Dear all Defy users,
I am the developer of "Screen Off and Lock" and would like to seek for your reports regarding using the app on your phone. Since I received some reports about the screen will go off and on again after 1 to 2 seconds, could someone give me the following details:
1. The ROM you are using
2. Method of using the app (i.e shortcut from launcher / shortcut from notification bar / long press the search button etc)
3. Delay device locking option is enabled or disabled
4. Kind of screen off animation
5. Problem description (such as screen off and on after several seconds, no animation and screen just goes off immediately etc)
I don't have a Defy for testing so every report from you guys will be appreciated and sorry for my limited English.

Hello there kateca Ive just updated my defy to 2.2.2 (official rom) and one of the reasons that excites me is because i can now install the "screen off and lock" because the power button is hard to reach. but now i cant use it when i press the the icon it just turns off and then on right back after 1-2 secs. Please try to fix this ive been waiting for this apps. ty

1. Official 2.2 Froyo CEE Rooted
2. Shortcut from notification bar + long press/search button
3. 1 sec
4. No animation
5. The screen doesn't goes off but it locks itself. After the sistem delay of inutilisation, the screen goes off.
CM7 RCO 2.3.4
Shortcut from launcher
Disabled Delay ( CM7 has the TV intro/Outro i used out of the box)
The screen goes off. It works. Great App.
I posted in the Market comment section of your app that on 2.2/2.1 versions it does not work properly.( i used official and Custom ROM. I used to have Pays 2.2 Froyo. before CM7). The screen goes off and than on locked. Didn't bother me that much as it is very stable-always worked. I initially thought i have to pay for screen off from first press.
Nevertheless great app. Hope you solve the problems ^. And thank you for talking to us here on XDA.
The problem

Hello!
I have a Defy, and I think there's a problem with the Froyo, not the app.. I will leave you to decide.
1. 2.2.2 - froyo official release
2. tried it in all the ways, the same result.
3. Delay device locking option enabled.
4. Old TV Style (did'nt try the rest - this is the reason why I installed it in the first place )
5. Animation, then screen off, and then on again, with the lock screen (this is the problem).
Now, the error is the same with similar apps like yours (I tried 2 more widgets: Lock Screen Widget and Screen Lock Widget). They all have the same result: screen off, than back on with a swype screen locker (yours is a little bit cooler, it also has the nice animation).
Anyway, this is the behaviour on all of them, regardless the screen lock way (none, pattern, pin or password).
Teoretically, all the apps should do the same thing as the power button does, and they do it half way (the display goes off, but then back on with the swype screen unlocker)
In the none selection, the power button is the only one that acts correctly, it just powers off the screen. In the case of the apps, I have the swype unlock.
In the other selections (pattern, pin or password), also after the power button (after I press it again to unlock), the swype thing appears, and then the correct unlocker.
So, I'm not an expert, but I think there could be some kind of 2 levels locker in the froyo, which have a bug. Cause the swype unlocker teoretically should not be present nowhere in these scenarios (there is no option to activate/deactivate it, but it is present - this swype unlock was not present in android 2.1 -eclair).
Good luck with the app! (I will definately use it after I solve somehow this problem with the screen locker).
Best Ragards,
Alex
I have the exact same experience with my Defy. It has Froyo Nordic including motoblur
I tried all apps for this, and they all have the same behavior.
Only one works: "Screen off FX". But I suspect that it works in a different manner because it does not need to be device administrator. Maybe it will use more battery that way. Anyway I do not like it because it takes 20 secs before the screen is finally off.
Do you think it could be a problem with motoblur? Do you other guys have motoblur on your Defy?
1. The ROM you are using
-official froyo update (by motorola)
2. Method of using the app
-long press the search button
3. Delay device locking option is enabled or disabled
-enabled
4. Kind of screen off animation
-old tv off
5. Problem description
-screen goes off and then on again as locked

SORRY FOR SUCH A LONG MESSAGE BUT PLZ TRY TO HELP>>>
the problem is.. black screen!!(but status bar visible,so not a hardware problem i think) for example...when i opened settings,black screen appeared(status bar visible) and nothing was visible until i touched or slide my finger on the screen..after sliding my finger on the screen,display appeared and worked normally..in adition to this some apps also didn't worked after that...i tryed to change the theme coz i thought it to be a theme related problem...on changing it to stock theme,it got even more worst
thiss time screen showed display but screen image/projection remained still(snapshot) but the touch worked properly...let me explane:- on the lock screen when i slide the bar to unlock the screen,the screen showed no movement of the bar but on completing the slide it unlocked the phone...so its like,things are happning but i cant see them now after rebooting all problem gone but it occours frequently after some time(1day or so) to get rid of this i reflashed the rom but after a while this black/still screen occours again... HELP!!
I am getting 2 bugs on this rom.
One is that when i change the brightness on Notification power widget or in the settings, after i lock the screen and unlock again he goes to default. So, i cant change the brightness.
The second problem is that sometimes, the keyboard (android keyboard or touchpal) locks, and i cant send messages for 1,2 minutes. The messages system gets slow and with breaks.
beside that, excellent rom.
Resolutions?
Hi,
Under screen lock I marked swipe.
It stopped working.
When I press the lock button, the screen just appeared like the none option is marked although the swipe is marked.
I have tried the following:
Restart
Shut down
Change user to guest
Clear credentials
Change to password and change back
After changing to password go to smart lock and make sure there are not trusted places
After changing to swipe the smart lock option is grey like it is set to None.
Any ideas?
Thanks
