Currently, I am using G-Alarm 0.9.4 with S2U2 1.35. The alarms does display correctly for me on the screen. G-Alarm seem to have no problem interrupting S2US (in locked mode) when it's time for its alarm to go off. I haven't notice any problems that S2U2 may have with other programs yet, but then I did not have a lot of time yet to test/play with the phone. I have not use Pocketshield before. Thank you for mentioning an alternative. I will give it a go and see how it compares to S2U2 (although S2U2 is pretty darn good already as it is). Thanks.

One setting I did disabled in S2U2's settings is the "Caller ID" option. I preferred to have access to the Touch Pro's "call respond" screen (or whatever it's called) which has the option for you to "send text" to the caller with a text message such as 'I am busy right now and will get back to you later.' (this default text message can be changed). Depending what you selected here, it then goes to the "call connected screen" (with options for mute, speaker, etc). If "Caller ID" is enabled in S2U2 settings, after it displayed the caller's pic (if available), it skips the "call respond" screen and goes right into the "call connected screen", which will not have the option of "send text" to caller because you would have already answered (connected to) the call.

Also, I been using "Direct Draw" instead of "RawBuffer" for "Display Mode". Didn't notice much difference in battery drain. If anyone find this different, please post.
