer does not give you this lock screen.

I'm tired of hanging up on people whenever i pull the phone out of my pocket, is what your requesting able to fix that?
I haven't found anything on changing the Call Slide to Answer Function without changing to another rom..... Would love to see a Signed or ADB Push way to do it to a Deodexed or Odexed Rom.....
Currently using the Newest OTA Odexed with Vanilla Lockscreen
Now if we could get a DEV to just make the Call Slide to Answer i and a few others would be very Grateful.....
But in the Meantime i will continue to search
Check out an app in the market called WidgetLocker. It replaces the lock screen and not only allows you to add widgets and shortcuts making the lockscreen a usuable screen, but you can select from sense slider, vanilla slider, iphone slider, and android rotary slider. It's the best app out there in my opinion.
Edit: you can set it to put itself in front of the call screen so that you need to unlock before you can slide to answer thus preventing unwanted answering.

I can confirm this does work but as the OP says, it's not ideal. If you try it out you'll see it's not all that elegant. Would be sweet if someone smarter than me could come up with a way to do it right.
If your rooted, go to Titanium Backup and uninstall the apk "htcsenselock". After uninstalled reboot your phone and you are in business. You will still have sense minus the annoying lock screen.
Edit:
Scratch that, it only changes the normal screen unlock...not the phone answer unlock.

Don't let this die!!
srsly! BUMP!
I hate this stupid slide up/down to unlock BS!
Guess no one can do this
yea this sucks man I either want to get rid of it or find out which file is it that you remove or edit so I can make my own slide to answer .png
This is one of the only reasons I've dropped my Sense roms and migrated to CM6. After using it for a few days and many hours of tweaking it with themes and widgets, it's nearly back looking like an HTC and not a G1 but with the super sexy vanilla lock.
Just delete HTCLockScreen.apk and you'll have a horizontal vanilla slider lock screen.

Is there a way to change the lockscreen without root?

Maybe there is a setting that I am overlooking to change it
I hope there is, cause I hate it!

Download agile lock from market, or something like that

you can change the lockscreen wallpaper by going into settings / display / screen display. There is a section for the lock screen. Just click on wallpaper and you can change it. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Looking to replace the lockscreen myself, but in the meantime you can at least change the image on the stock lockscreen by going into the gallery, selecting an image, hit menu->Set As->Lock screen wallpaper
better than nothing!
got it thanks
I used to use WidgetLocker on my Desire when it was still running Sense. It worked generally well. Sometimes it would clash with the Sense lock screen and I had to go through the Sense lock screen after the WidgetLocker lock screen. Though most of the time it worked fine. Maybe it wont have any problem with the Touchwiz lockscreen.

Try Ripple Lock, it's a Honeycomb lock with a single pulltab in the middle. It will replace your lockscreen without root, there is even an option to fix double lock (Galaxy S issue), you will need to enable mode 2.
here's what is looks like.....
I'm using widgetlocker. Put it on my phone about 5 seconds after turning it on. Has been working perfect with no issues.

I have a passcode enabled and my lockscreen is only the screen where you are suppose to enter the passcode. How would I make the lockscreen be a normal lockscreen where I have to slide to unlock and then enter my passcode?
Ditto...WidgetLocker for me as well. Simple quick and easy.
I use lockbot.

Wierd CRT sreen display.

Running Calk's E4GT v.3.0 and Overstew's ICS theme v2.5. When turning on/off screen crt animation gets all jumbled up, like thick white pixalated bands, if I reboot its ok for a while, then it comes back after a while.
Anyone notice this?

I noticed it does it for me too. Seems to start after restoring a nandroid backup. Looking for the zip to try and reflash it.
*Update*
It stops doing it after you reboot phone, it comes back after a while, after using phone for a while. No biggie though.

Yup. Same here.

Happens to me on EVERY TW ROM. The ICS AOSP ROMs seem to not have that problem though
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It's an ICS related issue, so ROMs based off the leaks will most likely have it.
This is a known issue. I believe people call it "fuzzy" CRT screen off. Happens with Calkulins, Blazer Rom, and I assume the rest of the TouchWiz based lot. However on AOSP Roms (Miui, CyanogenMod, Codename, AOKP), both ginger bread and ICS, it works fine. There is no solution. Besides rebooting.
#### update ####
After several days of the fuzzy crt screen and rebooting it seems to have stop doing it. Have not noticed it over past several days, I would say that all is well..

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with missing lib files since our phone didn't have crt off animation in the first place. If you find the lib files for the fancy screen rotation animation it will fix the white but put the phone upside down as you press the power button.
I have an issue where the screen flashes after the crt animation. It's not weird looking, just a split second of what ever I was looking at. I've only noticed it when I use the power button to turn the screen off. I'm on blend 4.0.
Also, my wife has the same issue on blend 2.6.2, one of my friends has this on stock, and said his girlfriend has it on stock, too.
edit:They are using go locker, no animation, but still get a screen flash.
Not at all an issue I'm worried about. It seems like the animation isn't long enough, like the phone doesn't make it to sleep before the animation is over. No educated idea though, just a theory.

I thought it happened when you did a screen capture but stops after a reboot.

slide and lose icons

Somehow when I slide to switch screens or just slide to unlock, sometimes I lose icons in the lower "sticky" part of the screen. Recently, the phone dialer, messaging, and the app icon disappeared.
I've had this happen on GB and various ICS. Right now I'm using Apex on Dark Side Evolution from May 9th.
I have finally made a backup and fortunately was able to restore. But it's frustrating to need to use the dialer and it's gone!
What am I donig wrong?
Make sure that you are using darkside superwipe before installing any new custom rom.
If that method doesn't work try going into settings any restore it.
What launcher are you using
