I would love for the screen to turn on when I open the keyboard. I just don't want it to happen in my pocket

So this fixes the issue with wake up when the keyboard is opened.

However, I use the standard windows mobile locking mechanism. Opening up the keyboard unlocks the lock. Although I see how someone might want this to happen, I don't.

Is there a way to prevent the keyboard being slid open from unlocking windows?

Thanks,
Nite Rider

Thank you, I found this really helpful. I noticed that even the slightest movement in my case could cause the device to unlock, very annoying my phone too has dialed out from my belt holster. Thanks again! ... This is fantastic!

I have had an interest in disabling the sound while in a call. I searched the forums at PPCGeeks and also XDA but noticed that no one had posted a method to disable the sound. After multiple registry edits, ROM upgrades, unlock/locking the phone, I was able to locate a hidden feature called "MUTE" that appeared to work while in a call.

I was dissapointed to find that the "MUTE" function was reset the moment a new call came in. I have tried adding a DWORD value to HKEY/LOCAL SETTINGS/MICROSOFT/CONTROL/PHONE/SOUND/MUTEON with a value of 1 but to no avail. Any suggestions.

I have an easier solution for you NMHUSA. The 2 buttons on the bottom left and right of your TPRO, just don't press them when your phone makes that ungodly "ringing" sound. This preemptive strike negates the need for your mystical always mute reg key.

Is there a way to get the keyboard not to launch the touchflo shortcuts menu when it is opened? I hate when I am in something and I open the keyboard and then I have to start all over.

First off, I disabled TouchFlo, and I am using the Default Windows Mobile desktop along with iLauncher (which is priceless to me). I use the same 'Device Locked/Unlocked' today screen option as I did with WM5. However, while its in the official sprint rubber case and clipped on my belt, sometimes the keyboard opens a bit, and this automatically unlocks the phone. Is there a way to prevent the phone from auto-unlocking when the keyboard is opened?

your phone is upside down in its case then... just flip it over.. i use the stock case and keep the camera closer to my inseem, never had an issue with keyboard moving and waking ohone up, hence i never accidently call people either or open up commands..
