Slide2Unlock Registry settings?

Wargazm · #1 (**permalink**) 11-25-2007, 11:05 PM

I just downloaded the newest version of slide2unlock from here:

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-...ck-v1-216.html

It's a good app, but I hate that I have to hack the registry to customize it...it's not only annoying, but it's nearly impossible to know what values are valid for which keys. Is there some documentation out there that I don't know about? even better, is there some customization utility out there that I don't know about?

Thanks for any help.

I know it comes with some type of readme file...and it explains all the entries, people always asked about the reg hack on this program, but I have never needed to go that far..since most of the functions are on the program itself...at the end I always end up uninstalling due to the approx 5mb of program memory usage and slowing the 67 down.

Just remember to d/l 1.21........ 1.216 is just that a hotfix like a patch follow the instruction ..... and that is it....it is pretty straight forward.

I have to ask how trust worthy is this mahmood1.com site. I downloaded their config file. I just happen to double-click by mistake. My ZoneAlarms kicked in and said that this program is trying to access the internet. Is it normal? is it " phone-home" with information?

somebody try it and see.

That is werid....never had this problem........I have d/l stuff from this site in the past S2U...etc.and everything was fine and my pc is pretty up to date with firewall...antivirus...spyware....etc.

Dont use S2U 1.21/1.216.

This one S2U2 v.86 from xda has a very nice interface and works well, low program memory usage, light on the 67 and pretty much as the bells like S2U......

As Weedahoe also stated....if you want to change the clock outlook d/l the clock package unzip the files....read the readme......

Weedahoe....dont know about v.85 but v.86 I do not have that problem with the today screen popping up for a sec before the S2U2 after the back light has turned off....maybe cause i dont put the 67 to sleep ....just the black light is off......so when I touch the screen....the light comes back on.

Ill try the v0.86 and give some feedback to see if there is any change. THX bro.

[EDIT]

Yeah, I havent thought about letting the screen lock and the backlight completely off but the background still on. On mine I have the backlight go out after a duration and then the screen itself turn off. So sometimes when I press the power button to turn on the screen I get the Today screen for just a split second before the S2U2 screen kicks in. maybe it wasnt meant to be used the way I do but rather the way you have yours.

So I did the upgrade to v.086 and it is a bit better to where I dont see it nearly as much but I do catch it from time to time. What I would like to see is a small and brief walk-thru on what each setting does in the S2U2 Settings.exe

Anyway, THX for looking out Unknown Zone.

I remember A_C made this version kinda like the clean and simple version of the S2U that he has on the other www aka 1.21/1.216, but just looking at the xda www it is starting to have all the bells just like the S2U. This version S2U2 v.86 might be lighter on the 67 which is a good thing

I wonder if it still eats up approx 5mb of program memory, like S2U?
