key lock software for sx66?

hi guys,
i'm looking for a program for my sx66 that will allow me to lock the hardware keys and screen when i place it in it's holster. i have tried screenlock 1.2 and mortsaver but they don't seem to work.
anyone know of any programs that do this?
thanks!

try settings ->system ->button lock
it is already build into windows

Isn't that designed for only when the phone is turned off? I'd like to keep the phone on and lock the keys.

The phone will keep functioning with keylock on just lock the keys and give yourself a call from another phone , you'll see it works

Doh! Why didn't I think of that?
You are referring to toggling the keylock on from within the programs, not pressing the power button (which I assume does power the unit off), correct?
Thanks.

The power button does not power off the unit, it just turns off the screen or if you hold it for a few seconds, it turns off the backlight.

you may try Start->Settings->Personal->Password along with Button Lock in the System Settings. This will have your keys completly locked.

Thanks guys. That will do what I need.

I think that mortsaver is sort of a work in progress. There is a beta that works way better, but the only place I've found it is here not on any website:

You can get the latest beta from the last or second to last page, but you might want to read the entire thread to get an idea of how to use the program. I think it will soon be a killer app up there with pzp

[Q] Atom Life wake up with other buttons

I used to have an XDAII (the very first) where the unit could be woken up by pressing any button. There was a setting in the control panel that allowed you to set it to only recongnize the power button or have the other buttons wake it up. Naturally I set it to the power button, but after a while, that button got worn down and stopped "working" so I naturally set it to recognize any other button.
This experience has taught me the hard way, that its a good choice to have (or maybe even a necessity in some cases) that other buttons to wake the unit up in case of situations like this.
I've just bought an Atom life and unfortunately it ONLY recognizes the power button to wake the unit up. Is there any hack or software out there that could enable the other buttons (or better yet, allow selection of which buttons can turn the unit on)?
I'd like to use the large middle button on the front if possible, since that button seems more "sturdy" than the power button. I may be able to save that poor power button from years of wear and tear.

just realized i posted in the wrong section. Moderators, feel free to move it to the parent Atom section, and my sincerest apologies

Hi, nargalzius
I have been search for decade, but i still cannot find the way to assign other button for waking up da device......

same problem here...
anybody out there figured this one out already?

bump
did anybody find a hack for this?

I have just the opposite problem. I use the headphones that come
with the Atom Life - the button on it not only turns on the device.. if
you bang the mouth piece on something (without hitting
the button), it turns it on too!! I'd love a solution to that

I use O2 Flame and got the same setting, no other hard key than the power button can wake up the device from sleep. Anyone knows the tricks or registry hacks, please share. Thank you very much.

Atom Life Wakeup Button
Hi guys, there doesn't seem to be an answer on here and I assume the reason is as follows - Atom Life also wakes up by pressing the "end" key... (I think this is a general hardware setup)
I was also a bit weary of the power button being worn out, so I did some experimentation and found that the end button works a treat if you have the same concern "end - s2u"... swweeet!
Hope this helps.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You mean when the phone is in standby mode and you press the END key, the phone will come out of standby? Beats the whole purpose of standby then

I do echo the same "problem" of not being able to change the mapping of the power button to the front button.. ( as I was able to do with my XDA II)
I 'm confused about the "end" key solution..
Anyone finding a solution ?
Thank you all

Nearest program might be MORT saver? it allows you to specify the button that put the device in to MORT stand by and therefore the same button that will awake the device. Not exactly the power button option that you talk of wanting but at least MORT also stops the device from waking up when any of the buttons around the action button are pressed.

Disable directional pad

I have an issue, i have the htc wizard running windows mobile 5, left on the directional pad doesn't work when its pressed, but more often than not when you open anything it'll act as if its being pressed constantly, what i'm wondering since i attempted to take it apart and just didn't feel comfortable continuing to that point is, is there a way to just disable that button like in the registry, or if there's a plugin of some kind that allows for advanced button management? thanks

Nevermind, was able to find one, thanks

Lock all buttons except power button ?

I have recently upgraded frm wm 6.1 HTC Tytn II to HTC Touch Pro 2 6.5
I like the new phone but I do not like 6.5 operating system.
The biggest thing that annoys me is that my my 6.1 had "key lock" in settings.
This allowed me to turn on the device by pressing a button other than the power button. I can't do this in 6.5. I dont even have the option. I have to press the power button everytime to wake up the phone. Can someone out there please help me!!! Is there a fix for this somewhere in the registry? If not,
i might consider going back to my solid and more stable kaiser.
Look forward to hearing from you

I think that this program will do the trick. It will let you remap all your hardware keys to the action that you want.

[Q] Serious help with HTC touch pro 2

I've got a HTC touch pro 2,
running on windows mobile 5.7 or some,
I wanted to upgrade it to windows mobile 6.5
and downloaded the install program from the htc website,
I plugged my htc tp2 in to my pc and synchronized it,
I walked trough the install program and it started with upgrading it,
20 seconds later, when it was on 8% with upgrading,
the program gave an error and quit the upgrade..
I turned my phone off, when i turned my tp2 back on,
it gave the 3 coloured screen and won't do anything anymore.
I tried to hard reset it but that didn't help either..
Can someone help me with this problem?
Kind regarts,
Stijn

Try to re-download the 6.5 upgrade from htc to your my documents folder. Then reboot your pc and after it boots make sure firewall & anti-virus software and any other unnecessary programs are running.
Then pull the battery of your TP2 to turn it off. Wait a few seconds. Then replace the battery. Then press and hold volume down and while holding volume down button down press and hold power button until rainbow bootloader shows. Connect your USB to your TP2 and your PC. Then click on the exe rom update you downloaded and follow the directions.

Another way to hard reset your device...
With the phone turned OFF, press CALL & END CALL buttons simultaneously. Keep pressing these 2 buttons, briefly press power button and keep pressing CALL & END until you will see a message saying to press Volume UP in order to hard reset your device. Do as it says!
