Alright , what exactly I have for you guys , is a script that will toggle your screen off after a certain delay in seconds from becoming awakened by say a text message , or searching for service . This increased by battery life exponentially !
some other lockscreens already have this ability (PocketShield) I purchased pocketshield , liked it , then flashed to a windows mobile 6.5.x build and found that lockscreen to be phenomenal . I love how when I get a text it unlocks firectly to that convo instead of to the sms app like pocketshield did . I also loved pocketshield's ability to screen off in a few seconds . Which the WM lockscreen didn't . Even if the screen was getting pressed PocketShield would still turn off the display . WM didn't , so I wrote this script , which now my WM lockscreen is , to me , the best and now my favorite .
In addition , I've tried HD2 proximity screen off and adjusted the reg to make it use the proximity sensor turn off the screen , but there were many times I would get multiple messages at once and the screen would still stay on regardless the proximity sensor was blocked .
the delay time is custom , on first run it will prompt you with a time ! forgot to add that ! lol .
to install:
YOU NEED TO BE RUNNING THE LATEST MORTSCRIPT FOUND HERE

Just run the .cab file
then look in your start menu for "Change Your Delay Time" and click it . ENJOY !
some facts and knowledge:
This only works for those using the standard windows mobile lockscreen . I also use lockdevice which locks my device the second I hit the sleep button. don't worry , im working on a script for those who use another lockscreen , ie throttlelock , and don't have this option .
if it doesn't work for you , post back with your issues and ill be sure to solve them for you !
EDIT: UPDATE 5/29/2011
I made it into a cab file for easy installation .
I also made it so you no longer have to keep running the script every time you power off / soft reset . your settings are saved , and when you power on , the script automatically runs . so you do nothing .
I also made another script so you can change the delay time on the fly just by running the program located in your start menu after you install the cab . THANKS FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT
UPDATE: 6/10/2011
Instead of the screen just simply powering off . It completely goes back into standby . With the old cab , if you were to put your device to standby , then turn it on , and let the script power the screen off . If you pressed the end key you could hear the beep and see the lights come on . Now it truly goes back to sleep .
UPDATE: 10/18/11
Added a CAB that upon installation it will always unlock your phone to the today or home screen .
AND PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE , IF ANYONE HELPS YOU , JUST CLICK THE THANKS BUTTON , IT TAKES TWO SECONDS
