Have the same problem here. I've already mentioned it in this thread, but there is no 'real' solution. The only thing that works is if you disable the buttonlock in your device settings (Settings>System>KeyLock>"Do not lock buttons"). But then on every keypress your device will unlock...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] barakafritt:
Yesssss. I found someone else with the same problems as me !

I tried many things, modifying settings for my connection, removing lots of programs but this doesn't change anything. I didn't have problems until 1.20.... I verified, I have none of your apps, DCHighley. And as you said before, permanent connection doesn't change anything...

@A_C, would u like me to publish my app list too ?

This is a shame, I had to stop using s2l because it prevents data connections from being established. I guess this has to do with the use of TAPI in the latest version (maybe there i something in our configuration that makes you intercept outgoing data calls as wrong events for the TAPI object). If you have any verbose version I'd be happy trying it and letting you know what function is called when the data connexion is dialing (or trying to).

v1.216 works better than the last 2 releases. Battery life is deff better...similiar to v1.19.

Issues:

1) The callerID screen Green & Red buttons do not wokr for me. When tapped, they do nothing. Does not answer nor reject incoming calls. I have to use the hardware buttons.

2)After accepting a call, am I suppose to get the screen on the first page of this thread; where there is a big End Call button??

Because I do not get this screen. I get the system call screen.

Can you try check the wallpaper extension? I think mayb its wallpaper.jpg
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
Thanks Paulo Marques for the testing. Actually I'm also a MortPlayer user though I never touched it's alarm part. :)

@highdood

Then it's a device specific problem that no solution yet.

@Mr Groch

I did answer your post in the readme file & my previous post...

As said, it's PPL's problem that it does not have good support to some WM6 device & Landscape mode, it's no solution yet.

On the other hand, you may use Chris' Slider in this forum. It's specially made for WM6 & VGA device.

@gavro

No standalone iLock, as that's not the purpose of S2U.

@M.A.S.

I can't reproduce your problem. Besides, "BlankOnTalk" uses the same routine in both v1.19 & v1.21...

@maevro

v1.17

@DCHigley & @barakafritt

Pls read your PM.

@freeyayo50

2. pls read the readme or the 1st post.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] M.A.S.:
OK...:(

"Caller ID" uses the same routine too??

Because the only reason that I'm using the v.1.216 are exatctly the "Caller ID".

I would stay with v.1.19 but my Caller ID don't works well (pick up the contact from SIM Card first, without photo).

Thanks a lot for your support.

Adding "speaker on" to DialedID

A_C

I'd like to suggest adding a "speaker on" button with the "end call button". This is somewhat of an irritation when I need to use speaker phone when I am dialing and want to use speaker to listen in. Now I can only hold and listen to the phone and only switch to "speak on" using the phone dialer.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] snorlax:
Can't you hold the green hardware button in order to activate/deactivate the speaker phone ? Yes I know it's less "sexy" than a software button on the screen, but this could work until A_C chooses to add this functionality, right ?

I am having an issue maybe you guys can help me with. I searched the threads, and couldn't find any reference.

I have slide2unlock set to show the next appointment, and I do have a couple of appointments set on my calendar. The very next appointment is at 10am GMT-3 (Argentina), and it shows in calendar as 10am, but slide2unlock shows it as 1pm (that is GMT), as if it was using Universal time instead of Local time. Do you know how can I fix this?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] new2city:
If you read back into the thread, you will find that to get incoming caller picture at high resolution, one of the way is to use Pocket ContactManager instead of the default contacts to assign your photo ids...

I have three, Wisbar Advance 3, Wisbar Advance Desktop and PhoneAlarm. I believe all three "activate" when the device wakes up.

Any thoughts on the GPRS issue? I seem to remember another app on my phone that had this problem -- if you can't come up with anything I will see if I can dig up what that was and contact the developer to see what he had to do to fix it.

thanks for the nice app, its really handy! but it seems to changing the font size on my touch flo menu with 6 tabs. The fonts have increased in size and look more like blocks. Not looking good though! any ideas what might have happened to them?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Trekvogel:
Thanks for the great app. 1.216 works great on my Touch. No battery drain problems anymore. I did notice one issue this morning, I'm not sure this is your fault however. This morning my boss called me, caller ID didn't recognise it as my work calling though. I've stored my work number with just a company name and no first or last name. Other contacts work as one should expect. Could it be that slide2unlock only shows contacts with first or last name?

Slide2Unlock won't load

Hi I am new to this so maybe I am doing something wrong. I loaded the latest version of slide2unlock and when i go to open the program the wallpaper won't load. Am I doing something wrong? Can someone help me?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Morbius:
Problem: date truncated in the middle of the screen

Slide2UnLock is a great application and I am willing to use it, however, I have the following problem on my PDA:

When, after a soft reset, I use Slide2UnLock for the 1st time, the date is correctly displayed in the whole length of the screen. However, for any subsequent use of Slide2UnLock afterwards, the date will be truncated in the middle of the screen: it will only appear on the left horizontal half of the screen. For instance, 'Sunday, 9 September 2007' will appear as: 'Sunday, 9 Se'.

I must specify that my PDA is an ETEN Glofiish X500+ and it has a VGA screen.

I have made a search in this thread but could not find anything. I must admit that I haven't browsed through the entire thread (but, frankly, who could do it when it has, as of today, already 143 pages?(!)).

If the remedy to this pb is known, or if the answer is somewhere in this thread, I would appreciate if someone could point me to the exact location.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jasonaw:
Didn't know about the green hardware phone button to activate speaker phone. So that fixes it for now for me. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freeyayo50:
After reading the 1st post, I still cannot get that call screen. I think it has something to do with the buttons on the screen not working. When i use the hardware button to answer the call, it goes to the system call screen instead.

Im going to do a test. I'm going to revert back to v1.19 and see if the buttons work with this version.

To get slide 2 lock to work on your mogul (6800)

did you have to do anything?

I installed it and it works, but will not load after i hit the power button or anything, it only loads if i open the slide2unlock app file...

and if i use the slide2unlock configure app, everytime i load slide2unlock or it trys to load i get an error saying it has a problem reading the background... even tho i didnt change anything to do with the background...

any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
I think the big red button with 'End call' on it is for the Dialer ID screen, meaning when you dial a number in your Contact with a picture. Go to registry and activate 'Dialer ID'.

Not sure about the green and red button problem. I've not experience such a problem. Sorry, can't help you on this one.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] neonstorm:
Hi A_C!

After a couple more days with 1.216, I have noticed an issue. All seems to work well with S2U until I receive the first call. After that, I start experiencing a few symptoms. Some are simultaneous, other times it's just one at a time...

1. 'Unknown caller' on caller id. This seems to happen intermittently, and when it does it seems like it may cause #2 and #3 to start occurring. I haven't verified this though.

2. Programs become VERY slow to load. I can open the start menu and interact with the today screen as normal, but to open, say, file explorer takes about 20 seconds.

3. When I receive an incoming call, the phone rings but there is no indication on the screen. I can switch between programs and even open the phone app, but there is no indication of an incoming call. Neither hardware button will work either.

All of this continues until I soft reset. Everything is normal until #1 pops up again...

Thanks for your hard work!!

I figured out the problem with the screen buttons not working. AE Button Plus was conflicting. I had the left & right soft keys set for some other functions. I made some changes and now the on screen buttons work fine.

Im not understanding the DialerID screen. I have DialerID set to "1" in registry...now how do I get to it? How do you dial a number while Slide2Unlock is active.

Launcher Showing Wrong Time

Sorry, I might be the only one that have this problem with the time on the launcher off by 2 hrs. The slider time is correct but the time when you get to launcher screen is off by 2hrs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
Hi

Glad that you figure out the cause of the problem.

If I remember correctly, you have to let S2U reside in RAM, meaning set 'Closing App' to '0' (this will take up 5+MB of your RAM). When you dial a number, 'DialerID' will auto appear. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
Did you set S2U to activate automatically when your device is awake? Go to registry to change the setting for 'AutoStart' to '1'. Or better still, use the Configurator (see 1st page).

I think all those who are new to the S2U programme should make use of the 'Configurator' programme to do the configuration cos' most of the issues faced are due to inproper configuration of S2U in the registry (which some may not be something familiar with).

A_C,

Maybe should highlight this need in the first page.. or include it as part of of your CAB file (if the author of the configurator agrees to this).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DCHigley:
If you look in the \Program Files\Slide2Unlock directory of your device (that is the default anyway) you will find a file called Readme.txt. It gives you all the switches and settings to do everything. To answer your question specifically though, set the \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\Slide2Unlock, Wallpaper and WallpaperLandscape values to wherever you have your pic...

If you need a good registry editor, they are all over. Just google it... PPC Registry Editor... Yahoo too... Lots-o-good-stuff! :)

Even easier than that, there is, a few posts back, a configuration program for s2u. Give that a try and see if it makes things easier.

Hi and thanks for this great application! I've been using it for quite a while and I must say the addition of "slide 2 answer" is a great improvement, I've always been afraid I would touch the screen while the phone is in my pocket and ringing. However, on my P3600 I cannot reject calls. Would it be possible to implement an option to have the standard red and green hardware buttons, along with the rotating button, also working? Maybe disable the touch screen completely while caller id is on the display?

Thank you!

Pls read your PM. One more question, did the GPRS disconnection issue happened in the old version?

@sohaibkkhan

Why you think this app will change the font of Touch menu?

@Trekvogel

That would happen when the device is just soft-reset.

@supersigma, @zhw410, @divxrippimp, @mattw951

Pls make sure iLock is running.

@Morbius

Just don't run it in native VGA.

Thanks jonnala for the million ad. :)

@neonstorm

It's like a memory leaking sympton. I doubt it's because of PPL & still waiting for an update from Arianesoft...

@jackbnymbl

1. WM2003 does not have the APIs that are needed in this app.

2. I do not have a WM2003 device for testing.

I am getting the screen now for some reason, but it does not stay on the screen. Once the call is accepted, it than reverts back to the system call screen. I thought it is suppose to stay on the DialerID screen.

I've the same experience. I suspect this is the way A_C design it. I like it, cos' at the moment, there's no way to access 'Speaker', etc features from DialerID screen. So, if it doesn't revert to default calling screen, then there's now way to access these features with DialerID activated. :)

Hello All,

I've been using PocketCM together with S2U. Yesterday I've updated my previous version of PocketCM to newer v.1.13, but ever since then everytime I receive a sms the phone goes into unlocked mode... this did not happen previously with older versions of PocketCM (at least I think). All buttons + screen are now usable / pressable. if I dont press anything and wait, after some time (the defined time for the phone to go blocked by S2U again) then it goes into lock mode again... Have any of you had this experience?

Regards,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DCHigley:
This was something that I was going to bring up eventually, but I guess this is a good time/place... :)

The fix for mine when it does this is to turn off the visual notification of the SMS/EMail/MMS. When I do that, s2u handles everything just fine. Personally, it is just a minor inconvenience because all I need to do is switch profiles (I use PocketZenPhone for that) and the problem is gone. Give that a try and see if it doesn't get rid of this on yours as well... Meaning the display notification being turned off... :)

Have a good day!
