This has many options including locking when screen dims.
I was having problems with my phone unlocking in my case. I only realized yesterday that the magnet in the case was unlocking my phone and causing all sorts of problems.
One caveat. I was having a problem with the stock and 2 other locking programs (including this one) as nothing was working right (though I did not try pocket shield). I think it was the magnet in my case that was really causing all the problems so I am trying this one again because it locks the phone on waking or when it dims (so I never have to hit a lock button). Obviously I am using a different case. |
The cases with magnetic clasps can indeed cause the screen to turn on. I was using my old Treo 700p case with the magnetic clasp and it happended all the time. PS prevented any further potentially embarrassing "butt" calls. Nevertheless, I've also purchased a new case. For those interested, BestBuy stocks one made by DIO and its actually for the iPhones. It is tight at first, but being leather after about a week its loosened up to where the fit is just right now, and it has a velcro closure rather than magnet. Haven't seen the screen come on accidentally since using it.
