Downloaded S2U2 and installed it.
Installed it on my units hdd and then soft reset.
Now nothing happened, so I went into programs and saw the map which I opened and clicked the S2U2 icon. It locked the screen and everything was sooo small, the font wasn't barely readable. It was ugly like hell and the green bar slide thingy was super small too...
I checked under settings and couldn't find font size or nothing so...
Then it doesn't have auto lock so does it actually make me go in and activate it manually everytime I wanna lock with S2U2?
This **** is weird...
make sure you actually downloaded the VGA version.
hey how do you keep it running? everytime I unlock it the program stop and if I lock the phone by the power button... S2U2 wont run again
I checked the setting but I dont see anything that will fix it... am I missing something here?
make sure u have iLock running. that's what starts up S2U2.
Nah, nevermind, thanks for taking your time answering.
I think it's ugly... Like the normal lock method...

Hi, I usually slide open just to power on the phone.
So, I would like nothing to happen when I slide the phone open when on the today screen..
Does somebody have an idea how to do this?
Are you talking about the Keypad QuickTasks?
You can easily find the option on Start -> Settings -> System Tab -> Keypad QuickTasks
Yes, I mean the dialpad quicktasks.
When this is disabled I get the dialer instead.
As a "workaround", you could just press the red "hangup" button after opening the phone to return to the home screen...

this annoys me too, i may write a small program that looks for the keyboard opened event, and minimises the phone program

That will be cool!
Oh.. I've been using a certain "Yet another lock app" v1.2 or something like that... and I always set mine to lock and suspend everytime I do a right to left sweep (via FTouchFo). And everytime I slide the keypad, it automatically unlocks and nothing comes up; no quicktasks nor phoneapp). I'm not kidding... I don't know if it's a good "side-effect", but that's how it works.

I actually prefer this than any other locking app out there since this app uses the same built-in Device Lock program with a few nice modifications.
Enjoy!
Optional Alternative
I wrote a mortscript file to disable both menus
1. Extract
2. Place "Kill" folder in Program Files
3. Place run.mscr in startup
4. Reset
Enjoy
Simple fix for this
Hi there,
I just got my Niki a couple of weeks ago (with T-mobile in the UK) and this has been bugging me too ever since.
I figured that there must be a registry setting to control this somewhere as the Keypad Quicktasks are able to adjust this behaviour. Last night , I finally found it.
The setting in question is:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/ActionScreen/Check
With the Keypad Quicktasks on, it is set to 1. With them off it is set to 0 and will instead launch the phone app.
Simply set it to anything else (e.g. 2) and both the Quicktasks and the phone application are disabled upon sliding open the phone. The active slide event is still recognised and sliding the phone open will still answer an incoming call.
Sweet.

Agreed Thanks fenallen
i've come accross a problem - a reset seems to wipe the settings and has reverted to showing the phone screen???
Well it seems to survive a soft reset as well as power cycles with the battery removed so I presume you mean a hard reset, in which case ... isn't that the point of a hard reset?
I would be amazed/worried if it wasn't set back to default by a hard reset.
nope, i am on about a soft reset! i'll try again to see if it keeps the settings this time
Im happy to say it works fine, after i made a soft reset.
power on/off
it´s posible to change the action of the power buton hardkey?
thanks
I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

NICE!!!!! Works good so far. Now I won't be divorced! LOL
I missed the last train yesterday, because I was not able to slide and unlock S2U2, since it was stuck in landscape and wouldn't change back to portrait. I was unable to 'slide' the slider all the way to the end to unlock no matter what I tried ! The only way to get rid of it was to soft reset.
Do I need to use gyrator to disable rotating (if so could anyone tell me how ?) , or is there some setting within S2U2 which I didn't spot ?
Thanks
I have exactly the same problem, would like to know if there is anything to do about it. I have disabled it for the moment
yeah Gyrator might have problem with S2U2 this way..
I was used to disable it, it somehow worked but it's not so perfect
here a solution i'm using, but it may look a little silly when u do
--> Try rotate the phone in different orientations. The S2U2 will eventually turn into a unlockable look... and a little tip for you: If the S2U2 looks reversed (like when you're holding the phone reverse-portrait but the S2U2 is displaying in portrait mode, vice versa) and you cannot slide the unlocking bar, try slide on the position where the bar should be if it displays correctly.
it looks silly, but it works

and oh, by the way, i found it doesn't happen so often now (maybe wallpaper enabled? or it is what it used to be... no idea..)
then this solution, i think it's worth a try
I personally just hold down 'Hang Up' for a few seconds which automatically locks the phone
Easy to use, no hassle

well..
we all have our habits using phones
for us uses S2U2 as a screen lock, this is the temp. solution and the best thing would be a patch for it..

Hi
I have had the same issue with S2U2 rotating but never any problems with the phone part
S2U2 is disabled in Gyrator2 but it seems that when using another app in landscape and lock the phone it does not seem to be able to rotate back quickenough before locking with s2u2
All i have done is to select unlock when stylus is removed within the S2U2 settings and now if the screen is corrupt in S2U2 i just remove the stylus and it unlocks.

silly question perhaps, but how does the state of your cell phone make you miss the train?

yep this seems the best option so far. i've had this prob and reset the phone many times before remebering that taking out the stylus unloks it ....

i was trying to check what time the last train was leaving, and I lost very valuable (!) 4-5 minutes trying to unlock the stupid screen and when that didn't work waiting for the phone to reboot. by the time i was back online it was too late.... also no frickin' cabs on oxford street when you need them !
My original screen lock has gone all of a sudden. Theres no lock icon that i can slide. Instead my phone just says ' to unlock the device tap unlock' .
Bit weird. Id like the original slider back if possible. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
press the windows button on the left side of the taskbar
then go down and press lock
it starts working again...its a common bug of the newer roms.
Suddenly my lock slider disappered too. Pressing the windows button and choose lock makes it work once but when I've unlocked it with the slider and set the phone to standby it won't appear again. Help... Very annoying.
Installing the HeartofWolf lock screen might fix it.. I never had this problem but it basically moves the lock slider to the bottom of the screen. Might also keep it up always and rule out this bug in sense..

It did move the slider to the bottom (Which was nice) but it did not solve my problem that the slider won't show up when I wake up the device :-(
Which is the exact cab that i need the slide bar down? I saw a list of HeartOfWolf cabs and didn't want to experiment one after the other to make sure it worked with Sense & HD2... Cheers...

The one I tried was HeartofWolf Lockscreen fix v4 transparent.cab
My lock screen was working fine (I would press the red button and it would lock it... same as stock)...then I accidentally installed dinik lock screen and uninstalled it,..now my HD2 does this - when I press the red button it locks it, but its not the lock screen anymore -it shows the last screen I had open and it says "unlock" on the bottom left...now the problem is when I press any button (even on accident) it unlocks it -leaving me calling and pressing things I dont even know about while the phone is in my pocket...
anyone else with this issue? any know how I can get it back to how it used to be without any dramatic changes (such as re installing the rom, hard reset etc...?
edit: I reinstalled the dinik lockscreen and it works...but I miss the stock lockscreen, maybe I will try looking for the stock lockscreen cab file to see if that works....but I dont understand -it must have uninstalled it automatically when I first installed the dinik lockscreen.
Check to see if \HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\DeviceKeyLock and DeviceLockWhenSuspend are set to 1 in the registry.

I uninstalled S2U2 and now mine is missing as well.

Yes they both are set to 1.
Please elaborate this for me...
I wanted to get rid of the lock functionality, so I set them to 0. I hoped yours had gotten switched, but having 1 is correct. So its another issue.

yea ive seen this. annoying, cos as you noted any hard button unlocks it.
Happened to me when i was messing with the LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr file, guess it got corrupted.
Heres an original. unzip it, drop it in windows/lockscreen and soft reset.

I cannot find this directory ? Nevermind sorry, I found it through my phone, but from my PC's side I could not find it.... ?
on the pc you need to open file manager click tools folder optionssecond tab (not at a pc so can't say exactly what it says) and tick show hidden files and folders, un tick hide file extensions, tick show projected operating system files.apply, and choose apply to all folders. now you will see everything.
to be honest its really slow browsing the phones windows folder from the pc. I just copy to sd card then move it from the phone.
