TouchLockPro v1.9 12/21/08

Hopefully the bugs are fixed

Summary
There are already a lot of applications to disable touchpanel and/or hardware keys for the Touch Diamond and Pro. I added the next step of improvements:
* lock using the Power button, BattClock and/or Stylus Sensor
* auto-unlock by the Light Sensor
* unlock using triple touch of the Capacitive Sensor
* unlock using Stylus Sensor
* unlock when on AC/USB power

Supported phones (known)
Touch Diamond
Touch Pro
Sprint CDMA Diamond
Touch HD (only triple touch capacitive sensor for unlock does not work)

Version 1.9
# added TAPI support
# added AppToDate support
# show -1 when battery gives BATTERY_FLAG_UNKNOWN (so no 100% is shown)
# fixed TouchLockAction Screen ClockBackground and ClockForeground
# reset to default settings button added in Setting screen 1
# added About Box with hyperlinks (so you can donate if you did not already
# now in all occasions the input is enabled at power off/screen off, so all power on problems should be solved by this now (EnableInputAtSuspend setting)
# LockWhenIncoming = 1; // lock when there is an incoming call
# UnlockWhenConnected = 1; // unlock when call is connected
# ScreenOffWhenConnected = 1; // screen off when call gets connected, to avoid presses with your ear
# EnableInputAtSuspend = 1; // enable input at power off/screen off to avoid power on problems
# UseStylus = 1; // when false, it will not react on stylus changes
# UseTAPI = 1; // when false, TAPI will not be loaded
# DateDDMM = 0; // show date in DD-MM instead of battery percentage
# DateMMDD = 0; // show date in MM-DD instead of battery percentage
# StylusOutDisablesLockMode = 1; // stylus out disables lock mode, yes or no
# SuspendOnStylusIn = 1; // stylus in suspends the phone, when locked
# SuspendTimeOutPowerOn = 30000; // suspend when the phone is locked and the suspend time has expired
# CommandCallIncoming // command to execute at incoming call
# CommandCallConnected // command to execute at connected call
# CommandCallEnded // command to execute at ended call
# CapacitiveTouchesSequence = 222 // now you can configure the sequence order of area 1, 2 and 3 to unlock. More/less than 3 touches is possible. So you can also use this as a security unlock, if you disable the other unlock possibilities, including the UseStylus.

Oh man that is amazing

Version 1.9.2 is out, which fixes one annoying bug, that it sometimes does no longer lock after an outgoing call.

When I had problems with TLP, I switched to >> PocketShield << which is a similar app.

The latest version of PS is totally AWESOME IMHO. It is not free, but worth every penny IMHO.

I'm going to try it yet again. TLP often locks up tight until i pull out the stylus. I'm sorry I said this was the best .

I guess this shows how different system react differently to the same program. I still think this is the best (especially the latest version)

I have not had a single problem with it, I have it unlock with either a finger swipe, a push of the center button or by light sensor. The latest version displays the date & time.

The PocketShield dialer makes the phone ring almost instantly & now works with the stock WM6.1 volume control. I LOVE this program.

I agree with John's assessment of PocketShield. There are some issues (sometimes slide to answer doesn't work correctly, isn't really very apparent how to slide to unlock for someone using it the first time - wish there was a top bar above the clock, etc.) but its a pretty good app - fast and easy on the battery. Not sure I would pay for it the way it is, but it's nice.

How did you get the volumn buttons to work with the pocketshield dialer? I was using the new dialer however I went back to the stock pro dialer because my volumn buttons wouldnt work during a call.

I just installed (for testing) PS becuase 9 times out of 10 I could not unlock TLP with the touching method. I either had to wait for the light sensor to unlock or pulling the style out.

I think it might be a biological function. Bio sensors that we used at work once had a very hard time reading my thumb print.

So far PS seems to be working well but it's only been 1/2 day.

YMMV,

In the latest version of PS (that came out a few weeks ago), when you enable the PS dialer it asks if you want the volume control to work. If you say yes, it quickly installs a cab file that allows the PS dialer skin to work with the stock WM 6.1 volume control & it works perfectly.
