hi there
just wanted to know is there any software for unlocking the phone other than pressing power button
i would like to see any gesture based application for key unlocking the phone
There's facial recognition in the market,visadon,I think that's the app. Also blue planet is suppose to release a biometric security app also, but that's something they been saying for a while now
From my fist to your face, enjoy.

Ok im sorry if someones mentioned this already, its just that i noticed it now and thought id let everyone know just incase no ones tripped over the idea.
as we all know, when S2U2 is installed on the diamond, pressing the power button on the top locks the phone and puts it into the slide to unlock interface, however alot of people have noticed that by pressing the home button, it takes you to tflow3d thus the S2U2 lock becomes useless on the diamond as you can easily and accidently press the home key while the phone is in your pocket.
N e ways back to the "revelation",
i was playing around with secondtoday, where i used the standard wm lock, and then pressed the power key to put it into the S2U2 interface, i now realised that the phone was trully locked, and nothing would happen when you press the home key.
n e ways, i just thought wouldnt it be possible to make it so that by pressing the power button, both the S2U2 and wm lock start at the the same time, and then when u slide to unlock the standard wm lock is also disabled.
im sure some1's thought of this, but i just had to share my thought just incase
Or you can use the new 1.13 version of S2U2, I think it solves this?

And you enabled the key lock? It's disabled by default.
I thought the new "Key Hook" feature did it. I don't have a Diamond, so I can't confirm.

Sure I came along this idea long time ago when there are so many other lock programs flowing around.
Technically, there are a few issues:
- the lock & unlock process of S2U2 & the device lock has to be in-sync;
- S2U2 has always be on top of the device lock when locked;
- automate the device lock & unlock (most other lock programs have done this part);
- take care of the CallerID.
Recently this idea came across my mind again, as you said, because of the "Home" button of the Diamond... On the other hand, there is a "long press end key" function in the Diamond for activating the device lock. It looks like very suitable testing bed is right on my hand... so let's see...
P.S. The latest version do try to fix the "Home" button but in another way. You may read HERE for more.
im sure youl figure it out A_C, take your time.
Thanks for what youv done so far
Guys,
Just taken delivery of my first Android handset - nice to be back on here, spent years on here when I ran WM! Anyway, I've been looking for and haven't found an app that'll let me wake the phone by pressing any button, rather than just the power button. Seen stuff for WM, but not Android.
Can anyone help?

to be honest having used the htc hero I was always getting frustrated cause everytime I took out the phone from my pocket I found it had unlocked cause the minute you pressed any of the home search , menu buttons the phone would unlock and it could then even make unwanted phone calls but as for the desire it only wakes when u press the power button which I think is great just my own opinion.
Try this one on the market :
http://apps.doubletwist.com/No-Lock/-2216879159323801559
When you'll hit any key, no more "slide to unlock", phoen wake up direct to home screen
Having used the HD2 I too miss this feature. Not necessarily pressing a key to unlock the device, but simply to bring up the 'drag down to unlock' screen.

Here is this one also - http://apps.doubletwist.com/Screen-ON-widget/6251491150679267019
These 2 apps replace the need to "slide-to-unlock", but wouldn't you still have to press down the "power" button to actually turn on the screen?
I too have found this a little annoying. I think this may be a feature that can be changed once rooting of the phone starts.
Sort of like re-mapping the hardware buttons to where all you have to do is hit the trackpad or MENU button to activate the screen.
Application like this?

No this would be interesting to possibly get for the Desire. Allows you to remap the hardware buttons. Too bad it is -
1 - For the Hero
2 - Requires root
After pressing the power key, mine unlocks by pressing just the menu button as well, FWIW.

For now i've installed MyLock. It removes the lockscreen completely. Now i just press power once.

that's a bonus, thanks.
what would be even nicer would be if the screen woke up (to lockscreen is fine) on a press of any hardware button. guess it'll need root.
just figured out how i am using 2 programs one is nolock and seccond is Widget Locker. nolock wakes up the phone with any key and by default unlocks the phone BUT if you have Widget Locker installed it prevents from unlocking so that way you have your phone with any-button wake and still locked,tested with my LG 2x ,first app is lightweight and dont consume much battery.. i dont know if i made my self clear im italian email me if you want the link or any question

I have the zte blade, but the power key has an issue where it often doesn't respond to pressing and constantly locks and unlocks for no reason!
Is it possible to disable this button and assign the volume up key to do locking and unlocking, or just disable and use the menu key and a lock widget.
It might be possible to remap it for locking & unlocking your phone.
I'd suggest cleaning the power button carefully using a little bit of electronics contact cleaner, then it should be as good as new.

You could use Intelligent Keylock Unlocker from the market.

Hello,
My team lead has a OnePlus two and had a question so I told him I'd find out. He's severely vision impaired and currently using a OnePlus 2 with the latest Oxygen. Something that annoys him is how the fingerprint reader works as a home button because he accidentally bumps into it all the time while using the device. He's currently got the whole thing disabled, however he'd like to use the fingerprint unlock functionality while not enabling the home button. Is there a way to do so?
Thanks
Of Course there is. Go into the button settings where on-screen nav bar is enabled. There will be an option to enable physical home button with on-screen nav bar. Disable it.
How to lock screen with out power button if i install third party applications finger print or iris not working to unlock phone any idea ?
Not sure of your questions? but you can unlock your phone with face recognition or password. I don't know any other way to manually lock the screen without power key, but if that doesn't work, set the shortest timeout, it should lock itself in 30sec. no matter what, if undisturbed. To go to unlock screen without power button, you can press home screen, about 1 cm from the bottom in the center. Hope this is what you're looking for.

In the Galaxy store think it's called smart edge or something... Only one I found that let's you lock and still let's you use fingerprint without using pin/pattern
