@famewolf

Nice pic.

@lawmangrant

What other software you have installed & running?

Thanks craigiecraigie4

@koukifc3s

Did you set "CloseApp" to 1? There is some problem right now with this setting. Should be fixed later.

SLIDE & iLock never touched the sound system, pls check others.

@pprakash & @$incere

The appointment details shown by SLIDE is simply replicating the Today's screen.

@Sian

For thumb nail mode, it's 60 x 60. For full screen, it's the device resolution.

@wschom

I'm lost... what's the issue you have?

@zaidam & @Mistellisch

Maybe the next version will fix it...

@mr_bobo

Just read, try & learn... what's your device's language? OS version?

Thanks rohanmaini

@davehutch

Got a bug, thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
SPB Traveler

Is it possible to use the weathersource of SPB Traveler instead of SPB Weather. Maybe in next version?

My compliments for this very usefull application.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pprakash:
Thanks for the reply A_C. Its a nice application ..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LlamaV3:
Hi I wonder if you can help me. I've ironed out all the bugs except 1. This is difficult to replicate as it appears to happen randomly, I suspect it happens more if I lock the screen manually rather than allowing the phone to idle and for slide2unlock to start. When I attempt to unlock the phone the screen is black, I can see that the backlight just hasn't switched on as when I hold the screen to a light I can see the image toggling on when I press the lock button.

I've included my settings and installed programs in case it helps. I didn't have this problem with 1.17. I want slide2unlock to come on if the phone idles but just switch the LCD off rather than the phone. This is so that I can listen to music without the phone switching off and stopping it. However I want it to switch the device off (well, standby) when I press the lock button and for slide2unlock to be active when I unlock.

Any advice?

Re: Incorrect sound icon, v1.18

Hi again, A_C!

In order to remember the issue: the sound icon always displays as "mute".

A_C wrote:

Well... I do NOT have a "Ringer" key under "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume"! The only keys available there are "Key", "Mute", "Screen" and "Volume"!

Their values with SOUND ON and maximum volume, are:

"Key" (DWORD): 65538 (dec) = 0x10002 (hex)

"Mute" (DWORD): 7 (dec) = 0x7 (hex)

"Screen" (DWORD): 1 (dec) = 0x1 (hex)

"Volume" (DWORD): 4294967295 (dec) = 0xFFFFFFFF... (hex)

Their values with SOUND OFF hence zero volume, are:

"Key" (DWORD): 0 (dec) = 0x0 (hex)

"Mute" (DWORD): 7 (dec) = 0x7 (hex)

"Screen" (DWORD): 0 (dec) = 0x0 (hex)

"Volume" (DWORD): 0 (dec) = 0x0 (hex)

"Volume" obviously controls the general loudness of any sound. "Key" and "Screen" apparently control the loudness of the sounds generated when pressing a hard key, respectively when tapping the screen. The only one that doesn't change is "Mute"... hmmm?!?!

Anyway, there's no "Ringer" key! Weird!!!

"@lawmangrant & @homesik_alien

Pls do a small test:

1. stop iLock

2. change the setting: "Autostart" = 0; "IdleStart" = 0

3. start iLock

4. do your device still have power on/off problem?

Thanks."

This appears to have solved my problem. Strange though, I thought "Autostart"=1 was a requisite. Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ialu:
Hello A_C

Thanks for this cool program. But i was just wondering if there was a way for you or me to disable the touch FLO when the slide2lock turns on. I use it on the HTC touch but the FLO still works when its locked. I'm using v1.74 of the slide2unlock.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gfxMaven:
Slide graphics...transferrable?

A_C baby... wow! Great update. Just curious: can I copy the 1.17x top-bar, bottom-bar and slide graphics over to 1.18? Just curious...and if yes, what files are they? Thanks a mil.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] homesik_alien:
Replied too soon. After leaving my Touch alone for a few minutes and then powering up, the slide2unlock did not activate. My today screen appeared instead. The problem of needing to push the power button twice in order to invoke the slide2unlock feature is back after I set the "Autostart" back to 1.

Let me know if you want me to test more. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ericosusanto:
Thanks God U come back again with new release 1.18

I proud to show off to my friends (v.1.17)

unfortunately I'm using WM2003, Is it possible to install 1.18?

Only little problem :

- Why 1.17 in my device cannot display missed call, sms, etc.

- Weather icon displaying "N/A" (i'm using SPB weather) , I've edited registry SPB weather to 1.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Furbious:
Is there a setting (or perhaps a possibility to put into a future version :))to always have the slide2unlock being displayed on the LCD, but with the backlight off? On the artemis, it seems that the timeout setting to min brightness doesn't actually set the backlight off, but to very dim, really sapping the battery.

Having a lock application like this is cool, but it kind of defeats the point of it if you have to press the standby button and then do the gesture. If i could just get the backlight to turn off......
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wschom:
Sorry this issue I have is Slide 2 Lock starting when the phone is put into standby by pressing the power button. If it times out on its own it will start it but not if I press the power button. Using the same registry settings the 1.17 version of iLock will work perfectly. The 1.18 version does not launch slide at all. I have tried many of the soultions that people have posted here to no avail.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gfxMaven:
topbar, botbar mods

Never mind A_C..I just modified the dimensions of the original 1.17 topbars.BMP, flipped it and resized to make botbars.BMP and I'm good to go :) . I've attached the files here if any1 wants em. Also included backups of A_C's original 1.18 graphics if you want to revert or simply switch back and forth as the mood fits you :D !

Great update!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
It seems to work great on my WX. Unfortunatly it seems to lock up after a while. Sometimes it will last a day, other times it will lock up in an hour. I am trying the D-pad setting to see if that changes anything, other than that...I love it, but may have to put it aside (for now).

Great work A_C (as always)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aleatorul:
How am I going to do that? Where in registry? Some examples of such apps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mistellisch:
Thanks A_C for your answer! I really love that app but just a moment ago the problem appeared when someone was trying to call me. I heard the ringtone but couldn´t see who was calling.

I made a screenshot of that situation again: maybe the code tells you more about it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wschom:
Ok. I think I have figured out the issue with the power off no start. It needs to be off for 30 seconds. There has to be a time between the backlight shutting of and the power shutting for the program to run. Otherwise it doesn't run. I still don't understand the 30 second issue though. I have tried changint he offLCD setting with no change. Anyone have any ideas?

BTW... I really like this peace of software. It has a very nice interface and keeps the information I need at a quick, easy glance.

Unread MMS messages !?!

Hi,

Firstly let me thank you A_C for the marvelous piece of software.

I've just started to mess around with it (version 1.18) in my brand new HTC Touch. I'm using a Portuguese ROM so I had to configure the IncomingText and it worked right away.

I have just two questions

1 - Is is possible to configure the ShowWeather for the Weather widget that comes with the HTC Home plugin? Anybody done this already?

2 - I have a slight problem. Altough I do not have any unread messages, nor SMS or MMS, the slide2unlock screen shows that I have 1 unread MMS. Is this a bug? Or am I missing that ninja MMS :)?

Cheers,

André
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Matzix:
Incoming Text - German

With my XDA Orbit (WM6) it is "Eingehender Anruf". In the registry, this string can only be found in the context of the notification sound settings text (HKCU\ControlPanel\Notification\Default), where it reads "Telefon: Eingehender Anruf" Maybe a regex can grab this text. Is it the same way also in other languages?

Enjoy your Coffee...

Workin great, lovin the new Caller ID feature... it's smooth. A lot faster than the previous release I used.

the only thing I have to complain about is switching from portrait mode to landscape mode... landscape takes forever to load upon the first switch (almost as if it's going to freeze), but after the first load it's as fast as it should be.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] johnnyv5:
Having the same issue with the phone. The caller ID starts up, but won't go away. When I end the all w/ my bluetooth headset the caller id screen is still there. When the phone goes to sleep after a call I press the power button and the caller id screen is on. Any ideas? I have close app=0. Autostart and idlestart are both =1.

jv
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DvTonder:
I have the same issue. The after the call is finished, the callerid screen shows every time I power on the device, I have to 'hang up' (even though there is no active call) in order for the slide screen to show.

Settings as follows: CloseApp = 1, Autostart = 1, IdleStart = 0
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] johnnyv5:
Now Idlestart is not working. When my phone powers off itself and I power it back on, slide2unlock is not loading. wasn't the case in 1.17..... Again, I have idlestart=1 and autostart=1. OffLCD=30.

wallpaper issue

I solved that renaming \Program Files\Slide2Unlock\GFX\Res\wallpaper.jpg to \..\wallpaper.bmp.

BTW, it seems the slide.exe doesn't search wallpaper image in specified wallpaper path reg key but in Slide2UnlockPath reg key. Is it only a problem of mine?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jyavenard:
Installed it on my Hermes (imate jasjam).

It's working fine, looks really cool !

Some questions ; as reported by others earlier, after a call is completed, it still shows up the call screen. Have to tap on the red button to make the lock screen disappear.

Also, I've installed WeatherPanel and configured it to show some weather forecast. However, in Slide2Unlock, it shows up as NA. I did set the registry entry ShowWeather to 1.

I have noticed one other bug, sometimes when turning the PDA on, the Slide2Unlock screen will show for about half a second and then immediately close. No idea why it does this sometimes...

Thanks in advance for any help

Answers & v1.181 patch

Hey guys,

I won't go to detail reply this time. Just released a v1.181 patch on the 1st post. It should fix most of the problems you stated here, except:

- native mode support & Landscape mode problem, which requires Arianesoft (the maker of PPL) to solve.

- some users experienced the "Autostart" did not work, which need more time for testing.

Pls let me know if you still have problem after this update.

@Matzix

Thanks for your coffee & the registry note, I'll try to add it in the coming release. It should ease a lot users.

@mifungo

Pls make sure you've typed the full path in the wallpaper settings, including the preceding "\".

@jyavenard

To use WP, the "ShowWeather" should be 2.

For the MMS problem, pls check the value of "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\mms\unread\count". If you're sure there is no unread MMS, you may change it back to zero.

Thanks all for the comments & testings.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DvTonder:
A_C, it seems that the callerid screen showing when the power button is pressed issue I reported earlier has been fixed with this version, thank you!

Loving this so far

2 questions

1. It doesnt seem to show the contact name, only the phone number (running on full size pic mode)

2. Again since im on fullscreen, any suggestions on how to keep the higher res pic i originally uploaded to show? WM6 seems to instantly scale it down and then slide2unlock just zooms in on it

Thanks!!

Memory Leak?

Hi A_C,

As usual, excellent app! I've continuously followed ur app and progress since day 1 and I tried almost all versions from the 1st to the last. I must say that this is one of the best apps available for a pocket pc. Truly marvelous!! On ur latest release (v1.181), one thing i noticed is some "small" memory leak. I have slide2unlock set CloseApp to 1. What I noticed is when I start slide2unlock, my RAM goes down 2-3MB (which is fine) but after a few hours of usage (around 4-5 hours), i noticed another additional 2-3MB of RAM being consumed. I dont know if the memory will continue to decrease the longer I keep it because once I notice the additional 2-3MB decrease, I do a soft reset to put it back to normal...U may want to check into this..or it could be that i'm the only one with the issue...nevertheless, excellent work!! (just needs this and the caller ID picture fix,i'm also getting an enlarged version of a thumbnail which is not very clear)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
hi A_C

very happy to see the Caller ID function IP working very well, tho @ first try not picture was shown. After a soft reset (cos 'Callerid=2' doesn't seem to work..), manage to see the full picture! Very clear too. :) Oh yes, the unicode instead of the English name, problem resolved too.

This is wha i elf to get clear caller id picture. I crops the photo to the screen size of my Trinity, i.e. 240x320. Give it a try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] schulzpm:
A_C, Just upgraded to 1.18.1 from 1.17. Great Work !!! On future updates, could you have the update leave the registry settings alone (unless there are new ones...)?

Maybe a backup settings feature in the iConfig app...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curveconcepts:
Just wanted you to know of a potential issue/problem. On the hermes device, when slide2unlock is enabled and showing; when you slide your keyboard open, it closes the program.. Kind of defeats the purpose..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kdub808:
I don't know if this has been covered but is there anyway you can make it where push email comes through while the device is sleeping? If I just have the device turn off the backlight then everything is fine but if I have it where the device goes to sleep it does not get my push email. Without the iLock program running the device behaves normally and receives the email when it gets pushed to the device but if the iLock program is running and the device is "sleeping" I receive my new pushed email when I turn wake device back up.

Thanks,

If you answer by pressing the green button on the screen, it will work okay.

If you answer using the green button (the physical button, not the one on the screen), then the caller id screen will still show when you hang up

Some bugs

I noticed a couple of bugs in this version:

- sometimes the device wakes up by itself, e.g. at 00:00 (also happened with the previous version, but I'm not sure if it is related to this application)

- The callerId feature works like a charm but when I accept the call, I see the keyboard icon in the top left corner of the screen, over the start button

Maybe I'm the only one who has this bugs.

However... very good application!

Answers & v1.182 patch

Hey guys,

Another update v1.182... mainly fixed:

- sometimes Caller ID pic will not be displayed

- simplified the CallerID enabling procedures (Thanks Matzix)

- sometimes the Autostart didn't work

1. For the Caller pic low res problem, PPC Outlook always shrink the pic to around 60 x 60. You have to use other 3rd party contact management apps (like Inesoft Address Book) which gives you the choice to save the pic at higher res. Or you may try the PC's Outlook & Sian, could you share your experience with other users?

2. For the memory leak, I'm not sure are those missing memory is caused by SLIDE or by the OS. Will monitor it closely.

3. @Marshall07, could you provide a screen shot of the keyboard icon? I cannot reproduce your scenerio with my device.

For others, pls read the past posts as many of them have been answered & addressed.

BTW, I could not u/l file to http://www.badongo.com. Don't know why...

EDIT: Just uploaded to badongo... and updated the 1st post. :D

SBP Backup Scheduled Backups Don't

I'm having the same problem others have reported with SPB Backup not being able to start a scheduled backup. I've upgraded to the latest version 1.61 of SPB Backup, which does work manually at least.

I thought I could have SBSH PhoneWeaver 1.02 switch to an "Unlocked" profile by scheduling it to run iLock about 15 minutes before the scheduled backup. That didn't work either. It did run iLock, but now it looks like SPB Backup cannot deal with the dialog box iLock puts up.

I wonder if it might be possible to have the iLock dialog box dismiss itself after a period of time.

BTW, I'm using version 1.181 of slide2unlock.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
Thanks man. But the PM system does not allow files to be attached. Could you please get the v1.182 patch on the 1st post? Then let me know the eMule link & I'll paste it on the 1st post.

I also use SPB Backup to backup my device but without any problem. Suggested actions:

- check/clean/deduplicate your device's notification database, there are a lot 3rd party tools can do this job

- if still not work... nrr... let me think the possibility of your request...
