Wanted to do a follow up on my experience with the Touch In Call Screen Tweak (TICST) app.
I posted a few pages ago about how I wanted a way to disable it, and how disabling it is virtually impossible since it's cooked into the ROM.
I opened up Resco Explorer, tried to delete the file: "Touch_InCall_Screen_Tweak.exe", but of course it comes back.
I then tried to rename it, and once again, the original file is recreated with the original name (the renamed file is still there too btw)
I then tried to move the file elsewhere, but was warned that this too is not possible since it must reside within the /Windows folder as dictated by the ROM itself.
Finally, I had an epiphany.
I opened up Notepad, created a dummy file called (you guessed it) "Touch_InCall_Screen_Tweak.exe" which is really a txt file with an .exe extension, and then dumped that into the /Windows folder.
This in effect replaced the original file, and now TICST no longer runs, it is disabled!
The reason I didn't like it is because I do use my phone in bed at times, and moving side to side causes the screen to turn on, off, speaker to come on/off (although I can disable this feature), and I just plain don't like an app consuming a constant ~ 5% of my CPU whenever i want to make a simple phone call...why unneccessarily kill the battery THAT MUCH!
Well, now I'm finally satisfied with this ROM.
Call comes in, screen stays on unless I hit the power button. I can turn my screen back on (and it stays on) once again after hitting the power button or the center D-pad.
I don't need an app controlling this functionality for me, especially not one that comes with extraneous CPU usage, battery drainage, and introduces temperamental & capricious behavior of the screen.
