TouchLockPro is a general purpose locking program, which also works on the Touch HD.
See TouchLockPro thread for more details.
Version 2.0
I uploaded version 2.0, which fixes some (small) issues and added some features, like unlocking when sliding the keyboard out (if available). See Version 2.0
[APP][Updated 11-01-2009] TouchLockPro version 2.1
I just uploaded TouchLockPro version 2.1. Hope this version is again more perfect.
TouchLockPro is indeed great. However, on the HD, I find its use limited, as there is no good unlocking mechanism in place. I keep it installed for the BattClock, but I simply can't get comfortable with having to pull out the stylus to unlock, or wave the phone in front of a light source. (The HD light sensor doesn't seem very reliable.)
Heck I admit it, I often surf with Opera in bed, in the dark - the stylus is the only unlocking option, and it annoys me.
If TouchLockPro could get a touch gesture unlock, like PocketShield or ThrottleLock, I'd be happy. There doesn't even have to be a UI - as long as it's fast and reliable.
ThrottleLock appears to late (I can interact with the screen before the ThrottleLock asks for the gesture), otherwise it would be mighty fine.
PocketShield is much better in this respect. I just can't get it to work comfortably with answering the phone. I've hung up on so many calls now, unintentionally, that my wife told be to FIX IT.

Indeed my next highest priority is implementing a gesture to unlock using the GSENSOR, which was already on the TODO list. You could consider to use LockTouchPanelOnly=1, so the hardware keys are not locked and couple a command to a hardware key: "TouchLockAction.exe" unlock. Of course there is a chance that the hardware buttons are pressed in that case, when it is in you pocket. Other people using TouchLockPro in combination with Phone Canvas. They use TouchLockPro for general locking and unlock the phone automatically by TouchLockPro when there is an incoming call: commandCallIncoming = "TouchLockAction.exe unlock"
TouchLockPro 2.2.1 with GSENSOR support for unlocking
I just uploaded TouchLockPro 2.2.1 with GSENSOR support for unlocking.
TouchLockPro version 2.3
TouchLockPro version 2.3 is available.
Hi,
This seems to be a great app. But I have a serious problem.
Right after installation I get the messages
“ a problem has occurred with touchlockpro.exe”
And then after a soft reset the messages
“ Could not create TouchPanel Hook.“ Comes up and the application fails to start.
.
Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

Hi Henk,
which version did you install? the latest version 2.7.3?
I did not get this problem report from other users, and there are a lot of Touch HD users. You can try to set DoubleTouchPanelLock = 0, because some people have problems with this setting.
The "Could not create TouchPanel hook" message means that some other program is running which applies the hook before TouchLockPro can. Which Today screen do you have, TF3D?
You can also enable debug logging LogDebug=1 and post the debug log file \TouchLockPro.log.txt as zipped attachment. Maybe that gives me a clue
Hi,
Wow, quick response. I appreciate it!
Where do I set the “DoubleTouchPanelLock = 0”?
The only application that start up with the phone is TF3D.
I think you might be right, some other application is interfering. Can it be TF3D?
I’ve seen now that I can access the application after start-up from the application menu. It still gives me an error but I can use it.
This is a fantastic application, I will defiantly donate so soon as finances permits
MOD EDIT
Moved to Themes, Applications and Software forum
Hi,
I have Hard Reset my device and installed TouchLockPro. It work perfectly.
Must have been a application somewhere that was the culprit
Thank you

Hi Henk,
good to hear that your problem is solved
*NEW* Zoombar unlocking also working on HD???
TouchLockPro version 2.9 now also has a *NEW* Zoombar unlocking. I expect this is also working for the HD. Could someone confirm it is actually working Because I cannot test on HD.
My expectation is that it works also on HD, because it works on Touch Pro 2 and Diamond 2.
I couldn't get the zoom bar working on the Touch PRo 2... I know it wasn't the question asked but worth mentioning.
some of the functionality seems not to work on the touch pro 2 with the telstra roms.
Till now i have found just about everything in xda! Even a similar thread for the same problem but no solution at all!
Thing is, my hd takes too long to wake up for an incoming call..resulting in missed calls all the time..Ring starts in about 3,5 tones..!!! It wakes almost instandly (backlight) but it takes a lot of time to draw the picture etc and THEN starts ringing..
[i am on MIRIS V18 wm6.5, using the default WM dialer with the sliders (not htc's one!) and csdev for autolocking after wake up]
I had similar problems in many roms, even 6.1 .. with the fastest one being 1,5 tone then ring.. Its allready too long for me! I have tried some tweaks, i am not using mp3 for ringtone, using instant ring from hdtweak and no ring delay setting etc..still no luck..
What can be done? I know that many users have the same problem, even with stock roms.. Its same for such a device to be able to do everything sooo sweat but not the phone function!!
So any special tricks?? (font, gdi cache etc settings?) i heard that with sktools and advanced configuration tool etc you can do actually much about that!
Feel free to post your experinces as well, hoping that someone can provide us with a solution or a worthy workaround..!!
I've got the same problem, always have to call people back. Mostly takes about 5 seconds before the answerbutton works, while ringtone is already pissing off the other passengers in the bus
I still think the slow buildip is caused by Wisbar Advance, I used the HD Tweak aswell.
Very Good POST yes you are right many peoples have the same problem i have the same problem!
So i try with HD tweak "Ring without delay" i try with Advanced config and etc Again the same really when someone ring me no matter from the ringtone or anything the phone start ringing after few seconds!
I make few test and what i saw is that if the phone is sleeping when someone call you take longer your phone to wake up and ring
then i try again with no sleepy phone, again ring with delay so i can say if the phone sleep he need few seconds to ring like 5 seconds if the phone not sleep he need 3-4 seconds But at all This is serious problem and maybe is time we to fix this!
I don`t see any point this device to be able to do so much things and we always to Upgrade them but the phone function that we use everyday to make us troubles!
I have this problem with the stock room when the phone was brand new, after i flash the phone with Davideuck V 5 have the same and now im with Davideuck v7 and again is the same ! so no matter what kind of room or radio version you use this problem is real... and really the phone ring with DELAY
Will be perfect if anyone can find desigion of this problem and our phones to start ring immediately without any delay !
Thanks
I have been struggling for months with well-known this 2-sec (far more than this !) delay. The HD tweak didn't work for me either. Furthermore, it has been reported that even if this setting is changed, it is self-reset after a soft reset !
The only solution I found is replacing the HD Caller ID with the WM default one. It is very ugly compared to the modern HTC one, but now my phone takes only 1 sec to respond, that is, wake up, show the Caller ID screen and start ringing.
This replacement can be done from the settings of the HD tweak.
Please let me know if this works for you ! I'm running stock ROM.
Yes if we use the default WM dialer the PHONE is very very fast and ring without ANY delay but its very UGLY so maybe the problem is in the dailer!
Like i say no matter what room you use yes its the same for me with the default WM and the phone just think faster than me
Maybe some programers must to chek this out why this heppand maybe the HD dialer is too heavy?
Yes,thats true! But i am using wm dialer, not htc's one!! Still far from fast..(although i am on wm 6.5 where the default wm dialer with the answering sliders looks awesome, its buggy and slow as hell..[because it needs that the phone is locked in order to run so])
So as i asked around in a major greek forum i have found out that 99% of hd users have the same issue! [that 1% doesn't give a s&@t !]
Here too..What can we do about it..?I am starting to think the 1,5 tone delay as acceptable value..[told you i am on 3+ right now!!] Does anybody know if windows 6.5 that lock with external programm [like csdev] on wake up take normaly so long? Ideas...?
it's always not a good idea to fresh new rom too often

That has nothing to do with the problem man..!
If we could find a way to minimize the load on wakeup!! (so the hd has nothing to load more than the phone function!)is it possible?
Like i told you with the default WM dialer with WM 6.1 the phone ring without delay and is like every normal phone so this mean that the problem is in the dialer..
I think that the HD dialer is too heavy or buggy and this is the reason why take so long to wake up.. the phone!
Maybe some programers must to chek this out what is the diference betwen the default WM dialer and HD dialer we all know what is the diference.. but i mean the diference not how they look like how they are made and all other litle codec files..
So maybe we can find solution to update the HD dialer to be fast as the default WM one..
No matter you are with WM 6.5 and etc.. because till the problem is not solved no matter what room you will use the dialers will be the same made from the same files..
to resolve this we need to know what exactly is the problem to be able to fix it!
Like i say i think that we can find answers in the DIALER but im not programer..
this is very true and this is a very good post gonna supscribe to instant email about it right now ... i think the problem is not only in the dialer i have a stock rom and i had the problem since the very first day but i got a greater delay after installing spb pocket plus while i am not actually using manilla anymore and even a greater delay after installing wisbar advance 3 ... maybe the solution would be in the processor priorities i dont know
So far, i haven't found any solution .
I already made the same post a few months ago :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3902624#post3902624
there's got to be a way guys!!
Some time ago, both sides recording was a total NO(!) for htc devices!! They say it was HARDWARE ISSUE and nothing could be done!(for over a year+) Then .. ICR and..voila! We even got tmc now! !
Is it possible to have the slugiest of all phones?? no way!
I think is a question of time we to find solution for our problem with the phone ringing delay!
Managed to get it to 1,5 rings in the same situation!( as i described before, no rom change etc..i was on 3,5 + rings remember!!)
I installed advanced config tool and played with the phone and performance settings.. performance almost set to max values..(font cache etc..)
Phone settings no delay, end key delay from 3000ms to 0 etc..(there are some settings there, so be sure to know what you are doing or backup first!)
Think i can get it to 1..!which will be extremely fast from what i experienced so far!!
Note: the improvements are for the second+ call after a softreset! The first one is ALWAYS slugish!!
Hi kostasalfa,
Mind posting your Adv Config settings? Thanks.
After long... long search I found maybe a solution:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Script value to av0pr
I'm going to test but it seems the true way ^^ (thx to AX3L)
D'rath
Ok .. not a "true" solution but got INSTANT ring! (before the end of the first tone!!)
As i said i was on wm 6.5 using the kinda buggy default lock etc...After my advan.config setting which was an improvement i did the following! Stopped csdev and so the deafult lock! I did go back to S2U2 !! (warning,important: set delay after wake up to 300 or better 400 ms!!) And then i tried resco contact manager!(again!) But there is a new beta free for all of you in their forum!( http://www.resco.net/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=24957 ) Set it to HANDLE INCOMING CALLS! Soft reset.. and voila!! (install s2u2 in device..resco better in sd!)
As i said..not a true solution but i GOT INSTANT RING!!
DONT FORGET TO USE HD TWEAK TO REVERT TO DEFAUL WM DIALER, NOT HTC;S ONE!!!
Try abd tell me if it worked for you!
i use the new energy rom 6.5 standard hav no problems with ring time or receive any late calls or miss calls u guys must check out the roms before loading them
Thanks for suggesting to try Resco Contact Manager. The new beta version seems to have corrected the incoming call delay. So far, my HD responded just before the first ring ends. Still testing.

Good news! Resco did it i think..
(i may try the energy rom as wingtytn suggested but i dont think its a roms issue..Ps:wingtytn try to call yourself from another phone to see WHEN it starts ringing..if you got no issues i would lke to know!you use wm stadar dialer?etc!)
i just bought a brand new t-mobile htc touch pro 2. and i want the slide to unlock feature like the iphone. but i don't want to change anything else. i just want to be able to slide to unlock my phone can anyone help me out with that for my touch pro 2. thanks
New to WinMo? Everyone knows about S2U2.
Btw, please search before posting. If you Google "slide to unlock", almost all the hits on the 1st page points you towards S2U2.
I've noticed S2U2 scrambled my screen when unlocking my Verizon TP2 in landscape mode with the keyboard open. I have to close the keyboard, rotate the screen back into portrait, and then I can unlock it.
Yea, that happens to me as well. And S2U2 drains battery life like crazy.
put the screen buffers to RAW I've read in the S2U2 thread it works... you might want to search for it.
Putting the screen buffers to RAW fixes it for a short while then the landscape view get messed up again. Putting it back to Direct3D again fixes it for a short time. I am going back and forth between the two settings to keep it working. It really needs a fix from the author.
S
somehow, I doubt that the developers of the S2 apps will look at this thread. Perhaps you are better served if you contact them directly or post in their thread.
I ended up uninstalling it. I really like the app, but after reading it sucks battery life it had to go. I left this morning with a full battery. Wifi/bluetooth are off, I've surfed maybe 5 minutes, sent 6 emails, and about 15 texts and my battery is already down to two bars. Something is draining this thing fast.
disable the digital battery option in the s2u2 settings
thanks for everyones reply i think ima wait until everything is fixed. i love windows mobile, this is my 5th one but my first touchflo 3d. and i'm loving it sofar, anyword on when microsoft will release 6.5 for touch pro 2?

The date appears to be Oct 6th from all the rumors. Btw, it's HTC that's going to be releasing the update for our devices, not Microsoft.
Thanks for reminding me that there is a slide to unlock application...
I was always calling people, because my device unlocked itself.

i have to press the arrow button to slide betwen pages...
That's true. I'll try to make it slide in the next releases.
Can i ask you a question. What phone are you using?
Any feedback would be great!
I like the screen-shots. m testing it. let u know of any bugs with jacks 6.5 rom

i cant slide from one screen to another have to use arrow keys. which are vey small
and when i slide the status bar at the bottom doe not appear on the second or the third screen..

Thank you for testing this out!
I'm releasing the new build anyday now which includes more bugfixes and new functions. Before i release it I'll make sure to adjust it to the 6.5 system.
You said that the arrowbuttons are small, i noticed this last night and I relocated them and made them bigger. I'm trying to add the slide function but don't expect it to work until next month, at least. I also noticed what you told me, that the status bar doesn't appear in the multi-pages, and I'm trying to solve this.
Best regards
Is this a panel? I can't imagine being stuck in a program launcher all day, so I would only use it if it were a panel.

HI Mate, thanks very much for this will try it now
wm5
hi mate, tried this on Windows Mobile 5 device (Imate Jam), I get an unexpected error in iphoneui.exe. The programs asks to quit and restart but get same result every time.
any ideas
Have you followed my instructions?
You may've missed that you need to install the .NET 3.5 version because it uses it.
If that isn't the problem then I don't, sorry. please reply and tell me if you solved it.
But my advice for you is to download the .NET 3.5 from my homesite.
Hello Guys I have been on this site Forever and have never needed to ask a question because it seems like you guys beat me to it. But I just Downloaded the UPGRADE for Sprint touch pro 2 and I have some concerns. I love the new layout but Is there a way someone could give me the old contact layout on the 6.1 I like how it looked and it placed everything in alphabetical order and it just seemed cooler(I know I know) 2nd thing is there anyway we can change the background on all the tabs like the 6.1 HD wallpaper cabs? Thanks Guys
I'm with U on this. I like the people tab layout on 6.1 from the raphael (touch pro) devices as well. It has that Rolodex swiping motion/animation like u would in the photos tab. I've searched around to see if anyone has done this yet to no avail...
