Hi guys.
I searched a lot in the forum but I didn't find something useful... my slide unlock is disappeared!!! even when the black screen is on, the slide doesn't work anymore. the sense appears automatically... even if I push the on/off button... boh
I installed some programs, like dutty taskmanager, 20 tabs and others, but not so heavy...
is there anybody able to help me?
thx a lot
have you tried a hard reset? Seems like the only thing you can do.
Assuming you are running ROM 1.48 you need to click Start>Lock and then the lock screen will work properly until the next time you do a soft reset.

Hi, does anyone know of a way to get your messages to automatically open when recieving a text, or some other visual notification for that matter? I'm new to windows mobile and I keep missing the small new message green icon!

Yeah.
Thank you jakem: I didn't know that after a soft reset I have to to that operation...
It works.... sometimes things are easier than they seem...
Thanks a lot!!!
I had the same issue as well after I had installed several programs. What I have noticed so far, was that after I installed Dutty's task manager, I've seen a process called 'Start'. When that was running, the lock screen didn't work. When I closed it via Dutty's task manager, the lock screen appeared automatically again! Don't know what the 'Start' process comes from though, but when closing it, it helped for me.

lock not working
install bsb tweaks and select auto lock, them when you press the hang up button/end call button the phone will then lock as it did out the box.
i had the same problem, it dissapeared after doin a few reg tweaks and istalling a few .cabs etc
I got the same problem yesterday! I made a lot of registry tweaks and cant unlock my htc with the slider anymore..
But i found my solution, the tweak for user information was it!!
I deleted all entries in user information and disabled it, and now i can unlock my htc with the slider again..

Happened to me after I installed the SMS patch from HTC. All of my settings changed. Had to do a hard reset and will forgo the SMS patch.
happened to me as well after adding and tweaking, i found that when i turned the power saving to off, on BsB Tweaks, it came back after a soft reset?

This is true for me aswell. I to did alot of tweaking and such, wich made my slider non functional. I then did a ROM upgrade, and did all the tweaking I had done before, only to find out it was Owner Information that was the sinner.
Wich I got from here: [REF] *Leo Hints & Tips* Under HTC Leo: HD2 > HD2 General section. 5. Enable Hidden Owner Info in All Settings\Personal Folder
Go to HKLM\ControlPanel\Owner and change Hide from 1 to 0 and then reset. You can now enter your name you want to register old apps.
I unticked show Owner Information, and the slider unlocks my phone again. But anyways, is there anyone who know if it's possible to get this to work, with Owner Information shown at wakeup AND the slider actually unlocking my phone?
Damn I just ran into this. Enabled show owner info and notes at startup, now slider unlock doesn't unlock to get into the screen. No way to get into the phone unless a hard reset?
am using my US Tmobile HD2 tonight and a blank Screen came um couldnt get to Home Screen.. and no buttons worked so i removed the battery then restart the phone it ask me for my pass word.. i try typing my password it keep saying "incorrect password" dang this sucks!
and when i hhit unlock nothing happens most of the times
I was adjusting my e-mail settings when the phone frooze. Had to remove battery to restart.
But after that I got stuck with this lockscreen.
Softreset didden't work. Tryed to switch between windows standard and windows classic lockscreen but nothing.
How do I get "The Slider" back?
(I have no lockscreen mods installed)

Go to the settings tab, Menu, All Settings, Lock and go to the Display tab. Make sure you've got Windows Default selected, not Windows Classic. Click OK and it'll ask you to restard. You should now have the lockscreen you want back.
Hope this helps
Edit:
Sorry - I just noticed your device isn't in English. I hope you can translate my instruction on your device okay.
Sorry, I guess "Standard Windows" is Swedish for "Default Windows" so i have already tryed that.
I have also tryed it with HTC sense off but still no change.
Still in need of help!

Okay - sorry mate. That's me done then.
Thank's for trying!
So what do you think, will a hard reset do the trick?

I reckon that would do it, yeah, but it seems overkill doesn't it. I'd hang fire for now and see if anyone on here comes up with a better solution. At least the phone is locking! It could be worse.

when i sekect lock from all settings, theres only setting password and hint. nothing else. my lockscreen wont automatic lock wen my screen is off.
I found that after a soft reset my Lock screen would not appear after the phone had gone to sleep (or I'd turned the screen off manually).
I solve it by .......
After a soft re-set or having turned the phone off;
go to Start
press 'Lock' at the bottom left of the screen
The lock screen now appears and then acts normally - until the next soft reset when I simply repeat the above
Nop!
Allready tryed that, still the grey lockscreen...

Lost Screen lock
Here is the one simple solution that works for me:
When I installed some cab. files I have lost the screen lock.
Longpress the end/power button. this will bring out options to power off, Lock device, set vibrate...
Simply press "Lock device".
Now you have a screen lock that keeps working.
Well I've tryed that but It will still use that grey thing...
//Johan
Some people don't really read that well, do they?
argh
i have to always manually set the lock device. it wont automatically do it.
i recently installed pocketshield and that messed it up so i dont think everyone deleted properly?
should i use SKTools or a software to delete unused registries? or is it cab files?
YEEEES!
I figured somehow the default windows lockscreen file must have got corrupted...?
So I installed this cab:

found in this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618989
As a last attempt before a hard reset. And thank god it did the trick!
Thank you all for your help, without this forum my HTC would have ended up in the bin the day after I bought it!

still didnt work. just still acting the same.
i have the same problem after i have installed puremind's 1cab4all_20shcutsv1.3No.Net3.5.
i tried the above suggestion but didnt work, i have to put the lock device to make it work, but i dont want to enter the password everytime to go to homescreen.
Anyone have the same problem?
1. This happens a few times on my HD2, make sure you have BSB Tweak installed. There is an AutoLock switch on there. Make sure that is set to On (which it will be default).
2. Then on the odd occasion when the device does not lock, hold the power button to get the Quick List and click Lock Device, now it will be ok - till the next time it happens (mine usually after a few days in which case repeat step 2).
I've tried a few locking programs for my Pure and none of them were quite what I was looking for. So I uninstalled them all and now my phone will only lock using the old 6.1 version locker (hit lock in lower left then hit lock in middle). I cannot figure out how to reenable the Windows 6.5 lock screen with the slider. I tried setting to "Windows Default" in the lock settings but that didn't work. I think something in the Registry has been flipped to off but I don't know what. Any ideas?
(Update) Thought I fixed but didn't Re: Fixed...
...found a file to fix it here on the energyroms site:
NRGZ28 Stock WVGA Lockscreen.cab
Nevermind after rebooting that fix no longer works and now I can't lock at all!
This is common when you install and uninstall 6.5 lock screens, it reverts to the 6.1.
The only fix I have found, other than the dreaded hard reset, is to install another 6.5 lock screen. I use Dusk's if that helps.
Screenshot attached, install Lockscreen first, then install AutoLock, this will enable autolock when you hit your power button.
hi I got tmous hd2 with the stock rom. some time ago I installed throttle lock and it was working fine until this morning. my phone frozen and after I restarted it im getting standard sense lock screen first and then throttle lock pops up. howdo I get rid of the sense lock screen.
sorry for a fail in a title, it should be double lock
Here is the link to the cab that you need to disable the standard lockscreen. This should help you out. Just install the cab and the standard lockscreen will be disabled! http://www.smartphonegurus.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9133-disable-lock-screen/ you might have to register in order to download it but that is what you need! Hope this helps
Hi there,
I have search the forum and the internet and couldn't find an answer or someone with the similar problem. Here is is;
If I set Face Locker to unlock my screen it only work once then revert back to my previous lock setting (I usually use swipe so it revert back to swipe). I do the all shebang to set it and even improve it with a few more pictures but no matter what I do after I use it once (and it works) it revert back to the old Lock Screen scheme.
Anyone has the same problem or it the standard feature???
TIA!
MrDouf
did you change the lock timeout settings? i think the default setting is to relock every 5 minutes and in between then do the normal swipe unlock. change the setting to lock instantly and it should work. at least thats what i remember but i havent used it since ics

BTW, V4.2.1
Hi there again,
Even with the 4.2.2 update, whenever I choose the Face Unlock as the LockScreen it works once then revert to the previous LockScreen that was selected before (swipe in my case).
Anyone is having the same issue?
TIA
