Auto Unlock when slid open possible?

I searched everywhere and couldn't find anything, but is there a way to set my wing to unlock when ever I slide the keyboard open. Kind of like how the sidekick works?
Thanks in advance.

if you press the off button at the top of the device, it will not only button and screen lock it, but if you change the configuration, it will also wake up, unlocked.

You can use slide to unlock, which is an iphone looking lock aplet. It makes regular unlocking prettier, and allows unlocking with sliding the keyboard.

Newbie question

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

[Q] Making my custom lock run like the default pattern lock

Basically, I wrote a private app that generates a different hex number each time it's run, and you have to use a certain algorithm to determine the answer, then input it in binary with a mini-keypad and press the unlock button. That way I can just show anyone what I'm putting in because if they get the phone, they can't use the same code unless the same random number is the same (its seed changes based on currentTimeMillis() / 1000L) Anyway what is the easiest way to make this Activity launch like the regular pattern lock when I turn on screen? also I don't have a lockscreen by default, not an issue. It has to prevent pressing home/back and has to launch without any delay. thanks

doctor there's a bump in my thread what should I do

this is a very good question
the closest i came to finding an answer was the android lock screen src
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=pl.../internal/policy/impl/LockScreen.java;hb=HEAD

Yeah, I cloned the entire source, but it was way too complicated for me to find what I needed. Also, what is the difference between these 4 things?
Keyguard - ?
Lock screen - the screen that has the 'slide to unlock' widget depending on your phone/rom
Unlock screen - the screen where you draw pattern, pin, password, etc.
Wake [lock] - ?
I only have 4 softbuttons, volume +/-, and power on my device, and only power makes the screen come on, which shows WidgetLocker then the pattern screen. Both of which hide the softbuttons unless I hold down power, then it shows power off, airplane, and silent options and the softbuttons panel pops up. This doesn't allow me to press home to bypass pattern/widgetlocker, thankfully.

Halp my thread seems to have a case of severe bumpitis. Is it lethal?

How to lock screen with out power button if i install third party applications finger print or iris not working to unlock phone any idea ?

Not sure of your questions? but you can unlock your phone with face recognition or password. I don't know any other way to manually lock the screen without power key, but if that doesn't work, set the shortest timeout, it should lock itself in 30sec. no matter what, if undisturbed. To go to unlock screen without power button, you can press home screen, about 1 cm from the bottom in the center. Hope this is what you're looking for.

In the Galaxy store think it's called smart edge or something... Only one I found that let's you lock and still let's you use fingerprint without using pin/pattern
