How to lock volume buttons while phone is locked?

[elesbb]

I know what the problem is I'm conjuring up a solution

[elesbb]

oh and to whoever said about holding both volume buttons down and taping the screen to bring up the digitizer .. IT WORKS ! why though ? weird shortcut xP

[elesbb]

@horndoctor, im gonna need some helpp . i have a mortscript that will lock the volume buttons , all it does it write a reg value when S2U2 comes active , and writes it back to original when it becomes unactive , however , for some reason it seems that my script isnt waiting for S2U2 to become unactive , therefore it just keeps running the script when its locked . any ideas ?

[elesbb]

Thanks a lot! I'll try the 'screen-off' script with the stock lockscreen to see how it works. As you suggested, I will use LockDevice also.

Now if we can come up with a way to get more than one appointment on the lock screen, we're rockin!

With your scripts, the device will now dim, go into standby, and lock.
If it wakes, it will go by-by after the delay I set.

Who could ask for more? Me. =D> If you figure out the appointment thing, send me a PM so I will take notice.

Sorry about you having an issue with the background in Titanium. Don't have clue on how to change the background with that one.

Thanks. That would cover all the bases: auto-locking, time delay on wake, and for reminders, I use ReRemind.
Once you figure out the appointment thing (and I'm sure you will..=D>),
then the stock Lock screen will be super and I won't need to go back to S2U2 which presented a few issues that could not be resolved.

Apparently so. If you weren't, we would not have those great scripts you wrote which improve the stock Lock, and fix an issue with the volume keys for S2U2 users.

Now we out here in phone land have two ways to go: Improved WM Lock, or S2U2.

Want to consider a new little project? Figure out a way to have the device unlock to the home screen like S2U2.
If the fix was a simple registry entry using a '0 or 1' as the switch, then the user could change it easily, or a cute little GUI like Lock Device.

PS: I entered all my Thanks for your posts. Forgot .

ELESBB,

Update: I have been using 'Lock Device', and your script for 'Screen off when Locked' since my previous post.

They are working great without any issues at all ! Functionality of the standard WinMo lock is greatly improved, though still lacking one or two small features.

I would rather have reliability than a bunch of features that cause issues.

Thanks.
