Calls answered/ignored removing from holster

martinl78 · #1 (**permalink**) 01-13-2009, 04:07 PM

Anyone have a flat phone like the HTC Touch Pro or Fuze such that when you lock the phone or turn the screen off before putting in your holster, when the phone rings the screen wakes up and just moving the phone in the holster causes enough activity on the touch screen to either answer or ignore the call?

Looking for some ideas as to how to avoid this. Was not a problem on my XV6700 since the screen was a little bit recessed...

Thanks.
Martin

You need an app like Slide2Unlock or PocketShield. They lock your screen and require you to touch the screen a particular way to unlock it.

Use this....It will make your dial pad black (which I prefer) but you have to slide it to answer or ignore. It's from the touch HD. Works great on my TP. All you have to do is install, no need to disable TF3D!

Can't find the original poster To give him thanks though.

I'm gonna try that slide to answer.=D>

I've missed 95% of my calls because the person gets hung up on when the screen wakes up, How F-ing stupid were they not to have this from the beginning.

Installed and tested while I wrote this and it works. Thank God I can finally stop having to call EVERYONE back instead of just answering the phone.

I would try your rom but I have never flashed a new rom before so I'm not sure what it curtails. Plus, honestly, My stock sprint TP is running flawlessly and has since day 1......maybe when I get up the nerve!!

But I have read great things about your rom!
