Same here. The Panelbutton as well as the Camera button still work in S2U2 lock mode. It doesn't concern me much, because it's essential that noone gets a phone call or music starts to play while the phone is in my pocket. If the panel-button is accidentally pressed nothing bad happens.

This sometimes occured when I set the "Display Mode" to DirectDraw. Now I use RawBuffer and haven't had this problem for 3 weeks now.
Let me ask you a question:
When in landscape-mode and the phone is locked with S2U2 the button to slide reacts very slow. In portrait-mode the button follows the finger very quickly. Is it the same with your phone?

I have the same problem. Maybe it's the X1
Thanks, so then I'm calmed First I thought it could be an issue of the picture I use but after a few different ones it was still the same. So it's not just my phone
that's interesting, with the exception of the landscape problem I wasn't aware of the x-panel and camera button issues. This is more likely going to be a fix / update needed for S2U2...
I have got the same problem.
S2U2 doesn't work correctly in landscape mode on my Xperia. The sliding thing and the whole program become very slow.
This problem doesn't seem to be solved yet.
I am wondering if its a Xperia only problem, otherwise in should have been fixed till now.

The Xperia always seems to be very slow in landscape mode no matter if I'm using the SE panel, the messaging application or touchflo3D. Very strange behaviour considering the display resolution stays the same.
It is partly a xperia specific problem. The panel button is controlled at a very low level in the phone. The panel button action is located in the registry, but that action is called from a low level. The button isn`t recorded by most programs.
A_C knows of this issue.
btw, you can disable landscape for s2u2. So it`s in portrait allways.

Yeah, that's right. But then sometimes the screen messes up completely when I slide out the keyboard and the phone wants to change the screen mode. Also, I have problems with the dialer and S2U2. Sometimes the dialer screen stays on top but S2U2 locks the screen. There is no way to unlock the screen anymore because S2U2 is not on top but the dialer screen cannot be closed.
If this problem is Xperia specific, I will disable S2U2 in landscape mode. I always hoped they will bring a update which solves this problem.

Yes i realized the same. I thought this would be a problem of Windows Mobile and not of the Xperia. If it is a Xperia problem, this is a big minus point for the phone.
It's a nice unlock system, but I have found that when I use this programme the battery loses power quickly.
was using ver 1.44 very stable for a long time
until i installed panel manager from r3a... same issues with panel button unlocking and ok button unlocking
upgraded to 1.62 and problems got worse...
downgraded to 1.52 and switched back to panel manager r2a for the time being.. which is ok.. b/c i rarely used the growing panel and the new cnn panel sucked anyway..
would love to have all the features of s2u2 1.62 but alas xperia doesn't quite seem to work that well with it
currently i have s2u2 set to ignore screen rotation and not unlock with keyboard slide out
my only real grief at this point is that it won't let me use slied to answer or just the regular answer keys with caller id turned on ... i have to turn it off and use the SE answer key completely unlocks my phone to display that message too so agravating...
A_c makes a kick ass program none-the-less ... !!!
same problem here. Also with last version no lock for panel button and camera button...
Camera and Panel button are known issues ...but not a problem for me either -as I do not see S2U2 as a "security focused lock" ...instead I see it as a "prevent accidental calls etc" type of lock
I still use the system lock with password if I need to "security lock it" (using a today shortcut that immediately invokes it, with password)
Must say I suffered some probs with v1.4 and v1.5 (caller ID & power drain)
But am using 1.62 without problems -it doesn't freeze on caller ID (I have it on window rather than full screen) and the battery drain has gone completely (uses <10% overnight for example, with G-alarm and data / active sync both running all night)
I found that it really was critical to uninstall, delete the S2U2 folder in program files, and delete the whole S2U2 tree in the registry ...and then soft reset -before installing the new version
I'm a huge fan of S2U2 ...its just awesome -without a doubt THE must-have app IMHO and always the first thing I install after a hard reset
I use S2U2 and have just upgraded to 1.62. Seems to be working ok so far, although no-one's called me since I upgraded so not sure of freeze problem :-(
(note to self: Get out more, make some friends ;-)
I find landscape doesn't work well at all with S2U2, but then I also find that with PointUI Home2, so maybe it's an X1 thing with particular software...?
The battery drain issue does seem to be resolved in 1.62.
I too am having problems with screen freezing when a call is received - the slider doesn't answer and since I had the buttons disabled there was no way to answer the call.
I'm still experimenting with other settings but I don't get many calls so it is a long process.
Still, a superb program and essential for me because of the problems with a magnetic case which causes calls to be answered just by removing the phone from the case.

Which means it can't even do accidental call prevention properly, as I found today. It's still quite easy to press the Panel button then the Call button in succession, as they are next to each other, especially if the phone's in a case. Result - pocket dialling, defeating the whole object of program. Shame really, as I've found S2U2 ideal on other phones.
Yep landscape is very slow ..... when i put ignore screen rotation on sometimes when open the keyboard screen goes all fuzzy... bitof a problem. But its a great program...sure it just needs some tweaks n bugfixxes for the X1
sweeet on v2.02 im no longer getting these landscape issues
hi,
i received my blackstone some days ago and am wondering why i don't have the in-call curtain (slide down while in call for functions like end call / turn speaker on / notes / etc.) that usually comes with the blackstone?
can anyone help?
Because the Blackstone doesn't have such a curtain (also if i second you: would be great to have it
Dont have a curtain, but when you answer the call, below the caller's photo you should see two rows of three buttons each .........
Top row :
1) Hold
2) Add Call (to conference another call)
3) Note (launch the notes application)
Second row :
1) Mute
2) Speaker
3) Contacts
Below all of these you have the big red rectangle "End Call" button ....
These stay on screen until you end the call. Screen may fade (if you have power save features) but you can always re-illuminate with a short tap of the power button on top of the phone.
This has all the features you need, except that it is not a "curtain" that slides on and off.
Hope this helps !!

Did you previously have a Diamond? I recall that, in some of the later cooked Diamond ROMs, a phone screen curtain was introduced, and that this was sometimes said to have come from the HD (not sure if it really was from a pre-release version of the HD, as I am not a cook). I also recall that there were many requests for the "slide to answer" function of the HD, and that these two items seemed to get confused. I think this may be why you were expecting a curtain in the HD, which, as far as I know, has never been there.
Hope this explains things, and the phone curtain is a great feature IMVHO
I replaced a rom on my wifes diamond and this had the curtain. personally I like it. on the HD your cheek knocks the screen often muting the call or similar.....

I need the same thing ... in-call curtain... and I could not find it even now ...
Did you found a solution yet?
While browsing the xda forum, i found a thread with diamond phone canvas slide to answer/ignore function http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=464286 . is it somehow possible to run it on xperia? tried the one in the link, but couldn't succeed to load it properly... when someone calls me, i can't see anything, only sound, and when entering the phone menu, i can barely see the numbers in there surrounded by white colored areas.. has anyone tired it already?

I have that feature in my SPB Pocket Plus and you slide to turn off keylock then press the answer button to answer any call.
dloaded the blackstone dialer, but after long installation, at the end it just failed. i tried it a few times again, and still the same error appears.. any ideas?
Try Inesoft Phone it works on mine.
I've searched and couldn't find an answer so here goes:
I bought 2 HD2s on release day. One had data connection problem and I returned it for a new one. The second has been fine, but I came to realize that the large "Missed Call" notification doesn't show up above the calendar. I'm not talking about the small indicator at the very top of the phone. I can't figure out if user error is the cause here (i.e. did I hit an option I didn't mean to?). Any ideas?
No one? This does seem to be a bizarre bug and I cant imagine it is truly a bug in the Sense stock TMOUS rom. I must have changed something about notifications settings somehow. Any thoughts?
Do you mean how on older phones with the older touch flo 3d like the Touch HD, have that Call History button which turns into 1 missed call if you have a missed call?
Then no its not meant to be there, they took it out (stupid yes). If you want it back, go the themes and apps section and download cookies home tab 1.7, you can add it there aswell a boatload of other features.
Oh! you mean this was an option from cookie? I have it installed on mine but not my wife's phone. I'll try this out!
And yes, what I meant was when you miss a call, a large notification gets popped in the middle of your screen right over the calendar. Thanks!
Hey guys, I'm running a Sense build (Phiremod's Ace build) and having a problem with the HTC dialer's answer/reject call slider. (note that this is a problem with any of the Sense builds - not picking on Phiremod's.)
I pocket carry my HD2 and since the Sense answer/reject is an up and down slider, i always wind up answering or hanging up the phone when I pull it out of my pocket.
Does anyone have any ideas to change the incoming call behavior? I know I can remove the HTC lock screen, but the answer/reject slider is apparently part of the dialer (which I love otherwise). I used S2U2 on WinMo, and have been digging around for an Android alternative. Is there any way to get the stock Android answer/reject slider (left to right) on Sense without losing the HTC dialer?
Thanks,
Ryan
+1. Have the same problem
+1, the sense lockscreen makes no sense. Unlocking in pocket, answering can be done just by looking at it from wrong angle...HTC must come up with something quick. Can't even call that a lockscreen
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
+1
happened a lot of time to me... I'm happy to know that I'm not alone...
Im not sure why HTC made the slide up and down like that it really doesn't make any sense. On the WimMo sense it slides side to side.
Count me in Big relief to see others with the same "challange". In my case it often answers call without me knowing it when its in my pocket.
+1
This is the only reason I avoid Sense. Phone upside down with the screen facing my leg is the only position that works (ie makes it easy to check the screen by pulling it out of my pocket). Unfortunately, that also declines every call I try to answer.
+1 !!! anyone?!?!
solution found!
OK i hope you guys see this - i found a solution -
just install this .apk, it presents a screen with two simple buttons (answer\decline) instead of having to slide. works like a charm no more leg\but answering declining calls
I had this problem also. Just go to system/app and you'll see htclockscreen.apk and htclockscreen.odex. You can rename or delete them but I just moved them to a folder within system/app so they're not loaded. Once done, reboot and you'll get the stock lock screen.
hey tnx mr_dilly, i actually know that, but even after going back to the stock froyo lockscreen, when getting a call you still get the htc answer\decline slide screen which is, as mentioned, crap..

Sorry, omricn. Overlooked that bit. I thought the slide to answer went away because I got the answer/reject buttons but apparently it changes once the phone is actually locked.
I use a android build without sense. Is there any app to unlock power button?
I often get a call while my phone is in my pocket and then accidently press my power button, so the call will be rejected.

are you sure the power button is the issue? how does your incoming call screen look like? it could be the same issue that i had, the slider responded to the insides of my pocket, i dont believe the power button is being pressed unless you're wearing very very tight pants
I don´t have a sense build.
I get no slider, only the answering buttons on my screen. But hardware buttons are working too. When i put my phone from my pocket i often touch my hardware power button and then the incoming call is ended.
I use proximity screenoff, so screen is blank and i can´t touch any button on my display. If i press power button, the incoming call is rejected.
I want to have a slider on my display and hardware buttons should be locked complete. Only answering a call with something on my display, but not with hardware button.
understood.. i'll be sure to let you know if i find a solution
Hi All!
The biggest problem with Sense in my opinion is the slide for unlock/answer screen. The engineer that came up with that design should get a serious *****-slap. Replacing the lock screen is fairly simple though, e.g by WidgetLocker. Replacing the slide (up/down) to answer is not that simple because it's part of the dialer, not the lock screen.
So if you like HTC sense and the sense dialer, I think you have to stick with the slide up/down for answer. I'm sure that some clever dev eventually will iron out the problem, but currently I see no solution.
Agree with every word..
