Hello, I'm looking for a good touch screen lock, to avoid unwanted calls when the screen turns on in the pocket. I'd like a very simple lock with a slide, I don't like much S2U2, because it's too much invasive, and I don't like the today page set under the slide...

S2U2 sucks. It looks verry nice and it works great but I found out that if you hit your end call button it kills S2U2. So the lock doesn't lock all of the buttons.

man be careful what you post up here cuz thats not true. the only button thats unlocked on my phone is the display on/off button. otherwise the product would be useless and no one would use it.

DONT MISTAKE THIS WITH S2U2 ITS NOT S2U2 HAVE U SEEN THE LINK ??? GO THERE THIS WAS ACTUALLY FOR VGA SCREEN RESOLUTION " Kisja's Locker mod which is for VGA"
I didn't mean the link, I don't know anything about that screen lock. I can't say anything about Kisja's lock. It looks quite good to me!
I'm sorry I've quoted the wrong post.
S2U2 (the iPhone look-a-like) doesn't work correctly on my Topaz. If I hit the end call button it will end S2U2 also.
i dont actually care about how does lock look... I just work efective auto lock, with user set timeout .... Build in auto lock in wm6.5 sucked.
Now i'm on wm6.1, any sugesstions?
I'm using s2u2 as well - there's a lot of configuration options and so it can be pretty much customised to your needs. I find 2.20 better than 2.21 for the topaz though.
Don't have problem with end call killing it either..

You probably need to edit .cpr files in windows folder:
LS_LockScene_*.crp
theres not much to play with yet. You can change the graphics or position of elements, but nothing else. Only if somebody could make an app to show big battery meter or something.
What i understood, CPR is of XML format. I agree with ibrythill for change the order or position. But i was trying to compare it with S2U2 and trying to think about developing more options into it.
But thanks for the feedback, i will surely try to modify something in Lock Screen, which be usefull to all.
TO end with, just wanna know, is modifying and replacing .CPR file similar to what we do in case of Start Menu or Titanium file?
Ash
i would love to be able to control music from the lock screen or have a big battery meter like s2u2..
that would be pretty sweet
It would be great if you could figure out how to adjust backlight brightness in the lock screen. In bright areas I can't hardly tell where the slider lock is, or let alone if my screen is even on.
Good Luck!
Have taken the ideas into consideration.
Do keep posting with bright ideas

I wanna see the weather on the lock screen like in s2u2

It would also be nice to have some sort of "power save mode" like s2u2, battery life is so much better with s2u2 then with WM lock.
I am using S2U2 on BSB 6.5 Rom.
Although not 100% compatible I found it better because the is the slide to answer feature you can set to always. On the Windows lock the slide to answer only shows up when the phone is locked and you get the ugly windows pop-up when not locked. So this is a useful feature you may consider.
Also when the screen is locked with the windows lock the caller ID wasn't working and it is with the latest s2U2 fix.

This may help...
Start - Settings - System - Power - Backlight Tab
and Untick the "Backlight is always dim while device is locked" option.
See if this helps any....

I don't seem to have this tick box... and I tried using advanced config, but with no results.
Would be also nice to see the next 2-3 appointments on the Lockscreen
Display Day of Week in Lock Screen
I am trying to figureout how to display day of the week like Monday.. Sunday in the lock.. Everytime I glance at the lock screen I am annoyed for not seeing what day is it.
does any1 have the problem of sometimes trying to slide the slider to answer a call and it doesnt respond or responds after several attemps?
and is there a fix or cab to make this as responsive as sliding the tab bar on tf3d?
thanx
Works flawless for me, never had any lag issues.
looks like i have a dodgey device then !!! lol thanks for your response anyway

I use S2U2 which obviates the need to use the slider and improves battery life for me although some ppl find the opposite.

thanks mate downloaded an installed S2U2... well impressed !!!!! thanks again
ive installed this and it seems to work, but from the images I see on here the slide to unlock was bigger (similar to IPhone) and it also double locks, when I slide to unlock I have to do the other slide to unlock as well. This is probably something simple sorry if this is a stupid question. Many thanks

if the double lock issue is the windows default lock being on also, you need to disable it. there`s a cab in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584415 i think you may need to back up original lockscreen files 1st or you may lose default lock screen if you decide to uninstall s2u2. i`m not 100% certain though
Is it possible to activate your lock screen by clicking on the sleep button? (Just like S2U2) At this moment I've got it the original way by holding the end call button. I hope there is a simple way to do that, maybe a cab. file?
I'm using a stock win 6.5 ROM.
Here, this should work. its better to install in main memory. once installed, it will appear in your start menu, which u can then configure to suit your needs.
Hope it helps, let me know!

I've got it running. Please tell me how to configure it to my needs. I want everything stock except that I want to auto lock my phone when I hit the sleep button or when it goes automatic to sleep.
Search for HKCU/ControlPanel/Backlight/ set Autodevicelockenabled to 1.
It's one of the first options, lock on standby. The problem with the reg edit is that it locks on backlight dim and uses the winmo call lock.
tried this but when i am using the camera or video, or playing a video it locks.
how can i avoid this.
There is a field that says 'DO Not Lock if runing' what do i write in this field?
Thanks

For that you need a registry editor like total commandar or resco registry, also, SK tools comes with a registry editor.

I'm using something called AutoLock Screen v 1.7E. It just works, no reg tweakes or anything like that. It lockes the device when it goes to sleep, when you press the power button to turn off the screen, it even does in call lock... but I admit it would be nice if it actualy turned off the screen when in call rather then just locking it...
I recomed you use this version because the newest ones have the tendancy to double lock your device...

I'm currently using S2U2 to blank screen when connected, which works fine, and I use Cookie's Home Tab 1.8.5 for all other times.
I think it's memory wasteful to use S2U2 just to turn the screen off during phone calls, and didn't know if anyone knew a way that I could set CHT to turn the screen off, or knew another application that used less memory to perform the same function that S2U2 does.
I don't use S2U2 for unlocking all the time because I like the looks and functionality of CHT's lockscreen better, but I haven't seen a way to do connected/dialing locking with it.
Thanks in Advance.
