I have a WM app that i need to keep running when the phone goes to sleep. I have read that i need to set power mode to unattended so it will keep running, problem is im using vb; and i carnt find any examples of it in vb form.
just wondering if any one can help me out a little...
iv managed to set unattended mode in my app, but the code still doesnt run when the power button is pressed or the screen times out...any ideas?

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
i was wondering if it was possibloe to switch of and on flight mode using a button. couldnt find this option. the significance of this is that those who have dual sims can switch between networks easily. i know there are today profile manager avilbale like phonealarm and zenphone but i dont see a point using them as they just clogg up my today screen. im just trying to keep as little aplications on there as needed. someday ill get myself to remove pocktplus if i can find a good close program. ive tried magic button and battery pack both are no where close.
I use tel-on-off.exe from www.freecabs.de, a very small util. I bound it to a hardware button using AEBPLus, found on this forum. When I now press the calendar button twice, the phone radio shuts down and I go into flightmode. Pressing twice again reactivates the phone and shuts flight mode down.
You can also find a flight mode switcher on the site of Crino, who made Call SMS Blocker. You can find that thread with his homepage link on this forum.
That link doesn't seem to be working, try this one! http://www.inntalinfo.de/apboard/useraction.php?action=get_upload&id=252
thanks found tel.on-off.aebplus caused a mess with my phone last time so not installing that. another question i have is..
how do i display on today screen which operator is being used at present. (i.e. when i switch from orange to o2 it should show me on screen in big leeters)
Use pocketzen. gives u a lot of functionality

Hi
I am not able to get the device to go into sleep mode (blank display) by touching the power button unless its at the lock screen. Depressing the power button does nothing, other than to activate the quick menu unless pressed for a few seconds. The only time I am able to get the device to sleep via the power button is when the screen has timed out (based on settings) and before the screen in unlocked, otherwise I just have to wait for the screen to timeout.
I cant seem to find anything that would prevent the device going to sleep via the power off button, any suggestions?
Does this happen all the time or only while the phone is charging, as there is a setting that keeps the screen awake while the phone is charging:
Settings>Applications>Development
happens all the time, and I am aware of the stay awake feature during charging
If you're using a custom rom it may have something to do with that. Maybe the key isn't mapped or set correctly. Other then that, that's a pretty odd issues.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sounds like some buggy program is keeping a wake_lock longer than it should. (The way games and ebook readers keep the screen lit/phone awake).
Had you installed anything new before this started?
Hello im looking for simple app if anyone cancreate this will be awesome.
There already have many free litle apps that Turn your Screen OFF but.. they only Turn the screen backlight off and your device is not really into sleep mode.
My sugesstion is if someone can create a simple light Sleep Model Togler we can install it and assing some of the softkeys to SLEEP and when you press it just the device go into sleep mode.
So this will be good because you dont need anymore to press all the time the power button if you want your device to sleep, and after long time of using this power button often get broken.. so when we can turn into sleep model by pressing the assigned softkey will be perfect and easy to use with One HAND no need to press the power button anymore.
Im talking about the Blackstone but this app will be usefull for all others too...
P.S Sorry i didn`t know that the app Is Already Avalible and Thanks to virgilp to pointing this out

Hey guys,
Quick prob; tried searching to no avail. My backlight does not turn off anymore unless I press the power key up top after installing the cmwifirouter. I know that when running this program, the backlight does not turn off so that the program can keep running, but I think it messed with something in the registry/settings as it is set to not turn off now unless I press the button even when the app is not up. Has anyone had similar issues such as this?
Also, I tried to search on google if it was possible to run this app while the backlight is off but could not find one either. Can someone kindly point me to the right direction?
Any help is appreciated for these two concerns. Thanks in advance!
Regards,
K
Anyone have a suggestions or tweaks?
Backlight doesnt want to go off when I leave it idle which wastes my battery when someone calls me and I miss it, the light doesnt go off. It also doesnt want to follow the settings I put in the battery settings of turning off in 10 seconds on battery power.
