You can hit the phone button and it takes you back to the dialpad although (I'm sure you figured this out...)... I did this for a while trying to figure out the app that was causing the issue...

Done and acting fine. I have actually hard resetted a number of times since getting the phone the other day. And have applyed a number of reg tweaks to it at different times......... none of them have given me the problem that you speak of

ACTUALLY, My TP2 is way more stable than my old TP1......... WAY MORE.

God I dislike the TP! more and more now that I have the TP2!

What a different phone. It shouldn't be called the Touch Pro 2....... it's kind of insulting...

I have a Sprint TP2 and was having the same issue, which was most annoying when in a call and trying to get access to the keypad or "End Call" button...once the proximity sensor had shut off the screen, I could get the screen to come back, but the keypad/phone screen would only appear for a second and then disappear and I was back at the home screen while the call continued.

I had the device lock enabled so I tried changing the setting to 0 minutes as suggested. This made the screen work correctly with applications, but the in-call screen was still disappearing. Turning off the device lock completely solved the problem. I wanted to mention this since I haven't installed anything other than Google Maps, so it seems to be solely a TF3D issue.

The frustrating part is changing the setting to 0 minutes works, but I want to keep the device lock feature enabled.

I don't know how but installing the Rhodium Setting Tools, turning off the light sensor, and resetting the phone appears to work. Unfortunately, it does not work consistently.

has anyone else had issues with the screen going dark and returning to the homepage during a call? i have not found a way to prevent this from happening...yet.

so I'm guessing that the Rhodium settings tool ultimately did not work for you?

jimmyz...no

did it work for you? if so, can you tell me which phone settings you turned on/off to keep the light on?

no it did not work for me as well- what is so strange about home page default is that is does not happen all the time- maybe its worth while to send an email to HTC support to ask about this behavior within touchflo?

i dont have this problem on my sprint tp2.. whatever is on the screen (open tab or program) stays there until i close it.
