[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
If you mean the screen un-locking and dropping you on the desktop automatically when you slide out the keyboard, then for the moment you are out of luck.

HTC markets this as a feature, much like the camera button bypassing the lockscreen to get you to the camera app more quickly.

I am glad you mentioned this, though, because I had toyed with the idea of disabling that 'feature' before, but was talked out of it - rightfully so for the time invested in fixing it versus doing something else more productive at the time.

Once things settle down on my end a little bit, this is something I would like to look into - making a toggle switch that enables/disables the various bypasses for the screen lock.

If you notice a few posts back, I made a note to myself to make a toggle switch for switching the default device behavior between hardware and software video decoding. When I get to one, i'll probably get to the other at the same time.

This project is a labor of pure love, i've really fallen into the Android way of doing things. I've never used a consumer-grade OS that was this robust and self correcting.

Android really does what it's supposed to do, and manages itself very well. It doesn't try to be the center of attention all the time, and quietly does it's thing in the background when some app has center stage.

Most of the time other operating systems are trying to be front and center all the time, even when you tell it not to be.

I really desire to move my whole computing experience over to Android exclusively, as soon as the software and hardware catches up with the idea. When I can compile a kernel on my phone, that day will have come.

( ... surprised it's not here, actually, the damn doubleshot is more powerful then the laptop i'm writing software for it on ... )

I know I haven't given any good updates in the last few days, and that's been because i've been working on Bulletproof almost exclusively around the clock.

Since the changes to the ROM are so sweeping, i'm taking this opportunity to really get everything lined up to make this as close to a finished production piece as it can be at this time.

I've optimized and re-compiled a lot of the core apps at the heart of the whole operation, and have really kicked up the performance of this software package on the device.

I'm really working as quickly and efficiently as I can be, which gets better every day the more comfortable I get with the suite of tools i've assembled.

I'm also taking some pretty in-depth notes on what i'm doing here, so when I get the update finished i'll be able to sit down and write up a handful of tutorials describing how I did what I did. Good summary/review for me, helpful for others to refer to.

...and, one last thing:

In case anyone doubted my dedication to this phone and developing exclusively for this device - here's the source of my giddy mood:

I just got my second doubleshot in today - bought another one to aid in the development process. One of my bottlenecks in productivity was having to wait for the device to do stuff while I wanted to do other stuff to it.

This should not only increase my actual devving speed, but also drastically cut down on the physical time invested in testing. I can be testing on one while working on something else on the other.

I can also do better in-house bluetooth work now with a second smart-device to play with.

I thought I was excited before with losing myself in Android programming - I can't relate how ecstatic I am to see two doubleshots sitting next to each other in front of my keyboard.

I'm gonna take a break now, didn't realize it was thursday already. Once I get something to eat and a shower i'll be jumping right back into it, but things are really coming along now.

Thanks for all the support and help you guys have given me with the field-trial of 1.0, it's really helped shape what's coming down the pipeline. The more I come to understand how people are using the device, the better I can make it.
