keylocktray.exe

hi all.
in \windows\ I have an executable called keylocktray.exe
when I run it an icon appears in my task tray on the today screen but nothing happens.
anyone know what it's for - except for locking the keys, and why it does nothing.
i'm just interested.
wm5 - imate rom 2.16.9.1 wwe.
phone is a wizard.
what's that task tray for anyway? only tomtom seems to use it and since you need to go to start-today to access it anyway, isn't it easier just to click start-tomtom?

Hi eayuwna!
Actually the tray is used by many programs, but I guess you don't have the ones in question.
It acts pretty much like the tray in desktop windows (the icons next to the clock).
Have you tried clicking on the icon that appears there?
On my jamin (prophet) for example, the tray is used by the comm manager and the battery meeter. That way I can access power manager and comm manager from today screen without them taking up space in the start menu.
Keep in mind that start menu only lets you have 7 items in it. That's why there are programs like VJTrayLaunch (www.vijay555.com) that let you put icons in the tray to launch apps directly from today screen.

ok
ok. that's new to wm5 I think? is it?
I suppose if you have your device default to the today screen after inactivity then it's useful.
I do have comm manager there too but the wizard has a hard key for it so I rarely use the icon.
when I click the icon concerned it changes to a keyboard symbol with a padlock and a line thru but all the hardware keys still work. can someone else give it a try to see if it does anything on other phones?
incidentally, speaking of the battery icon, my old Qtek ROM used to have the cool green version. Since upgrading to the imate ROM I now only have the crappy windows one (actually I have wisbar).
Is there an executable I can get off someone with a QTek one that will give me my good taskbar battery meter back?
***EDIT***
Scratch that; I've just looked through the windows folder some more and found Powertray.exe. Copy this as a shortcut to \windows\startup to get it back.

The tray icon for Keylocktray.exe toggles the option for turning on the backlight using any hardware button. I love functionality but want to enable it always and remove the tray icon. Can anyone give me pointers on how to do this.

HTC S710 Stopping Fakecursor - help!

HTC S710
Finally I can run Fakecursor and use TomTom etc to the full.
However I cannot switch the program off!!
Have got SmartToolKit and Xbar3 and neither seem to help.
There must be a solution to taking the battery out?
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Paul

just press the home button twice

same problem and more
I also would love to use fake cursor for tomtom and igo 2008. I´ll try the suggested method to turn it off. Also i´d like to know how to configure it. I just can´t assign functions to the buttons.

Screen lock for TOMTOM

Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a screen lock for Tomtom software. I have the polaris running V7 of tomtom. The problem is I use it with the motorbike and earpiece.
So basically I set the destination, drop it in my pockets and listen for directions however the screen needs to be active. If it looses focus or the screen goes blank then directions updates stop. Otherwise the screen keeps getting pressed while riding so directions get interrupted.
Anyway I can get around this. tom tom screen lock would be great.

Hi Dusty, I'm a biker too so I already faced (and solved) that!
There are two problems using TomTom as we need to use:
1. if Polaris goes in sleep mode (blank screen), TomTom looses focus and stops working;
2. random screen taps (typically wen you store your PDA in a pocket) can of course modify/interrupts itineraries.
To solve both of them, I suggest you not to use any third parties' screen lock.
Just do as follows:
set your battery saver off (so your Polaris never get sleep);
launch TomTom and choose your destination;
go back to WM without quitting TomTom (you can easily do that setting one of the hw buttons to launch "Today" screen);
use stock WM screen lock
enjoy your ride

Hi
Could you, please, explain what is "stock WM screen lock" exactly?
Does it a 3rd party application itself?
I have TomTom V6. I stops to respond when it goes to the system tray, which means that the trick with "Today" is not good enough for TT V6.
Regards.
PS. Correction: I was wrong, TomTom V6 works when in the system tray

The stock WM screen locker is an utility I've found preloaded on my Polaris so I do believe is a standard WM tool (see first picture, it's the red rounded icon).
I also have TT6 (see second picture) and it continues to work fine when I press the Hw button that brings me to "Today" (I assigned the "explorer" button, but you can configure any other Hw command).

Thank you very much, deepblue68
I was wrong, your advise works fine!
Best regards!

Hmmm
I think the key is disabling screen saver/poweroff which is what it will do when on the home screen.
I have re-felashed my phone now and can't find a lock function (do know what you are talking about. Sure its just a little menu option somewhere.

Tomtom + s2u2 + screenlocking

Hi,
I have a touch Pro 2 and before a Touch HD and my question is : how do you use your gps software ? I mean, the purpose of the gps is to be seen.
I have on my phone s2u2, and when i launch TT7, one minute later s2u2 locks my screen... Grrr, Ok I disable it. I go in battery settings, uncheck combos telling to shut off the screen and the phone. The relaunch TT7.
But my phone doesn't lock anymore, and when i'm arrived, I need to recheck battery settings and s2u2. I saw that there was a soft (touchlock 0.4) that would have been what I needed but it's not working with TP2.
So how do you use your gps soft efficiently ?
Many thanks.

[Q] S2U2 (remap of lock button in start menu)

Hi guys,
I really tried to find it out on my own first, but it seems that Im not skilled enough to do that.
After installation of S2U2 everything is working flawlessly. After some (set) period of time, s2u2 will lock screen correctly. Even power button will lock device using s2u2 application. But that damn "lock" button in startmenu will lock screen with classic WM lockscreen. I know it is not some bug and its normal, but question is:
1. Is there any way how to remap even lock button to s2u2 application?
2. Or, is there any way how to disable this button and make it invisible?
Solution for first one would be awesome.
Thank you!
EDIT: Sorry for my bad english language.

Same here
+1 for this idea. I have the same problem, really annoying. After I've installed the" move slider to bottom" .cab and shortly after uninstalling this .cab I found out that the original default slider had been disabled and some kind of cheap unlock-button has came in place of the original slider. I couldn't get this original slider to work again so I've installed S2U2. But after installation and configuration of S2U2 I've noticed that the original slider also is active. In other words the S2U2 app is working perfectly, but is working simultaneously with the standard onlock button. (#@^%^$%)
How can I turn this off?!?
(edit: now the unlock button appears randomly and not every time I unlock the phone with S2U2. But it' s still annoying enough to want to have it disabled.) Anyone?

Well, its little different issue than I have in my mind, but it was same on my device. I have found solution for your issue in S2U2 FAQs:
Q. How to disable the WM6.5 built-in lock?
A. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4996782&postcount=2961
First install cab from that link and then install S2U2. Issue with double lockscreen (first s2u2 and after unlock present second standard WM locksreen) should dissapear.
BUT, if you click on "Lock" button in startmenu. Device will be locked with standard WM locksreen not S2u2.
NOTE That phone power button and time-lock are working with S2U2 perfectly... I just want to remap event this button for S2U2.

I'm looking exactly for the same functionnality!
Good idea
Anybody got a trick to map or hide this "unlock" button?

+1 i like this function too

the new version of s2u2, 2.30, does that for you, remaps the lock button inside the start menu to s2u2.
