Keylock - Dash 3G, Snap General

I have the Ozone and I absolutely HATE the built in screen locker!
Are there any third party lockers or anyway for me to change the buttons you press to unlock?
Thanks.

I feel your pain. I had S2U2 working almost perfectly on the Ozone, but reminders (Outlook Calendar sync) did not work correctly. The reminder chime would start then end abruptly and I'd never see the onscreen reminder. Only way for me to dismiss my reminder was to disable S2U2 and wait for the next reminder to pop up. Calendar and E-mail are my two must haves on the phone so I had no choice but to uninstall it. Bummer really.
Ironically, was was looking around tonight for an alternative and ran across this post. If I find anything that works, I'll let you know. But if you don't really care about reminders, I highly recommend S2U2.
It is for touch screen only, but use mymobiler (our mouse emulator) to configure. Then you are good to go. Be sure to disable advanced power options.

How would a slide to unlocker help me on the Ozone?
It's not touch screen.

I use Maniac's Auto Keylock. Has functionality for profiles, notifications, screen saver, etc. Great app. Here's the link (slow site):

Did you read my whole post? I said it worked on the Ozone except for the reminders. You are obviously not going to be able to use the touch screen. That's why you have to use MyMobiler to configure.
Just use D-Pad right to unlock.

Automatic Key lock is certainly not as aesthetic as S2U2, but it works! Perhaps this is not supported, but I can not find the option to password lock the device.

Sure, in Keylock setup, use "device lock".

I hate having to press the center button then the star.
Is there anyway for me to change those keys to the center button then the space bar?
That would be so much better!

Maybe later if people really like it and the project continues it could be
a user setting environment
Work great, just one thing : could be great if the app auto unlock when the phone receive a call (coz the diamond have a nice "slide to answer") and re-lock after the call...

...but the main idea is to prevent users from pressing accidentally the answer/ignore button when an incoming call arrived!
Anyway various ideas comes in mind for new versions
Yes, I know, but it is also very usefull for *just* lock the phone : I play a game, I read my mail, or anything, then I just turn off the phone and *hop* it's locked.
I don't worry if a reminder occur, if the on/off button is push accidentaly, or anything else, because I know that the phone is lock until I do a 45% vertical slide
And cherry on the cake, when I ask myself "what time is it ?", I just have to push a button (otherwise, I need to back to home screen with TF3D)
So if you plan to add a user config system to your app, please put a little "manage incomming call ?" box
getting better and better. after a few days i got unsatisfied with all the oter lock apps. but this is killer.
ps. is there a way to auto unlock for incoming calls? in most of the roms there is the phone canvas slider. that would do the job in that case, too.

Have you install the .NET Compact Framework 3.5 ?
Try a soft reset and execute it again!
i reinstalled netcf and now it works great. thanks.
installed it, runs very nice but unfortunately it makes the reminder and the alarm unusuable when an alarm comes up, the lock screen appears like it should. when you unlock, the message of the alarm or reminder is gone and you have to tap on the top-line icon to get it back also the funktion to let the alarms sound even in vibrate or silence mode won't work no mor... the device only vibrates.....

The last part has nothing to do with the LmL. Maybe some other setting to try ?!?
This is simply fantastic.
I too would like to be able to answer the phone without unlocking it. I would be quite happy with just using the hardware keys on the Diamond which seem to be locked for an incoming call.
Personally, I dont need or want other options - its simplicity is perfect. Something small and light.
perhaps its possible to implement the ability to assign some exceptions for lockmelite, i.e. that it should not lock normal homescreen (when you turn on the device consciously you don't need to have it locked i guess) or even for an upcoming alarm... THEN it really would be a perfect app!
New Release
version 1.2 released!
Enjoy
Hey man, great job!!! I love it
Now we just need an autostart function, hehe

Endkey lock

Is there any way i can shorten the time that long press+endkey takes to lock my htc 3g? I'd like to have 1 sec, not 2 or 3..
i found in HKCU\software\htc\longpressendkey that changing the value you change the function (es 1=airplane mode, 2= lock, and so on), but nothing about the lenght..
cheers everyone!
I dare to say that NO. You cannot shorten it. This sucks big time. I am using a hardware key mapper to assign one of the volume keys to lock the device instead. And there is a REALLY great 3d party locking app out there called Pocketshield. It is cheap and perfect and the latest v3 beta looks even better. All the updates for this app are almost always very handy. This is self-initiative promotion. It REALLY IS GREAT!
Why not use this customised method.. one tap >> locked instantly

Come on no need to apologize... I just mentioned it. BTW maybe someone likes to have the homescreen always there
You can use CSDEVCTRL.
I set it to lock after 10secs of idle time, or right after I press the power button.
So many other options available. Ref: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386451

weirdness on the slide lock

Greetings all.. After installing the Dusk theme, my phone no longer automatically locks when the screen times out. I have to hit the lock button. Any thoughts on this??
The stock lock feature is a part of TF3D. If you're not running TF3D as your Today screen the lock timeout won't function.

I do like S2U2...I've had it on several of my devices but the Imagio is such a memory hog as it is I think S2U2 just adds a bit more bulk than I would prefer. I also tried speedbooster to help but that caused more problems so I had to uninstall.
Other then the text message tap option not working the device runs pretty well...a little sluggish at times but nothing a clean ram won't fix. Just wish I could find a way to fix it!

Wake from Sleep with Trackball?

I don't really like waking from the top button each time. Is there a way to wake from sleep using the trackball? Thanks
I asked the same thing over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621548
Their solution isn't quite as effective, since it doesnt actually lock your device, just lets you turn the screen off without locking so that the trackball functions as an input. I don't like that

I checked, that's not free : (
ScreenModeWidget also works.
So the Lockout-Screen just doesn't come and you can wake up via Trackball.
EDIT:
Oh just saw this was also mentioned in the other Thread, but however it works just fine
But I want the phone to go to sleep so that the batt gets saved.....
Imho the battery is saved this way, too.
Couldn't see any differences with or without activated Lockout-Screen.
The only difference is that you haven't to slide that screen away.
I don't mind the sliding part. Its the pushing of the top button that annoys me...
Hi guys
If anyone is still interested in Keyguard Disabler mail me at keyguardandroid @ mikedg.com and I'll send you a copy.
Just bought it, works great!

Lockbot. Free on the market, too.
Flyscreen - it's free on the market and includes lock screen (custom) widget support. Theme support coming.
As soon as they release a music player widget (using the local player) it'll be a killer.
Trackball, volume or power button will bring up the swipe to unlock screen - and it's got some other useful options.
I have no relation to the developer but think the app is great (although there are still some minor issues).
And it's free...

Enable / Disable fingerprint lock screen quickly via app or widget

I like to leave my phone unlocked 90% of the time.
Does anyone know if there's an exposed module out there that will let me quickly toggle between the swipe (or no lock screen) and the fingerprint lock screen?
Doing it through setting is a PITA when you've got to enter your alternate password every time.
I would like to just be able to lock the phone on a one time basis.
That's a nice idea. May be someone will make it in future..
But for now I think, there's no app or mod available yet.
I think the no lock home xposed module may be suitable for you but it cannot be set to time ulnock only wifi connection, bluetooth device or cell signal. I hope I could help.

Hello,
It's not what you need but a good alternative is to use FingerSecurity from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...fingersecurity-fingerprint-lock-apps-t2818896
which has a widget on/off.
You can set any app to protect (settings as well) by fingerprint security and just active protection by widget.
So your phone won't be locked, but any app of your choice will
Best regards
Franky
someone mentioned before about nfc wearable's for locking and unlock the ngc rings are pretty cheap
would this help:

This is the closets thing I've found that works. Just wish there was a way to "select all" instead of locking app by app.
The location or NFC ones don't work for me...

You really don't need to secure all apps.
Settings, gallery, sms, mail, file manager, all that can explore your phone, really easy to do.

It's a viable solution, just not the most elegant.
I would rather lock the whole phone, but this does the job for now.
Wonder how hard it would be to make something like that?

In fact, I'm really stupid.
The solution you need is here, in front of us
Just protect your home launcher by fingerprints, and use widget on/off on home screen.
When active, and when you'll screen on, your launcher will be protected, so your phone will be "locked"
(Only thing you need to do is to come back on home screen before screen off, if not, last open app will appear if not protected.)
Enjoy
Franky
