Auto Lock WM6.5

[kylechx]

So i have been looking for a good program that works w/ WM6.5. Since the lock screen is pretty useful this should be popular.

I have found that VJDeviceLock works well but locks on start up. Problem with this is the convenient call screen when device is locked does not show up since device locks on wake up. But he does provide a screen shut off+ lock program. All that is needed from here is to map this program to the power button .
I attempted the XDA method but this seems to not work for 6.5. So i am now here, asking for input or assitance from others.

For AutoLock you can control, you can us CSDEVCTRL found on xda.

It has worked pretty well for me with 6.5 albeit a little slow sometimes but mostly reliable.

out of curiosity, does this work, say, if someone calls you and the lock would come on before the call so you would get the lock screen call status. or would the call go on before the program could lock it? same problem with the other app. for the lock screen to be accurate it needs to be activated before the phone goes into sleep mode (single press of top power button)

+1 for that app. I really like the simple lock app with 6.5 and this lets you use just that. If you don't need Fort Knox security on your phone, that's what I would suggest.

Just tried it... for me it seems that it locks when you turn off the screen, so it's already ready when the call comes in.

I am seeing the lock screen crash and go straight to black but I am not sure yet if that's a bug in my new ROM build or this lock app. I'm using a custom build from Drellisdee's kitchen release.
