Still no luck. I complete uninstall 1.19 and installed 1.20 from scratch. It's the Caller ID function that's doing it rather than Slide2Answer because I can't answer or ignore even if Slide2Answer is disabled. I don't have any other third party Caller ID software (that I know of), so I don't know what could be doing it. It's not an incompatibility issue with the Titan because several people who post on www.ppcgeeks.com that have Titans have it working fine. If you'd be willing to help me, I can send you an export of my registry and a list of installed applications in case any of them are interfering.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] henftling:
I just start the AudioManager, select my song, start to play and then press the Powerbutton.

Light is out & Music is playing.

When I press Powerbutton again, Light is on & no Slide2Unlock is active.

I post my reg settings enclosed maybe it helps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Marshall07:
I quote you the Slide2Unlock readme file.

However people often upload a .reg file to import into the registry (that will set the right values) together with the bmp.

Answers

Hey guys

It's really hard for me answer your problem or request individually. I'm now focusing on the "Unknown Caller" issue, so I have no time to consider any new requests. Your questions are summarised as below:

Slide to Answer does not work

As I said in the 1st post, if it does not work on your device, pls disable it (change Slide2Answer to 0, then restart iLock).

Besides, to mute the incoming call's ring/vibration, simply press the Volume Up/Down as usual.

When answering/declining a call, the keys not response or need to be press several times

Try these steps:

1. stop iLock

2. edit the registry, under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\Slide2Unlock, add a new DWORD with name "CallerIDKeyDelay" & value 60 (decimal) or greater.

3. start iLock & SLIDE

4. try any answer/decline call action again. If still not work, try to increase the value of "CallerIDKeyDelay" & restart iLock.

The "CallerIDKeyDelay" will increase the latency of each key press in S2U/S2A. The unit is in millisecond, so 60 ~ 100 is recommened.

How to not turn off device by SLIDE for listening to music?

Set BlankScreen to 1, restart iLock.

Draining Battery

The CallerID screens need 100% CPU time to run. It's the nature of PPL. Animation means CPU time, in turn means power. That means the more call you receive, the faster your device will run out of juice.

Lastly, most of your questions are already written in the readme. Pls...

@leekp1234, thanks for the report. That mismatched icon will be fixed.

Hey,

I am having problems. In the first verison ever, there was a config file to edit my settings. Now on th 1.20 version, there is none. How would I edit it then? I want to add some features you listed.

I read the read me and I found this:

What does this mean and how do I get to it to edit?

I have some problems with the INI File.

After my installation I was not able to find it so I created one by myself (according to the sample in the readme) an coppied it into the same directory like Slide.exe ("/programs/Slide2unlock")

But somehow all settings are ignored. The wallpaper will not change nor does the date display. What am I doing wrong?

problems with v1.20

Hi there A_C first of all thanks for a realy great prog, been using it since the first version you published.

I tried today to upgrade 1.19 to 1.20 on my HTC wizard but ran into a problem:

Caller ID is not working anymore. When somebody tries to call me I need to unlock the phone and then I can pick up a call. All buttons are locked until I unlock the phone. Also the caller ID screen is not popping up, just the slide2unlock screen.

I've been using the same settings as I did with version 1.19 (enable caller id and so on). Also tried the slide to answer function but that didn't work either.

I just downgraded back to 1.19 and the problem is gone (so the slide2unlock screen flips over to the caller ID screen and I am able to pick up a call).

Hope you can solve this problem.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dominicmcintire:
What are you doing wrong? Not reading. There is no .ini file anymore (for quite a few versions now.) It is registry settings. Read the readme file.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] boyfriendinacoma:
so the unknown caller bug is that for the slide2answer or all around?

FYI

that bug wasnt there on caller id 18.4 it worked fine
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] VandyCWG:
I have v1.2 on my treo, and love the S2A feature..

Only werid thing is, that sometimes during the day, the callerid features reverts back to the old way.....

Is that normal, or should I just do a complete install?

EDIT...Wow..I am the 1000 post in this thread...this thing is HUGE!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LiQuiD FrEeZe:
Excellent program! but im having more problems with this one then 1.19. i had everything working on 1.19 as of 1.20 also but with version 1.20 when its locked and try to go back onto it by pressing the power button to turn it on, it locks up when i power it to wake up and shows nuttin but a black screen. it has done this several times today! i have to keep on doing a soft reset! is neone else having a problem with this! everything else works but it keeps freezing now everytime i try to wake it up. im also having the problem with the slide to answer! i even have it set to 1 sometimes it does the slide to answer sometimes it does the green and red answer buttons. is there a fix for any of this!

I can't understand what you mean here ... Can you explain better?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] henftling:
...man you have a time-out. The time when you begin NOT touching your devce and before Slide will start right?

maybe 1 minute?

in this minute press the power button before Slide starts.

I can´t explain better - sorry
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Benni-chan:
I have the same problem as you have. Sometimes, when I power up my XDA Orbit, the display stays off. Sometimes it only happens, when I'm charging the device, sometimes it's the other way around.

Also the 1.20 version seems to have sort of a memory leak. Just now, ilock used up 6 MB extra to the normal of my program storage. And over the night, the akku was drained from 90% to 14%. Updating to 1.20 was the only change made to the device in the last few days.

Some Clock Fonts Addon

Hi, this is my first post in this forum. I'm Spanish and my english is so bad.. :( :confused: I undestand so well, but I have many problems find the correct words and expressions.

I'm really impressed with S2U, it s a great job and very good design. At first I'm really confused with the configuration method, but now is really easy for me change this parameters.

I want to share my little modification, i maded new fonts for the Clock.

Instalation:

Stop Ilock

Copy *.bmp to ~S2UPath/GFX/Clock

Start Ilock

I've a question about the Slide2Answer.

Reg Settings:

Safemode 0

CallerID 1

SlidetoAnswer 1

I tried to include in Reg: CallerIDKeyDelay with 60 and 90 values.

In mio a701 with slide2answer enabled, the red (power) key are locked. Its a bug?

Sorry for my english.

Bye.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ZeroDark:
A little problem!

Hi and thanks for amazing package!

But there are some problems here! First of all, missed call counts does not refresh properly and the active tasks just shows the total task numbers independents to their occurrence date!!!!!! The second; the call button does not work by trying to dial the previously dialed number (by installing the iPhone dial pad skin!)

:confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fasgiu:
Yes I have this problem on my prophet!

when I installed 1.2 without caller id + slide to answer function everythink was ok. After Enabled thesee funcitons my battery drains 3 times faster. now will try to turn off slide to asnwer and after if don't solve will turn off the caller id function too.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mtb2104:
Hi A_C,

I realized that slide2unlock is not really compatible with a couple of alarm software?

I read in the txt file that is not compatible with SPB time (which I tested and it IS not compatible)... I tried pTravelAlarm and it seems to behave in the same way too?

Is it some settings that I need to have?

I have a Touch with WM6 ROM

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] watchdog:
In spite of all the good work A_C did, I decide to go back to version 1.19. For me it looks that this version is more stable than the 1.20 version.

Why? The last days I had some problems with picking up the phone. The incoming call dialog appears but pressing the green button or the hardware button on my HTC Touch didn't result in picking up the phone. I'm not sure if this has to do with version 1.20 but it is for sure, version 1.19 does not have this.

But nevertheless, I appreciate the work of A_C very much. Slide2Unlock is a standard tool on my pda.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mtb2104:
Hey A_C,

I found another problem which I hope I am not the isolated case again..

With my Touch having 1.20... When I charge the phone and wanted to wake it up... It just refused to...

However, once I unplug it it is back to normal...

Weird...

========================================================Updated

Well I just hard reset it and testing the problem..

It seems fine after hard resetting.....

Let me try to figure out what is causing the problem..

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sesaru:
This don't work for me :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflysocal:
I had this problem with v1.19, but most people didn't, hopefully the problem will be brought to attention. Ironically, so far wih 1.20, if I disable slide2answer but still keep caller id enabled, i have actually had less, if any, problems at all with this issue.

With CallerId disabled, I never have a problem answering the phone on any versions.

Have you tried disabling callerid?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflysocal:
A_C,

don't know if this is a bug or expected behavior, but just noticed that if I am on the dialer screen, and press the power button or let it time out, waking it up with the power button does not activate the slide2unlock, but takes me to dialer immediately.

This is the one page that is most susceptible to accidental dialing, so if this is intentional, please elaborate.

btw, I am referring to when i go to the dialer, but not actually make or receive a call. After a call, it closes the dialer after a few seconds anyways or activates s2u.

Also, this does not happen with any other applications.

Can't remember if this happened with 1.19. Anybody with 1.19, can you test this out?

edit: actually, this sometimes also happens after a phone call especially if i press the power button before the dialer times itself out.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zsitvayb:
Hi A_C!

I found another bug.

When the USB cable is plugged into the phone and I receive a call i can't answer it if i plugged out the phone during its ringing. It freezes while I move the slide to answer the call.

HTC Weather Icons

A_C,

I have to say great work on the App. You asked for us to let you know if there were any mismatched Weather Icons when using HTC Weather. Currently HTC shows Partly Cloudy, but S2U shows Rain. Otherwise with the right Registry settings things seem to be working well. Battery usage dropped some on my Apache, but as long as I remember to change the Registry back to BlankScreen = 0 when I am done using HTC Audio Manager Everything is Happy. Works well enough that 1.19 is cooked in my ROM right now, and once the Unknown Caller Glitch is Fixed, I'll probaby cook up a new ROM with the Latest Version.

Thanks for the Amazing work.

Nice Dialer to go along with A_C's S2U:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mbienz:
On my QTEK9100, WM5 this issue, if it actually is one, appears as well. if the phone app (dialer) is active and a press the power button twice, the s2u app is not being activated.

tell me how I could help / debug.

GREATE APP!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sigmanuclay:
So the Treo owners that have the app installed can use it functionally? I can't seem to get around the end/power button disabling the app no matter how much I tweak the registry. I searched the thread, but found no answers. Did I miss it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] matthew232:
woeks well on my treo, for the most part.

AC: I am still having the issue with the latest build that I have to push the red/power button 2-3 times to wake up slide2unlock. This was fixed in your 1.183 build but came back (I think with the 1.184 build and on). Is there anything else I can do? I have NoSuspend set at 1. The issue is pretty annoying.

Also, I still have not figured out a way to ignore calls when the phone rings. I hitthe red/power button and nothing happens. Is there a fix (for the treo)?

thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] watchdog:
I'll try disabling CallerID and keep you informed.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tomazez:
this is just WOW!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BlackBeauty:
I have a Dopod D810 with WM6 ROM and like you had problems with alarms not sounding in SPB Time. Moving to pTravelAlarm has solved these issues but S2U seems to be very sensitive to the registry settings that you select and how it works with time-sensitive programs like alarms.

Also A_C - when you finish the GUI for a configuration utility, please be sure to include the functionality to browse for wallpapers :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] iHTC:
Any figure this out?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jonnala:
Hmm not even for me.

when i am listening to music I always have fraction of second break in music for every few seconds(say 5 seconds).

it happens only when S2L is running. Issue is noticed only on HTC audio manager. WM player is is fine.

I tried with each and every combination of registry setting. But no luck:( .

Hey guys,

1. Over the past months, I've discovered that the difference between different brand device is really really great. Especially when the app involve the use of power button. So, I repeat, if you tested "slide to answer" not work for you, pls don't use it.

2. Running SLIDE in Landscape mode is a known problem. With the same reason from point 1, if you tested it not work, don't run it in Landscape. I have no solution on that yet.

3. Thanks for the report, ZeroDark. The missed call error will only happen when CallerID is disabled. Will fix it.

4. When on the dialer/phone screen, after the idle timeout SLIDE won't come out. It's on purpose as many users had reported that SLIDE will come out when talking w/ the phone. But it's going to change... :)

5. Thanks jbrianj reminding us that power will be drained rapidly when BlankScreen is set to 1.

6. Seems there a lot HTC users around, could anyone tell me the Window Title of your HTC Audio Player? The exact phase please. I'll try to add this to make SLIDE aware of it.

Finally, could anyone help me to test out the "Unknown Caller" issue? My place do not have this feature, so I need your help. Pls drop me a PM if you could. Thanks!

edit: already got a few responses, no more beta tester is needed. THANKS!

Audio Manager

Hi there

I also noticed this problem with Audio Manager. I found that if I do not disable the screen but let the backlight turn off by itself and enable slide2lock then (automatically) Then it works fine.

If the screen turns off then it cuts out every 5 seconds.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sesaru:
Do you mean to put the option BlankScreen set to 1?

This didn't work in my device ...

Mine is "Audio Manager" also ...

I have been using version 1.20 for the last few days on my Orange SPV M3100. No problems so far.

No I have BlankScreen as "0" But have IdleStart set to "1" This allows device to lock when the backlight goes off (but does not turn off the screen) So when I listen to music the screen is always on but backlight is off to save battery (a little).

@A_C

I tested it now several days.

Are I version 1.20 installed, uses my pocket PC in 6 h 20 MB more RAM, and makes empty the Battery also in 6h.

With the version 1.19 were not these two problems.

Edit: Sorry, me erred, PhoneAlarm is guilty.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflysocal:
A_C,

Here is my brief testing with UnKnown Caller. I have a WM6 Sprint Mogul (Titan) stock ROM.

In my area, dialing *67 before the number will make you appear as an Unknown Caller to who you are calling. CallerId=1 is set.

I did this with slide2answer=0, and was able to see "Private" on the caller id screen. I confirmed this about 3 calls.

I then changed slide2answer=1, first time I called I got the same results. Saw "Private" on the caller ID, i was able to slide to answer the call. The second, third, and fourth times, I saw the "Private" on the screen, but screen froze when you slide to the right and thus cannot pick up the call. However, not sure if this is really an unknown caller issue with me, since i did manage to pick up the first time with the "private" caller. Also, this is really the same problem I had with any callers not just "private" callers. To verify, I called again but not as unknown caller, and it still froze.

btw, my CallerIDKeyDelay was set to 100. That didn't help me either.

So, I am not sure if I am helpful at all, but I don't think I am having the Unknown Caller ID issues others are having.

To the others that are claiming to have this issue, are you sure you are having this issue CONSISTENTLY only with Unknown Callers? Please elaborate like I did.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
OK...here is a new issue for me...In previous versions, I set idlestart to 0, and that enabled my alarms to work through the S2L. They are not working now...I figured it was a fluke the first day or two, but I have been putting it through the ringer, and it is not working at all...my alarm will not work hooked to a charger or not. I may be missing a reg edit I used to have, but I think idlestart was the one that did the trick originally!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ken987:
First of all....ammmmmaaazing. Thank you so much.

I just wanted to let you know I have a relatively new Treo 700wx with not much installed as far as applications.

I have the registry editor and weather panel. If I try to use the WeatherPanel feature on the screensaver my treo freezes. If I don't it works great.

If I do get a call then I too have the problem of the red button not working to ignore the call.

Otherwise it is very stable for me.

Sincerely,

Ken
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
I will try that out on my WX...I freeze all the time as well, and can't pin down why!! I will let you know of any change.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] matthew232:
the red "ignore" power button does not work on my treo WX as well. Hoping there'll be a fix. Do you guys experience a lag too when you push the red button to turn on your screen? sometimes i have to push it 2-3 times (or more) to get the thing to wake up....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ken987:
Since I don't use Weatherpanel = 2

I don't freeze anymore. Been running a day and no problems at all.

The red button will not work to ignore a call but to be honest I never ignore them. I don't get many incoming calls to be honest. I do mostly outgoing.

Also I do have the hit the red button twice to get it to come on. Not a double click but a nice leisurely double press and it comes right on. These are all small prices to pay. I love the new caller ID.

I can not get the Iphone dialer cab to work at all on the Treo so I removed it. But the Caller ID works great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wellconnected:
Yep, same issue. The nosuspend option worked on the 1.19 on a previous install. I installed 1.20 and it doesn't seem to have an effect. Went back to 1.19, and I'm seeing the same issue and nosuspend does nothing to mitigate. Not sure what changed, but it is a little annoying.
