How do I stop the screen turning itself back on
Mogul is a cool phone and I found many "tweaks" to make it work better. But one thing that still bugs the crap out of me is the thing will turn the screen back on for no reason. Just sitting there with a good signal, no incoming calls or messages, all apps closed. It only really bothers me cause it dialed the last number automatically several times while on my hip. It turns itself on then somewhere I bump the buttons to make it dial. Scarry!
How do I stop this? Registry setting? |
Re: How do I stop the screen turning itself back on
I've actually been searching for an answer to this too. It's mostly annoying when I have it plugged in to the USB, or AC adapter, because it won't turn the screen back off by itself. It will just sit there, on for hours. It's probably always done this, but I just recently noticed it. I think it either has to do w/ active sync or pocket outlook checking the mail. I'd love if I could figure out a way to keep active sync from automatically opening *ever*, even on boot.

Still never found the answer for this but it does seem to do it when going out and back in to a signal. Caught it on my kitchen counter where I get a crappy signal.

Re: How do I stop the screen turning itself back on
One thing I have noticed on this windows mobile device is that there is a setting to lock all buttons when the power is off except for the power button. I found myself bumping the phone while on my hip and was always butt dialing. This might be totally off the mark but it's worth a shot. To turn it off go to start > settings> system > key lock.

As for accidentally dialing someone after the screen turns on: You can avoid that issue by locking your phone before you put it in your pocket. Even if you manage to turn it on somehow you won't be able to dial out until you unlock it. The lock button is under the Personal tab of the Settings screen, but there are several ways to map it to your Today screen.

Found it. If that's it then I feel stupid. Thanks Dave!
