Strange - I put it in my breast pocket of my shirt (upside down), and can reach in and push the buttons and/or the screen. It does come on (in locked mode) for a second, but instantly turns back off. Did you go into the settings and tell it to turn off when upside down? Is the phone upside down?

Yeah, I set that up. Still turns on if I click a button (by mistake). The first time it does shut off, but subsequently may or may not stay on.

I wonder if anyone has a hack that will allow us to set only 1 button or a combination of buttons to turn it on. There has to be something out there. Or, if any of your code geniuses are watching...PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSEEEE!

The absolute fastest way to lock the Imagio is to tap the bottom right soft key "lock" on the TouchFLO today/home screen. One momentary tap and you're done. On mine, because I like the My Info display to show when locked (to allow a kind person who may find my locked lost phone to return it to me) the "my info" screen stays lit for a few moments, but the keys and screen are disabled, so it's safe to drop into your pocket. The screen then blacks out in a few seconds, even in your pocket, usually when I'm halfway down the front stairs. :evil4:

How do you get your info to show on your lock screen?

Settings> All Settings> Personal> Owner Information> Fill out "Identification Screen" with your name, address & email> Options tab> check box "Identification information"
Your phone will then display your name and address when locked, so if someone finds it sitting in the Starbucks or taxicab you just accidentally left it at, you have some chance of an honest person being able to return it. You could also fill out the "notes" tab with something like "please return this phone if found--big reward if you do!" and check the "notes" box instead of the ID Info box on the Options tab.

For some reason this made my phone refuse to unlock. Had to do a hard reset. I'm no configuration wiz so I didn't have anything too fancy running, either.

I wish I had some more info about this issue but I recall reading a while back that there's a glitch with the personal info screen. Jeeez, where did I see that...and what exactly was the issue. New Year's Eve killed off too many brain cells methinks. :drunken:
