Hi, I'm very happy with my WM5, but I find a little thing ennoying:
I set a lock delay but this delay is also actif when the pda is on the cradle.
If I remember well, it was not the case with WM2003Se. Is there a way to disable the screen locking when the pda is connected to the pc?

I love using a2dp in my car stereo... sound quality is great, and I love carrying my tunes wirelessly from my WM6 PPC (HTC Titan) to the car speakers (Sony BT25000 stereo head unit installed in car).
Only problem is that I try to keep the screen off to save battery power, but everytime I press a command on my stereo (pause, next, previous, etc...), it wakes up the phone and I need to screen toggle it off again each time!
This is very annoying, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this problem, and is there a workaround?
I was thinking of writing some sort of MortScript to constantly check if the screen is on, and if so apply a screen toggle command, but it seems like this may create the problem of an infinity loop when I DO want to use it (turn on device, mortscript turns off screen off right away, repeat). Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I have noticed that when I use Core Player, the screen wakes up for a split second when a command is received and then does back to sleep. Of course, you would have to go through the menu of core player to activate the 'screen off' feature. This was tested on a X7501 running WM6.
I have an MDA Compact V (Uk Tmobile). Whenever I turn the screen on ,it shows the last screen I was looking at then I turned the screen off. This I believe is the default and expected behaviour.
However, when I am using TOMTOM and I turn the screen off, the phone always reverts to to the home screen and not back to the TOMTOM screen. This is a pain when I am driving and turn the thing off and on, on long journeys.
Is there are simple fix for this?
Thanks in advance
anyone got any ideas?
I was wondering if there's any solution to the issue of the screen staying locked while the phone is pluged in for synchronise or charging? I've been trying to find a setting of some kind but I failed
I am using Android screen locker.
The purpose is the following:
When I put my phone in the car craddle (with a built in charger and hadns free) it lights up locked and it is a bit annoying to slide down the screen each time I sit in the car for a drive. It would be nice to have the screen unlocked and the phone ready for use (navi, phonecall,...).
Thanks!
I know you said you're using Android locker, which I'm honestly not familiar with. BUT, I'm using S2U2 and it is set to unlock on external power. It also has an option to unlock when connected to a cradle.
Both options can be found under the "Others" section of the S2U2 Settings.
Will give it a try. 10x!
Hi,
I got new Samsung Omnia Pro4 (B7350)
WM 6.5.3
And my problem is that if you have password lock (even though you set at after certain hours), AND lock screen when device is woken up turn on, EACH time you press the lock button and slide button, you will be prompt for a password. VERY VERY annoying. If I remember in previous OS, you can unlock screen without password even though it is set after certain hours.
I use this password lock whit my BT watch, so if my phone is too far from the watch (lost or stolen) it would lock itsef.
But now it's allready locked when I press the screen off button off and on.
It's very annoying to tap password every time, cause the prompt time does not work.
(The watch program work only if the lock is enabled, and I have set the prompt time 2hours)
I just would like to "time to unused" work.
Any help or ideas?
elo,
have you managed to fix this problem?
It's very annoying :/ Previously I unlocked my phone only at simcard change and reboot.
I'm used to answering calls with phone in my pocket and using headphones.
This worked well on my m8, but after upgrade to u11, when call finishes, screen remains on and no lock.
This means that I have to take it out of pocket and lock it.
Is there a way to prevent that?
Maybe in your settings you have define a lock timeout for that?
Mine when call ends shows the PIN Unlock screen. If it's in my pocket it just lock again, I've set 1 minute to it self lock.
