S2U2 Revelation, Maybe!

Ok im sorry if someones mentioned this already, its just that i noticed it now and thought id let everyone know just incase no ones tripped over the idea.
as we all know, when S2U2 is installed on the diamond, pressing the power button on the top locks the phone and puts it into the slide to unlock interface, however alot of people have noticed that by pressing the home button, it takes you to tflow3d thus the S2U2 lock becomes useless on the diamond as you can easily and accidently press the home key while the phone is in your pocket.
N e ways back to the "revelation",
i was playing around with secondtoday, where i used the standard wm lock, and then pressed the power key to put it into the S2U2 interface, i now realised that the phone was trully locked, and nothing would happen when you press the home key.
n e ways, i just thought wouldnt it be possible to make it so that by pressing the power button, both the S2U2 and wm lock start at the the same time, and then when u slide to unlock the standard wm lock is also disabled.
im sure some1's thought of this, but i just had to share my thought just incase

Or you can use the new 1.13 version of S2U2, I think it solves this?

And you enabled the key lock? It's disabled by default.

I thought the new "Key Hook" feature did it. I don't have a Diamond, so I can't confirm.

Sure I came along this idea long time ago when there are so many other lock programs flowing around.
Technically, there are a few issues:
- the lock & unlock process of S2U2 & the device lock has to be in-sync;
- S2U2 has always be on top of the device lock when locked;
- automate the device lock & unlock (most other lock programs have done this part);
- take care of the CallerID.
Recently this idea came across my mind again, as you said, because of the "Home" button of the Diamond... On the other hand, there is a "long press end key" function in the Diamond for activating the device lock. It looks like very suitable testing bed is right on my hand... so let's see...
P.S. The latest version do try to fix the "Home" button but in another way. You may read HERE for more.

im sure youl figure it out A_C, take your time.
Thanks for what youv done so far

Hi there
I expreienced kinda the same ... i have a workaround for it which I like a lot more.
- I installed AE Button Pro
- defined the action press two times right button as start S2U2 (Slide2Unlock)
It worked fine for me.
ciao!

If you have Montecristoff's HD Tweak installed you can set the phone to autolock, which will lock the phone everytime you turn the screen off in the same way as it would if you held the right button down for a few seconds.

I agree with the earlier post - AEB Plus is an excellent option and has a power off option.
Find it here: http://ae.inc.ru - the unregistered version has almost all the functions available.

Set long press Home key to suspend phone

Hi
Anyone know how to set long press home key to suspend phone?
thanks

I would love to see this too.
In fact, I'm using ADW Launcher and it can bind the home key to do a few different things but unfortunately not suspending the phone. I'm trying to contact the app author now to see if he will add in that feature.
Samsung made a great phone but the casing and button placement is so stupidly designed I don't know what to say. I feel like I'm holding a bar of soap and I can't reach the power button 90% of the time.

What is wrong with pushing the power button?

I would be very happy with a suspend widget or app. Searched the market but only found a reboot/power off widget.
App would be best. I could place that on the bottom menu.

The power button work fine. But the home key is more convenience.

Wake with volume?

Just wondered if there are any hacks to wake up the DHD with the volume rocker rather than the power button?
I have the track pad to wake mod on my Desire and this makes things a LOT easier but as there is no track pad and no hardware front buttons on the DHD I wonder if the volume keys can be used instead?

There is a similar thread already a couple of pages back and there's an app to customise the keys to do what you want.

Widgetlocker will also let you select to wake on home button, and I think volume buttons, I think its much better than other lockscreens so worth looking at.
Tasker will also do this on long press of the search button, if thats helpful.

"No Lock" from the Market works (by BoD). Very simple and FREE.

Thanks, I'll see if I can find the other thread and check these out!

Still not got round to looking at Tasker yet but I intend to do so. Given that the DHD 'buttons' are capacitive this will still work?

I think so, but I couldn't say for sure. I have Widgetlocker set to wake on pressing the back key, which is capacitive in my Galaxy S, so I would assume it does.

Sounds highly likely then, thanks!

Use widgetlocker and you can switch on with any button.

thanks a lot for your suggestion. I installed widgetlocker, but in no way I can wake up the display.
I can wak up the display by pressing the volume button or the on/off and the camera button, but in no way with the home button.
Do you can?
