Why don't use Windows one?!

S2U2 is good but you can easyly change the panel and the password question disapear
Hi, is there a way or an app I can use to trigger the device lock manually? I don't mean the simple lock where the screen is disabled. I want the windows lock screen with the password. I set the device to lock after 1 hour of inactivity but I want a way to manually trigger it anytime.
You can use the lockscreen app here and set to lock on Suspend. Then pushing the power button will lock.
Alternatively, you can set the Call End key to activate the lock, so a long press on End will also lock the device. Go to Settings\Personal\Buttons and go the End Key tab and choose appropriate setting.
Thanks for the reply. I tried the End Key but it only works if you disable the auto-lock when inactive setting. And when it works, it only does a screen lock without the PIN entry. I would like to lock the screen with the pin entry
Hello. I was trying to disable Auto Screen Lock on that way
27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0

But there is no such reg entry Is there any other way to disable that function?
create the entry my friend. i.e. new......dword.....name it DeviceLockWhenSuspend nd set value to 0. restart. done
Thanks man. Now it's working
But there is still the problem with double locking if you press "end call" button when using s2u2. Anyone has a solution for that?
Using Widget Locker, having the home button as a wake for the device is asking for trouble. Is there any way to disable this?

You can disable it in widget locker settings. But home button wakes the device with the default lock screen too
Is there no hard permanent solution?
I've been looking around for options to avoid using the physical power button to turn my N6 on or off. The double-tap-to-wake functionality has been documented elsewhere (here, for instance), though I've found it harder to implement a gesture to turn off the screen. I finally happened upon using the "input keyevent" shell command. This is different (in a better way) from using a Device Administrator app that locks your screen; the input keyevent command exactly duplicates the power button behavior and so will obey your settings for when to actually lock the phone (as opposed to just turning the screen off). If you have root and Tasker, it turns out that all of this is easy to do; both the double-tap-to-wake and gesture-to-sleep actions don't require stand-alone apps to implement.
Requirements:
Root access
Tasker
A custom launcher (like Nova) that allows you to implement gesture shortcuts
For double-tap-to-wake, create a Tasker task (I call it "DTTW") that has one step: Run Shell (under "Code"), where the Command is echo 'AUTO' > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/1-004a/tsp Check the "Use Root" option.
For gesture-to-sleep, create a Tasker task (I call it "Turn Off") that has one step: Run Shell (again, under "Code"), where the Command is input keyevent 26 Again, check the "Use Root" option. You may have to choose an icon to link the task to a launcher gesture.
Now, to implement double-tap-to-wake, run the DTTW task, and you're done. It will reset (i.e., double-tap-to-wake will no longer work) when you reboot, so you can set a profile to have Tasker run the DTTW task on Device Boot (this is an Event, under "System").
To implement gesture-to-sleep, use your launcher to choose a gesture that launches the Turn Off task. Using the Nova launcher, I started Nova Settings --> Gestures and Buttons --> Swipe up Two fingers (the gesture I chose) --> Shortcuts --> Task Shortcut --> choose the Turn Off task. Now, whenever I swipe up with two fingers on my home screen, the screen goes off.
Done! Easy! Free!

But I believe that locks your phone. I just want to turn off the screen, as if I'm pressing the power button.

no. it just turns your screen off, just like pressing the power button. if you have a password set, itll lock the device, just like using the power button.

Are you sure? If I have a PIN set, with my phone set to lock 10 minutes after screen off, you're saying that the lock screen widget will turn off my phone but not lock it (for 10 minutes)? I think it locks it immediately.

itll behave the same way as pressing the power button to turn off the screen.
yup, I use it and it is the same thing as turning your phone off with the power button.

Well, I have nothing against Lock Screen Widget, but when I installed it and used it, it immediately made me enter a PIN to unlock my phone, even though this wouldn't happen for 10 minutes after pressing the power button.
Just wanted to say thank you for this. I have a smart watch and use that smart lock feature where if my watch is connected my screen won't lock.
All the lock screen apps in the play store lock my screen regardless if my watch is connect. But your method with tasker works perfectly thank you so much.
