To annoy people with iPhones, mostly

Seriously, the screen lock is such a PITA to use, this just works, and if you enable the dpad to unlock its simple to power on + ulock without touching the pen, or 99% of the time just power on look at clock and calendar (and weather) and it powers off 10 seconds later...

Drakeford....you definitely want to start by installing the v1.00 CAB (the first link you list)

As far as the language packs go, you only need to use one if you want anything other than English on your device.

The clock pack is totally optional, there are just more clocks you can place in the five clock files A_C has in the GFX folder.

To really get a good explanation though I would really suggest reading the first, and DEFINITELY the second posts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381588

My actual situations:

1. Power off phone and put it in it's case and in my pocket. !00% of the time the phone will power on and call the last person that I called an infinite number of times.

2. I learned my lesson and used lock then turn my phone on. Someone called and the talk button was hit so it answered without my knowlege. The phone then proceeded to call them back repeatedly for hours until I checked it.

That is a good reason to have S2U2. Setting that you have to slide to answer prevents the auto answer while in my pocket.

I feel sorry for all the people that lead such busy lives that an extra 3-5 second step gets in the way of their productivity.

I like it because I get a big clock, weather, SMS/Email/VMail counts, and a picture of my daughter up on the screen, which frees me to remove much of the clutter from the today screen so I can have a decent picture there too.

Thanks everyone for the information. I think I'll skip this app. for right now. I have pictures of my family on my phone so I can just view them as I want. I don't want to add another step to get to the Today screen.

Good point, I didn't think about that.

i dont no about you but when i had s2u2 my phone had a huge delay when people tried to call me. i once timed it and it took about 30seconds before my phone would start to ring. so i got rid of the app ASAP..

30 seconds? I would think that before it made it to 30 seconds it would have kicked over to voicemail and your phone wouldn't have rung at all?

I haven't missed any more calls than usual with S2U2 installed, though it is possible it adds a slight delay...but it appears it is a negligible one, at least for me.
