Hey everybody,
I use cm11:
if a switch the phone app (not dialer! (truephone)) in the taskbar during a call to another app, (lets say telegram to check something..) and get back to the phone app its not possible. its seems the phone app is just invisible, cause the call is still running and its possible to open the dialer to end the call. but the proximity sensor is only working in the phone app.. is there a way to make the phone app visible again?
Or is there maybe a solution to change the aosp stock phone app to another one?
thanks everybody!

Hi,
Sometimes, when my DHD is in my pocket and it rings, I take it out of my pocket and, Unintentionally, rejecting the call (it seems that I am touching the screen).
Any idea how to stop it from happen?
Hi, I use Call Confirm App as I used to have the same problem, thankfully not anymore now.
What is the name of the apps?
Thanks
Call Confirm App
I installed it but it is good only for outgoing calls.
I need an app for incoming calls.
Oops sorry about that still haven't got rid of my hangover yet.
Only other thing I can suggest is get a leather-ish flip case.
I use one I got off the "bay" and it does the job OK.
Del.
Thanks.
No app?
I have exactly the same problem.
If you like, you can check my theme here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911474 and especially its last post... but I havent found any "full" solution yet.
I have the same problem too.. :/ The only solution so far is to pull it out from the pocket very carefully without touching the screen. That just annoys the hell out of me.
I believe this will solve your problem. It's in the market and it allows you to delay button presses, to prevent accidental rejections. Check it out.

Via the XDA app for the HTC Inspire
you have several options, but unfortunely none of them are great! =oP
this "slide" is a part of htc framework, so it can't be changed (if you wanna stay with sense)
so, when i'm with sense i prefer widget locker, it's a really great app, "solve" this problem by put a unlock screen over the original one (so, you pick out the pocket, unlock the phone/widget locker, see who is calling and slide up/down to answer/deny, basicaly you need to unlock you phone twice)
other idea is simply disable the lock screen and use widget locker to unlock the phone, the idea is:
- Disabling lockscreen you will get a incoming call with no slider, it will be replaced by that simple two buttons "answer" and "decline" (the same you got when the phone rings and you are using it)
- when lockscreen is disabled, the screen goes off, but any key turn it on again, so, you use widget locker to solve it, and let the option "over the original answer/deny call" ticked (but it won't stay over anything, because lockscreen is disabled)
you can also try http://www.appbrain.com/app/proximity-screen-off/com.itsme4ucz.screenoff
that app has a option that let your phone with screen off when it is in your pocket, using proximity sensor.

my screen goes blank.. but the call is still pending sometimes.
I'm looking for app / wgt that will flash LED (camera LED flash) on S8530 when I have missed calls or sms.
Does such app exists? Or is it possible somehow make such app for S5830?
I don't know of such an application, though it should be possible to develop one.
Where I can post this idea so someone can make such app? I think it's will be pretty popular app!
Wait? Why do you even need such a app? Usually, your phone will be placed on a flat surface or your pocket, THen the camera LED flash is useless! And also, if you say your phone is in silent mod, Don't you think the flash is going to disturb you silence!
I've noticed that sometimes when I unlock my device I have a black screen with only the "multi-task" button and the status bar visible. It will stay like this until I "lock" the phone and unlock it again. Touching the "multi-task" button makes the rest of the buttons appear but touching them still doesn't make the screen respond. I have noticed this on both stock and custom rom. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on a fix or cause?
I am using the Virgin/Bell Canada GSM version.
Thanks
ps. I've posted a pic to give people an idea of what I'm getting....as it may seem unclear in my explanation.
At first this sounded similar to a problem I had.. I installed Wave Launcher, which for some reason did not play well with my phone. I would unlock the screen and the screen would immediately go black as if it had shut off, but I could still push buttons and receive haptic feedback. I had to have someone call me and delete the app while I was in the call.. it sounds kind of similar but not really.. my first guess would be some sort of problem with an app being incompatible.

I wanted to pass this on...I was reading in the Team Kang rom that there is a "bugfix version: app navigation menu icons no longer disappear after unlocking phone". So I hope this is what relates to my problem and has been "fixed"!
I've noticed that when I receive a call, the Bluetooth incoming call app forces itself over whatever I've got on the screen. That's fine while I'm answering, and convenient for hanging up... but it ALSO covers up things like navigation which I sometimes WANT to be active while I'm on a call.
Is there any way to force the bluetooth app to go away once I've answered?
same question here..............
Same. Looking for solution to this issue. Is there any other ROM that allows to minimize/hide the ongoing call bar?

I do not have a 'fix' but a work around for outgoing calls. Bring up dial/Bluetooth screen dial your number and once connected just hit the home button. (this only works on full-screen Bluetooth). This does little for incoming calls. Yeah, I know not much of a fix, but at least you can make outgoing calls and still use your maps, etc.

There is a transparency mod that would at least show whats behind, i.e. if you were using GPS you wouldn't lose the map viewing.

I don't remember, I just remember reading about it somewhere, I think it might have been in the software section or an xposed module.
I really hope this can somehow be fixed. I cannot believe they'd design this system to be useless while on a phone call.

The vendor that I purchased my Eonon unit from sent me an updated firmware hoping to fix an issue with the volume control - while it didn't help that, i noticed that the in-call pop-up had a button that allowed you to minimize the pop-up - the screen is still locked, but it moves the pop-up out of the way of the Waze info at the bottom of the screen - I took the attached APK, copied it into the system/apps/mtcblutooth folder - i renamed the existing apk by adding .old to the end, then renamed the copied APK to exactly what the original apk was names - after reboot, I had the new pop up - it also changes the full-screen bluetooth screen slightly, I like it better - hope this helps - FYI,you'll need Root Explorer or something similar to access the root files -
I'm going to try this. It's above my pay grade but i'm going to decompile this and the other to see the differences.
I did install it and it works as designed. Problem is if you are taking a call or making a call you'll not have you navigation in the foreground to see it. So if you do already have it running, at least in waze, you can drag down from the top and press on waze to see it again. Other apps you cannot and it still locks you from opening any other apps unless they're in the navigation bar to begin with.

Hey folks,
I have this strange issue that I don't know how to solve, or how to even report to Xiaomi.
I'm using App Lock to lock few applications because of my daughter. I don't want her to mess around things she is not allowed to touch when I give her the phone.
Of course, first thing I locked is Phone and Contacts app, to prevent unplanned calls. I'm using Always On display, and whenever someone calls me, screen doesn't wake up or change at all! Phone just vibrates and rings (if it's not in the silent mode), but there is no absolutely any indication on the screen that there is an incoming call. Same thing happens even when Always On is disabled.
At first I thought this is bug inside EMUI, and that it will get fixed. 1 year passed since I have the phone, and it still isn't fixed. I tried googling and enabling all permissions on phone app to allow drawing above other apps and all those permissions, but it didn't help.
Today I tried to remove Phone app from the App Lock, and it started working. All this time issue was caused by the App Lock.
I didn't find any settings for the App Lock that will somehow loosen up the permissions, so I'm clueless at this point.
Does anyone have any idea how can I solve this, while still having Phone app locked up?
Thanks!
I don't have a fix for that issue, but instead of using Phone @ App Lock, you could Pin an App (Not sure if MIUI has this tho) and the person would have to unlock the screen to enter other apps,
or try Google's Parental Control feature perhaps...
EMUI doesn't support pinning, at least I didn't find it.
I solved it by installing another app lock application (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hideitpro.app.protect) which I use to lock only Phone app. It properly locks the access, but shows the incoming calls. Thanks for help!
