anyone know if you can lock the touchscreen ?

Hi all,
when you got the screen folded over and facing out, any way of locking the screen?
thanks
ross

I was also woundering about that...

when you have the screen in phone mode, there must be some way of locking the screen!

well if nobody here knows, o2 won't know!

Not sure if this answers your question but mine is set up thus:
In 'Settings/Buttons/Lock' set 'When device is off' to 'Lock all buttons except Power Button'
I keep the screen outwards and use the power button to lock/unlock.
One snag is that the phone seems to unlock itself when receiving an incoming call. I therefore can accidently cancel it trying to get the damn thing out of my pocket.

I do believe it locks the screen during installation of the ext rom..
This is done by running tpdisable.exe from the windows directory..
A word of warning though: IT'S DISABLED!
Unless you bind tpenable.exe to a button FIRST, you're screwed..
(Ok, a soft reset should fix it..)
I think they are called tpenable and tpdisable...
I don't have the device yet, so I can't check right now.

When I was looking at the config file, there was no mention of an exe, it was like a command (unlock your ext rom and take a look at it).
I got the impression this function was now embedded in the OS hence no exe. Probably wring of course....

Then it should be possible to make such a program, and assign it to a button..

Any one work out what the key combination is to diactivate it on the Universal?
TIA

I guess it would be the equivalent keys of leftmost and rightmost keys on HTC Blue Angel ('Windows' and 'Ok' keys!?)
However you guys, should try MortSaver (freeware also)

At least you can set several parameter according your preferences.
I just found an issue related with Voice Speed Dial interworking.

Does Slide 2 Unlock (S2U2) Work?

Hey guys.
I cannot get this application to run on my dual! It just loads a black screen. It works though because I can slide to unlock it without being able to see the screen which isn't all that useful!
So is this just me?

Same problem on my Kaiser
Hi there!
I am having the exact same problem on my Kaiser phone.. :-(
Who can help?
Henk.

It's known bug with certain devices but here's a workaround disable Direct Draw:
Edit your registry, navigate to \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2
Find the key DirectDraw and change the value from 1 to 0.
Funny enough on my dual I didn't have to do this tweak!

'slide' to unlock?
I assumed 'slide' to unlock was sliding the phone open..
after a couple of resets I found out that you had to 'slide' on the screen
I there really no way this to may it work with sliding the phone open,
thought this would be really nice..
Besides from this misunderstanding of mine it works fine, caller Id is very nice!

Wow.
You are actually amazing for making that work!
You know, that may be one of the best answers I have ever recieved. Thank you so much

My Wing was doing this also. I changed the name from wallpaper.gif to Wallpaper.gif and it works fine now.

Worked!
Worked fine for me; thx!

works after the registry key change, but....
It works lousy if you activate the callerID. When you get a call , the internal phone app. takes over the S2U2, and after you finish the call the screen just remained in the position of the incoming call picture of the S2U2 and you cannot do anything except soft-reset. :-(
Does anyone has an idea or suggestion?
TIA/Zohar

sorry for my stupid q:
may i know why you choose s2u2 instead of the WM6 built-in key-lock feature? just due to big wallpaper instead of the Today screen, or some other great features attracted you?

Hey good question.
I prefer it because its a sleeker interface to go with a sleek device and also mainly because it annoys iPhone users that I know.

haha.. lol
i personally like the big caller photo most. yet i still can't make up my mind on using it for long term, because now sliding out the keypad can only wake up the device but no longer unlock it. and personally i still prefer using the green/red keys to answer/reject calls, which means the built-in key-lock feature can also do.

..and one more
It seems that all the keys and everything is locked except the iCube.
This can be activated even thouth the S2 is in keylock state.

(for Sprint Touch (Vogue) and Touch Dual (Nike))
you can lock the cube as well by adding this reg key:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Disable4SpecificApp\S2U 2]
"ClassName" = "S2U2"

is the ' ' space at the end of the key name correct? 'S2U 2' or should it be 'S2U2'?

no space. just S2U2.

Automatic lock device

Hello, me does not know how to too much or put that then I puts it here.
I look for an application for locked automatically the device at the end of defined time.
Kind S2U but widely lighter which makes only the locking as when we rest on locked which is has the origin present in WM.
Thank you.

go to start > settings > Today and select Device lock..now return to today screen and you will notice Device Lock...enjoy

This method is not automatic... and we cannot adjust the time

See my post on FM lol !

I saw but it does not work

I would like something like this too. S2U actually keeps my sbp time from working correctly (mutes sound.....which for alarms kinda defeats the purpose)

S2U is too heavy to a lot of level (RAM, battery...)

try these mini S2U analogs. They're pretty small.

mini S2U analogs?? What is it?

Hi,
Here is mini S2U2.
@+

Hi, I personally use a past version of s2u2 called Slide and I launch with batterystatus everytime the screen turned off. That method allow recover the RAM used for the Slide because this program isnt run in background.

SPB Mobile Shell vs. S2U2 Conflict - is it just me ?

Hi
Hope someone can help. My phone (Polaris) has gone back to O2 for repair and I have to use a Kaiser for the month whilst its away.
Use SPB Mobile shell but love S2U2 for Caller ID, and the Slide 2 Unlock function.
However, they are conflicting with each other. I set S2U2 and then switch off device. When I then push the device back on S2U2 pops up but is then over-ridden by Mobile shell.
Any ideas?
PS> I did use the SPBWatcher cab to make Shell my permanent today screen. Have tried both ticking and unticking the option which says make mobile shell enable when wake up.

So S2U2 pops up when a call is coming in instead of Shell? Right. Is that the problem?

Edit: Ohh okay I see what you mean. Is the device set to lock after some time?
Start > Settings > Lock. Is there a password there of is it off.
I had the same problem when that feature was on.

Yes - it's set to lock after 24 hours (my company insist on it otherwise it won't synch my email !!!)

In the newest update of S2U2 1.05 A_C has fixed the problem

Even with 1.05 I still had the same problem. So i had to turn the 'Lock' off.

You need to change the registry settings:
WakeupDelayMS=100 (delay (in ms) to start S2U2 when the device is woke up. For SPB Mobile Shell user, a longer delay time is required, e.g. 300ms to let the S2U2 to lock the Now screen)

Thanks for your help wearefree, but i tried that a while back and it still didn't work for me.

[APP] WM6.5 SmartLock / WM6.1 csdevctrl low memory wm device lock

Try it just get this from others forum and it's free....
Auto Lock v6.06 (CSDEVCTRL)
The locking can be activated at the following events:
1. After a specified period of idle time (no screen tapping or touching the keyboard).
2. After the device has waken up.
3. During a call ("In-Call Locking" Partial or Full).
4. Gesture Left or Right to unlock
WM6.5 SmartLock
1 WM 6.5 use new lockscreen . gray when in wm6.1 or older
2 lockscreen when startup
3 lockscreen when standy
it works well after reboot.

Auto Lock v6.06 (CSDEVCTRL) looks very nice... many options in setup as
executing application after unlock (with command line parameters), locking keyboard, unlocking while slide-out (for raphael i guess), setting right sip, flashing, vibra, etc. ... rly Nice...
but for me LockMeLite is better... (with build in - slide 2 answer option while ringing) cheers
thanks for upload... !

lucasjohny You're the best! Thx. for find this apps.

Hi,
please can you tell me what im ment to do with this?
do i need to install the cabs from the 2 links or just the autolock cab?
Thanks in advance
MG

I'd follow the links to the main thread as both of these apps are on XDA and both have been updated significantly since the OP started the thread.
There are also much more in depth descriptions.
The attached cab files are also outdated. Don't use either of them if you want the latest/greatest.

very nice app!!! I have wanted this for a long time

http://thewingster.com/smartlock.aspx

Thank you very much

I'm wondering whether I can disable the tiny and short sound when I receive a call during the device is locked and turned to silent or vibrate mode? I don't want to disable all sounds of this app, but just this because when the device is turned to silent, it shouldn't make any sounds, should it?
The lock sound is off when I turn the device to silent mode.
