text message lock

[kporter1500]

Is there an app that will allow me to lock my text message inbox???

so how about a pin code on the lock screen of the entire phone....?

This would help keep prying eyes out of the entire phone.

This only works when the phone had been booted...on a restart the phone is unlocked so no pin to enter.

From a quick google search, XDA had similar questions:
Password Protect SMS/ MMS - xda-developers

Seems most of them in the link above go no where.....

I don't use any of these but did find this one in a couple of M$ chat sessions on the subject.

Here is maybe a better one:

Not free but if your looking to keep secure, only $20.

And last edit:

This is one I used for a bit but took off after I got tired of the password....it does what it says....and its free and if you have issues can post on XDA what your issues are.

would like to make a couple of corrections here.

1) the lock screen can be set to pop up everytime the device wakes up from sleep or at a minute interval. however this has been proven to be buggy in the stock 6.5 rom which is what the OP is using, it works flawlessly in 6.1 and older as I had been using it on my Dell axim x51v till I got tired of having to enter the password everytime.

2) its MS not M$ that's annoying as hell. its no different than those iDiots or Linux lunatics out there when they say things like windoze,winblows,microshaft,and microshit.

i am mobile at the moment, but do a search for SMSFilter... it filters specific contact's incoming texts into a locked password protected area.

I used to use the pin lock and it always came up when restarting and after the minute intervals or sleep and wake. who knows to pull off the battery cover to restart a tp2 anyway besides all of us here on the forum?

thats just it.....a quick google search and you got it.

so not so secure any more....

Think of it this way, loose your phone. Even if you have a PIN on the lock screen, someone can still get into it and find all your stuff.

well I have another method , when taping the text message icon , have it run a script requesting a password . then upon successful entry , have it run tmail.exe . its not fool proof , as if you have time , you can easily navigate to tmail through file explorer . but it would keep nosey people out .
