I can't understand what the point of having the two icons on the bottom corners of the lock screen is. If you press them they don't do anything of course because the phone is locked. Can somebody explain this please?
You can remove them if they are such a nuisance, just saying..

You don't press them, you swipe them up providing instant access to those apps. I love the camera one... not sure why I'd need such fast access to the phone, though.

Thanks that works. DOH! But I have swipe lock set because I still have the factory plastic over my phone until my case and screen protector come. If you have a fingerprint or pin lock or password etc. how do you use those?

I am looking for a lock feature that locks the phone simply when you depress the power button. I have come accross all sorts of fancy ways of locking the phone, but not this.
Can someone please point me to this tweak (if it is indeed available)
Try the Advanced Settings of Sensorlock.
Ther is a option in AdvancedConfig, to do exaxtly that

Not free, but I'm using Pocket Shield, and they have a trial you could try.

Which one and version please? Thanks
ok - installed. seems to be what I want. Thanks!
If I don't want to enable that feature in Advanced Configuration tool, is there another way to get to it? Or is there a Cab/App That I can use to lock unlock my phone? I like that ACT lets you lock the screen by pushine the power button, but sometime I just want to turn off the screen not lock it,,,

I can't seem to find this option in Advanced Config 3.3 either.
I'm sure it's probably a well known tip but I only just found it out (Got my Touch Pro yesterday) that you can hold the call end key to lock the device, which is better than nothing but I'd still rather have a way of making the power button do this too.

Could you tell me where i can find the setting in Advanced Config. I can't find it. I just want to lock my phone when i push the powerbutton.

Thanx
Search for
CSDEVCTRL
from the forums here and use it ;-)
Ok, another question on the topic is there a way to add a lock button to the touchflo homepage?
Full Lock???
I have this thing that is bothering me.
When I have my Fuze on my belt ( screen locked using S2U2 ) and I activate Voice Command to make a call or just answer a call using my BT Headset the phone menu will come on with a big end call button in the middle.
Without fail I would move around and nudge the phone with the right force through the case and hang up on whoever I was talking to.
Is there an option in the S2U2 or another way of locking the phone so that when the screen is locked it's really locked?
thanks!
I reflashed and now can't get my device to lock when I press the power button. The device won't lock at all, even when I hold the end key.
How did you get it to lock when you press the power button?
I just downloaded and installed the ROM update(1.48.409) and SD card, Calendar view, SMS function, and digital Picture enchantment hotfixes.
The problem is that my Lock screen/slide to unlock screen is now gone.
I can press any of the physical buttons, and my device turns on.
This is very annoying when I have the device in my pocket.
Could anyone tell me how to get the Slide to unlock screen back?
Thanks!

YES lol
You could have first searched the forums, saved yourself a post, and not created ANOTHER redundant thread, but here's what you do...
Go to the start menu, select lock (bottom left softkey).
It works after you do that.
Incidentally, if you ever have it that you press an email preview in the email tab, and it doesn't open the email, this is the same problem. The fix applies to both issues.
Well, I did try to search the forum, but didn't find anything
Anyway, thanks!

I had the same problem.
Start and then press lock!
After that it started to work properly again

So, basically, the suggestion from above works?
U can just tap on start, that on lock (bottom left). From now on your phone lock will work again (and also opening e-mails from preview).
Is there anyway to add click activation to trackball while the phone is locked? Much like the way the "home" button on an iPhone/iPod can be used to activate the screen while locked. Its very useful when taking the phone out of a pocket to check the time/for notifications or just to unlock quickly
Agreed, that would be a bit more convenient than the top low-feedback button.

Damn! Im glad that I am not the only one that was thinking about this. I hate having to press the power button to check time or notifications.
I wish I would be able to know how to make something that works, but even after spending some time around here I still dont know how.
Use "ScreenModeWidget"...enjoy

Thats close, but its not the same function and its not as useful since at the lockscreen if you tap the trackball by accident the screen turns off again This one, doesn't

Just tap this text one or twice and it will be gone
I've never seen that text at all. I use Nova, if that makes a difference.

Did you try going into the always on display settings and switching the content to show option from home button and clock or information to clock or information? I did that the first day i had the phone and havent seen than message since. I think it might help avoid the home button burning into the screen since it doesn't move at all.

Hello,
One thing I noticed is that when using face unlock, i don't get directly on the home page of the phone, i need one extra click, not very different from a fingerprint unlock...
Anyone knows if it is possible to remove this extra click?
Thanks,

Yes, there is a setting to remove the extra click . Search for Face Unlock in the settings , it's there
In the settings, search for 'face unlock'.
Skip unlock screen
Ah, yes, very good. Somehow i did not go deep enough in the menus... This is great. Relieved.
Thank you both.
