1.47 update and No-Lock users.. question

Hi, I'm new to the forum.

I use the no-lock app, which allows me to push the volume button to turn on the screen. Since installing the 1.47 HTC update, now when I push the volume button to turn on the screen, it makes the annoying "tink" volume-indicator sound. It didn't do that before.
I really don't want an announcement that I'm turning on my cell phone. Has this happened to you other No-lock, upgraded users?

Thanks,
I'm enjoying reading all the tips on this forum.

Ditto. Volume changes seem to be going through as far as I can tell, rather than being intercepted fully by No Lock. So if I press down, the ringer volume decreases. Vice versa for the volume up button. I normally only use the up button and keep my ringer maxed out, so I might be wrong as I don't have my phone sitting in front of me.

Hrm, something I just thought of...perhaps a No Lock uninstall and reinstall might have an effect to reestablish proper interception of button presses? Can't try now, but maybe someone else could?

Try using the volume "down" to turn your phone on. If the volume is already down, it won't make a sound. (It is still irritating that the volume now registers immediately, when it didn't use to.)

I don't think the "new" volume button pings are associated with the No Lock App. When I did a force stop to No Lock the volume button pings were still present. I checked the Sound & Display settings and the Audible Touch Tones was off as I had set it. I guess it's a new and improved feature from the update but I'm not sweating over it.
