Hi all,
I had quick question around a simple feature my Desire Z had which i think would be really useful to bring to my Galaxy S2.
With the desire, if the phone was locked and i used my swipe pattern to unlock, the phone would remain unlocked for 5 minutes (also had the ability to set the time). So if i was to use my phone, turn the screen off and then go back again the phone would remain unlocked for 5 mins, which was very usefull when i was tracking the football scores every couple of minutes as i didnt have to re-enter the code.
I was hoping there was an app i could install to replicate this function, or maybe it already exists in the settings but i haven't found it yet!
Any advice appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Umar

I want to have pattern lock turned on, but don't want it to ask me every time screen turns off... Ideally I want to be able to set time delay before it asks me...
In 2.1, I used to use Lock Delay...
There's a similar question which I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=718981), but that's for Nexus One.
Not sure if there's any solution for SGS?
Thanks
Sounds like a job for Tasker...
doesn't any one care or know about this?
i'd be interested in this
That would be realy appreciated if someone could come up with something for root user as it seems that Google made it impossible for an app to control the lockscreen in froyo.

you can try my app (DelayedLock) which works fine on my SGS
This may have been asked before, but haven't found any threads on this.
In Gingerbread, when you chose the password unlock option, you got the slide-to-unlock with unlock and silent sliders, and then when you slid the unlock one, you were presented with the password screen. In ICS, you just get the password screen. Is it possible to have both the ring unlock on ICS which leads to the password screen?
Thanks!
newest version of gummy has this feature. Can't say off top of my head where he got it or if he just coded it himself. Might check there first though.

Why the Hell!!! would you want to slide and put in a password every time you use your phone? Coming from an iphone 4 that was the feature I hated the most in GB.
Am I missing something? Please Help me understand why you actually Want That?

Check out the gummy thread, there is a video that may help you understand. Basically, it allows you quick access to the camera and two other shortcuts while maintaining a security option.
I installed unlock with WiFi and it does the slide to unlock and the PIN. So when you are on a home WiFi network you just get the slide to unlock.

Ohhh, I see said the blind man. That actually makes more sense than wanting to go through both (slide and pin/pattern) 20+ times a day. That's what I didn't get.

I have spent the last week or so searching for a solution to my question, but I have yet to find it. In short, I want to replicate the 'famous' lock screen from the TV show "Sherlock". When unlocked, it looks like this: i. imgur. com/HihXp. png. When the 'sleep' button is pressed on the device while it is already alseep, it wakes to this screen, minus the letters 'SHER', with the keyboard open. I'm trying to figure out if it is at all possible to do this, rooting or no, without me being forced to effectually code a new lock screen. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Sherlocked Lockscreen
Might wanna take a look at this app on google play. Try searching "SherLOCKED Lockscreen". It's a working lockscreen by the way.
Hi,
since I can't ask in the ROM-Thread (fewer than 10 posts), I'll open this one.
1. Is there a way to disable vibrating when using the four soft buttons?
2. Can I change the "whole-screen-recent-apps-list" to the AOSP one? In the AOSP list I can select other apps to close without scrolling (it just has to be on the screen).
3. I'm using Tasker to enable airplane mode when connecting to a power cord and disabling airplane mode when the cord is plugged out. This worked 100% on stock 2.3. But with the Viper ROM it just works about every third time. Does anyone have a clue how this comes?
Thanks in advance!
PS: This is a great ROM and the first one which really replaced stock 2.3 for me Thanks to the developer team!

The 10 post limit has a reason!
So questions like this (already documented and asked) will not happen...

I'm sorry i do not work for you. :angel:
But i think this is best asked in the ROM thread. As i saw you were using ViperDHD rom go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960734&highlight=viper
As your problems are not general DHD problems but might be ROM problems.
And btw "searching everywhere else" for some just means asking a friend. But it can also be someone has devoted 72 hours of googling and sifting trough XDA, we just dont know.
But i do hope you can get some answers, I would've searched for you but at the moment im working on something myself. (Figuring out howto chage the status bar to my liking. )
Goodluck. :good:
Edit: oh and for Tasker you could find out if there is a forum or anything about that, and search there.
Edit2: Found something: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/tasker

hi,,
what about modaco-superboot.zip? doest it unlock the bootloader of Lenovo p2?
Thank you,,
^Better unlock via the option within the phone's settings. Nobody can tell you if the superboot.zip will work or not. Mine is only 5 days from the life of freedom.

I stumbled on this http://www.unlock-bootloaders.tech/2016/12/lenovo-p2-8319.html but it might well be a fake since they say "I rewrite this tutorial from forum.xda-developers.com" and I can't find anything here and the file to download is behind a "complete offer" wall...Now it seems that modaco-superboot.zip file might be "generic" so the one on XDA https://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&rct=...ui6ckfV3A&sig2=0oDFAOzdaw9JZwAMyRmKJA&cad=rja might work ?
Sorry don't have the P2 yet to try !
After giving it some thought it must be a fake !
It's really annoying that Lenovo have this 14 day rule, can't really see the purpose ? They don't have it on the K6 for instance.
My waiting time ended yesterday. However I don't see much reason to root or do custom ROM's really. The camera is bad as it is and stock is pretty Vanilla. Theming would be the main reason for me. But won't go through a reset for that at the moment.
How did the process work ? You clicked on OEM unlocking in the developer settings and just had to wait 14 days or did they send you an activation code by email ?
As for rooting, just for AdAway I'd say it's worth it !

Adguard or DNS66 without root

The waiting period is over I have not done anyting after that so I don't know the process. We'll see maybe I'll unlock it soon. The camera app itself is so bad I won't miss it. It's a pain taking great photos with the stock camera app it's so sensitive to changes in light.
So it's just an arbitrary waiting period, odd!
The camera app on the K6 is not bad, in fact the panorama feature is really good. I'll check the exposure lock options, or lack of.

You can control the net traffic with local VPNs like Netguard. Don't see a reason for unlocking only because of Ad removal.
By the way the 14 days waiting period exists because of security reason. "Bad guys" can not buy the phone, unlock it, install "bad software" and sell it to honest customers within an hour. They have to wait 14 days and need a lot of SIM-cards. My old Huwai Mate 2 had the same 14 day lock.

Thanks DNS66 looks a lot like AdAway but in chrome I get a frame for the blocked ad, with AdAway the area is just "removed", maybe there's a setting I'm not seeing ?
