shake2unlock with S2U2 - General Questions and Answers

Hi.. i was searching for a shake2unlock app... i found 2 on the forums but one does not work for the Omnia and the other didnt have the shake feature as far as i could tell...
So my q:
is there an app that when you shake your phone it also unlocks s2u2?
thx

Simple answer. No I would love this too, but it hasn't been developed yet. I would ask A_C.

Next time, please ask your questions in the Q&A section rather than opening a new thread.
Mods,
Please move to Q&A at your discretion. Thanks.

I think it'll consume a lot of power.

Nah. If you see PocketShield or TouchLockPro. It does not consume that much power.

doesnt that defeat the point...it will just unlock it when you walk or run , which totally defeats the point of a lock

Maybe if you have the ability to program it to unlock by swinging the device in a specific manner, that might overcome that issue (think throttle lock or Android type of lock software).

And unlocking in pocket would not be an issue because you could also use the light sensor. whenever it is dark dont shake 2 unlock
oh and sorry for the bad location of the thread

ah, so it would only unlock by accident if you were running and holding the phone then, or if the screen waking up on an incomming text / call triggered the light sensor, or if the phone was on your car dashboard and you went over a speedbump, or...etc etc etc ... oh and you couldnt unlock your phone at night
sorry, just dont see any practical use for this app and LOTS of potential issues.
up to you if you want to spend weeks coding it of course

Hi there,
at modaco they have kinda something, but they stopped developing it (unfortunatly):
Lock screen demo
peace

Mee 2 ....
One more...
ok, so maybe is time to start brainstorming except writing "me too"! it is like in the kindergarten
in HKLM/Software/HTC/ are many keys, e.g. StartupAnimation..
i tried to make a new key with StartupVibration/Enable=1
but looks like it does not work. any another ideas?
Umm, if it did work, shouldn't you be setting that value to 0?

In my knowledge, the vibrating on the smart mobility screen, the first on the boot process, is't related to registry, cause the system haven't started yet. So perhaps is a value in the SPL.
I don think you can change into the registry.
did not work even with "0" (as disabled)...
...
if it is a value in the SPL, then no more fight with it...

Why not fight...? we can send a petition to pof to take a look at the HardSPL to see if can find the value (if exist).
i ment not fight with it through registry of course
Why would it vibrate in your cradle? Do you continuously restart your phone in the cradle? Or have an app that restarts your phone often?

I install programs and do regedits while the Kaiser is connected to my PC. Many of these programs & changes needs soft reset.
I see Thanks IsBjorn.
Wish I could help!

It's not a bad idea to let ppl to make contributions of any type. This let ppl learn about other ppl ideas about Kaiser. No one knows what are beside the vibration...
Perhaps this post moves someone to learn something... enough for me to be here...
I personally like this feature since in order to actually power on a Kaiser you have to press/hold the power button until you either see the green light come on or feel the vibration.

I never turn my Kaiser on or off, just soft restarts after and during installations and regedits.
I remember that some of my old mobiles did automaticly disable vibration during charging and when put in a cradle. All this to protect the connectionplug and "chargerport".
(Not that good in writing english; what's the real name on the "chargerport"?)
Charge port = Power jack?
Charge port sounds good to me. =)

[DEVELOPED!!] Proximity sensor + Lockscreen = no more button accidents

YESSS it's HERE!!!!
All credits to exidler!!!! Thanx man!!
I saw this question somewhere else, but i just could'nt find it. So i thought let's start the idea again...
The idea is to have the proximity sens enabled in the wm6.5 lockscreen! Why? To disable the screen and hard buttons! That way if your HD2 is in your pocket, the screen won't go on if u press hard buttons on accident... see.
This would also be a nice feature if you get an incoming call, it happens to me very often, when i have my HD2 in my jeans and want to pick up a call, i often press the end call when pulling out the HD2 out of the pocket.... very frustrating!!!
Is there someone out there who is able to create an app/ tweak like this???
Thread you mentioned was open by me, but no solution for now. Btw proximity sensor isn't a bad idea, I can code in VB .net, but I don't know how use the sensor with the code! I hope there will be a more skilled programmer here!
The solution for now was called S2U2
yeah... any skilled programmer/ developer over here???
Yep, that's a great idea. Shame I can't do it myself

not that easy mate.. how about the lcd going on all the time in your pocket...
htc just needs to add button lock in there rom.
So you can only poweron poweroff the screen using the power button.

I agree, but only when nothing cover the proximity sensor, otherwise the phone will switch on and off in your pocket a lot of time!!
BTW, tha't incredible!!! Why HTC doesn't implement this basic function in their roms?? Really, I don't know!

hi to all,
I have check, pocketshield (latest beta) S2U2, smartlock and some more other
all of then have the same problem, they can not lock the answer key, so in case you have and incall and the phone is on your pocket you can accidentally pick up the call.
pocketshild developer has tall me that it's waiting for HTC to release a hotfix.
iosub
BTW, if anyone finds a solution please post it here

Good to hear...
But why are they waiting??? is it possible that HTC knows about this prob?? Would be nice if HTC developed this theirselves... prox sensor to switch off the LCD and hard buttons in incall AND in Lockscreen!!!
Or come on XDA Developers!!! One of u guys or galls have the power!!!
I certainly don't like the idea of using a full-blown locker like Pocket Shield or S2U2 for this purpose, so hopefully somebody will come up with a way to trap those darned buttons that can be used outside of those programs. Unfortunately I haven't been able to figure out why standard hooks fail...
hi
for me the real question is, why the htc dialer does have a slider but it does not lock the answer and end call keys when reciving a call ?
if htc developers didn't think about it why are they going to fix it ? I don't think we will get a hotfix ...
anyway if anyone find a solution .. please post
thanks
I don't think HTC is going to "fix" it, it's not a bug, it's a design [in]decision. It's been the case with all their phones since the times when dinosaurs ruled the Earth.

I agree with you, but then... what is the solution??? Because each time I have an incomming call and I have the phone in my pocket I have to praid not to push the answer key!!...
To bad "feature"...

someone from HTC stated that they do have an eyes on XDA Dev forum and said "We can't live with them and we can't live without them" referring to XDA-Dev and the like

[Q] Vibration pattern

Hi all!
Iam missing every call and sms in silent vibration mode when iam walking in the street... soooo
Can i customise the vibration pattern for incoming calls and sms???
Iam using HyperNonSense ICS 3.32 based.
Maybe some registry hacks?
And not "Tasker" plz...
Thanks in advance!Sry if its nooby
First off, I'm a new member to XDA and others may have better suggestions then myself, but I figure I'd try and help you out.
For the voice calls, when the phone is in vibrate mode there is already a vibrate pattern that the phone uses. As for changing the pattern, I'm not sure how to do this.
For the sms issue, I personally use an app call "Handcent SMS". In the settings for the app, under "Settings->Notification Settings->Notification Settings->Vibrate Pattern->Custom" you can change the pattern.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help, hopefully someone else has more information.
Eeeh,its not the way i was looking 4 =) but thanks anyway..
I've found an app called "Smart Vibrator" in market, but it seems do nothing. Iam changing the pattern but it remains the same it was =(
Maybe in XDA were threads with useful apps for such customising?
P.S. is it OK for u all,who read this topic, to have such a badly vibration?
Or u got another methods to improve it?
Or doesnt matter at all 4 u? =)
Write suggestions plz =)

Are you using some kind of cover for the device?
Even with the soft (Silicon) back cover on my phone I can still feel it vibrating in my pocket.

[Q] question about galaxy GT-5282

I have a new galaxy gt-5282, and there is a feature I want to remove. Whenever I dial a nr., an icon of the normal shape of a lock is shown, and I have to tap it twice so I can talk. Nothing in the call settings is mentioned about this. How can I remove this lock ? like a normal S2,S3 or S4 ?
H hope this is the right place for this thread.

I think its because your phone doesn't have a proximity sensor, maybe that's why Samsung added this feature.. because my old Samsung Corby had a similar (but far less annoying) feature like this...
So I don't think Samsung made an "Off" switch for this.. and the only way to remove it might be via framework or SystemUI editing.. look for a custom ROM for your phone with this feature disabled... and I'm sorry for not being able to provide you with the correct solution mate

Thank you Sami for your efforts. My original phone is S4, I just bought the GT-5282 yesterday, as it has 2 sim cards and I need that in my traveling. I opened it just today.
I have also 4.1.2 on this small phone, but you may be right, I do not see any thing beside the loud speaker at all, so it does not have a proximity sensor, but I do not see how this lock will help in such a case.
Custom ROM may be the solution, but I could not find here, or on Android forums anything about this GT-5282, they are not mentioning it at all.

Yeah, this is the problem with many mid-range or low-range phones.. There aren't many people who use this phone.. and most of them are probably average users and not Android geeks or developers...
Anyways, Proximity sensors are important for a smartphone or any touch-screen phone.. Its important because it detects how close the screen of the phone is to your body. This allows the phone to sense when you have brought the phone up to your ear. At that point, the display turns off in order to save battery. It also stops detecting "touches" to avoid unwanted input, until you take the phone away from your ear... Nowadays most phones have it and since this phone doesn't maybe that's why Samsung added that feature instead..
And yeah, you don't have to type "thank you" to thank me.. just clicking on that "thanks" button is enough

[Q] Activate touchscreen without power-button

Hey folks,
I'm almost going nuts with this topic, can't find anything useful on the internet.
Is there any way to activate the Smartwatch 2 without the power-button? Yes, you can activate the back-light by double-tap, but you can't unlock the display without pushing the power-button (and wiping).
Double-tap and then be able to wipe would be nice. Or if I take a look at the watch the back-light goes on and then I already want to have the possibility to wipe the lock screen away. Is that somehow possible?
Regards

Thanks for the answer, but I don't believe in Santa anymore.
Edit:
But maybe the easter bunny exists and I gave it a try: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Wirel...creen-without-power-button/m-p/819109#U819109
i got a few posts on that forum as well, never got a reply from Sony
crossing my fingers the easter bunny will wake up soon
gravity screen is for your phone indeed, not for the watch
