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.

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

When not removed from ROM you will find it as \Windows\keylock.exe

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

As a former HTC Hero user i really miss the option to wake the screen using the bottom hardware buttons.
On the Desire you have to use the power button, but i hate the placement of that button.
Is there a way to use the "menu" or any other bottom hardware button to wake the screen?
BUT i still want to have the lockscreen, so the app which is mentioned in the tricks section on this board isn't cutting it for me since it will deactivate the lockscreen in order to let you use other hardware buttons to wake the screen.
Any other solutions? Isn't there some kind of "hardware button mapper" available like on windows mobile devices?
Just got my Desire today, so I am actually curious about this also.

Yes, but only possible on rooted handsets, no?
Probably :/
damn, don't want to root my desire as i have heard of random bricks.
another question:
is there an app to lock the screen using a widget?
so after i'm done with the current action, i don't want to use the power button to lock the screen, but a widget or a shortcut.
Is there a widget available for that? Or even better a widget to turn of the screen?
I have Lockbot Pro installed and I can wake the screen with any of the buttons at the bottom. Pressing Menu then gives me an 'unlock' bar on the screen which I can press to unlock (or I can swipe the screen in the standard way). Allows you to unlock without pressing the power button at all.
thanks for the hint. the app looks quite nice, but it seems to be very slow.
When waking the screen it takes very long until the lockscreen is shown, and it always shows a different lockscreen?!
also is the an option in the pro version to define a key to lock the screen?
So i.e. i wake the screen using the center navigation pad button, can i define that pressig the button again should turn the screen off again?

Hi,
I have a SGS I9000. Is there anyway I can make the phone to sleep/lock after double pressing the home key?
Thanks
You do know that you can lock it by pressing the power button right?
and give change for "No lock" called app what can get from market for free.
My lock button is shot, and I was wondering if there was a way to give the volume rocker the same functionality for waking up the phone. I do not want to bypass the lock screen, such as with no lock, and I want to use the default lock screen not widget locker. Is this possible? I just want the phone to wake up when I press the volume button.
Side note, anyone else break their power button and replace it or fix it? It doesnt seem like it would be all that difficult, just wondering if anyone else has done that.
anyone have any solutions for this? I'm rooted so if there is any way to actually re-map the volume up key to have the function of the power key I could do that....
Cm7. 1 has an option to use the volume rocker to wake the phone.
Edit.... Decks rom might have the same option, as it's based off CM, but don't quote me on that as I have never used it.

AN-Droid 2.0.0. It is a great rom, but I have one problem. If i press navigation

Thank you
