Changes of v2.34
- changed option "Lock Message Preview" to "Disable Message Preview" to reflect the function meaning.
- added option "Snooze time (5, 10 or 15 min)" (S2U2 Settings > General).
- added "tap here to cancel" on the notification prompt.
- removed options "Slide to dismiss/cancel", "Dismiss Notification once viewed", "Mark SMS as read once viewed" and "Mark Email as read once viewed".
When a notification is shown, always slide to left to view; slide to right to dismiss; and tap the notification to cancel.
- when there is not enough device memory to cache a GIF, show error message on background.
- delayed the "On wake-up, unlock by Proximity Sensor" so that it always happen after "power off by Proximity Sensor".
- fixed occasionally "slide to snooze" did not work.
- fixed occasionally hard to move the slider.
- fixed S2P playback was interrupted.
- fixed the system InCall Proximity Sensor was occasionally disabled.
- fixed occasionally "slide to view" did not work.
- fixed occasionally "slide to dismiss" would unlock as well.
- fixed occasionally graphics shown messy when volume button is pressed.


Changes of v2.33
- changed the "slide to dismiss/cancel" option to the right-hand-side of the slider so as to synchronize with the OS.
(Sorry for the confusion caused so far)
- added option to lock all message/notification/task preview when "Lock System Notification" is on (S2U2 Settings > General).
- added option to auto snooze an active alarm when power off (S2U2 Settings > General).
- added "slide to snooze" when an alarm/reminder is shown on the lock screen ("Lock System Notification" must be on).
- added option to shuffle the password keypad (S2U2 Settings > Password).
- extended the "Lock on Talk" to lock the dialing screen if CallerID is enabled.
- added support to the proximity sensor of HD2 (probably also Pro2):
1) when the device is locked, turn the device off if the proximity sensor is blocked (S2U2 Settings > Power).
2) when the device wakes up, unlock the device if the proximity sensor is not blocked (S2U2 Settings > Power).
* the auto lock/unlock will be temporarily disabled if there is a message prompt (e.g. Alarm/SMS) shown on the lock screen.
- added option to show current weather info if weather info is shown from Pocket Weather / TouchFLO 2D / TouchFLO 3D (S2U2 Settings > Information). If you want to know why other weather applications are not supported yet, read the FAQ.
- added option to cache each frame of a GIF wallpaper by device memory (S2U2 Settings > Wallpaper).
This option reduces the memory usage of S2U2 when uses a GIF wallpaper; it loads faster & capable to load very large GIF file (depends on how many free device main memory is left). But it also consumes the device main memory; lesser smooth animation; & definitely consumes more battery.
- added option to toggle the system volume ("slide to ringer/vibrate") when the slider is positioned at center (S2U2 Settings > Appearance).
- added option to change the sliding text size (S2U2 Settings > Appearance).
- added option to lock/unlock when the device is connected to a cradle (S2U2 Settings > Others).
- added option to not to lock the HTC long End key press (S2U2 Settings > Advanced).
- added a small music icon on the system bar to be shown if any one of the following music applications is running:
S2P, TouchFLO 2D/3D Music Player, Windows Media Player, MortPlayer, Pocket Music, Pocket Player & Nitrogen.
So if you suspect S2U2 is draining the power, check if a music icon is shown on the top system bar. When either one of these music applications is running, S2U2 will not turn off the power, but only turn off the screen.
- some minor bugs fixed.

v2.33 start from post 4713.

Changes of v2.30
- added option to replace the WM6.5 system manual lock (S2U2 Settings > Advanced).

- added option to change the position of the slider, either left or center (S2U2 Settings > Appearance).

Changes of v2.24
- added option to change the information text size (S2U2 Settings -> Appearance).
- fixed an occasional system hang when stopping iLock2 & ActiveSync was running.
- tried to maintain the system idle time when the device is locked (when "Don't lock system" is turned OFF).

- fixed the system SMS notification was not dismissed after reading the SMS on some devices.
- fixed the long press Answer key problem introduced by v2.22.
if the long press Answer key function still cannot be assigned normally, stop iLock2 & then delete the \windows\long_send.lnk first.
- fixed an occasional issue that S2P was invoked during BT file transfer (again).
- speeded up the transition between different orientation.

If you still experience power drain with v2.21, please try out the beta build of iLock2 at here.

Changes of v2.21
- renamed "InCall Lock" to "Lock on Talk"; additional option for using external power; and moved to S2U2 Settings -> Power.
- added option - "Don't lock system"; when it's on, the system will behave the same as the old version. (S2U2 Settings -> Advanced)
since v2.20, when S2U2 locks the system, the system will behave as it's locked by the system built-in lock.
however, on some devices, it may lead to some not-welcome behaviour when locked:
for eg, on Omnia/Omnia II, the backlight will be dimmed; on some devices, unlock will always go to the home screen.
but there is a draw back when this option is turned on: some keys or system functions can be activated even it's locked.
- added to show the divert call status on the lock screen.
- a few minor bugs fixed.

Changes of v2.20
- removed the option "lock the device after any phone call when Bluetooth is on".
- added option "InCall Lock" (S2U2 Settings -> General)
either don't lock the device during a phone call; always lock; or only when Bluetooth is on.
if CallerID is enabled, connected time of the call will be shown on the lock screen.
- added option to release the Volume Control key lock, i.e. adjust the volume even it's locked. (S2U2 Settings -> Phone)
- fixed an occasional issue that Dotfred's TaskMgr would hang when running S2U2 since v2.x.
- fixed the small volume bar of the VGA/WVGA S2P control plugin.
- fine tuned the CallerID and S2U2 Settings for HTC Pro2 & HD2.
but it's not recommended to use the CallerID together with the WM built-in lock.

Volume Control shortcut
If you need to manually map a key to invoke the new Volume Control, extract the S2U2-VC.LNK from this file (s2u2-vc.zip) & transfer it to your device's \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\S2U2 (for Non-English device, it varies), then use any key mapping software (some devices have it come along) to map this S2U2-VC to your preferred key.

But it assumes S2U2 is installed at \Program Files\S2U2. You may read HERE for how to create a LNK file.

With S2U2 caller id disabled and the stock caller id enabled (As I can't disable it unless one can do it via a value change,) my Diamond works fine.
If I enable S2U2 caller id, I have problems regarding lock ups, unable to answer calls, double caller id, etc.
