Power Switch & Lost "Quick Launch" - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my TD2 yesterday and have been playing extensively with it (and like it), but don't see the point of the power button appearing to turn off the display when pressed and then back on again when pressed again...I kept turning off the display by accident and hope there may be a way to disable this "feature" ?
Also, by unticking some option somewhere, the little "Quick Launch" thingy in the top right next to the speaker icon has gone and I don't know how to get it back...!
This is my first touchscreen, so I'm finding it quick difficult to scroll menus without actually selecting something whilst moving my finger/stylus up and down.

The powerbutton is meant to do this. The screen goes into sleep mode after a period of time and you click it to turn it on again. You will get used to it
The quick launch thingy? To the right of the speaker? The only thing to the right is the task manager. Not sure you can turn that off.
You will get used to the touchscreen and things with the phone will improve once the guys on here get to grips and customise it.

Go to settings and click on the left softbutton to see more settings.
Then click the taskmanager settings and go to the third tab.
Click the option to enable the quickmenu there.

Kaiser goes to today screen on resume from standby

If my Kaiser goes into standby, say on the mail screen, if I hit the power button or slide the slider to turn it back on, it goes back to the today screen.
Is there a way to stop this?
You probably have an application that does this, there are a lot offering this feature.
Gah,
I have kaisertweak, phweaver and HHC installed, could it be one of those?
Password
Are you password protecting your phone? If so, this can cause the Today screen to pop-up after you resume from standby, even if you are not prompted to enter a password.
nope, no password protect - I have WIMP, I *want* anyone who steals it to use it
May it's the setting 'Today timeout:' under Settings/Personal/Today/Items...
have the same problem with my touch. idea anyone? have the HHC installed, maybe it's an option of this program?
still have this problem - driving me crazy! plz help ...
bump old thread bcuz im having this issue now too...& this seems to have never been resolved.
it never used to happen, but i just got an rma w/ a a new rom 162 instead of 157 i was running on the old phone. so i'm assuming its a "feature" set in the new rom, but its annoying. also its frustrating bcuz i cant use that "camera workaround" where you cover the camera, hit the power button to sleep it, then resume...thus im back to stuck w/ a crap camera.
any thoughts/suggestions? thanks.

no, I have unchecked box of Today timeout, but still doesnt working.
When i resume Kaiser from standby (by press On/Off button) then always go to Today screen.
Probably need a soft reset for the shell to pick up the change in settings.

No, this step doesn't working. When I push On/Off button, all aplicaton (for ex. sms/mail) will be minimazed and I'll see only Totay screen
There is no solution?

Disabling start menu while on phone

Sorry if this has been discussed already, but is there a way to disable the Start Menu, and for that matter EVERYTHING but the dialpad while on the phone? I used KaiserTweak to keep my phone awake, but now everytime i go to use the dialpad while im on the phone, my ear has managed to open the start menu or some program and its very annoying .
TIA
I just knock the power button to disable the screen - then flick it on again if I need to tap keys.
I tried this but it doesnt really work. The phone seems to turn itself back on at some point during the call, and then when i go to hang up or use the keypad, i have google maps or some other app opened up. Major pain in the butt. If someone has a way to make the dialer app "always on top" or disable the start menu and/or taskbar when the dialer is open, that would be awesome for me.
by default, the screen is suppose to shut off after a few seconds while you are on a call. Have you made a reg hack to change this? or are you suing a cooked ROM? Most cooks will turn off this feature. Also, it's the first option in Kasier Tweak.
i've tried with it on and off. The problem seems to be that if you hit the wheel on the side (to adjust the volume) the screen turns back on...so if you want to adjust the volume, you have to pull the phone away from your face first, and then hit the power button again when you're done.

Crashing when opening start menu

Hey I need help. I played with a few settings in PocketToolman and after the soft reset I can't get into my start menu. Everytime I do the screen, majority fo the left side of the screen (the area where the menu would take up) goes black and I pretty much lose all functionality on the phone. The only thing i can do is press Power and go to standby but that's about it.
Anyone have this problem before?! I just got the phoen too so I don't know my way around it that well yet. It's been loaded with wm6.1.

Installed kaiser tweaks, and now tilt no charge conntected to pc

ok, so as the title says. I installed kaisertweaks a little while ago and now it does not seem to be chargin when connected to the pc.
one thing, kaisertweaks isnt realled a installed program is it? it doesnt seem to be installed on my tilt, just a user interface that interacts with the phone.
when I plug up the phone, the light goes amber but after about 2 minutes it turns off and just blinks. I dont know if it was something I checked off or not, but I do not recall checking anything off to do with the battery.
i think u did check something and i know for sure in settings there is an option that disables charging when plugged to pc.
explore the settings especially battery.
one possibility is the option within your "power" setting menu...
click the power/battery icon on the top right corner & click the "advanced" tab ...
bottom portion reads:
"when device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC"
see if the option is ticked !!!

this is the one i was referring to. thanks for exact settings option.
nope, it was unchecked. I would think it had to be something with kaiser tweaks but I didnt touch any charging settings or saw any that I know of. umm

Devicelock without return to Today screen?

tI use the standard device lock that comes with WM.
However, it goes back to Today screen everytime after lock.
Can anyone tell me how to stay at the original screen after lock?
Thanks
HTC's LongPressEndKey
go to Settings/System/HTC LongPressEndKey...
i don't know how you can make it stay at the original screen: since WM5, afaik locking has taken you back to the home screen
When I want to lock the device I just give a short press of the button on the top - that switched the device into sleep mode, the screen goes off and all the keys lock. To do that go into settings/keylock and then choose under "when device is off" "lock all buttons except power button".
One short press again on the top button then wakes it up and switches it on and it comes back to the screen you were last in when you switched it off.
Is that what you want?

It's not really locked is it? You turn the phone on and it works as normal. Similarly with the screen lock, you just push 'unlock' that appears on the screen and it works as normal. What I need is the device lock as found in settings. I just need it on an icon in my programs list would be good enough.

You can try StylusLockPro special designed for locking/unlocking while a running application is active.
