Drives me crazy that microsoft wouldent think to program the lock to automatically come on when put into standby ?
who wants to click start then lock everytime they set there phone down doesnt make any sense i am here to try and find i solution with some help ?
i noticed that if you put a password the lock works perfectly so my idea is to find a way or someone tell me a way to set my phone up with a password then erase that password so it simply does not ask for it after i slide to unlock ?
any ideas.
I prefer TouchLockPro.
there is a cab around here or ppc geeks thats i have used to solve this idiotic problem. dhr lockdevice. try it out works good
her ya go pulled it off my device

You can also program the END key such that a long press will lock the phone. To do so, go into all settings, personal folder, buttons and the long press tab.

Use a regedit program and go to the following value
Automatically lock your Diamond --> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable change it to 0 and do a soft reset.

Edit 2: worked ... had to re-enter reg change
Edit:to disable sip completely use
HKEY_CURRENT_USERControlPanelSipAllowChange (DWORD 1->0)
I tried the first option and it didn't work. I'll try the second option and see the result.
Thanks

That really messed things up. Changing it didnt work, so I tried a soft reset. Once I did, the keyboard was permanently on the screen and refused to go away at all!! Changed it back to '1', did a soft reset and things were back to normal.
If you type something using the HW keyboard when the software keyboard is displayed then it should go away and shouldn't reappear next time.

the first option does work but you have to make sure the change is commited to memory in the registry
try using a program called Ceregeditor
available here
http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/
I couldn't get it to work either, created the dword, saved it, soft rest and checked it was ok, still didn't work
the best would be a method to deactivate SIP only when physical keyboard is open

Yeap,
I've tried both registry chagnges today
First one doesnt work at all, sip is still popping up on thet field
Second one made a little mess in settings - the keyboard stayed all the time, there was no option to disable it so I've roll back settings to default and ... still waiting for solution
Regards
B.
So there is no solution so far or ?
thanks
myrin
I can think of a solution but the problem is who will implement it (it is not so hard):
If the physical keyboard is open it is detectable right? (the system already reacts to it, may play a sound, presents the side sortcuts, rotates the screen)
Why not in addition to those actions, also SWITCH SIP to an EMPTY one? This way even if we cannot easily interrupt the system from trying to pop up the SIP, at least it will pop up a "null" one!
What do you think?
did anyone find the correct solution for this to deactivate sip keyboard when hardware keyboard is opened.

Hey there,
Has anyone seen a cab for WM6.5 to add the "Auto Lock" on sleep?
I've seen this in WDM's 6.5 Vogue ROM but not in any others...
Thanks in advance

the only way i found that it works is when you add a password lock, it will automatically lock after each sleep then

the key is preexisting and you only need to change the value. it is a decimal value.

Anything new here? I've still not found anything that will do this...
Dear jlavoie registry change helped me no need to install third party app. Just great.
I'm using NFSFAN's 6.5V4 ROM and that key isn't in my registry... i wonder why.
I've also tried DeviceLock which kinda works, but the probably being if you don't wait for a while when unlocking the phone, you end up having to unlock twice.
I'd imagine this is the downfall of locking on wakeup and not on sleep...
I wonder if A_C would know how to do this...

When you run this do you have a 3-4 second delay between when you turn your phone on when the lock screen pops up?
I am, running NFSFAN 6.5 v6r2 rom on a sprint touch, and am getting that delay when using this program or any other program I can find. It seems the best way would be to lock the device when you turn it off, or whenever the backlight turns off, but I can't figure out how to do that.
Any ideas?
I was using devicelock for a little bit also, it wouldnt delay but it would make me unlock it twice... which was anoying.
I haven't found the lock on sleep setting on adv. conf 3.3 yet... I'll keep looking.

Hey guys, hopefully you can help me out with some of my queries on customizing wm6.5.
How can i set the lockscreen to be always lit, instead of dim on wakeup/lock. I cant find any backlight tab in the power settings. Is there anything in the registry for it?
What about the constant vibration on normal+vibration mode, can I have it set to the same ryhtmic vibration for manner mode? I know there's an app called VAlert, but is there any registry tweak for it? Also, can I stop the music/vibration for a text after I tap on the screen? As for now, it'll only stop if i press the End Key.
And one more thing, can I remove the BCC CC From to subject fields etc from Messaging. I seem to recall there's a tool for it but I cant remember what it's called.
Thanks =D

It may be under Start->Settings->Personal tab->Lock, or on my current ROM, Start->Settings->System tab->Power->Backlight, and there's a checkbox.

I think VAlert should use a registry tweak to do it. Not sure though... As to the second part, I don't think that's possible...

Not seen that... Although in 6.X ROMs messaging uses html based form creation, so have a look for email.htm or new_email.htm in \Windows, and see if there's anything discernible in there.

I have checked the link you provided and tried what have been suggested but unfortunately they did not work. My LockLevel key kept going back to 0 after soft reset.
Well I might have to just use VAlert in the end. Will check out the email.htm too.

Right... Very odd. Did it work whilst LockLevel wasn't 0? If so, I can write a quick applet that sets it to whatever at startup.

As far as I remember, the screen remains dim till you tap it... Does tapping it bring the screen back to normal brightness?
Yes when I tap it, it lights up. But what I am looking for, is for it to not dim in the first place, to have it light up once you turn it on.

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.

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

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...
