I will see if I can use No lock with Tasker to set up a delayed task or something, but that will have to wait until after the work day.

NNB

I tried that... and guess what... the Tasker built in screen lock is so easy to bypass. Try holding down the home button key and you should be able to kill the lockscreen... it's no-brainier since anybody can do it even if it happened by accident. So .>.> it's not reliable.

What we really need to do is to configure tasker to disable all hardware keys except the power button and somehow keep it locked until you input a password. and I'm still trying to figure it out... either it's not possible or maybe locale might help but that's the more expensive route to take.

I also have locale but need plugins and I've yet to decide which ones to get.
