First, what I liked, a very nice looking UI, great slider response, and I was a fan of how it would "lock" and then turn off the screen while Media Player was playing (without interrupting the mp3), it also didn't interfere with calls coming in, or going out, and i really liked that the Touch Cube worked while "locked"

Now, the only reason I deleted it, is that I only got the settings to open once, after that, ever time I ran S2U2settings.exe the screen would go black, and the only way to restore it was bring up Touch Cube. Strangely right before the cube screen came up I could see the whole S2U2 settings app in the background, but when I dropped the Cube down, it would just bring me to Today w/ S2 settings running in background (couldn't make active)

I was able to get into it once, in which time I set Direct Draw to ON, perhaps that was my issue, but I had the problems getting into settings prior to that too. It felt like dumb luck that I got in there at all....


Too bad, I'll try again when .87 comes out.

Setting direct draw to "on" will stop the settings screen from working.

s2u2 0.86 gives me 100% DSOD when setting a clock alarm and putting the phone in sleep mode. It also gives me the black screen when going into settings. Only thing I changed was the idlestate to 0 and time format in the registry. However, it does lock well. Looking forward to an update.

for some reason I cant change the background. I renamed a jpeg to wallpaper and it still wont work in the gpx folder...hmmmm

[tspinning]

pharmdtlc, did you save it as .jpg, or .jpeg, also, did you make sure to stop the ilock app prior to doing the save/overwrite?

Rusty, that is what happened to mine too (black screen on settings)
I uninstalled, and used CeRegEditor to remove the whole A_C key under Hkey_current_user\software, did another soft reboot, and re downloaded and installed and It worked great

how do you change the picture for S2U?

[rusty]

Thanks tspinning! That worked.

Also, whenever the alert text message box comes up, do you get a black screen that covers the background/screen as well?

Hey guys, im currently running both inesoft and S2U2..I love the full screen photo id for incoming callers provided by S2U2 but i hate it's default photo for callers with no photo(annoying flower on a petal)..on the contrary..i love inesoft's default photo for contacts with NO photo's but it's full screen display for contacts with photos isnt big enough for me..is there anyway to integrate these two apps and have inesoft take control for incoming calls with no photos and have S2U2 to display for contacts with photos?? any ideas?

I tried Slide2Unlock Pro and uninstalled it in 30 minutes. It seemed to be a processor hog and it wasn't very responsive. Big NAY from me

[calisoldier83]

is there anyway to remove the big digital clock?

i still say nay to the soft. no offence to the dev or anything, i just feel that the software is still buggy after all its time in the software factory. there are many missed calls, half screen showups, and some other flaws that i feel i can do without....plus, u can use the cube while its there....kind of odd...but many can live with it...
