Does anybody know if there exist an application which lets the device automatically turn off only in Today Screen. Or better, if it can specify for the device the running applications during which it should not automatically turn off. Thanks in advance, regards.
I'm using Miri WM 6.5 Manila 2.5 REV 6.
If I go to Start -> Lock, it works fine. But for Auto Lock (Settings -> Lock) it requires specifying PIN.
Is there a way to use Auto Lock in WM 6.5 without entering PIN/password to unlock?

Did you try HDTweak yet? It has a setting for autolocking.
I have tested it and it works however, on mine there was a strange issue with the backlight where it wouldn't turn on after unlocking. I had to turn off the screen and then turn it on, then the backlight would come back. It's only a minor issue, but if you can live with it it'll be fine.

Many thanks. But I did not use HDTweak AutoLock option because of that very issue .
Don't understand why MS doesn't implement this simple functionality.

Hmm... give Slide2Unlock a try. It supports autolock, but it's also a separate app which means using it will cost you more memory than the built in lock. But if you are in desperate need for this functionality, give it a try and it might just work for you.
I believe the newest version is S2U2.
Hallo,
I use this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542482
May be it works with WM 6.5 as well

Its not the best solution, but a way round this is to stop your phone light going to dim in the power settings. Just have the screen turn off after 2 mins or so instead. This way the screen never goes dim therfore never stays dim!
Use this app. It overcomes the dim light issue. First go back to HD Tweak and DISABLE the lock on screen dim.
Install the cab and then go to Settings\System\Smartlock and tick the Dim lock or Suspend lock options. The screen will then autolock on dim or on pressing power and there are no problems with the light on unlocking.
Thanks everybody. I'll try.

Unfortunately the Incall lock (presuming it is for incoming calls, because there is Outcall lock that should be for outgoing calls) does not work. The hardware buttons still answer/reject the calls which can be a problem while pulling the phone out of the pouch .

Have a look at phonealarm

For me, it handles locking and unlocking, supporting the stylus, profiles, location based functions and many more.
Another alternative is S2U2

Hello. Just want to ask someone,how can I stop automatic rotation of the screen contents while I slide out the hw.keyboard? Is it possible indeed? It doesn't matter which device,I never get a solution to stop it. Please don't ask me,why I want that,simply I just hate it and want to disable this "feature". Currently I am using Raphael.
Thanks in advance for any tips.
An app that can block auto-rotating & enable auto-rotate without slideouting the keyboard would be very very great.
I'm running the 24/10/2012 dated version of Cyanogenmod 10 with my nexus 7, and I can't make the screen rotate to landscape mode in the desktop. Auto-rotate is enable, even for lock screen, which seems to go to landscape mode without any problem. Same for the setting screen.
The only way it works is when I use an app. I checked Google to find a solution, but all I saw is "Enable auto-rotate and it should work". Not for me though.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Have you enabled auto rotation in settings/accessibility?
Sent from my Nexus 7
Yes
A reboot would do the trick i had rhe same problem
Hello, I have some questions:
(1) Is there a way to stop the EPD from autorotating to portait when you lock the screen?
(2) Is there a way to change the EPD lock timeout? I have "YotaMirror Sleep" set to 30 minutes but that's way too short...

Unfortunately, it doesn't work on Android 6
Does anybody know any other decision of the problem with the back-screen time out?

As stated, this only partly worked for me, but it probably depends on which app you are using.
