On my wife's HD mini it seems to be impossible to save playlists in Windows Mediaplayer. The procedure is fine until the moment where you should type the playlist name - there is a "Cancel" button but no "Done" or "OK".
try the back arrow..sometimes works as ok button

try S2u2.
Do a search - there are a few similar discussions!
i like the pocket shield on my touch hd -> http://pocketshield.netserver01.com/
I´ve tried S2U2 on my Wizard with some strange problems like Battery drain etc. Pocketshield works so far, but i loved the simplyness of DeviceLock.
Isn´t there any way to lock the device on wake up? Pocketshield shouldn´t be the last fix for this problem....
PocketShield is the best for the HD.

What version?
I´ve tryed aout Phoneshield, but i wasn´t that surprised of it. Now i´ve tryed This:
Goto registry:
HKEY_CurrentUser\ControlPanel\Backlight\[AutoDeviceLockEnable set to 1]
HKEY_CurrentUser\ControlPanel\Backlight\LockLevel\[LockLevel set to 1]
That works for me without installing any Software

ah that's fine thx
I would to know one thing, I see two different key to lock the phone:
AutoDeviceLockEnable
LockLevel
why? isn't enough only one of them? for example backlight lockenable?
pls explain to me what exactly these 2 keys so
quick question :
which registry entry governs the backlight display on the lock screen,
at the moment i've got the phone dimming after 30 seconds, then it locks and the light comes back on. for about 30 seconds. ideal the lock screen would be illuminated for about 10 seconds then blank the screen.
What reg entries do i need to set to sort this out ?
answers appreciated.
many thanks.

am I missing a trick here, doesn't pressing the 'end call' button lock your phone with out the need to install extra software ????

by default yes, but you can amend the function of the long key press if you like via the buttons menu in further options.
i've got mine killing off connections data/phone, for example with the power button at the top locking the phone.
works for me.
Hi!
I'm still struggeling to find the right way to lock the phone. The ideal solution would be to:
1) Have the phone unlocked when I switch it on with the Power button (so that I can immediately use it after deliberately turning it on)
2) Have the phone automatically locked when it wakes up due to a phone call or SMS (so that I don't press anything by accident when it is in my pocket).
This seems to be the only really logical way to use device lock. Can this be done?
Regards!
But PocketShield doesn not meet my requirements (see above post). It's just another regular device lock app without the possibility to disable the device lock when the unit is turned on with the power button.
Regards!
I found the Registry-Hack Solution is the better way, just my opinion. But can somebody tell me which reg-value must be edited to avoid locking with end-call button? I don´t want to lock my device in this way, i want to end Data connections with long pressed end-key.
easy
1) scroll along to settings
2) hit 'all settings'
3) select 'personal' tab
4) select 'buttons' icon (top left)
5) get your stylus out
6) on the buttons screen, hit the arrow on the bottom right until you can see the "end key" section. hit that.
7) in the options listed, select "automatically execute selected action" and underneath this select " terminate data connection"
8) hit the OK button (top right) and bob your dads brother, you can now terminate data calls via the long press call cancel key.
nice one.
Thx for that.....

Locking won't work unless you go to start, Lock, then the mail and locking via the power button will work again.
That's what i meant. Start->Lock and then unlock and open email.
Not power button to turn off the screen and power button to turn it back on
Anyway, i hope it helped.

I just thought an explanation was needed. You can imagine the response would have been "but it doesn't lock when I press the button"

Is there any other way to go from Android to WinMo different than pressing the HD2 reset button?
Thanks.

No. The phone needs to reboot in order to load Windows which is no longer running when you run Android.
Thanks for the quick answer. I know the phone has to reboot, I meant if there is any way to trigger the reboot other than pressing the reset button under the battery cover.
For example, on WinMo there are many aplications that allow you to soft reset, is there any app that do the same thing on Android?
Thank you.
Yeah, just search the market for reboot applications.
But did you know that you can just hold down the end-call button instead?

I know it now!!! : ) I tried that once with one of the first android's builds and it didn't work so assumed end-call button didn't had that function on Android. THANK YOU!!!

You're welcome mate
SOLVED: I edit the Generic.kl file
You basically just change WINK from key 703 to MEDIA_NEXT
I have a rooted S8 with Ambasadii Rom installed, fully removed Bibxy, so the bixby button does nothing.
Is there a way to remap that button so it skips to next song and goes back if you double tap it?

And i can't connect to the pc at the moment
Just connected it and ran the adb commands and all went great. But the button doesn't work,
theres a popup saying i need BixbyVoice Enabled .. I dont have anything Bixby-related as i said before :/
Hello all, I just joined the forum and what a great resource. I've been reading through the posts but haven't been able to figure out why I cant install apk files. I've enabled apps from unknow sources but the install button is still greyed out. I just got a Fire HD 10 (7th Generation) and haven't been able to side load any downloaded apk files. I've only loaded one app (VLC) through the amazon app store, would love to load chrome and other apps.
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Rob

Thank you!
I found and easier way. When you see the greyed out install button, press the square button next to the circle home button. Then just click back to the install screen. Doing that will remove the greyed out install button. Just click install!
Duece solution works for my profile, but not for my kids'. Kids profiles do not have the square button.
I want to install some apps for them. Installing from apk used to work. Now no longer.
Kinda wack solution but saved me a ton of time, can't thank you enough!!

ditto! Thanks alot and works like a charm!
It seems that if you install a .apk over a file manager, Amaze in my case the button is not greyed out
Edit: Seems like this only helped for apps that I tried to install after downloading via the browser
