Hi guys!
Is it possible to lock the Jamin automatically when the device is turned off with thw main power button?
I'd like to lock the Jamin because when I put it on my pocket I don't want the device buttons active when a call or message cames up...
The lock features it what I'm loocking for but I'd like to find a method to lock it up automatically...
Ah, if only the forum had a search functionality... 8)

whooops...
many thanks! :wink:
Yes it is possible. Just use the app "Device Lock" and set it to start on wake, in Settings>System>Device Lock

Cheers.
I have a wizard with WM6.
The device becomes automatically locked if left for say period of 20-30seconds.
How do I control or disable this such that only backlight is turned off?
I have the "Device Lock" today plugin seems to be doing it?

go on start>settings>personal you got app lock, select lock and change the timing of locking, beside that i wouldnt ask such lame questions
hehe, i know it's a noob question but heck I still can't find it.
I'm using NBD7.9 if it helps (maybe the mod change something).
Anyway, in Personal -> I click Lock
It brings up a screen with:
Password
_________
[Tick Box] Prompt if device unused....[x minutes]
But this is password, and not lock/unlock with time to lock
If you are using something like battery status or spbshell, there are options like "lock device on wake up" or something... try unchecking them too...
Check under start>settings>lock.
Do you have prompt if device unused checked?
That's the only setting I found after using search, using Device lock
Hi,
Would it be possible for someone here to create an app with the ability to solve the "only power-button activates the lock screen after standby" issue?
I'm thinking that this would be something a lot of Desire owners would see come in handy.
I would look into it myself, but not being a developer by profession my coding skills are zero. I've tried the app 'No Lock', but it just doesnt do it for me as my Desire wakes up in my pocket with the lockscreen deactivated.
(Couldn't find another thread regarding this, so forgive me if it's already been posted before.)

There is an app already called "myLock" which has an advanced mode that allows you to double press any button to unlock the screen, just don't use it with the HTC pattern lock as it messes up.
+1 for this.
Btw, you can try LockBot. It is neat, but the disadvantage is that once you get a call, the lock deactivates, which is plain irritating. If you are carrying your cell in your pocket and you receive a call, it might happen that not only the call gets answered/rejected but it can start dialing some random numbers as well! has happened to me once.
So its not perfect, but it works ok.
I just hated pressing the power button every time i had to unlock the phone.
Thanks. This is actually a usefull tool, and does the job well. However, i'd still like a tool that lets me choose a specific button for activating the unlock slider screen, as id like to keep the slider.
But thanks for the advice.

I've been using myLock for a few days now and updated this morning. I don't see the advanced features.
It's under mode select for me, press where it says auto unlock.
I believe this is what you want.
I press the menu button to wake up the phone, and menu or slide to unlock it.

I believe this would work only if your phone is rooted?
Hi all,
Could anyone develop an app that reproduces the power button's function? I really would like to turn off the screen WITHOUT locking the device and turning off the "smart lock" function. I have already tried almost 20 apps(like screen off & lock) and even with tasker and secure settings, without success. I don't know what to do..
This will be useful for all who want to use "smart lock" feature integrated by Google, like trusted devices and places, face recognition, physical contact.
These are automatically disabled if you use any of the app/widget that "locks the screen".
I'm kindly asking someone who knows how to make a simple app on Android :fingers-crossed:
Thanks in advance!
Hello, I am using lock screen app such as "Screen Off" to lock my phone instead of using the power button.. Just find it a bit more convenient that way..
However, once i lock the phone that way, the face recognition doesnt work anymore when i unlock the phone.. I have tried 4 lock screen apps, all give the same problem..
Any of you facing the same issue> Any workaround? Thanks in advance..
Same here, I'm using OnePlus 5
I don't believe there is a workaround. Android requires a pin or pattern unlock after the phone has been locked by a 3rd party service.
There is a workaround!
Hi,
I had the exact same problem just now. Instead of using the "Screen Off" app, you can add a new "quick command" in Bixby called "Screen Off". After creating the command, there's a menu option on it to add it to the home screen. It behaves identically to the Screen Off app (albeit about 1 second slower), but will allow screen unlock using face detection afterwards.
