Hi, all
I just upgrade to WM6... As usual, i'm using left soft key to lock and unlock my device.... and after 1 minutes the phone will turn off by itself and lock....
So when i press the left soft key, the device will wake up and unlock the screen.... however after i upgrade to WM6 seems like the left soft key is not working... i need to press the power button to wake up the device and unlock the screen by using the left soft key.... Is this the new feature of WM6 ? Is there anyway i can get the function not to lock the key ?
Thanks
Jon
Under my original rom I could push the power button and the phone would go into standby (screen off, buttons dead) and then push the same button and it would wake up. I just installed Open Touch 2.2.1, and now when I go into standby, when I wake it up, I have to go thru an unlock process. How can I disable the unlock process, I've checked under keylock and lock and neither of these have settings that apply. Thanks.
you should ask this in "Open touch" thread. perhaps there is s2U2 installed - a programm that is for locking and unlocking...
you ahve to ask there how to disable this program

Hello all,
I am new to the forums but I have been using the HTC Touch for a few months now, and would like some guidance about a few problems i'm having. First off, I am using the official 6.1 rom with sprint....
I am running S2U2 and am having a problem with my phone turning off while in my pocket. It seems the power off menu can be brought up if you hold the power button, even if S2U2 is running. This is very frustrating, is there anyway to lock the power button when S2U2 is running, or any other option?
Is there any edits that can be done to make S2U2 call the factory device lock? I couldnt find anything related to the lock in the registry. If there is, is there anyway to assign the factory device lock to the power button, so that when you blank the screen it auto-locks? I love this feature with s2u2, and with stock device lock it takes 3 buttons to do this...
Thanks!

The only thing that I could suggest that might help is to get yourself a good case for your phone that would protect the button from being accidentally pushed. I have never had this problem with my phone. The button actually has to be pressed and held to bring up the power off menu. Even when not in it's case, I have never had this happen; however, the phone is only out of it's case, when I am using it. In the case, there is even less chance of powering off the device.

The default device lock works just like S2U2, as it leaves only the power button unlocked. If you locked all buttons, how would you turn your phone back on??

The problem i'm having is that the phone actually powers off while in my pocket somehow....what i'm saying is that the phone not only "wakes up" from the standby mode, but also calls the shut down window and you can press the "yes its ok to shut down" button while s2u2 is running, something the stock device lock will not do.
It would be really nice if there was a slide type lock that was based off the code of the stock device lock.
Thanks for the replys
Find what the application is that launches when pressing the button and add it to the S2U exclusions list.
I have a verizon and my power button toggles screen off and on, so im not entirely sure, Is this a stock popup or a program you installed ? There is probably a registry entry somewhere that defines how the power button functions jsut as the button manager does for other buttons.

I understand your point, and am still wondering what it is you keep in your pocket with your phone that shuts it off!? Anyways, why do you keep referring back to the default device lock? S2U2 performs the same way, as it locks everything besides the power button. If the power button is locked, how would you wake up the device to unlock it ???
the power button has two functions, it blanks the screen if you press it, or it brings up the power off menu when you long press it. The problem i'm having is s2u2 doesnt prevent the power off menu from coming up, where as the stock device lock does. Thus, it is possible to completely power off the phone while the keys are locked.... of course I want to be able to wake the phone up with the power button, but i dont want to be able to turn it completely off.
And i'm not sure how it turns off in my pocket, except i usually carry it with the power button face down (phone upside down) and it must press against the bottom of my pocket...
The application that it is calling is the stock shut down menu, i'm not sure how I could add this to the exception list, as I dont know how to call it remotely....
Thanks again for the replies!
The title of this caught my attention.
It would be very nice to have a registry edit that will lock the device when powered off or on device wake up.
I use S2U2 and I am really not liking it personally, but it is better then the default setup currently I feel.
you know under display option - it says come out of screen lock when you press power button, or any button
every time i set it to a any button and say ok- it will revert back to power button only.
have you flashed the rom to something else? I know the Touch-It rom still has this bug in it - hopefully that will get fixed....
Hi all,
Today I noticed that the HD2 switched off when I had it in my trouser pocket.
I noticed that it is possbile to switch off the device even if the WP7 screen is locked.
Is it possible to deactivate the function (only switching of the device) of the key if the lockscreen is active?
Didn't find anything....
+1 for this, I've had it turn off and reboot in my pocket too!
I noticed you can unlock the device by pressing the power button (screen turns on) and then long press the camera button (device unlocks and goes to camera)

I don't believe it properly unlocks the device, just enables the camera.
Or maybe it can be changed something in the registry...
Button needs to be pressed much more longer time!

I am having this same problem. Phone turns off even when locked if the power button is held for a few seconds.
Is this a generic WP7 problem, or just HD2?
