Hi every one.
So i set "button lock" and also disable mainly all notifications but every time a new sms arrives,the screen goes on.I will like to keep the screen off because if you carry your magician in your pocket and after that sms arrives,you can accidentaly press any button or even touch the screen.
I been checking every thing i could check but i can´t find the answer about this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Third party software Pocket Zen Phone or phoneAlarm.
Ok i´ll check it and see what i can do.
Cheers mate.

There are many occasions the Magician turns on its screen. Rather than trying to find and disable all these, I copied TPDisable.exe and TPEnable.exe from the original Extended ROM into my Program Files folder, and then assigned them to a hardware key (using Hotbutton, so that I can use the same key for both).
As the name implies, TPDisable disables the touchscreen (not the display!), and TPEnable re-enables it. So, before I put my Magician into my pocket, I now disable the touchscreen (one press of a button). That still leaves the keys active, true, but I found that normally the touchscreen is much more likely to be the culprit when strange things happen on your Magician while it's in the pocket, and turned itself on.

Well,that is a very interesting solution,but i can´t find TPDisable.exe
or TPEnable.exe inside my magician.I need a bit more info from you
Daniel.
Thanks a lot for your replies.
What happens if you hold down power button for 2 seconds to switch off backlight? Does the light still illuminate on receipt of sms?
@ cruisin-thru
I can´t see the point of your question,mainly because the thing i am looking for is to "switch off" my Qtek like a normal mobile phone,i mince buttons locks and screen off when a new sms or incoming call arrives and when you push power button for example,then screen go on and also release the lock of the buttons.
Any one can say that then i can use deltalock.I did it but the battery live is going down very quick.
Screenlock is not working properly also,i will say that Deltalock is 95% a lot better than Screenlock.
And finally,why microsoft is developing this OS without fully screen off selectable option???. Who knows!!!
Cheers

Both programs are in the Extended ROM. Most users have made this visible (though not writable) by performing a Hard Reset, and immediately after completing the initial screen adjustment and mini-tutorial and before the device starts installing programs, a Soft Reset.
If you do not want to do a Hard Reset, search this site's FTP server for Magician Extended ROM downloads. There were a few there last time I looked.

Well,after config hotbutton to TPDisable and TPEnable i can´t enable the screen and hardware buttons.
TPDisable is disablind the screen but also all the hardware buttons ( with and without button lock at settins),even the power button.
I use same hardware button for TPDisable and TPEnable ,is that correct or i am doing silly things?
If I arrive an sms the screen is switching on and after a few seconds switching off again if I don't press any key or tap the screen!
It's a changeable registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / System / CurrentControlSet / Control / Power /
WakeupPowerOff =12 (the default is 180)
DisableGwesPowerOff=0 (the default is 1)
If you switch on the Jam (power button) need to press some other key too, because it switches off after 12 seconds!!!

@avers
Well that is another solution but i insist that there should be an easiest way to keep the screen fully off when a new sms or what ever arrives,including hardware buttons off ofcourse.
Any suggestion more?, perhaps at the end and betwen all of us ,we can find the solution.
Cheers.
I think the best solution is third party software like PHONEALARM,
it's easiest way to get main tweaks of Pocket Windows.
get it there
http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.htm
Well my friends,pocketzenphone is not doing what i am looking for.
Next step is to try phonealarm,but probably will work the same way as pocketzenphone,leting the screen to go on every time a new sms arrives.
Sorry for my languaje but F... microsoft and F... devil gates.
As you can read on this post ,phonealarm IS NOT doing it.
http://www.pocketmax.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=429
phonealarm has option named "Don't activate backlight on alarm"
ALARM there means any event, that needs notification.
now i am understanding, that it is some differ that you need.
also i advice you make some registry tweaks to make a very short backlite time when sms arrives.:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\WakeupPowerOff = 10
this timeout in seconds. is used when our device self power on, when SMS arrives or we push the POWER button and do nothing anymore
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\DisableGwesPowerOff = 0
this key is enables this power control system (necessarily change it, or first key will not work)
after the editing registry you need to reboot PDA.

Thank you for your reply i will try like you and others point out and also will keep looking for that utopic soft.
deltaLock locks the screen and buttons even if you get sms or calls. I use it on my JAM and it works so far.

If you read one of my post ,you will see that i allready said that Deltalock is working but it is KILLING the battery live very fast and when i say VERY FAST it mince that you will get almost 6hours against the normal live (more than 15hours).
Cheers mate.
I think if you keep your ppc on all the time you will get this battery life. Anyway I think deltaLock is for keeping your PPC on and having screen and button lock, not having it in suspend mode and not allowing the screen to power up. Sorry about that, seem to have misunderstood your post.
Don´t worry mate, at the end we are all together trying to find a solution to this microsoft silly programing, any comment and any new idea is wellcome.
Cheers.
To secure a Qtek2020i i must disable the phone buttons.
Only the GPRS mode must stay in use. (no call)
Any solution is welcome.
THX for your help
Dany (tontonpc)
Do you just want to disable the buttons or the incoming and outgoing calling facility?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=16135&highlight=disable+button
THX for the link.
I have read and find the AE ButtonPlus verry nice but not freeware.
Ther are also an old version free but...
I will just disable the red and green button.
Any suggestion ??? registry documentation ?
THX Again for your help, and for the link ;-)
Dany (tontonpc)
Why disable the buttons ?
Surely you should block calls using Settings->Phone->Services->Call Baring
I assume if you set this up it can be password protected.

I know how to remap the phone buttons, but i don't know if this will actually create a "secure" Qtek. This is because even if the phone won't execute by pressing the buttons, it can execute with the stylus. Now the solution isn't exactly simple, but it can be done. The "trick" is that the first application that maps the green and the red button, locks them and afterwards no other application can map them. In order to achieve this you must create an application, which will be started either by services.exe or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init which wil map the two keys.
To register the two buttons, you must execute the
RegisterHotKey API
The virtual key code for the green (talk) button is 114 (decimal not hex) and for the red (close) is 115 (decimal again). The fsModifiers parameter as stated in the API must be zero (0). You can give any IDs for these two buttons as long as they are unique.
Happy remaping.
I agree with CSExpert. For securing the phone, you're probably better off using TAPI methods to disable the line, standard API stuff to find and close the cprog.exe app, and possibly consider disconnecting the Phone's Modem programmatically.

Hi
I want to phone to keypad lock itself automatically as a normal mobile do. There must be a setting for this? As for now I have the lock thing in my today screen and have to press it. I often miss and hit something else and the phone calls people all afternoon while in my pocket. Somewhat anoying.
/d
Would be nice to have a device lock that didnt take up so much space on the today screen.

Then look for the DeviceLock CAB file and assign it to a hardware button so you can remove it from the Today Screen (just like I did last week ).
Did a search for that cab file, but didnt find it. Where is it supposed to be?
/d
i used vjkeypress with the link -133 which will lock the device and assined it to my comm butten because i don´t use it that often and have it in my tray also
I cant seem to install the devicelock.cab on my Blue Angel ... is it because it wont run on WM2003 or some other reason maybe.
Does anybody know about another program for key locking the BA?
Cheers

Hi guys!
I'm searching for an application wich can turn automaticly off my screen on call connect.
I've tried several solutions and programms, but none of them worked for my 6.5 ROM.
It really annoys me that i accidently press keys while calling. I can activate an automatic lock of the phone throught Smart Lock, but only an alternative surface appears where i press accidently keys, too.
The power button can switch off the touch screen, but it seems that after some minutes it switches on again automaticly and again i press buttons with my cheek....
It would be really really great if somebody could mention a possible solution or write a little programm to fix the problem!
Cheers and thanks alot!
Nobody got an idea?
I've tried several registry tweaks and programs like:
Touch InCall Screen Tweak
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488991
Touch Lock Pro
http://www.zuinigerijder.com/
but nothing affects wm 6.5....
the same here.
i've duttys r8 turbo rom and the display isn't disabled after a view seconds while doing a call.
tried to fix it by changing some values in hd tweak but without success.
is there nobody who has the same problem?
OK i've tried some more programs.
It works with the trial of PhoneAlarm! But i really dont want to use second today to run the today plugin (the program doesnt work without it), i'm using manilla.
so its possible!
anybody got a solution or knows the algorithm of phone alarm?
cheers
Hello,
How to lock also the Hardwarebuttons with the Default Sliderlock.
I don't want to use a other Sreenlock Program.
I just like to lock the Buttons also when the Screen is loecked.
any Solutions?
Thanks
Are the buttons active at all? During screen lock, I guess only the endcall button is active, waking up your phone.
alex fung ,
you are wrong.
All hard ware buttons except vol buttons can walk the phone/ turn on the screen.
ah you are right. They wake up the screen, but the touch panel is still locked. Try TouchLockPro.
any simple solution please, touch lock pro is soo confusing...
and is there is some solution to lock phone on backlight off, i mean dim is activated not locking when the screen goes off
tnx in advance
Hope this helps
To lock the hardware buttons with the phone in lock mode try modifing the registry.( it is simple but do this at you own risk)
Install a free registry explorer like PHM RegitEdit im sure you will find here it on this site (regedit.Mrln_ARM.cab ) Donate if you like
When installed open and navigate to: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER",Then "ControlPanel",Then highlight "Keybd".
Change "DefaultKeyLock" value data to "1"
Aslo if you feel brave: HKEY_CURRENT_USER-ControlPanel-Backlight.
Change "AutoDeviceLockEnable" value data to "1"
This should activate the lock screen when the screen dims.
Good Luck
NB: You will need to soft reset for the settings to work!

...that part is not mworking on my HTC LEO withh updated offical ROM WWE.
I changed the registry , restarted and still the screen dims but noit locking ..after siome seconds screen goes off. my idea was to have screen locked on dim and stays like this for about 30-40 secs and then to go off.
any suggestion pls.
tnx in advance
HKCU->Control->Keyboard->DefaultKeyLock=1
and
HKCU->ControlPanel->Backlight->AutoDeviceLockEnable=1
is all i need.
It works like i would like to have it.
Thank you.
Touch lock pro is a realy nice program and i appreciate his work, but to me it has to many features.
I've been after this answer for a little while now, and was pleased to find this thread. But... when I looked at my registry settings they were already as you suggest, but all of the buttons along the bottom of the phone still wake it up. Is there another step that I don't know about? (I have tried soft-reset).
I'm running SPB Mobile Shell - perhaps that's getting in the way?
I'll keep looking for a solution and post here is I find anything.
Anyone else have any more ideas?
Thats a shame it wont work for you,It may be spb mobile shell, Rom related or an old locking program you had installed.
Shot in the dark but have you tried changing the values back, soft reseting and then changing them forward again and soft reseting?
registry not working on my HTC LEO too..
dang.. registry doesn't work on my Leo too..
any other way to solve this??
Try soft reseting.
only open your registry editor and make changes then ,wait for 2-3 minutes ( wont matter if your device goes off )
(If off wake device up)Then soft reset again.
otherwise use a different reg editor or flash another rom.
N.B or just use this, it is small and cool:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505032
any recommended reg editor??
I never have a problem with PHM but resco is good.

Remember you will need to wait some time before windows stores the new settings properly. Soft reseting straight away probabley wont work.
