Please help!

HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDeviceLockEnable-----------> set to 1
Where do i find that?
I am learning slowly
use a registry editor, like total commander.
either that or you can install S2U2 http://ac-s2.com/. click on S2U2, and download the VGA/WVGA cab and install on your phone. it's just like the unlock system on the iPhone

Doesn't work on my TP2
Edit: Ok, if I set a PIN it works - but then I have to slide first and enter the PIN each time I turn on the phone.
Screen Lock
This is something highly desirable to me too, on Touch Pro 2.
I tried a couple locking programs (2EasyLock & Pocket Shield). I didn't like 2Easy. PocketShield worked well with WM6.1 but problematic with WM6.5. I did not pay for either tools so not going to complain to customer support.
I found another Reg entry, LockScreen but after changing it, there was no change to lock. Even after soft reset (shut down, boot), which in this case, the entry went back to 0. I'm not sure what this entry is for or the exact options, but I tried 1/0.

It's BUILT in ....
Start/ParametersSecurity/Lock
You have to choose how long (60 sec etc) and a code pin to lock .
BUT
I believe there is another option to lock automatically without a pin code.
Simply hold the red button and your phone will be locked.

Er... I think he knows the red button locks the device, he's searching for an auto-lock function.
auto key lock
i am using the autokey lock and i love
it acts and feels like a nokia auto key lock and you can set it up very easily
thanks

OK
You're right Kevin, I've searched for an auto lock program.
I've tried the Maniac tools. It's TOTALLY perfect. I like a lot the custom screen saver function.
Many thanks for your hint !
I use smart toolkit from e-native
http://www.e-natives.web.id/
it's free but does more than just auto lock...you can cut and paste several items, adds a task manager bar, lets you take screen shots, it's really cool, but at first it's not very easy to use...however, now I absolutely love it

batterystatus plug in
...I use this mainly to do dynamic overclocking on my Wizard, but it has the option for "device lock on wakeup". when I've finished with my phone, I turn the display off and I'm good to go. Not quite an autokeylock but in use I prefer it...

Folks thanks for the download link for the WM5 AutoKeyLock

After downloading the above and placing the CAB file in the Temp folder on phone installatiol fails with the message "Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions"
Really would like to have this key lock feature. Any idea and guidence to sort this problem out.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

is there any way to password lock the phone by pressing power button? maybe registry settings, application, or other way? if some1 can explain how, it'll be really great.
tray icon application will be fine too.
If you enable the password feature, and set the time-out to 0, it should ask for a password every time you turn it on.
no, its not suits me, i have 2 minutes phone turn off setting, and i dont want phone to be locked in 2 minutes. all i need is to lock it with power button and auto lock set to 15 minutes.

Try this:
Kai's Device PIN on/off 1.2
Application Description
Do you protect your device with a password? Then you need this program. Assign it to a button and switch the device PIN comfortably on an off.
User-friendly in 3 steps explained
Deposit (save) the password (encrypted)
Recall by hardwarebutton: ON/OFF of device PIN (without new entering)
Example of use:
You were the hole day away on business and your device PIN is activated. When you get home and you do not want to enter always the device PIN . With this progam you can switch off the PIN easily and quick. On the next day, when you got to work, activate the PIN comfortably by a keystroke without reentering the PIN.
System requirements:
System: Windows Mobile for Pocket PC 2003, 2003 SE, WM 5, WM 6
Screen: 240x320 Pixel or higher
Processors: Samsung, Intel® PXA XScale, StrongARM, OMAP
Its cheap, less than $5.
If it does not power the device off you could use mortscript to run this .exe & a power off .exe & map a script link to a button or an icon or voice command.
Hope this helps.

This program would meet your requirements by having a tray icon or launcher icon.
Mapping it to the power button may not be possible but it could be mapped to any other button if wanted.
This is the only password auto locking software using the standard device lock available.
Your only other option is to create a password on/off MortScript to run Settings/Password and auto input your 4 digit code,tick the required boxes & then run a device off.exe, done this on my old Magician a few years back., works well but its a bit crude compared to Kia's software.
i've download similar application(PSShut XP), but this app doing same as u describe, its runs settings\password lock, and then password promt appears, and u can simply click menue\cancel ). maybe this was working in windows 2003 or wm5, but im using wm6. only thing i've found for that case is vb function SHDeviceLockAndPrompt(), and i need to download SDK and compile an .exe, but im looking easier solution for that problem
clarification
I believe I am also looking for the same functionality:
-scenario: you power off the phone via hardware button and put it in your pocket. In your poocket, the button is pressed accidentally, and because the password lock has not yet auto-activated, the screen is active and you accidentally call your boss, or a total stranger
If this is your scenario, there is a 'screen saver' called MortSaver that can prevent this situation: it requires you to press a 2nd hardware button (user defined) to fully close the screensaver. unfortunately it will not instantly enable the password lock.
this does seem like nothing more than a simple api call, but i would be surprised if there isnt an .exe somewhere to do it aready. will have a look around.

I know S2U2, but it's "too big" for my artemis! I'm looking for a small tool. And I want the device locked securely. Slide is not enough.

S2U2 has a PIN lock, but yes it is a tad on the big side.
Hi Guys,
There are a couple of things I've not been able to get working in the way I'm used to on my Artemis, just wondered if anyone can help....
1) The require password when device is not used for x minutes, when set to 0 minutes on my Artemis, would only ask me for the password if it was coming out of standby... I'm trying to get the Polaris to behave in the same way. The gotcha with this is that having edited the settings on the Artemis, it doesn't behave like this anymore
What's actually happening is that when set at 0 minutes the device locks right away. I've now set it to 1 hour but now when coming out of standby I don't have to put the password in unless I leave it for an hour... Which is what it sounds like it should do, but not what I want, or what it WAS doing!
2) My backlight doesn't come on until I have fully unlocked the device... So I can't see the keypad or unlock button in daylight. My Artemis doesn't do this, the backlight comes straight on.
Any ideas are welcome
Thanks
LP
Wouldn't mind knowing about a reg tweak for the backlight/lock issue myself...
Screenlock? and backgrond light
I'v managed to get a screenlock function to work really nice. The Polaris is now always locked on start, exept for Answer/Reject soft and hardware buttons, plus that I can shut down the ringing with the volume button. Really nice.
The program that does it is Autolock. You find it att http://www.intelliott.com
The backlight problem was solved via a register hack found on this site.
At
\HKCU\ControlPanle\Backlight\LockLevel
Rename the folder to LockLevelX.
Does work even if the handset is soft resetted.
Thanks peta§,
That reg hack works pretty well
Any chance of a little more detail on the registry tweak. The backlight issue is really starting to annoy me.
Thanks
I followed the instruction in this link. It was quite easy:

peta§,do u know any registry tweak in order to disable key lock permanently?
Cheers Peta,
Worked a treat however, I don't understand why this was not done at the manufacturing stage unless it was purely an oversight.
Thanks
I agree MusicArtist, it should be activated in WM6 from the start. It's very interesting what can happen when you take your phone out of the pocket when a reminder calls for your attention, or a SMS or call is incoming and you by mistake presses some functions on the activated screen.
dene3erw, disabling key lock permanently? I don't follow. Do you mean the Autolock?
If so, ýou can find an icon in the Program folder, just to tap on it. It enables/disables the function.
1. Auto-unlock when sliding out the keyboard.
2. No on screen keyboards when slide-keyboard is out.
There must be ways to make this happen with some hack or app..
Maybe there is, but I could not find it on this forum.
Probably this is what you looking for ?
If it is ........then there is just one small thing left
cool.......
I surgested in the gyrator2 topic to add the slide keyboard to the events options, who know this might turn out to be my ideal phone
S2U2 has the unlock feature you are wanting and now can also be unlocked by pulling out the stylus.
-To unlock when the keyboard is opened just enable the setting "unlock when screen is rotated"

I went to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip then created a DWORD named TurnOffAutoDeploy with value 1
Soft reset the phone
Slide the keyboard out
Then I opened Opera, go to google, then I select the search form and there is the virtual keyboard on screen
What did I do wrong?
Check the registry, is the edit still there or is it gone? If it is gone then retry and them make sure you wait about a minute, put the phone to sleep and then soft reset.
that's an opera issue... i think everybody has this problem
p.s.
Autodeploy SIP can be done from Advanced Config 3.2 as well..

I am using windows 6.5 which has this 'iphone' type slide to unlock, but it only goes on if i lock it through the start menu. On my stock telus rom it auto locked and had you tap 'unlock' and confirm, which was annoying but turns out useful. In my pocket my phone now seems to like to call people and take pictures, so I'm forced to lock it, which is fine, but i wish it would auto lock everytime i put it into standby, is there a way to do this, but not the pin # lock, the slide the bar lock screen?

There is a setting in the S2U2 that will enable the lock when the backlight goes off... also you can edit the registry so that the autolock will come up like it did on 6.1.
I assume you like the wm6.5 automatic lock when suspend. If that is the case download smart lock
http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2009/06...-of-your-default-windows-mobile-6-5-lock.html
and set the setting wm6.5 lock and and suspend lock. after configured, hold end key for 10 seconds to activate it first time.

I installed the cab, but i dont see the application anywhere, its not in my list of apps, nor can i find it through file explorer...any help?
If you installed Smart Lock it will show up in Settings>System>Smart Lock. I know took me a while before I figured that one.
i got it. but it never does anything...
goto the registry and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 1... that will enable the windows lock when you press the button at the top of the phone.
It is located at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd
Make sure your reset your phone after you make the change.
sorry, I'm new to WinMo, what's a program I can use to edit my registry
Resco file explorer has a great reg editor!

Hi AstronusX
Do you know where else smartlock can be downloaded from, mirrors perhaps?
The link posted wont allow me to download for some reason.
I got smartlock also and edited the registry settings but still nothing happens. Any ideas?
Map the top key to launch DeviceLock.exe in the Windows folder using this program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
It will still retain the screen shutoff function, but will also activate the lock.

I just installed smartlock without registry edit, and it works fine on my HD2.
(Only changed the settings in program itself). Maybe the combination the problem
