A couple of newbie questions...

[mikebeecham]

Sorry guys if these have been asked already, but here we go (I should mention that I couldn't quite find these on google searches).

1) When on a call (incoming and outgoing) the screen goes black. I cant seem to figure out how to bring the screen back to hit the "end call" button. How do I do this?

2) Is there any way to set one of the "touchFLO" wallpapers to the lock screen? I can apply an image from my albums, but not one of the wallpaper options?

3) Does anyone seem to have problems with Hero autofinding your wireless network SOMETIMES? I should point out that my Hero is now rooted and I used the MTC 2.2 rom.

Thanks for now

What did you type into google?

1) If you push the trackball button during a call, you'll wake the screen up without disconnecting

2) I don't know the answer to this one, I suspect it's not possible. I do recall seeing a discussion on these forums somewhere with that very question, so if you search for and find it there may be a definitive answer there

3) Do you mean a wifi home or office network or your phone carrier's data network (3g etc)? For both, I've had next to no problems. I do occasionally have to force the wifi to attempt to reconnect, but I think that's always been due to a problem connecting because I've forgotten to switch between a static IP at home, and a dynamically assigned IP everywhere else.

As your device is rooted, look in (I think) /system/customization/resource and you'll find the SenseUI wallpapers. The matching lockscreens are hidden away somewhere else, but I can't remember the path right now.

Hi slug...

Yeah I found them fine thanks...however, I'm not sure how I can apply them even in root. There is still no option in the GUI to apply them as a lock screen, and when accessing them through Astro or Linda, there is no option to set them as lock screen?

Copy them into a folder on /sdcard and apply them that way.

AFAIK the HTC-supplied screens are ordinarily only usable as part of a "scene". I keep meaning to dump the latest ROM to hdd and have a poke about to find how the XML is structured to do it but haven't found the time yet.
