Disabling the side scroll button
 

Is there a way to disable the side scroll button? Every time I put my phone in my pocket it changes my ring from vibrate to no sound.



thanks

I dont know if you really want to disable the side scroll button, if you lock the phone before placing it in to the pocket that would stop.

example: "Device Lock or s2u2"

Why not having the options set to lock all buttons except Power button?

the problem is that the slider is still active when the device is locked

You might want to recheck:

Settings/Buttons/Lock and see that "Lock all buttons except Power button" is checked.

That is what I have and the "side scroll" will not work when locked.

I had thought that the slide switch is immune to the native device-lock and its variants under Helmi's WM6 - kind of a known bug. The absolute workaround for me was installing S2U2. I heartily recommend it.

And to answer the poster who asked why not just the button-lock feature -- everyone who ever relied on that feature alone sooner or later had a pocket-calling problem. The screen and all the buttons are operable when the phone occasionally wakes up for notifications, alarms, or syncs.

TMB is correct if you really want the best button lock software.....I also recommend s2u2, It has nice features..etc..many members like TMB and myself run s2u2.

i have tried it once but only for a day and during that time i believe i had a problem with tethering but i am not for sure, it was such a short time i diden't really test it to see if it was the problem, i will try s2u2 again and see if it dose help, do u know the link to the cab?

Better hurry up and d/l, before another update.....this software is updated faster then my gf telling me there was something I forgot to fix on the honey do list.

This is interesting because I don't have the side switch problem that is describe when the device is powered off.

I personally don't like S2U2. I just use the "Device Lock" button on my today screen. I just tap that and it locks the screen and buttons.
