PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Has anyone encounter this issue..

Example.

If I have core player running ...and switch over the my text messages (or any other program). Then I slide open my keyboard, it will revert back to core player.


UPDATE..FIXED

Reason:
I replaced (copied over the file) HTCvolumeControl.dll because the rom i was using had a differnt one.

Resolution:
I deleted it HTCvolumeControl.dll (rom restored the file) and i'm back to normal.

I'm assuming it was a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll ... or that particular version didn't work well with the rom.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

No, i haven't received that problem! Maybe there a bug in core player. Try media player instead of core player and see what happens.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Are you using stock ROM or custom ROM?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Whenever I click on text messages and then slide open my keyboard and start typing, it goes to TF3D and then the dialer after it.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

so, if you goto text tab from tf and open kb and start reply this happens? im trying to duplicate the problem.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

this is a know issue with the 20xxx sys roms or so i have been reading what rom are you on

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

To duplicate this probem: (at least for me)

1. Call your HTC using a landline or another cell phone.
2. Answer the call and hang up.
3. Now open your htc to landscape
4. Dialer should show up all the time. Sucks.

The only way I can temporarily fix the landscape issue is either do a soft reboot or kill and restart cprog.exe.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Are u using any custom taskbar icons by any chance?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I am and I have the same problem

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Yup, I've got the same problem. Slide out the keyboard and the HTC control page or contacts always shows up. Really frustrating. Soft reset is the only thing that seems to make it go away, and it keeps coming back. Anyone know of a fix for this on the Sprint Touch Pro?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Yea, if I go to the text tab, click on a text and then open the kb, the text box shows up, i start typing, a few letters enter in the reply box, then the dialer comes up and the rest of the letters I typed start searching for contacts. If I X out of that, the landscape manilla is behind it, and not my text.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

This does not happen in Juggalo's custom ROM v0.02.07B (or up, most likely.) I don't know what ROM you are using but I suggest flashing Juggalo's ROM.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

if I terminate cprog.exe .... the problem is gone. BUT cprog.exe is no longer there... what does it do?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Ah, sorry forgot to mention, I am on the stock rom from sprint. I dont want to flash to a different rom right now, so if someone has any suggestions, Id love to hear them.

Mxl, I'll try the cprog thing.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

i have same problem with sprint stock and i did install new taskbar icons...i think this is the problem somehow

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Im having the same EXACT problem. and i did install the Icons on my taskbar.. Its pretty annoying. I hope there is a fix where i can keep the icons

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I already removed the new icons because of this exact problem. And it appears to be tied to the orientation sensor, not the keyboard. Use of the phone seems to trigger the issue (a soft reset fixes it until the phone is used again). For anyone experiencing the issue, open opera and then turn the device (to or from landscape) and boom- dialer (or whatever else it has decided to trigger).

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

mine does that too...

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

his happens to me alot... i turned off my touch flo, and it didnt seem to happen as much...

i dont know how to fix it now... but i know if you hit the messaging button on your keypad wen open...(to the right of the TXT button), it will take you directly back to the message that you were typing.... its not a fix... but it wont slow you down as much as it normally does...

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I never had touch flo on... and it happened everyday.

Lets try to narrow it down to some common denominators.
We know it happens to sprint's rom, Juggalos Rom, JUGGS 4.0 rom.

I know for if I KILL cprog.exe the problem is gone. Do all roms use the same cprog.exe?
So it could be that.

Some report it seems to occur after a phone call.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Cprog.exe is important and has to be restarted.

Anyway, I cooked my own rom and I can say the problem has gone away. Yah.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

why do you think it has gone away?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

this is one bug that drives me CRAZY .... there was a bug i experienced like this on my touch .. and they stated that it was related to spb programs, but that doesnt seem to be the issue now...

Phone app randomly opens
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock from 1 to 2

mine is currently set to 0 on my touch pro

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I'm running Sprint Rom and I have the exact same problem. Only way for me to get around it was to reboot phone. Any fixes yet?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

i actually just returned my last tp for a similar reason

my last tp was built on 10/26 running stock rom and i had installed total commander, pic mail fix,internet sharing cab and nfl mobile....what it would do is when i slid out the keyborad it would freeze on the portrait today screen highlight phone in the bottom left corner and the switch to landscape with the dialer open everytime

it would also have trouble running opera...i would have to click on web search 2 or 3 times and have it load each time before it finally opened...it aslo wouldn't stay open if i switched to another program it would close out in the background

my newest tp was born on nov 6th and no problems so far

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I did this hack (before) I started notcing the problem:

Disable Keyboard auto pop up when entering an app with a text field
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=dword:00000001

I set it to 1 and sometime around there I started noticing the keyboard issue where it would start calling up contacts....

I am going to change this back to 0 and see if that helps.

Did anyone else do this hack and then start to notice the problem??

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

this is the problem I was refering to above. Did you do that hack as well? If so, thy setting it back to 0 and see if that helps...

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

I did a soft reset, the problem goes away.
If I make a phone call from the pro, the problem does not reoccur.
If I receive an incoming call, I talk for a lil bit, I hit the unhook key (hard key) twice to hang up and close the dialer, the problem is back.

From that point forward, anytime I slide the keyboard, the running application will change (sometimes showing the dialer, sometimes the landscape touchflo 3d screen, or something else but never stay on the screen its supposed too). Also as discussed above, simply using an application like Opera, that switches from landscape to portrait mode based on phone orientation, also causes the same problem. So it doesn't seem specifically tied to sliding the keyboard, but instead just switching from to portrait/landscape in general.

I am running the stock sprint rom.
I do not have the hack that matthew23 uses HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip ->"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=1, but tried it with no affect
I tried setting HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock from 0 to 1 to 2, but it has no affect

I do have custom taskbar icons.
I have installed GoodThings2Life's tweak only cleanup.
But I've installed a bunch of other programs and reg hacks, so it could be any number of variables.

Anyone have a simpler setup that has this same problem? What additional programs and hacks did you install? If you have a shorter list, it may be easier to find the specific culprit.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

i think it has to do with the taskbar icons then....i installed them and the hack above also and started noticing the problem....

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

This has already been figured out in the Custom Icons thread. Search for it in the TouchPro forums. Its always an active thread. It is bcuz of the custom icons. Specifically the speaker/volume icons. If u remove those icons and go back to stock the problem will go away. They are looking for a solution but for right now uninstalling the speaker/volume icons is the only option.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

i dont have any cutom icons and i still got the problem, and all i really have installed is S2U2, and total commander

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

This has nothing to do with icons it has happened to me with a stock sprint rom with now taskbar, task manager, or theme programs installed.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

i did not have the issue prior to installing the custom icons, only after install did it crop up

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Thanks TreyBeno!

I replaced my windows/HTCVolumeControl.dll with my original backup, and the issue is resolved with the keyboard/landscape mode.

The only problem is that the original dll has a different interface for the system and ringer volume controls and the fonts are super tiny. Hopefully, someone will fix this soon, but I'll take the small fonts over the keyboard/landscape issue.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Have you made any .dll changes to your phone with total comander?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Thats weird. it should have returned ur icons and interface to normal. My fonts are normal and standad. Its one interface with two tabs. Not the version where u have to push an arrow to switch between the system and ringer volumes

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

also been having this issue, but i just ignored it hoping there would be a fix.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

So this happens on custom roms too? I have the original sprint rom, and get VERY anoyed with it while trying to text, then slide it open and in the middle of my text it goes to phone mode. :( We really need a good fix.

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

arghhh same for me... but when I had no additionnal programs it never happened...

Who is the guilty one....? Or what option on them?

Re: PROBLEM: Sliding keyboard open ... launches previous background app
 

Wow... from the thread "Is Your Phone App Popping Up?" you can download spb_phoneapp_fix.zip
After installing it, no more problems!!! For now.
