I ONCE set it to 5 sec time out (def dumb idea), and now i go and change it, and it still comes up after 5 seconds (i even checked in the reg, and yes, it is changing it)

any idea?
i can uninstall and reinstall it... but i didnt want to, this is the first time i have ever had a FULLY FUNCTIONAL slide2unlock working , lol

[divxrippimp]

uninstall and reinstall fixed it... never mind... this is def the most stable slide2unlock or s2u2, imo...

Turning the phone/screen on and off refreshes the screen, lol... as for the error, it went away without me fixing anything, so i dunno... maybe a reboot?

***EDIT***
This is how to turn off direct draw if you get the black screen in the settings app... there is also a reg key for it
HKCU\Software\A_C\S2U2\DirectDraw - set to 0
.95 works well

Just installed latest version. 1st install of slide 2 unlock.
No other programs installed by me.
Didn't work. Deleted.

I couldn't figure out the "How do you turn off direct draw either".

Anyone have a problem where the lock stops coming on automatically? Im not sure why or when but towards the end of the day, I realize that the lock screen doesnt automatically come up anymore.

is there ANYWAY how to stop S2U2 from constantly locking when the phone is idle for for than like 5 seconds; kinda gets irritating when I'm texting someone and take a 10 sec break and the dang app pops up on locks the phone ... thanks

There is an option to lock when the screen dims. I personally like the feature, but to make it usable I had to change my backlight setting to dim after 30 seconds (instead of 10) when on battery.
