[Q] No TPUnlock-WackUp - AceMod007 ROM - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone please advise me what is "No TPUnlock-WackUp" I downloaded ACEMOD007's ROM last night which is running very well.. there is an extra called "No TPUnlock-WackUp" . I need to know what is this before I install. Can someone please let me know.
Cheers!!

It removes the Track-pad to Unlock function.
Currently, if you press the track pad, the phone will wake. Press it again and the phone unlocks.
Flash that .zip and you are back to power button to wake, slide finger on screen to unlock function.
TP2U/TP2W is waaaaay better, imo.

Add auto lock to the power button?

Hi,
In general I am very happy with my new TP2, however, I keep forgetting to press the lock button (hold down the call end buttoun until it vibrates) prior to pussing the power button and putting it in the case.
Does anyone know of a way of adding this function to the power button, so that it automatically locks?

If you use S2U2 you get this functionality, I don't know how to do it with normal screen lock.
Dave
Or if you use Throttle Lock you can use a pattern to unlock your device, and you can set it up that when you push the powerbutton it gets locked with the pattern, or that when you push the powerbutton it will wait a x given minutes and then your device get's locked with a pattern.
I don't know how to do it with normal screen lock.
i have this on mine dont know how i got it take it came with some app i have installed
Anyone know how to fix this so that the phone's standard lock autolocks? Tried throttle etc but I still really like the simplicity of the normal phonelock, just need to get it to do it by itself.
Homescreen plusplus (Batterystatus) has this option. You can select lock on standby, it uses normal wm lock app. Used it on my Wizard, not sure if it's compatible with the TP2...

Use TouchLockPro as locking utility. Automatically locks at power on and unlocks by light sensor. And you can configure a key unlock sequence. And with a slide to answer solution, you can only lock the hardware keys at incoming call.
if you simply press the power button that switches off the screen and locks all buttons.
uilt-in WM feature.
If you set a password it also automatically locks it
how do you enable ALL BUTTONS UNLOCK ?
in older devices there was an option somewhere in the keys section, now only the power button turns the phone on,. i want all the keys to turn it on, since i use the s2u2...
thanx

When not removed from ROM you will find it as \Windows\keylock.exe
Otherwise try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5875933&postcount=5
I am still looking for auto lock at suspend. I don't want to install a program bringing with it 100.000 functions.
I dont see the point in adding extra features to a lock screen. its there to keep the screen locked and thats it lol
Anyways, try 'lock device GUI'
It just adds the function to lock the device when the power button is pushed (Sleep).
Keeps the old lock screen, only adds function
Yea check out LockDevice. I use it and it works great..

DeviceLock.cab Works As Well...
I had similar issue. So I installed "DeviceLock.cab" and added it as a Quick Link on HCT Sense 2.5 Homescreen. Now I just have to click on the link to lock the device. Once the screen if off the keys don't matter.
Also used "Lock Screen With Bottom Slider" for easy access.
I can't post links, but if you search for quote phrase, you should be able to find a download.
Hope that helps.
Try smartlock. Works perfect! Just install the cab, then it can be found in: Start/Settings/System

[Q] Track ball wake for un rooted HTC Desire

Hi,
Can any one tell me or give the link how can I make Optical Track ball wake for un rooted HTC Desire
Thanks for Help in Advance
There is an app in the market called 'no lock', which makes all the buttons wake the phone. The problem is that you won't have the lock screen anymore if you activate the app, pressing any button will get you to the homescreen, you won't have slide to unlock anymore, until you deactivate the app again.
Just root. I don't see why people don't want to root. It's fully reversible if you need to and easy to do.
thanks for the Help I also found Lockbot pro which dose the similar function, only disadvantage is if you press home button to unlock slide lock will become de-active, once again you have to set the slide lock, then it works. also turning off with only power on/off button only.

Problem with path lok...

Since a few days I flash the rom R.S.K v.6.0. It works well on my phone ,the only think is that now to unlock the screen I can do it with any of the physical button except the button Home...It s very annoying when I put it in my pocket, or even in my hands. Than the ring it s also to sensibel and I just tuch it and the screen is unlook; It s possible to change the sensivity of the ring???
PS I hope peoples who are raeding this will understand mor than last my "english"
You can flash one of the zip file that I posted here
It will disable all buttons to wake up the phone.
OK, thanks for your answer. It s possible to do this and keep only the track pad like usely? Other wise i will try flashing the .zip you tell me. Thanks
Yes... trackpad to wake and unlock is there, only other buttons are disabled.

[Q]How to modify Home Button function in Sleep mode

Is there a way to modify the function of the HOME BUTTON so it doesn't wake the phone?
My Arc S keeps on unlocking inside my pocket and takes a lot of snapshots and drains the battery.
And another thing, what variable to use to open RECENT APPS via a hardware key, for example the camera shutter key.
Thanks in advance.
To prevent screen from turning on in pocket, disable the feature, which turns on screen via home button. Will post instructions later.
Sent from LT18i with custom firmware by myself.

Would really much appreciate it, I've been tormented by this accidental unlock in pocket and drains my battery because of the camera.
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and about the other thing, is it possible? What if I substitute the RECENT APPS for the MENU BUTTON, would the 3dot option appear on some apps?

Take a file explorer, that can access root folders (ES File Explorer for example), make sure to go into settings and allow access and write to system folders.
Then go to /system/usr/keylayout, open the file pm8058_keypad.kl with ES File Explorer's default Note Editor (long press, Open As, Text), find this line
Code:
key 102 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
and change it to
Code:
key 102 HOME
So just remove the WAKE_DROPPED part.
Wrote it from my head, might have mistakes. Hopefully not.
EDIT: About the recent apps, this is coded somewhere in framework, I can't help you with that. However, the on-screen buttons do not show Menu button, it will only appear on the right side, if there is an app, which makes use of the Menu button and no other possibilities are available (depends on how the app is built).
Thanks a lot for the help sir.
It did the trick and the HOME BUTTON doesn't wake the phone from sleep.
Really much appreciated help.
Thanks again.
I have another question sir, How can I assign the WAKE function in some other button, let's say the VOLUME DOWN?
I tried replacing the WAKE with WAKE_DROPPED but it didn't work, I tried adding it without removing the WAKE and failed.
So is there a way for this?
Thanks again in advance sir.
This particular problem is the reason I use a lock pattern, not because of the security of my phone, but because of the many photos my pocket takes. However, it would be nice if we could wake the phone using the volume rockers, just not to abuse the power button. I also tried to place WAKE_DROPPED on such buttons with no success, help pretty please
Actually I was looking for a mod to use the proximity sensor to know when it is in the pocket, and not allowing the menu button to wake the handset, but this is way better, thanks pal :highfive:
-----------------------------------
Edit:
I found out that the volume rockers actually work well waking the screen, but, you have to select in security>Screen Lock>None
In such case the volume rockers will work to wake the phone (no need to add anything to the VOLUME DOWN line, as it already says WAKE)
Now the question is how to change it to do it while having slide, pattern or password as screen lock
Yeah, that's what I'm after. Using the Volume Rocker to function like the HOME Button in waking the phone.
Will someone help us out in customizing this. The POWER BUTTON is pretty far for my fingers, and the VOLUME DOWN sits just right under my thumb when holding the phone.
Would really much appreciate it if someone help us out.
Maybe they can include something like this on custom roms, giving the users the option to pick which would they prefer.

It is already on some custom ROMs.
CyanogenMod/FXP based and MIUI ROMs, if I am not mistaken.
But I'm using Zelly Cream 2.5 and it doesn't have that. Hope that it can be ported to this rom.
How do i do it if it's possible? I don't have the know how on such programming/language, will someone help me.
Hi, I have my xperia arc s also with the same problem with you... i actually downloaded root explorer and i can navigate the system data/files but i cannot modify the files mentioned the HOME WAKE_DROPPED... because my unit is not a rooted one...
Please help me to disable the home button by not rooting my phone... Can you make an APK file to disable this function? please please help

TWRP 2.8.1.0 Not working on my HTC Desire 816.

Hey guys, so I flashed TWRP onto my device but it keeps freezing when I try to reboot or when I press the power button it brings up the swipe to unlock but then when I slide to unlock it doesnt do anything. I have to hard reset it each time. Anybody have any ideas?
It works, you have to touch the screen with 2 fingers though. Like, 1st hold your finger on what you actually want to tap on, then while the holding the 1st finger down, tap the screen elsewhere with a different finger. when you have to swipe, swipe the bar to far right, hold it at the end, then tap a 2nd finger in the middle of the swipe bar. can't really explain perfectly without hands on lol. I prefer TWRP, so i just played around with it and figured it out. stupid bugs. Also, I don't know if i need specific drivers, but i can't mount my sd card to my PC in TWRP. If anyone can answer that.
