PocketShield Screen Lock - Page 5

I like this app, but have 1 issue. Seems after several hours of use, sometimes when i unlock it, the task bar across the top is gone. have to soft reset to get it back. I can use the touchflo interface and open apps etc. I can even close apps by pressing where the ok/x button should be and it works. Just don't have taskbar. Anyone else seen this?

I think this dialer and the plug in were made for GSM. It gave me the same issues I had on my Mogul when I installed a GSM dialer.

I started using this app and love it... One issue that i cant seem to fix in settings no matter what combo i try..

App is running, i let set on my desk untouched for hours and it never kicks in automatically. I must always press the power button to get it to start and kick in..

What am I missing??

After a call it kicks in just like i have it set to do, but after reading emails, sending a txt etc it doent kick in for some reason.

I've been using PocketShield for about 2 weeks and most of the time it's been fine. However, I am having what may be the same problem that others have reported - sometimes I am unable to slide down the unlock bar and I miss the call. I installed the latest version today and the problem went from occasional to every time.

For now, I enabled the hardware buttons so I can answer the calls by pressing the phone button. This should work for me (I hope). My only reason for getting this was to prevent accidentally hitting the screen and dismissing a call while pulling out of the case.

So long as this hardware button workaround continues to work, I'll be ok with this. FWIW, I tried all of the free options mentioned earlier in this thread and none of them worked reliably on my Diamond.

s2u2 -> gx or whatever.. just rename wallpaper.jpg, or .gif, depending on what you have it set to in settings.

I've seen it. It looks like pocketshield is turning itself off randomly or crashing. If you open the settings program, turn it back ON, then lock and unlock your phone your task bar will return.

Used s2u2 since I got my phone...
...tried pocketshield for the past week and must say it blows s2u2 out of the water - GREAT LOCKING APP!

I had the same problem you had and upgraded yesterday to the latest version that lets you use the center button. Also the slide down works now as well. You should not have the problem after the upgrade that was posted on December 20th.
