Yes, you may try PSSHUTXP or SVMPOWERMGR. I am currently using SVMPOWERMGR which provides 4 shortcuts in Windows Start program and one of them is screen off.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ZuinigeRijder:
You can use TouchLockPro and configure CommandCallEnded = !SUSPEND.

You can also couple a (hardware) key shortcut to TouchLockAction SUSPEND

I've searched everywhere and can't find anything like this: I want a app that is completely blank and totally configurable through XML file so that I can place MY background pic and MY icons where I want on the screen to launch whatever app I want... It will look and act much like rlToday but NOT be a today plugin, rather a program so I can assign it to a button or whatever I want to launch it.

Is this a good idea/request?? Can it be done easy??

I want to know if theres a way to totally disable the htc diamond keypad light, when an sms is received, during a missed call has been registered on my device and while it is charging... because i really dont like that.

I have seen this registry key: HKCU/ControlPanel/Notification/

There are some keys that start with {A877... the value there are in minutes, so if tehere is a 5 the ligth will be turned on for 5 min, 60 for an hour...

I want to disable it 4 ever... can u help me?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] haixoai:
I haven't really tried it so I'm not sure it works, but I know there's an option to turn it off under the Settings tab > Sounds > Advanced > Notifications.

I'm assuming if you uncheck the "Flash light for" option for each event you want (or don't want) under the dropdown menu, it'll take away the effect. Lol, I guess I like shiny things though, so I can't understand why anyone would want to turn it off.

i used to work with tmobile so i can tell you that you'll have to call them. ask to speak to tech support and explain your situation. then ask them to bump you off the network and put you onto a different network line. this is a common problem for tmobile prepaid customers who unlock their phones due to the ability to jump between singals and as prepaid customer the signals are coded a certain way that randomly screws up with unlocked phones from interfering signals that will boot your from the network. its a lot of technical crap that i don't understand having only been a sales associate but they'll fix it.

Is there a way to enable/disable the vibrate on long press?

On my last wipe, something must have gone wrong with the wipe or flash to JF 1.51 ADP, because now the phone will not vibrate on long press. I've scoured the GUI (that is, the settings accessible via the settings menu, not hidden tags only accessed through shell) settings, but I'm either not looking in the correct spot or its not in the settings.

The phone will vibrate on alerts, so it shouldn't be a hardware issue, just software. I don't care to do another wipe if at all possible, so if your only suggestion is a wipe, please don't answer.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
Download Spare Parts from the market. Then activate vibrate on selection. It might not sound like it, but that's what you're looking for I'm pretty sure. Using it now. It only vibrates if you hold something down, not after every keypress.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordanjay29:
I'm an idiot. Spare Parts is the one thing I forgot to reset when I wiped.

I bought my phone new back in late December and only after about a month of use got the oil spot problem and my volume button would stick and bring up the volume control over and over basically making the phone unusable. So I got and RMA from HTC repair, sent it in, got it back about a week later but the volume button problem was still there. So I sent it in again and they finally fixed it. Here it is 5 months later, same exact problems come back "phone is still in warranty until 01/2010" so I call RMA center, tell them to submit an RMA with the SAME exact issues as before on my account and I send it in but this time they respond with this:

Diagnosis:

Newton ring (oil spot) indicates excessive pressure to LCD

Button failure

Suggested Repair:

Replace LCD and refurbish

Total Repair Price:

$202.57

What gives?! I call them and they say under the phones new circumstances the warranty is NOT covered so there is the charge. My question is how can they repair it the first time at NO cost under warranty and this time say it was excesive use and given that it has the EXACT same problems as before want to charge me for repair?? Am I justified in calling them and complaining?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] quicksite:
Hello, I know this is a WAY LONG PAST RELEVANT ITEM for you, but I found your thread in my search. I have had similar problems before with HTC AMERICA, but this time they have gone too far, so I am bumping your thread for this occasion, and simply directing you to my current thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002951

I would just like to ask if you would read Post #1 and tell me if the experience overall sounds similar in tone and attitude to the one you describe.

It disgusts me to read of your situation. The one that I am describing currently is for my HTC DESIRE, under warranty, warranty not being honored.

However, YOUR SCENARIO, and i realize it's now 2 years old, sounds more like my FIRST encounter with HTC AMERICA with a brand new HTC HERO, with a wifi receptor problem. (I still had my HTC /T-Mobile Wing and it was picking up WIFI signals perfectly everywhere, in my home, on the street, in cafes... but the new Hero -- no.)

HTC-AMerica diagnosed that indeed it was broken. The phone was just weeks old so I asked "don't i just get a new phone?" They said NO, WE HAVE TO REPAIR IT. So i was out of a phone for several weeks. Then it comes back. No charge, that's great. But same problem. Whatever they did, didn't fix it. I called and said this is ridiculous, they said "send it back, here is new RMA"...

I said "You're kidding right? A brand new phone, you repair it, it didn't fix it, same problem, and you want me to REPAIR IT AGAIN? Isn't it time you just give me a new phone?"

"No, per policy blah blah, we must repair it".... I told them they were nuts, and my warranty was useless, what is their problem, and I was now forced to use my SECONDARY INSURANCE with "SquareTrade.com" ---- They were of course like "whatever"

And SquareTrade paid out the full price of the phone within 48 hours.

That was with the HTC Hero.

I'd almost forgotten about that. because i then bought the HTC Desire, a phenomenal phone... til i had this recent warranty problem.

Anyway, I'm bumping your thread because i intend to make an issue out of this. Any help on your end would be great. (IE case # ect.... but, i total;ly understand you have long since moved on, so, don;t worry about it. Just bumping this is helpful. thank you.

With the abilty to switch between touch flow and home now, would it be possible to change the launcher icon for the app drawer? IE the look to make it look like Oreo instead of a modified Hero tab? Thanks!!!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Yes, just find a theme with the app draw you want. Extract the Launcher.apk from the zip and adb push it to where it is in your current build.

adb push Launcher.apk /data/app_s

or paste it in the root of your sdcard and type in terminal:

su

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

rm -r /data/app_s/Launcher.apk

rm -r /data/app_s/Launcher.odex

Well there's a couple of things i'd do change SPL like others posted. "I think you using the mentioned SPL"

Change ROM see if still persists.

If still an issue phone your carrier and ask if any problems with your account "without mentioning anythin bout cooked ROM" ;)

I had it happen once when 7 messages where sent but just hard-reset and all was fine.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
I think that it is a mixture of carrier problem , connection problem and inherently the way SMS works. My phone does it , my wife's iPhone does it and my son's LG Vu does it. Not all the time but enough.

In any case it has nothing to do with development of new roms, there is a software forum and a general question forum. Just because you don't get an answer one place does not mean, post it in every section until you get the answer you want.

The rom development section has been getting very cluttered lately with questions about things that have nothing to do with developing custom roms, just because people want an answer and want it NOW !.

doesnt it get annoying at some point?

and i didnt post in EVERY section. ive only made this thread in this section and i asked in the pdaultimates rom thread. how would i know the double text problem isn't related to custom roms/radio/spls? thats why im trying to find out what is causing it and how to fix it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] joshkoss:
Regarding this dude,

Your gonna want to post in the thread that your using for the rom. IE if your using PDA Ultimate rom post this issue in his thread. Not open a new thread in the rom dev section..

Sometimes i am able to click a link and load in the same tab

but most of the time when double clicking a link it just Zoom in

And I end up having to right click and open in new tab

Someone explain the correct metod to click on a link in a Newsarticle

so it open in the same page without opening it in a new tab and avoid mixing up the zooming in and go to the page without new tab.

thanks
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
You're talking about Opera right? Double-clicking in Opera is the zoom functionality. You need only single-click a link for it to open. By default, links should open in the same tab within Opera. Have you changed any settings? Which ROM are you using?
[G1 General] mpeezay:
according to this gizmodo android review, it seem's so...

http://gizmodo.com/5318860/htc-hero-review-ambitious-but-tragically-flawed

"Guts and Miscellany

Powering Hero is 528MHz processor virtually identical to one inside the Dream and Magic, and it has the same 288MB of RAM as the latter. Frankly, it's not enough. At least not with HTC's custom user interface, more than a couple of widgets and an application running. Killing all of the widgets—especially the Twitter one—does help. But moments where the phone does nothing for a second or three after you've tapped, flicked or swiped happens far too often. Which is to say, a lot, especially after it's been on for more than an hour. Fast, totally smooth transition animations are infrequent enough I'm pleasantly surprised when a desktop screen immediately and gracefully slides to the left or right without a hiccup. It's frustrating"

sounds like it doesn't that much better than hero on our g1's, which is sad for such a lovely gui.

tho I all I would really want from rosie/sense/touchflo is people/albums twitter and facebook integration as well as the twitter widget.

to really i'd love to have all the damned widgets, even the stock widget that no one here seem's to want, onyl if they could integrate it w/ google finance for the most real-time pricing available for free.

im running off on tangents tho..so i will stop..
[G1 General] helfrez:
Don't put to much stock in the engadget or gizmodo reviews. It's hard to get a earnest review of anything other than Iphones from either site. Some people in the gizmodo thread state that there is a clas4 card included with the kits, and swapping it out for a class6 makes the sluggishness go away. Apparently hero uses a swap file aswell. It would be interested to see them retest with a class6 card. Head off to some of the other sites and you will find reviews that explicitely say they DID NOT notice the sluggishness.

It's also noted that alot of the widgets only update when the phone wakes, some of that bogging could simply be the edge connections choking truing to update all the widgets, of which im sure they loaded every possible page full.

It would be very interesting to see if the class4 sd card really is the bottleneck. If it is, i would like these guys to eat crow for lunch. Even HTC is puzzled by the fact that some people report no issues, while the highest profile sites report its just abysmal. I'm getting one regardless, when the NA 3g band version is available, even if it was sluggish, one cyanogen and the gang get ahold of it, it's a wrap.
[G1 General] coolbho3000:
I believe Android itself is part of the bottleneck - the Dalvik VM makes everything unbearably slow. Hopefully HTC will make use of the NDK.
[G1 General] Untouchab1e:
There are several comments from actual Hero users who say that a lot of the sluggish behaviour was gone when they didn't use the Class 4 MicroSD card and used Class 6 instead, which indicates a problem with the IO as Android uses the mem card for its swap file. That means its not the processing time when all these apps are running concurrently afterall. Food for thought..
[G1 General] xxvtcxx:
I've read both the gizmodo and engadget reviews, as mentioned before, both sites do have a bias towards the iPhone, but I found that engadget's review of the hero to be quite objective in their testing. As for the gizmodo review, they seemed ready to hate it as soon as they didn't see an apple logo on it.
[G1 General] cyanogen:
I think Hero is just poorly coded. Have you watched the logs on this thing? Providers in Providers, hundreds of BroadcastReceivers, its crazy. To do anything on the device 100 different apps wake up.
[G1 General] Breakthecycle2:
My G1 running Hero is NOT slow at all:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxLZOhUA3R0
[G1 General] jubeh:
I don't know if you guys remember, but the original release of android was also plagued with sluggishness when it first came out. Browser scrolling was choppy, using browser and then going back home would cause a re-load (on a stock system). The hero is not much more different than then Dream in terms of hardware (the qualcomm processor uses the same ARM core, and I believe the only change between it and the Dream's is improvements in the radio), much more like the sapphire. I was too disapointed when I saw videos of the Hero device and saw slowdowns and sluggishness, and like Cyanogen pointed out, HTC basically built Touch-flo on top of running android processes without caring for either disabling or reusing them. The size of HTC's framework is about as big as the original Android system (considering how much of android they've taken off too).

I also have to wonder, though what it is people are perceiving as "speed". If, like Breakthecycle2, you're reffering to speed as just flicking the home screen from side to side without slowdown, then you're just considering the UI aspect of the whole system (and only the home app at that).

A system that runs lean, boots fast, keeps all systems shut until they're required, and is able to start them quickly on demand is really a fast system, and android sucks at that. Android is much like vista, it likes keeping the memory full and all services ready to make up for the shortcomings of running a VM, but the Dream is not a desktop computer, nor does it come equiped with 4 gb or ram where you can get away with doing just so.

I don't believe it's gonna change anymore either, programmers, companies, nobody really cares about optimizing runtimes anymore. We've been spoiled with increased capacities, speeds, etc that we're completely comforatble with wasting resources to use shortcut instead of solving challenges programatically (ie, loading up bitmaps instead of creating and using vectors, just because we have the storage for them and it's easier), and companies will settle with "good enough" or "fast enough" just to make a profit, after all, if it's selling, why spend money on improving it?

I personally use ALOL net on my Hand device and also Desktop. Able to Sync with Desktop is Great thing which actually makes Device/desktop sync no more really necessary!!!

ALOL seams a Large ISP in Brazil. How secure it is?? Difficult to say!! But it seems they are very customer focused and even for free service you get always prompt Service. Some one here in the forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=372453) also offering Push mail service for reasonable price!!!

Well if you consider Security then you have to go with large known hosted exchange provider (only because they have reputation to lose) but then you will have to pay 6.95-13$ per month
