Driver / dll responsible for detecting stylus removal?

Does anyone know what dll is responsible for detecting when we remove the stylus from the holder?

I ask because I believe I have a hardware issue with my stylus detection and my touch pro 2 will think that I am removing my stylus when I havent. It's actually a very annoying problem and I'd like to eliminate this problem by simply removing stylus detection altogether.

What does it do when it thinks you have removed the stylus? Does it just light up the buttons? I'm not sure if there is a driver for it. I know the nk.exe (kernel) controls it, but you won't be able to leave that out.

Whenever I put down my phone, the buttons light up, screen lights up, goes to the lockscreen, unlocks said lockscreen, and I'm looking at my homepage. You can imagine when I put my phone in my pocket, I end up pocket dialing people.

I'm pretty sure there is a reg edit for it. I've never messed with it, but I'll post back if I can dig something up from my 'box of goodies'. lol (My folder of cabs, and edits.)

There have been some locking apps made to control or mod the stylus out sensor. I remember Stylus Lock and Dredsensor from my Diamond. The creators of those apps would know or maybe you could try using one of those apps to disable it. TouchLockPro might do it also.

No avail. I did find this though, it may be of some help.. Kind of goes along with what horndoc says. [APP][Updated 17-04-09] Stylus(BattC)lock (v1.7) - xda-developers Good luck.
