Hello,
can I lock automatically my device by clicking on the power button before to switch the screen off? ( or is there an application that performs what i mean? )
Thank You
Have a look into VJDeviceLock or Matt's Yet Another Device Lock.

Hello, Ive tried the first one already. It seems that it's only possible to lock device by clicking every button but the power one...Is it right?
Try Battery Status plugin discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=270751
You can download the latest version here: http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_BatteryStatus_XDA_Neo_WM5_iM_cs.htm
This application does a number of things but locking your phone is one of them. I have it set up so that when I turn my prophet off (the power button) it locks.
I already have latest battery status, but I cannot set it to perform what you are saying. Can You tell me about your settings? Thank You
Start - settings - today - items - scroll to "BatteryStatus" - options - On Wakeup - check "DeviceLock"
Hope this helps.
what about...
start > settings > lock
tick the "prompt if device is unused for" and set the time to "0 Minutes" from the drop down. Then when you tund off, then on, it asks for the password.
Works fine for me!!
Hello,
I recently received my Nexus and there is one issue that is rather annoying for me.
I cannot turn off the haptic feedback by unchecking it in settings. All that checkbox does is stop it on the four buttons on the bottom of the phone, I still have haptic feedback on the dialer and the lock screen.
I tried to download the spare parts app, and I've even tried a factory reset.
I find this feature really annoying and I am out of ideas on what to do..
Any help?

It's not on. I still get vibration on dialer and lockscreen.
Sorry for bumping this but am I the only one with this problem?
Could it be an hardware issue so I should send it back before I install cynogen and void my warranty.
You can't turn off vibration on dialer. There isn't an option to do that . Google plz work on this.

Nope that just removed the sound and not the vibration.
I got the same issue. It seems that it is unfixable, unless they release un update with this issue fixed
To disable haptic feedback in the dialer: open up the dialer, press menu button, uncheck 'Enable haptic feedback'.
But I don't know how to disable it on the lockscreen tho :/
There is no menu on the dialler, hitting the menu button doesn't do anything.
Maybe He has a custom ROM.
Ah yes, good point.
I have CM5.0.4.1, I can see that it's credited to "ChainsDD, geesun, niuchl, rac2030 and the rest of XDA! " so, yeah it's probably cuz of the custom ROM.
I didn't realize that
Yeah, its actually Wysies Contacts app that has the option. But unless you root, you can't use it
The thing you are talking about might not be haptic feedback at all
Hi, I had the same problem after I forgot where the menu setting was. (Actually I did a factory reset yesterday.)
To turn off haptic feedback,
Go to Settings > Sounds and Display > Haptic Feedback. Uncheck it.
To turn off vibrate on kepress while typing SMS and others,
Go to Settings > Language and Keyboard > touch Input > Text Input > Vibrate When Typing and uncheck it.
Did not understand why they are at two different places as it confuses me and many. Though, thats the way it is. . Enjoy.
What the hell is the point of haptic feedback? One of the worst invention on this phone. Should simply be a "Turn off all Haptic Feeback"
or better yet.. adb shell rm hapticfeedback.apk
I am having a similar yet opposite problem: I cannot turn on haptic feedback.
This is a N1 I just got from HTC as a warranty replacement. (My first one had a dead spot on the touch screen.) It certainly has a working vibrator - When I turn in the phone and see the logo, also when I turn the phone off, it gives me the haptic buzz. I've had the same result in both stock builds and CM6.
I'm wondering if there is a disconnect in some phones where checking the box just does nothing to change the actual setting.
Any ideas?
I had to turn off Kickback in Accessibility settings.
Do you by any chance just mean the haptic feedback when using the keyboard? Cause there's a separate setting for that, under Language & Keyboard > Touch Input > Text Input > Vibrate when typing.
I would like to turn off the haptic feedback in the lockscreen, but I want to keep the haptic for softkeys. Is it possible without installing a lockscreen replacement?
Hey all,
I tried to set up my lock screen, and when I go into settings, I can configure a PIN or password, but I can't enable it. It is set to "off" and when I tap it, it dumps me back to the main settings screen.
I have done more flashing than a Republican Congressman, but nothing seems to work. I'm also good with going back to stock (I think I tried that), but I have to have a lock screen for work.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS
Moving to General
I have the same issue... Glad that I'm not the only one with this issue..
Did you find any solution yet?
I did not post this in development forum... Have posted under general forum...
Settings > Location & security > Tap on PIN or Password to set the lock method.
That's all you need to do, it will automatically enable the protection for you.
To disable the PIN or Password protection, select the Off or Not secured option.
Using Off will display directly the main screen, while Not secured will display the swipe circle.
Have already tried all that... didn't work... I set the pin and still says it is off.. Turned my screen off and lock screen doesn't appear when I turn it back up...
Don't know what is going on..
Are you using a vanilla 3.1 ROM or creepy TouchWiz?
Settings > Location & security > Configure Lock Screen > PIN
Enter PIN > Continue > Confirm PIN > OK > Tap Home > Press Power button
I don't think so... It is a factory stock 3.1 ROM.. I didn't change anything... I have the rooted Droid 1, never had this prob with my phone.. Don't understand what is going on... Have tried the typical steps but screen lock not enabling...
Only thing is that, mine came from Europe as a gift... Maybe this was how it got set up over there? But don't know...
I have a brazilian one with the sam problem. I think it's a bug.

I had the same problem. Go to the security page and chose which method youwant to use, pin, parties or pattern. Once you enter it don't click anything else in that screen. Click the back button and it will be saved.
Screen Lock Activated
Thanks for the help peeps. Got my screen locked by doing as Meth819 mentioned.
first, I am korean. so I am terrible in English.
I have tried various methods to solve wifi freeze on screen turn off.
but any method did not succeed.
but I found that the problem does not occur when streak connect with power cable.
so I have tried to produce similar effects when streak does not connect with power cable.
I use tasker and secure settings for this. (rooting is required.)
and I finally solved the problem.
follow this step.
1. you have to install tasker and secure settings apps.
2. run secure settings and click "Helper is not installed" to install helper.
3. run tasker and click + button on the bottom to create new profile.
4. choose first context > State > Power > Power(Source : any, Invert : check)
5. click New Task > name : any text or blank > click + button to create action.
6. choose Plugin > Secure Settings > Edit > choose Wake Device
7. select Wake Type : CPU Awake Only, select Duration : Manual On
8. click menu button and save.
9. close create task window.
10. long press the first context to create second context.
11. click Add > State > Net > Wifi connected.
12. long press the task to create exit task.
13. click Add Exit Task, and follw the same from 5~9 but select Duration : Manual Off.
now, your streak is solved the wifi problem.
enjoy the streak.
How does this affect your battery life, since it sounds like it keeps the device from going to sleep.

Hi Guys
Over the last couple of days I've been having problems with my screen jumping a little bit when i either close an app (with the exception of chrome) to return to the home screen or if I'm in the settings and i go back a page (it jumps every time i go pack a page).
If leave the phone in sleep mode for a while, when i unlock it everything works ok for the first 5-10 seconds and then it goes back to jumping if i close an app....etc
I've been doing a bit of googling (is that a word....lol) and there's a few people with the problem but i cant find any fixes.
I'm guessing that it could be that something on the motherboard has overheated but this is just a guess.
If anyone has any ideas then please let me know ?
Also I've found a temporary cure for when it happens when i close an app by installing nova launcher and going into the “look and feel” settings and enabling “slide Up” under the “App Animation” setting.
But does anyone know of an app that will allow me to change the transition effects of windows ?
Thanks guys

you've said that you have nova launcher installed...
nova settings > desktop > scroll effect (premium version offers more transition effects)
also, go to device settings > developer tools > and set animation scales to 0.5 instead of 1
if you don't have developer options under device settings, do the following:
1. open settings menu
2. go in "about phone" submenu
3. there go in "software information" submenu
4. click 7 to 8 times quickly on "build number"
5. developer tools should now be showing just above the "about phone” in settings
DO NOT change anything else there besides that animation scale values
Thanks for the reply
Yes i have nova installed and i have it set on cube but thats just for the home screen.
What i need is an app that will let me change other screens.
For example the screens in settings.
The strange thing is that the screen only seems to jump when im going back (i think its the zoom out effect).
Ive just found an app called xuimod that u think has the oprion i need.
Ill post back if it works
Well guys....
It turns out i can do everything with xuimod so i dont even need to keep nova.
But i dont think this fix is going to last if the jumping gets worse.
So is there any known fix for the jumpy screen ?
Anyone ?
Its like a VERY mild form of whats happening to this guys phone:
