How can I turn off screen directly?
Hand up key just exit app first...
the red hangup button switches off the screen directly.
he means like in treo650's if you hit the red key/hangup button it turns the screen off when your in an app and when you press it again it is still in the current app, rather then hit the red key takes you to the home screen then hit it again and it turns the screen off.
Similar effect you can have with Opt+Hangup. It activates KeyGuard and turns screen of in 3 or 5 seconds. After pressing hangup again you're back in last app. But you have to use combination of keys

is there a program or something that I can lock the screen with one finger,
to lock the screen I have to hit the White button and the End button at the same time..
I tried hitting the white button twice and trhen the End and it does not work.

If you set keyguard to "when power is turnoff"
Then when you push the red button (end) the screen will go black, with keygaurd on - Locked.
Is that what you want.
well.. not really..
the reason i want to be able to lock the phone wile in a phone call. the red button will hang up the call.. so what I do is hit the Solid white button and then the Red button, thats fine, but its hard to do when on a call.. and I don't want to disable the touch screen when on a call because sometimes with my BT Headset I use it. and it can't be re-enabled .. (if there is a way I would love to know about it)
thanks.

i dunno if any of you notice this. when you press the right most button, with the red end call key, the phone goes into standby, but did not go into lockscreen. when you press any button, the screen lights up in home screen and the next second the lock screen kicks in.
i am wondering is it possible to tweak and make it such that when u press the button, the screen will go into lockscreen first before the screen blackout. i guess we can't have the screen blackout and going into lockscreen together since going into standby, app wouldn't run either.
Just that i prefer to lockscreen first rather than when i wake it up, it goes into lockscreen and i have to unlock it.
That will depend on the ROM. At least on the HD2 this will happen if you disable automatic backlight. Did you do that?
Hit start and then hit lock on the bottom left.
My phone tends to turn off in my pocket due to the power button being held and then, somehow, the "turn off" on the screen clicked. Is there any way to make screen lock lock the physical buttons as well? So that clicking the power button turns the screen on like it does now but holding it doesn't make the window prompt. From what I see, there's no such option in the android itself so some app maybe?
When I am texting, when I press the lock button, the screen darkens signifying that my screen is locked; however, when I press the power button to open my phone so I can unlock it, the keyboard is still there. I am unable to enter my PIN through the keyboard. The enter key that is normally in the bottom right of the keypad is changed and pulled up to the middle of the screen. The emergency call button is raised to the middle of the screen with the enter button. I have realized that if I press the emergency call button and then the back arrow, I am able to get to the normal screen and unlock my phone.
I updated to the latest software version yesterday and since then when the screen is off and I long press the home button to turn it on it redirects me to the pattern unlock instead of showing me the lock screen with the time and notifications. Is a bit annoying as I pressed the home button before just to see the time or if I had new notifications and now I can't.
I have searched through the options but haven't seen anything.
Is there anyway to make it turn the screen on to the lock screen instead of the pattern input?
Turn off long press home button to unlock.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That was it! I saw the option but I thought I had to let it be turned on so long pressing the home button actually worked.
Thanks!
