hi,
does anyone know how i can set it so the screen auto locks after a given amount of time or is there a freeware app that can do this please. because i rather have it that having to remember to press the power button to lock everytime, sometimes i might forget.
cheerz,
snoop
Lock the Screen? Power-Button simply switches the Device of, e.g. the screen. In Power Management you can set a Device timeout in Battery Mode and on AC Operation. This is equal to pushing the Power Button
I think i see the problem, or i'll tell my problem with that issue...
When you push the power-button the screen turns off and is locked, but if you receive a sms or so, the screen returns back on and is not locked...
ok ye i think u get my point.
i dont know about screen lock after receiveing sms or call.
but i c the point of samson, pressing the power botton does lock the screen.

look for deviceock or vj devicelock.
There is a today-application called BatteryStatus. With its help you can lock the device automatically when it is shut down. Does the job for me - of course you allways have to unlock the device after turning it on.

If you had bothered typing 'BatteryStatus' into Google you'd have seen it was the first hit. Establishing it is the right program is simply a case of reading the web page. Why are people so goddam lazy these days?
yes ok i get your point. sorry.
right i have installed. lots of nice options and things. but have little problem now. As we knw the device has the function where as the backlight will turn off after a set amount of time. Mines set to 30sec for battery power and 1min for external power.
After 30secs (using battery) it does its job and turns off the backlight. Normally i would press the power button and device turns back on. HOWEVER! since installing batterystatus the device just wont turn back on. I mean its got enough battery, i can tell this because 1) the light at the top flashes 2) Heres the strange thing , the only way i seem to be able to waking the device from backlight is by pluging in the usb cable.
So i thought i would try and un-install the app see if that would help..but nope that didnt help because it still does the same thing.
After installing the app i did a soft rest. I thought it might help, but it didnt. This is the other thing, once i did this, i see the t-mobile splash screen where shows the ROM and other info. And then i just goes blank for a while....and then i see the T-mobile PIN entry keypad splashing by every few secs. I was only able to by pass this after trying and trying to enter pin number on a black screen.
Do you think i should do a hard-rest? Dont really want to do this. Means i have to re-install my little apps and contacts, email settings etc etc.
Can anyone help me with this problem please??
Hi there, i had quite te same problem, after a soft reset the backlight turns on until the bootup screen dissapears, then the screen seems to be blank, but it shows everything, but without the backlight on. You have to point a light onto the screen and you can hardly see wats on it.
Then go to the backlight settings and turn it up.
Then you have to look at every program, thats adjusting the backlight settings and turn of automatic darken screen or so in the program.
That helped for me.

WOW great i thought it was just me *phew! lol*. Thats excatly what is/was happening to me but....
this app just gets stranger and stranger.

And :S stranger thing was that the problem didnt happen this time, i saw the t-mob splash screen, saw the windows mobile green splash screen and then my keylock and then pin number screens.
hmmmm no idea wots that was all about. but hey its all working K.O so im happy now. just got to fiddle with the settings now
Thanks againt to everyones help. Appercaited

Hey everyone,
I am having issues with my TP2 screen turning back on to easily and consequently lots of things get pushed in my pocket, and emails sent etc hahaha.
Like it only takes a brush over the power button to turn it on and this happens just about every time it goes into my pocket or pouch.
Is there some way to get the keys to lock when i turn the screen off?
I have noticed on long end key press there is a lock function, but this seems to have unlocked itself a couple times in my pocket.
What can i do? this is starting to annoy me.
Thanks
Buy a case
you can set it to lock when you set the sceen off. But still it will be the same lock screen.
there are nummerous apps for a alternative lock screen, there are at least four threads about it. I suggest you search in this forum and the forum rhodium software
Would like to give you some links, but I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Thanks mate,
I will try searching a bit better, what i was searching before wasnt giving me anything.
Cheers
Does S2U2 work on the TP2? I use it on my Kaiser and very much like it.
Andre
I have always used the WM built-in password lock - set to 1 minute, the whole thing is locked, on any device.

As for the windows mobile lock, i cant get it to go when i hit power, and its usually as im putting it straight into the pouch after that it happens, so this doesnt work to well

You have to set the time to 0 (zero) for the power button to work. I myself have been trying some different lockers, i like the Throttle locker which i used on my TYTN II and aslo on my TP2. I didn't like the password lock on the TYTN 2 since it wasn't so finger friendly but thanks to the tip here i will use the password built in with time set to zero so i can power off easy and not let people sneak into my phone.
Hey guys I was wondering if there was a simple way to solve this problem.
For some reason when i press the power key or just open up my phone my screen wont come on. I have to pay around with it a few times to actually make the screen come on. Has any1 else had this issue? If so how did you fix it?
Im using standard firmware, noting custom on my phone at all.
I don't get it man, you say you do press the power button and it doesn't come on? when I first got my Tmo TP2, I was baffled at how to get it on, but just pressing the power button at the top once was the only way to do it for me..maybe you're holding it down to long when you press? I'm not sure..did you do the upgrade to Tmo's official 6.5??

What about when you pull the stylus out when the screen is off? Same delay? If so, then the source of the issue is related to the phone's response, not the switch method (top button, slide switch, stylus switch).
Im using the updated window 6.5 and im not holding the power button to long. IDK whats wrong with it. As for when i pull the stylus out, i never really used that method to make my screen come on. I just tried it adn it worked. but im not sure if it will continue to work. I will use just that method for hear on out to see.

Yeah, I never really use it that way much (if ever)...but that's probably the best way for now to try to isolate the issue
Ive tried the stylus thing for a while now and like the power button it doesnt work all the time. Im not sure if the phone is just broke what.
Install process manager and list what processes and applications you are running...
ok, has anyone else noticed this problem,
sometimes i switch my phone off to save battery and it will switch itself on in my pocket so i need to check every now and then to see if it is really off, however, the only way to switch the screen on is with the power button so if my phone was really off then i have to let it start up and switch it off all over again.
i'm going to have a look for a way to remap the buttons without root as i cant get unrevoked to work and i cant be bothered to go about it the long way
hmm im not sure if this is the same issue, but sometimes the keys on my desire are on with the screen being turned off, im not sure if it happens on its own or what, not a big deal really

I noticed this, it is very annoying!
What ROM are you using? I use DeFrost 2.3 and you can bring the phone out of standby by pushing the trackball button. A second push unlocks the phone.
I dont understand this. If the phone is on, a single short press of the power button will light the screen. If it's off, it needs a long press to turn it back on - therefore it's pretty easy to tell the difference

Mine is unmodified and i'm not planning on changing that until HTC stops issuing updates. Sounds like a good feature though, bit of an oversight on the phone that.

Yes, any sort of press turns the phone on.

Careful, it may burn the LED out if you keep it constantly on.
rofl. this burn stuff is constantly floating aroung and is still crap.
why do you think, they enable the led while charging? because it is likely to burn?
who ever brought that up .......

I agree, I think the only LED to be worried about having on for long periods of time is the SUPER BRIGHT Camera Flash LED. It's obviously a different LED than the charging/notification ones, and snudel makes sense when he says that it's enabled while charging.
snudel, do you have a link for this blue LED app? I don't even think I've ever seen the blue LED on my Desire glow, but it would be neat to have it lit when the phone is "awake".
Cheers!
you can download a blue led app here:

Hey guys i was wondering if you guys know why my phone its not locking it self, what im saying is that every time that im not using the phone, the screen goes black like always does but when i press the unlock button the phone is in the main screen not the unlock screen mode. i have to press the button twice so that i can see the normal unlock screen. Is there something i need to change on my settings?
Im running Embryo 6.3 and did all the fixes and its running great. Just the unlock screen not working like it should
