Lock program

s0rtd · #1 (**permalink**) 03-07-2007, 04:39 AM

Just wondering if someone knows of a good lock program that leaves me able to still use the buttons on my device to control TCPMP while listening to mp3's.
I have tried onlock but even though I have selected in the lock prefrences to leave the keys enabled, they are still locked, either that or tcpmp doesnt have focus when the device is locked.

your help is greatly appreciated.
cheers
Jurgen

As far as I know, most if not all lock programs are designed to lock all keys to prevent accidental dialing, app launch, etc. So, if you want the keys to remain unlocked, what exactly to you want the lock program to do?

I assume your trying to save battery and put the phone back in its case?

To save the battery just hold the top power button down adn it will dim the screen.

There is no real way to lock the buttons and have the software still work unless you go to freecabs.de and find their screen lock software.

Use it carefully, you have to hold two buttons down to get it to unlock and it wont always unlock for you.

With my treo650 I used an app called "Freedom" that allow to control the mp3 player with the button of headphones (play/stop/next, ecc), and the screen and keys of treo locked.

does anyone know if this app exists for wm?
