[Q] Quick Access - Desire HD General

Hello All,
I don't know if it is the right place to ask, but people here might know everything about Desire HD.
If you want to secure a bit your phone, you can use the schema feature to unlock your phone.
But before this, you must have drift down the little arc at the bottom to unlock the screen.
And before that, you must have pushed the button to see the screen.
So my question is: how can we shorten this and keep some security? In other words, is it possible to bypass the drift down in order to just have to push the button before drawing the schema?
Lim.

Is there anybody who knows if this is possible or not ?

take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9550179#post9550179
there is no solution, but some discussion about possible solutions.

Thanks.
Seems that links turn around and around.
Hope that someone will be able to code some tweak for that.

WM6 Device Lock Filename

Does anyone know the exact name and location of the WM6 device lock file, ie the one where you can either use a simple pin or a complex password to enter your device? I definitely do not mean keylock.exe, as this is the wrong file.
I have searched this entire site using both google search and the normal search and drawn a blank. Also drawn a blank on the wider internet search although I admit my search criteria may be the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

if you can't find an existing app to run that will lock your device, perhaps it would be easier to write your own?
at first glance, it would appear that a call to SHDeviceLockAndPrompt would do what you need
dalelane,
Thanks for this pointer. Interesting thought on writing a bespoke app; however I'm keen to use what's already there.
Problem is I need to ensure that one cannot circumvent the existing lock process when its engaged. At the moment I can do this, which worries me.
Appreciate the input.

Hi
Have you found a Solution?

DanielS,
I went down the route where I made sure I wasn't running any apps that could circumvent the lock and that's about it, really.
I never actually got a direct answer to the original question I posed.

Lock Screen

Hi there,
I believe i have searched everywhere looking for an application to edit Windows Lock Screen but seems not to be there, only this thread is about it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509241 but no results. In fact i just would like to remove curtains but i do not dare to play with .crp files when i do not know what to do.
Anybody knows how?
Thanks,
see my sig.
OK, thanks, time to study it carefully.
Rgds,
an evenings reading and playing, it looks harder than it is. bear in mind it's not complete software, and the reg stuff i can't get to work, but its useful.

[Q] First Load Setup Screen Circumvent?

Has anyone come across or know of a way to get past the welcome screen without activation?
Would love to know this too! There is no way to bring up a dial pad to go the trick for the other Galaxy S devices. There is probably a way to do it through ADB, but I don't know how.

[Q] Locking Devices Down for customization?

Just realized I put this in the wrong spot. Can someone please move this to the right forum category? Thank you!
I hope this is the right spot for this. I've search and so far not found the answer I am hoping to find.
I have a series of GPS devices (Trimble) with Windows Mobile 6.1 on them that I'm setting up for our field crews. I'm in the process of setting them up to be universal in the settings so anyone can grab and use any device without trying to figure out where everything is again.
Is there a way that I can lock down these devices where the field guys can't go back behind me, once I've made them universal, and change everything around? Or do you all have any suggestions on things that may help me with this? I'm thinking along the lines from wallpapers and customizations and even down to changing owner information. I'd just like to keep these similar and not let them get out of control and messy, if you know what I mean.
Thanks in advance for any help!

[Q] Finding right place to mod an app

I hope this is the right place to post a question about modifying an existing app. In the long run, I want to create a Xposed module to do the modification, but to get started I work with modding the decompiled app. The app in question is de.zeit.diezeit.epaper.android, which is a German newspaper reader app (I am not expecting anyone to know it). What I want to do is to get rid of the scrolling animation when reading an article, because I am using this app on an eInk device (Icarus Illumina).
Now my problem is, I don't find a starting point. I have to say I don't have much (read: almost none) experience with writing Android apps (although I have a lot of programming experience otherwise). Thus I have no idea how such an animation would be implemented. I searched for references to the Scroller class and replaced the duration argument of the startScrolling method by 5ms, but this didn't change anything.
Is there any way to run the app in some kind of debug mode to see which methods are called at which time? Another idea how to find the right spot might be the trigger of the scroll: I am using the hardware page turn buttons of the device to scroll down exactly one page. How would this be implemented, what should I search for to find the code that reacts on these buttons? (Also: how can I press these buttons in the emulator?)
I am sorry if I am asking too many noob questions. If there is relevant documentation I have obviously missed, please point me to it. Thank you very much for any help!
Try looking under res/anim*

Hi, very late after the question, but I am considering buying an Illumina XL HD e-reader in order to have e-ink to read newspapers. What has been your experience with your device (which model in particular is it?)? Also, I would like to root it. Do you know if that is possible? Finally, did you manage to modify the app? If so, was it difficult?
Hi, hope you found the solution
