Does anyone know of a screen locking program?
I have posted before looking for a solution to the problem of button and screen lock being disabled when I receive a call/message and the phone doing all manner of things in my pocket like connecting to GPRS when the lock is off.
What I am after now is just a program that will lock the screen until I tell it not to, in an attempt to stop this happening. Something that will not be overridden by receiving a message or call, because this is totally doing my head in now.
Does anyone know of one?
Thanks
Honestly, does this issue not affect anyone else?
use MortSaver, free download in www.sto-helit.de. You can chose to use its phone function (unlcok call and screen with incoming call), or disable the function, so screen+buttons keep being locked.
I have big problems when i speak in the phone, almost everytime i hang up a few apps have started. Is there a way to deactivate the touchscreen or something when a call is active?
Simply press the power button to deactivate the screen.
Am I missing something?
I always had this till I realized you could turn the screen off during a call. I have a few programs installed, Inesoft being one of them. I believe it's that which auto turns my screen off when I accept an incoming call.

Thanks, that sounds great. I will check it out!
XperiaTweek has an option for this too afaik
please correct me if I am wrong, but i think the Xperia default setting is that the screen IS turned off during a call!
Xperia Tweak offered the option to switch this off and leave the screen on

Think you're right
Do you know the registry key behind this?
if someone can make a program to relate the light sensor with the screen off, coz when am using my BT headset i dont want my screen to be off and when i dont use it i want the screen to be off, so if has a light sensor we should utilize it saying "during a call when u see light dont go off coz it means he is using BT headset otherwise screen is off" or if we can know from BT activity, again a program saying if ur using phone then off is ur using BT Headset then dont off"

Wouldn't it be easier to tell x1 not to screen off when using a Bluetooth headset? or when wired headset is plugged in? But you idea sounds cool too.
it would only the application that does that requires a restart switching between options which makes it a bit inconvenient

I mean X1 does it automatically with my idea. ??
Wouldn't it be easier to to write a program for X1 to know when there's a bluetooth/wired headset connection then mess with the light sensor?
But either would be cool....if possible.
My X1's screen is switched ON by default when I get a call. Its pretty annoying actually.
FURTHERMORE, I've got a password lock on it. So if I speak longer than 5 mins (thats the limit I put for the password), then when I end the call, it asks me for the unlock code before I can see the today screen again!!
Can someone tell me if there's a solution to this??
Thanks
I was wondering if there is a way to disable phone's screen when voice dialing number or when answering phone call.
I've an BT headset on my motorcycle helmet, the phone is in my pocket while riding ; the problem is that the screen is activated with every incoming/outgoing phone call and the screen is inadvertently pressed executing silly actions.
I'm looking for a solution without having to install a permanent screen lock as in all day life, having to switch on the screen and then having to unlock it every time I want to use my phone is boring.
So has anybody a solution ‘cause I’ve written a beautiful note during my last hand ree call.
Hi,
In S2U2 app there is option in power settings where phone locks up at talking when using BT.
I guess that it works for you.

Just read TICST User Guide, I seems to exactly match with my needs with its 'switch off for BT' feature.
I'll give try it shortly.
Thanks
Greetings all,
when i´m underway in my car, or i´m running (i listen to music with my Jaybird Bluetooth headset) everytime i receive a call and after the call has ended, the phone does not go back to the lock screen, but the screen remains unlocked.
Since in both cases i have my phone in my pocket, the touch screen reacts on the movement and the touch of my thigh through the trousers and the phone starts pocket dialing or starts apps or even begins to "answer" to emails and stuff.
I have tried to set up the second pattern lockscreen, which can be set up in settings->security, but to no avail, this second pattern lockscreen does not appear after a call has ended.
Does anyone have a hint how i might set up my phone so it locks the screen right away after a call has ended?
I´m using a sense build (sense 2.1) and could not yet find anything that could help me out here, so it´s your turn now
Many thanks in advance for your help (and yes i do know where the thanks button is )

Hi,
I have a problem that my screen doesn't automatically turn off after a phone call. When my phone is locked and I receive a call it should automatically lock again after the call has finished, right? I think it worked like that in the beginning but I'm not completely sure. Can somebody tell me if it's supposed to work like that and if I can change it or fix it if it's a bug? Thanks
This app can help you.
