Default Diamond2 TouchFlo always returning to Home screen

Hi,

Has anyone noticed that the Diamond2 always returns to the home screen after comming out of lock mode or standby?

For example, i could be listening to music, after 5 mins of me not using the screen, the phone would lock. On entering the PIN, the TouchFlo retuns to the home screen, instead of my music app. Same goes for any other app on the TouchFlo. My previous Touch Pro came back to the last opened app on TouchFlo.

Not a huge problem but would be good if there was a tweak to stop this behaviour.

I also experienced a problem with switching screens when turning the device back on. Uninstalling TouchLockPro solved the problem for me...

@Brempie

I took your comment about uninstalling TouchLockPro. I didnt have that program installed but i took the PIN lock off my phone temporarily, and hey presto, phone works as it should!

So now we know what causes the problem, hopefully HTC will have a fix for it....eventually.

I'll live with the bug for the moment, i prefer a phone which is PIN locked.

Cheers,

M

I have never had this happen to me. I also installed throttle lock and it always goes back to where it was when I unlock. I just uninstalled throttle lock and did a soft reset to test and make sure it never reverted back to the home screen. Nothing.

No matter what program I am in it wakes up to that same spot. I don't know what the registry hack for this is but there probably is one.

Could you possibly try this? Install ThrotleLock v0.6 and then see if it will work. If it wakes back up to the same screen and not TF3D uninstall it and see if it goes back to TF3D or not.

*warming up this thread*

So, has anyone yet found a solution for this?

It's annoying for me as i have set the device to go to standby after 2 minutes of inactivity when on battery. When i listen to music with the musicplayer in foreground, or when i write an email and someone interrupts me, i put the device in standby by myself or it does automatically after the defined time.

In 95-99%, when i turn back on the device, it has returned back to the touchflo home screen. Very rarely, and it could not yet find any system, the device wakes up exactly where i left it. This is, what it should do everytime but sadly it doesn't.

I'm using the Stock-ROM, activated PIN-Lock of my SIM, having a (WinMobile default) device Lock (4-digits) set to activate after 24 hours (this way it does not activate itself during normal usage, unless i long-press the end-call-button), using 2ndToday with SPB Diary.

It gets more annoying for me every day, because especially during working time i frequently turn the device on and off. Reading RSS-news, turning the device off for an incoming call, turning the device on just to get welcomed by the home-screen instead of staying on the news i previously read isn't that comfortable
Having to open the taskmanager and reactivating the program means at least two more clicks everytime i use the device... so - any solution?

edit: I think i tracked down the source of the problem, watch in this thread:
