Looking for a locking program with pin/password

I'm looking for a program like onlock, devicelock, or slide2unlock... but instead of just having a procedure to unlock the phone, it prompts for a pin or password.

I'm aware that there is a built in locking thing in the phone, but whenever I use that, it takes 20-30 seconds to load the today screen after I unlock.

If I don't use the pin lock, the today screen loads with no wait.

deltalock works alright, using a button combination to unlock the phone... but I can't quickly check the time if I use deltalock.

perhaps A_C could configure something with S2U2 to where you enter a 4 digit code to unlock instead of sliding the bar or something along those lines... than i guess it'd be called Enter 4 digit password to unlock lol... or E4DPW2U haha... i'll look into it as well but im still learning the programming world...

I think it's just rare that these programs are made because there already is the built in pin code thing...

It's frustrating though, sometimes it lags 20-30 sec after unlocking to load the today screen, other times it loads right away.

I use the builting locking mechnism because my corporate exchange server enforces locking as a security policy. We use PIN numbers to unlock and I have never experience any delay with the today screen loading. As soon as I type in my PIN and hit the unlock button my today screen is there.

after I hard-resetted it works fine, hopefully it doesn't slow down again.

Nope not yet! I'll check though. You guys also should PM him. If he sees that many people would like the app, he probably would be more motivated.
