One more thing is: How do you set the Backlight to be on while on a call?

One way that will fix all your problems is to use PocketShield to lock your phone but it's not free.

PS locks the phone, gives a super slide to answer/ignore screen & allows you to switch from the HTC dialer to a black skinned version of the WinMo dialer. That dialer will stay lit during a call & ring two rings faster on an incominng call.

i Personally like the SunScape unlock its diffrent and the newer versions are highly costumizable because its open source. And its free.:headbang:

Thanks for the replies John and MoonZ...I think I took care of the locking scenario by setting the Hard End Button Press to lock the device...Right now I just need a way to keep the backlight ON while on a call....

*Bump* seeing a lot of activity now and so hoping someone would answer my above question....please....

Re: Screen lock to prevent accidental dialing?
 

I think is you go to setting>>>system>>>backlight>>> and disable the box "Turn off back light if device is not used for (# minutes)" your backlight will continue to be on until you manually turn it off.

That won't affect the screen turning off during a call. Switching to the Windows dialer skin instead of the HTC dialer keeps it on however.

Thanks Johna and how/where do I get this Windows Dialer Skin..sorry to sound so noobish...(well, I am one):)

Re: Screen lock to prevent accidental dialing?
 

This seems to work good and you do not have to switch dialers:

Thank you...will try and get back!!!

Re: Screen lock to prevent accidental dialing?
 

yea, that cab sounds like the answer.

I use the WinMo dialer myself, but I use it to totally eliminate the incoming call ring lag (it rinngs a LOT faster than the HTC dialer)
