Would someone lucky enough to actually own a HD2 already
(thursday 6th Nov. 2009)
try out the http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/ SLIDE 2 UnLock v2 version (free)
This app will give you full screen photos when someone is calling you,
has a very nice homescreen with SMS, Email,Weather and all.
On the 6.5.1.ROM's on the HD it doesn't work well anymore.
Please test this on HD2.
File is attached from http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/

That is correct, will think about it, and will try mayb when I get back @ home.

disable hardware keys
S2U2 works fine on my HD2 (though I don't use the CallerID function).
The only problem is that all hardware keys (except volume) wake up the phone. And worst, a long press on on-off key start the power-off panel (quite troublesome given that you can shutdown the phone accidentaly in your pocket).
Someone has a solution ?

I think it's ridiculously unlikely that that will ever happen! Do you keep random button pressing machines in your pockets?
I've had mine for 2 weeks now, and it's not even been out of standby mode when I've taken it out of my pocket, ever.

Apart from the fact that wm6.5 slide to unlock doesn't show all day appointment
By the way s2u2 works fine to me.

I've had the problem of power-off panel yesterday, that's why I ask this question.
And the problem for the other hardware key is that it is battery draining to have the screen on (and I don't wear baggies, thus it happen quite regurlarly)

Already installed on my HD2 very nice, anyone know how to disable the slider lock of origin HD2?

Look at the sticky "Leo hints and tips" item 27 Disable Auto Screen Lock

You can disable the original slider with the cab in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4996782&postcount=2961
Also all day appointments is an option in the settings you need to enable!
S2u2 Works perfectly for me BTW, on HD2

You are right. S2U2 lacks a quick resleep function (which is present in TouchLockPro). When TouchLockPro has fixed the G-sensor detection, I think it is way better than S2U2 in terms of locking (except that it doesn't have the sexy interface). I don't really care what it shows on the screen when it is locked.
No, with S2U2 active, I can't long press the end key to turn off the phone without first slide-unlocking.
Fortunately, the panel is still locked after HD2 is waked up by a hard key. At least it won't be sending mails or dialing phones in your pocket.

Thats not true. With the newest version that doesn't happen. I tried to replicate the behavior and nothing...

Ive asked this question on another thread but has anyone noticed a problem with caller ID, if the image is from a linked facebook profile it doesn't show up when someone calls.

The pictures aren't actually on the phone though, they are just retrieved from facebook. Is there any way you can get S2V to utilise them?

well in that case you have to download them, get a nice fullscreen image, believe me its very impressive when someone calls you and its pic is fullscreen and clear

Bit of help please:
Do I have to uninstall S2U2 Version 1.62 before I install Ver 2.24 please?
Or can I just install ver 2.24 over 1.62?
Thanks

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?
Sam
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!

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'?

[APP]Diamond & S2U2

It's found there are several issues when running S2U2 on Diamond. An intermidiate fix is that:
1. Disable DirectDraw will prevent the occasional blank screen;
2. Enable NoBackLightCheck (it's only valid in v1.05 or later; create a DWORD value with name NoBackLightCheck and value 1 under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2; restart iLock2) will make IdleStart works again.
Known issues:
1. CallerID does not work.
2. Home key cannot be locked.
3. "S2U2 Settings" has error when it's scrolling about half the way.
UPDATE on 29 July:
A new version of S2U2 v1.10 is released at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412418.
For optimal usage with Diamond, make sure you grab the VGA version & turn on "Don't double check Backlight" at the S2U2 Settings.
thnx A_C for the info, already try to solve it but hope you can come out a diamond version soon....by the way s2v zoom function also not able to use on diamond any solution??
Had the same problem with zooming, did not found the bugs with s2u2 yet but if you say soo... Is there a version for Daimond of s2u2 en s2v coming??
Greetz and thanx for your wonderfull applications!
thank you for yr concern. the only thing that real bother me is my diamond always answering my calls due to the pressure from the belt case. i realy hate that. i miss s2u2 soooooo much. please do something. no need of gifs or fancy clocks. only a slide to unlock and caller id that works with the diamond. please!...
"ExceptionEXE4"="cprog.exe"
"SafeMode"=dword:00700000
for callerID, if you use advanceconfig to disable the phone skin, then it works! But your diamond-style dialpad will disappear.
I just installed S2U2 on my diamond.
When my device is locked, i can access my device when i press the home key. so basically, it is not ''locked''.
any idea how to disable all hardware buttons during locked up?

Caller photo size

Hi there, I have a "problem" with the photo that appears when someone is calling. To be more specific, the size is very small. Is there an app that makes it bigger, like iphone for example?
You can use S2U2 and enable S2A (slide to answer).
Then you get full-screen photo and you need to use a Iphone-like slider to answer. Bonus is you won't answer accidentally anymore.
Hope this helps.
Search to find the app (is in the general software section, I think)
You need to enable Caller ID to Full Screen to get S2U2 to work with the Caller ID It's working really well on the Diamond. Might have a slight increase in speed if you disable the Diamond Dialer. But that's personal of course..
Yes S2U2 is the solution to your problem. Very handy application.
For you guys that use S2U2 do you have the weather info on S2U2 screen?
It worked for me once but not anymore
it works! thank you for the help...
After a day of tests, I found that with S2U2 installed, when someone calls me I cannot hang up. By pressing the hard button (or even the soft button when enables) it only mutes. Any idea?
U can use Inesoft Address Book (not free) to get big Picture
and u get better contact with photo too..

Use Diamond Tweak to disable it. Just changehone Pad Style, from Diamond to Windows Mobile Standard.

S2A 480x640 picture
it would be great if S2A can use pictures from its own folder, because the standard pictures are very poor quality, what i mean is if i can prepare jpg pictures in 480x640 resolution of people from phone book, name these pictures like contacts in phone book or numbers and S2A will use them instead standard ones. anyone know is it possible?
I've noticed too that s2u2 caller pics look kind of blurry. Is there any solution?

[problem] WM 6.5 slide lock problem: UNKNOWN CALLER ID when in suspend/power off mode

there is a problem with WM6.5 roms lock slider:
if a call comes in & the lock is active but the phone is in suspend (power off or manually pressed the power button) the call will show "unknown caller"
you will not see the name until you answer od then you can see it later as missed call
this is annoying as you can not screen the calls & answer/ignore the ones you like
the slider lock will show the name only if the sceen has not turned off yet (did not enter suspend mode yet)
is there any fix out there?
I am thinking if someone knows how to make the screen light dim firest the turn off only (without power off / suspend) then it will work
anyone has a registry tweak to just turn screen off & leave the ppc running without suspend?
or any other fix????
i like to use the wm6.5 lock, i know i can use S2U2 but i prefer this one & hope we can fix it
thanks
Same issue !
Same problem here...
i use Chobit Company SmartLock and HTC phone Canvas...
HTC phone canvas is first to present ID caller then in communication WM6.5 lock is activate by Suspend mode in communication... because Chobit Smartlock is in use... other i have the same issue like You...
unknown caller with WM6.5 lock when it s suspend mode...
i agree, if anybody knows how to solve this problem... i buy it !

hmm i couldn't get the smartlock to work for me on my xperia
i used CsDevCtrl and it's sorta working... it auto locks my device if the backlight turns off or if i manually put it in suspend mode *power off button* and locks on wake up.... has a bunch of features i'd never use so it's a bit more complex than i'd like. but even with that auto lock i still get the unknown caller... i'll have to read more about htc phone canvas.. i'm not really liking the xperia dialer anyway... never have...
p.s. while we are on this topic of wm 6.5 screen lock... anyone else notice that alarms sometimes don't display the minutes if the phone is locked ? the slider works and everything for snooze and dismiss... but... it just shows the hour of the alarm.. and then dots like "10:...." even though the alarm is for 10:25...? plz post if you are also havin this problem...
again tho.. these problems might just because it's not the offical build yet... these problems may be worked out with an offical release... nothing i can't live with at the momemnt
so i still have no luck with this unknown caller ID issue
i am sure someone knows the registry tweak..as many programs just use screen off
for example media player as you can play music while screen is off
or S2U2 can lock / turn off screen but leave phone working unsuspended
please help
Thanks
I've noticed this also but if you use a dialer that has its own slide to unlock then it tends to work fine..at least for me anyway..
It does take about 2 seconds for it to go from unknown caller to who it actually is though..
not sure if device dependant, when a call comes in and no id showing I simply press the power button twice (off then back on) and i.d then shows
Hmmm, after showing Unknown for the Caller ID this morning, now the caller ID is showing up on wake. Strange. Only thing I have done was install the sdkcerts cab. I'll test further.

Use a registry editor and go to HKCU\Control Panel\Phone\CalIidMatch value is by default 8, i.e 8 Digits. Change that to 7 and soft reset.

Hi
i did not notice that i guess because i did not the alarm with lock screen before
but thanks for pointing it out
i fixed the problem
all what you need is to unzip the attached file..use the 2 files inside to replace the ones in "\windows" folder
i used resco explorer to replace because they are protected windows files
then soft-reset...everything works better after that & shows full clock & am/pm too
enjoy
It seems that the latest builds of WM6.5(builds 21221 & 21222) have solved this issue...

Appointments on the Lockscreen

Hi
Are there any options to show more appointments on the lockscreen than ONE?
One event is a little bit less for a good overview.
Thanks for help.
Hi!
I don't know much about WM 6.5 default lock screen. But I use S2U2 and you can configure it to show several (I guess it's up to 7) appointments in its lock screen.
i mean the HTC Sence Lockscreen:

They know what you mean, which is why they suggested slide2unlock. It's a replacement for the WINDOWS lock screen (not HTC), that does what you ask.
Just to check whether anyone tested the Slide2Unlock application on WM.5 or HD2?
I try to do a search in this forum but it seems that only the old version is available and nobody is developing that application anymore.

My friend told me that he saw some of the HTC Device using the WM6.5 have a better unlock screen than the HD2 or Leo which will show the Number of SMS and Missed Calls details on the lock screen instead of the numbering on the lock button.
Managed to find this program to replace the stock lock and unlock screen, you can display number of SMS, MMS, Emails or Missed Calls instead of the number beside the Lock Icon.
http://www.ac-s2.com/
well, s2u2 is nice for XDA Herald, but not for the HD2.
The standard-lockscreen on the HD2 is much pretty nicer than the s2u2 for me.
are there no reg-hacks on xda-developers???
I totally agree with cms. The windows mobile lockscreen is excellent but it only shows one damn appointment! Surely this has got to be possible?

Yeah, I too like the standard lock screen, would be nice if it showed more appointments though.
Not keen on installing S2U2.
Would be amazing if someone modded the lock screen.
I installed S2U2 on my HD2 and agreed on most of the comments. The standard lock screen looks better but is too basic. The S2U2 has all the info I needed but I cannot get rid of the standard windows one so I ended up having 2 unlock screen now which is annoying. Does anyone know how to disable the standard one?

BSB Tweaks does that.
Or Settings>Security>block phone> untick block screen.
But in my opinion s2u2 is better, it shows the sms, mms, email, and tasks that original htc dont

Just as a matter of interest, do you guys who say you don't like S2U2 know you can customise it by putting in your own wallpapers and/or gifs? You can even have the wallpaper change at regular intervals, giving you a fresh look whenever you wish.
So what you can do, if you wish, is to have a wallpaper that closely resembles the standard lock's wallpaper but sat in S2U2. You then get a better lock application with the look you are after.

PS: If you knew all this but still like the standard item then ignore me.
I like the standard lock screen and would very much like more than 1 appt to be shown. I have tried S2u2 but i find it a bit bloated now, it is very capable and works but i just find it too big/bloated.
Is there a way we could tweak the MS lock screen?

Thanks. Interestingly I cannot find the block phone function under Security so I disable it through S2U2.
As it happens I was also fiddling with the latest version of S2U2 yesterday evening. Hadn't used it since I had my TP.
I'm running XannyTech's latest rom and when I use S2U2 as a replacement for the win6.5 lock, my Manila sliding tabs on the bottom slide behind the bottom bar where the softkeys are displayed on.
Anybody seen this before? I seem to remember that there was a little program to correct that but can't find it back.
Tried fiddling with S2U2' settings but disabling bottom and top bar did not help either.
if anybody knows how to correct that, would be great to hear.
ps: when uninstalling S2U2 and soft reset puts the manila sliding tabs back where they should be...

S2U2 is definitely the way to go if you want to configure the lockscreen to add more calendar entries. But I never got the hang of using the alert bubbles sitting in the bottom right corner of the screen as they were too hard to press with my thumb, one-handed.
I posted in the S2U2 thread about this but the suggestion there was to go back to the original WM lockscreen. Which I did.
I too prefer the standard Lock screen except would love it to show more Calendar items and perhaps Birthdays. The configure page is really limited but better this than someting too bloated for a lock screen.
