So I usually keep my phone locked because its usually in my pocket. I frequently get text messages and it's kind of a pain to unlock it and relock it each time I get a message. Is there any way for my phone to unlock the keys when I slide it open, and then relock when I slide it closed?
Thanks.

I tried this program too
Potentially it's a nice app, but... Some Remarks:
- It's language dependent. This didn't work on my Dutch s710 ROM, but does work on the English and Polish ROM. Version 1.04i also supports German and French languages.
- Sadly the latest version referred to in that topic, version 1.04i, is no longer available on the site where it was linked. I also googled, but no luck. The other linked version 1.02i is still available trough the link but you have to register on that Polish site (I managed, though my Polish is not that good). And I suspect the guy that wrote it is no longer active at this forum.
Question: did anybody download the 1.04i version and can he/she make it available for download again somewhere?
- The most important problem: it's demo, and therefore it only unlocks the keyboard one time per application run. After one unlock AC Unslide 1.02 closes itself. The funny thing is there is no full (pay) version available that I know of...
Question: Is there any way around this, for example by some auto-restart trick/tool?

Yes. You can use mortscript. As I don't have the app, neither the htc, cannot test anything, but it would be something like this (don't blame me if it's wrong, just following examples):
#RestartAutolock.mscr - Restart the application when it finishes.
result= ProcExists ( proccess name for the autolock application )
if (result < 1 )
{
RunWait( application_filename.exe )
}
Make it repeat each x seconds/minutes/whatever and you're done
If you're curious...
Mortscript
EDIT2: Attached 1.02i version cab (you didn't need to register on the polish site )
That's a nice solution. Thanks!
I just reinstalled the program and found out there is another problem that makes the restart idea impossible... unless you have a Polish ROM, that is.
The app defaults to the Polish language, so when you have an English ROM, everytime you start it you have to press the left softkey and choose the English language (option 2). I tried starting the program with parameters like 2, -2, E but unsurprisingly this did not work.
Too bad... it's a nice tweak.
can someone make it simple?
So I have been looking around and just can't find a proper way of adding a dictionary to an Android phone. Running Froyo on a Samsung Vibrant. I have MoreLocale2 on my phone but that doesn't add the dictionary. It just switches between languages. The gingerbread keyboard supposedly have a Swedish dictionary on there, but I can't see it, which makes me think that I have to have the dictionary on my phone before I can select it, or at least activated.
So my question is this. Does anyone in here know how to do it? Or is willing to investigate? I'm not a programmer, and I have a hard time trying to figure out where the dictionary would be going on the phone.
I'm rooted and running a leaked version of Froyo.
I am also curious about it. I got rooted wildfire with cyanogenmod installed and got English and a couple more dictionaries on it, but would like to know how to install Russian dictionary or at least can some one tell me where is the dictionary file located in the rom it self(in archive).
Performed update to Gingerbread yesterday - Install went smooth - Root went smooth.
By the way - not a total noob, just never actually created an account before - shame on me. Should be thanking people all the time.
Anyway - Today after booting when I try to speak a text message or speak a search in the market the phone thinks I'm speaking Spanish and adds text in spanish (not an actual translation, just what it thinks I'm saying in Spanish). Trust me, I'm speaking English, and I'm not drunk.
Google search feature recognizes my english and creates text in english.
I've checked all the settings in my device and all languages are set to English (US).
I've tried switching to other English formats as well. No change.
Any ideas?
Profile too new to post in Dev Section...
Also, tried updating keyboard to Keyboard from Android 2.3. Nice design, but didn't help fix the issue.
Tried scouring the site for this issue, but don't see it noted anywhere.
Thanks!
Strange
K, oddly enough - this corrected itself when I removed the Chrome to Phone app.
All set.
Hi Guys,
was about to pull the trigger on Amazon to buy this phone when noticed in Q&A section that US version only comes with few languages - not worldwide Android language selection. Since I was planning to send this phones to Ukraine to my nieces, I need to know if it is possible to re enable Russian/Ukrainian and what I would have to do. Root probably? Please only answer if you are sure of the working method, I don't want to just test theories.
Thanks.
I have 6045I and just changed the default locale using a local-changing app. You are right - the choices of language is limited to English, Espanol, Francais or Italiano. If you root your Idol 3, you can change locale easily-all you have to do is install a locale-changing app and run it. But I wouldn't want to go that route and I was able to do without rooting the device. You need to change permission using adb shell pm command (most locale-changing app displays exactly how you change the permission) before running the app.
Not all the menus and messages won't change to the language you change to of course, but you can convert some to the language of your choice. The app I installed has a Russian locale option.
OK, good to know. Thanks for prompt answer and good advise. Since no rooting is involved, phone should stay on the OTA updates schedule and this is very important to me. Could you please check if Ukrainian option is available as well? Girls mostly speak Ukrainian and, if I understand correct, locale determines the responses they are going to see when using any locale-aware app, like Google Market, Facebook, etc.
BTW, I tested this method with my own unrooted phone and it does work, though there is a bag of gotchas. Phone settings reset to English (as probably my phone does not use Android standard settings and the one it uses does not have prper translation), locale-aware apps changed language, but only in places, so it's a mix of Eng-Ukr. OK Google voice activation stopped working in the new locale (I can still use voice prompts, but can not invoke it from home screen with OK Google phrase) and Language settings do not have new option for the added locale, so the only way yo change it if someone changes it back to one of the default ones is through the locale app (I use Locale More Pro app).
Hi. My Mate 9 finally arrived yesterday! I bought the Chinese version. Even though I have chosen English as the devices language, there are several apps that still use Chinese characters, regardless of the set language, like the one for internet and the Dialler. While my long term plan is to use an International rom I probably won't try that till I get the bootloader unlocked, which may be a few weeks. Can any of the apps that use Chinese characters be set to use English? If not is it possible to replace, for example, the internet app with one from the international phone. Perhaps it would default to the language the device is set to. Of course the obvious thing to do is get an app from play store but I thought it interesting to try to get as much of the phone working in English. Thanks!
