ive asked in several forums, but its always no dice for me. anyways.
is there anyway to get the vibrate off of my lock screen when sliding the tabs on CM7? i know it sounds nit-picky, but i feel as my g2 as a vibration problem and it bothers me, a lot. it just isnt as smooth as any other htc device i have handled. its almost louder than i can actually fell. haha. any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance!

I've asked many times myself and have never gotten a straight answer that has worked; going to be issuing a report in the bug tracker once I'm on the next stable build, if its still there.

Same here. I now use Trackball unlock to bypass the sliding tab.

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 would like to have this also. Pulling the phone out of my pocket often results in prematurely answering a call I didn't want to take. Especially while wearing my Motley Crue stonewashed edition ballhuggers.

Happens to me all the time.
This should just be an option in the menu somewhere. Side-side or up-down.
Common HTC you can do it!

JUST slide to answer? Or Vanilla lock as well?
Via EVO on XDA app...
I just switched back to sense using the Desire HD rom. but I'm remembering the biggest thing i hate about sense: swiping up and down on incoming calls. Obviously I keep my phone in my pocket and locked most of the time, so getting a call and pulling my phone from my pocket answers or declines the call for me depending on which way its sitting in there. why htc decided to use this, I dont know but it sucks.
My question would be: has someone figured out how to change this to the standard form of answering/rejecting calls? Even the galaxy s phones uses vanilla style but we get the crap up and down bar.

Use a root explorer program and delete the htc lockscreen, under it is the vanilla one, the one where you slide left and right

I tried that on all the standard sense roms and that only changed the lockscreen for me, but not the incoming calls. also, on the Desire HD rom, I can't even delete the apk because it causes bootloops for some reason.

Deleting the lockscreen apk has no bearing on the phone apk.
To answer the OP, there is currently no way to disable the slide to answer function that I am aware of as this question has come up repeatedly in the dev forum. Deleting the phone apk causes some fairly significant issues, as you can imagine.

yea I thought so. I figured it would have to do with phone apk calling up the function from android.policy or services.jar wasn't sure if anyone knew how to change it.

This is the reason I will never consider switching back to any Sense based rom. I have accidently answered/declined a call more times than I can remember. Thank god the rebooting issue was figured out for the AOSP roms.

Search for No Lock or Easy Answer Button in the market. Either app should provide a suitable workaround.

I don't understand the workaround with No Lock. This application in not to unlock the device with a button?
I've installed Easy Answer Button. It doesn't work perfectly, and I have the same problem: the case answer or cancel randomly a incoming call
Thanks!
Same for me i need to change this method of answer call , i've tested Easy answer button , tedd droid tools but it's really what i want.
I want to slide on the left or on the right in order to answer or reject a call.
Someone can help me please ?
Edit: I've found what i want with cyanogen mod , it's perfect now .
That was my big problem with slide way answering a call too, but it's not anymore due to SimplyLock app that I found in market.
Hope it will help all guys who ran into the same problem.
I searched a few hours for a solution of this problem and finally found one i will try now.
The App I installed is called HD Caller ID and is free.
So for you, looking for a solution try this App. Maybe it´s good for your belongings.

Not possible for an AOSP ROM (which I presume you're using).
That answer screen is part of the Sense framework. To port that over would mean to port over the entire framework, which isn't possible.
Thank you, no kind of alternative huh?? She really likes that "iphone" stuff.. but unfortunatelty.. she's stuck now with the TMOUS leak , unrooted.. until there's a downgrade.., everything else is perfect, except she's tired of the slides.. which is dumb IMO same process right?

I don't believe there is an alternative, though I could be wrong. The AOSP answer screen is part of Phone.apk and I don't believe there has been an alternative to that.
You can use alternate dialers like DialerOne (http://www.appbrain.com/app/dialer-one/kz.mek.DialerOne) which changes the dialing screen, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't change the answer screen.
Sliding or pressing to answer calls doesn't matter to me, sliding just requires a tiny bit more finger effort, lol. Tell her it's good for her finger muscles lol.
I did notice that if the phone is "awake" and someone calls, you get the "push to answer" option instead of the slider. And when it's locked, you get the "slide to answer" option. Makes sense because they want to make it harder for you to answer a call on accident when the phone is locked and in your pocket. So if someone modified Phone.apk to always present you with the "push to answer" screen, then your problem would be solved.
If you're familiar with ADB, have you tried the downgrading thread over at the development section? Supposedly you can downgrade and root any G2 with it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055581
Then you could just load up an MIUI or Sense ROM onto her phone and she'd be happy

Yeah, I've rooted her phone and all.. put sense, miui, and cm roms on it but they always have problems.. so I unrooted but then put the PC10IMG of gingerbread on it and since there's no downgrade available right, she's stuck at slides now

Lol that sucks. I love Sense and MIUI ROMs but they're a little too slow for me. I've had the most success with the InsertCoin ROM. Pretty smooth, not as smooth as CM7 though... Of course that's just my opinion.
I'VE SEEN THE APK FOR A COUPLE DIFFERENT PHONES TO GET RID OF THE INCREASING RINGER WHERE THE RINGER IS QUIET AT FIRST. IS THERE A DEV GENIUS AND KIND ENOUGH TO DO THE MAGIC ON THE EPIC TOUCH TO GET RID OF THE INCREASING RINGER? HERE'S A LINK FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SGS2.

These links don't really provide any useful information about what was actually done. If you can show me the actually mod, I'll look into it.... I would need to see the actual edits and I don't have the time to tear apart the other phone.apk in order to find it.
I don't mind helping but I would need a place to start....
Bump!?
This annoys me as well.

Just did a write-up here.
Is it just me or does everyone else agree that the stock keyboard is unusable. Simple texts or emails take 5 times longer then just using the android keyboard. Its horrible. Horrible prediction and does actions I never even ask it to do. Haven't even got to the lag!!! I know there is a mod to fix the lag but I don't think it does much. Anyone else dealing with this?? Anything I can do?
I can't say I agree. The keyboard on the LG G3 has to be one of the best I have ever used. Very close to the one on the iPhone in terms of responsivenss, pretty much no lag and the predictions are quite good.
Have you tried the advanced settings for the keyboard?
The only issue I have with it is not inserting spaces as I'm swiping.
Tbh i love it. Its really great.
What lag are you talking about thats because of the LG keyboard?
For me the keyboard is very fast and the prediction is perfect. It looks good aswell and is very customizable.
It's just you the stock key board is one of the first I have not had or wanted to change soon at I turned the phone on
First stock keyboard that hasn't made me switch to swiftkey... Yet anyway
Glad I noticed this post. I had automatically installed swiftkey and turned it off for a while to see if I liked the LG keyboard. It seams very responsive and easy to use. I love the way you can increase the size of the keyboard.
Yeah the keyboard is pretty bad.
I used it for 1 month straight and was too tired of its errors. I didn't see any lag with it but things like swiping to "is" and getting "it's" drove me nuts and wasted a ton of time correcting. Far too many of these types of errors.
Back to Swype and it works perfect as always.
I like it at first but now reverted back to the Google Keyboard. I find the predictive not that good, say you wanted totype "Ship" it would automatically correct it to "Shop". Any word typed that is not in the dictionary it replaces with one that is, its trying to be too clever.
But the biggest problem is I get this bug where I can only type numbers.
There are good things about this keyboard, numbers shown on top row and excellent spacing of keys.

I'm having this same problem. There has got to be a fix for it, I've tried everything I can think of.
Ok, so switch to another keyboard. Seriously, these types of threads are out of control here. Are we getting all the rejects from the rest of XDA? Are all the smart folks buying other phones? What is going on here.
That was a little harsh. Last I checked this was a discussion board.

You know, you can easily ignore threads with titles that don't interest you instead of complaining... This is a thread about a feature on the phone that this forum is for - it is perfectly on topic.
I agree with the OP its one of the worst I've used because of how tiny the buttons are, I just switched to stock Google and am typing much faster because of it.
Just use Swiftkey, it's free !

No i didnt although opening it again after reading your post and i have noticed that the keyboard updated to a more modern ios type look which is nicer than the bubbly one it shipped with.
Install the Google keyboard, it's fantastic.
Well, kinda agree on this...i stopped using it too, try the google L keyboard... I found it easier to type and use as well. Is available on xda, just search for L keyboard... Comes as apk, can be aplied on non rooted device
