How do I disable auto-unlock?

cbunting · #1 (**permalink**) 11-16-2008, 04:12 AM

Every time I pull my phone out of my pocket it's unlocked and doing something... I found out it's because slide-to-unlock is enabled... how do I disable it? I tried the reg tweak for slide to wakeup and disabled it...but it still wakes the phone up...

Battery Life SUX on this thing, if I can't get it improved, I have to send it back, 5 hours of standby time is insane, how can they ship something so poor?

How did you find this out? And who told you this was the problem?

Well I would assume it's what is unlocking my TP. Every time it so much as moves a half-inch in my pocket, it unlocks... you can try it by locking your phone, and then slide it just a little bit, and let it close, it will unlock it.

Siding the keyboard DOES unlock it but unfortunately I do not know how to fix it so it does not..... I'd like to know though.

install slide to unlock then you won't have that problem.

S2U takes over the whole task of locking the phone. I have a buddy who has the new version installed and he had to take it off because he had problems with answering the phone when it was on.

If this was a setting he had wrong, maybe I'll try it again but i remeber how bad it was on the 6800 and would rather not deal with that buggy mess again.

S2U2 is AKA slide2unlock.

It puts a slider on your screen so that any time you turn it on, you need to swipe your finger.

I have the same problem, and I think all of you have misunderstood it. S2U2 causes my screen to wake up constantly, or at least I think its s2u2 causing the wakeup. It doesn't unlock though, just the s2u2 screen is on. Correct me if I'm wrong OP, but that's the problem I have.

I would never have known if I didn't keep my phone in visible range in my car. The screen turns on constantly, but I don't want to lose the lock feature so I deal with it

there are settings in the newest version that will allow it to unlock when you slide out the keyboard. it also has an option to unlock when the stylus is pulled out. what version are you running? have you disabled that? its in the S2U2 settings. as far as a buggy mess, 1.35 is practically flawless.
