I like very much this app. It's very simple and impressive at the same time. Sometimes the app crash but I don't mind, it's not a problem to soft reset sometimes. I only have 1 issue and 1 request.

issue: when I receive a call I can answer but the phone continue to vibrate for a few second so that who is calling hear the vibration noise. I think it's because throttlelock loads in background (as the phone is resuming from standby) so it slows the system until it's completely loaded.

request: I like the application as simple as is without crappy features, but it would be awesome if it will be resident so that it pops up fast every time. With 0.2b it's already fast because it loads when you power off, but if you forget to do something and you power on immediatly after power off you have to wait 4-5 seconds. It's not a main issue, it would become simply perfect!

is anyone else having the vibration issue when answering a call?

I'm using a Diamond with Swift 6.0

thank you very much for this great app, hope you will develope again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Starflake:
If you with 'vibration issue' mean that the phone still vibrates for a few seconds after answering the call, I have to say yes. But only sometimes :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marco.catelli:
yes, I mean that! ok, not always happen, but often (at least on mine). it's a bit annoying.

and for the request to have the program resident or something that speeds up I think it could let this application make the quality jump! already a big improovementwith the latest relese but still not perfect...Ii hope there will be improovement because I'm liking it very much!

(sorry for bad english)

Is it possible to add a topbar that is exactly like the system bar of S2U2?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Starflake:
My brother asked my yesterday if I was shaving my hair when I answered his call :D So I know what you mean. And it can be disturbing sometimes, I agree with that :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marco.catelli:
hehe, my wife asked me the same question!! I stood in silence for 2 seconds (guessing if I was going to explain her or not) then I said, "don't care...you won't understand it!" lol
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
What can I do to make it open faster?

It starts with unlocking S2U2 and it needs about 4-5 seconds to open. Not a big problem so far, but it would look much cooler when it would appear just the moment I unlock my phone?!

Or is there another way? For example it runs when locking the phone, but stays in the background of S2U2?

I agree! I've got it set to open after S2U2 unlocks, but the 4-5 second delay is very irritating. Course, then I get the screen and enter my pattern :cool: and the irritation goes away. Very cool app, just wish it wouldn't take so long to load...:(

I haven't had a chance to try out any of the posted skins yet, but does using a solid background instead of the default transparent screenshot make a difference in the loading time of TL?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] del4:
[FR] UnlockRunEXE

Similar to S2U2's UnlockRunEXE functionality, could TL support something similar so that we could chain things together?

I used to have S2U2 setup to launch my Mobile Shell Now screen, but now use TL instead, though I would still like to have the Now screen opened when I'm done unlocking...

A couple more features like this and this may become a potential substitute for S2U2...

Just curious, but any possibility of incorporating TL within S2U2, similar to what happened with SetVolume??? :D

Oh sorry, i jumped conclusions... sorry it works like a charm and FAST! tnx man
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:

great app. thanks!

when i get a txt or call and dont have the chance to answer, my screen turns on with ThrottleLock in the foreground. the issue is the screen gets press while in the holster, the phone doesnt get unlocked or anything but it's now asking to change the pattern. one time it showed me all the invalid attemps while in my holster. is there anyway to change the lock pattern without it going off by mistake?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] T-dome:
I love you're work, can you make battery icons that match the Godzson's Widget style? I use those icons for TL and so far they are the nicest one around!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beast84:
Hey GODZSON, how bout updating your widget icons for the new icon set with the mms & voicemail? And maybe a nice battery to go along with it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GODZSON:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GODZSON:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beast84:
I mean there is 2 new icons in the notification folder for mms & voicemail when I downloaded it. I now have 5 icons but your widget set is only 3 icons
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GODZSON:
Shud only be 3 total.. I guess I added extra on one or 2 on that one for differrences..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beast84:
Wait you added the new icons? I'm confused?

I downloaded the new version of throttlelock, 0.3, which has 5 icons in the notification folder.

Your widget download only has the original 3
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GODZSON:
I'm only aware of 3 in notifications folder.. and 5 in battery folder.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beast84:
Really? Wow I got 5 icons in the version 0.3 update. The 3 original for mail, sms, & missed. And then 2 more for mms & voicemail.

APBilbo, is it supposed to have 5 icons? I noticed the voicemail looks the same as the mail & the mms looks like the sms

What is the feedback about the non-functioning hardware buttons in this new release? till the earlier release the H/W buttons were not working when the TL was on..

Any body?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evojulz:
APBilbo, thanks so much for release 0.3, works great!!!

No lag at power on and I can live with a couple of extra seconds to load after a SR.

Some observations/requests:

1. If a shortcut is put in the Startup folder then TL loads before SPB MS 2.1 and just runs in the background without locking anything. Because it doesn't feature as a key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init\ (startup sequence) I have used DelayedExec to make TL load last. Could you make a delay or load last option inside TL?

2. Because TL runs in the background, if you enter the incorrect code once, TL will display the "Invalid Pattern. Please try again" message every time you power on until the next SR. Could you make it reset to the "Enter your pattern" message when in standby mode?

3. When you change the code, it asks to "Confirm your new pattern", if you enter it incorrectly the second time it just keeps asking to confirm. Could you make it loop back to the "Enter your new pattern" message if the confirmation message is incorrect?

Keep up the good work, this rocks!! Must be donation time ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maxpain:
diamond users will be gratefull :)

very nice app............

is it possible to add:

1. lock when background goes off ?

2 lock on incomming call--------and answer only when unlock code is right

is it possible to make it more faster ? :)

from 2 to 3 version speed increase 10 times (working in backround make it )

When will the hardware button issue be resolved? i cant use my keyboard to type sms or email anymore...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
I've posted 0.3b. Please check if it solves the problem.... I've been trying it for about 1 hour (onlocking once per minute) without issues... but who knows :o...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Thank you for your support and help!! ;)

I've included on 0.3b all your points solved...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Thanks! :). I can try some tweaks to make it a little bit faster when it in background... Startup is more complicated to optimize, but I always have speed target in mind when changing the code ;).

About the two points.... for the first one I've to do some researchs... and for the seccond I don't know how to intercept incomming calls and the notification pop's up always so I don't know how to completely lock incomming calls... Any way I think it will be a little bit anoying to lose incomming calls just for having to unlock the phone...

Hi, my hardware keys stays locked after unlocking, so i cant use them. The only keys that unlocks are the home and the hangup key. So the answer and back key doesn't unlock. I'm using TL on a HTC Diamond.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mr_deimos:
Hi.

That's one great app you made, APBilbo :)

The latest versions seem fast enough to be used normally on a Wizard, however i'm facing a slight problem. Besides ThrottleLayncher i use MWC2. And when throttle lock starts (or sometimes after succesful unlock) whe waitcursor gets stuck on the screen (is being drawn even though it's not needed anymore). I has also been reported to happen with throttle launcher. From what Marshall (developer of MWC2) writes, it's not entirely his program's fault, since other software when using the cursor should also make another function call to hide it:

Could you please look into this? Even though it'll be partially resolved in MWC, it would still be some time before the cursor timeout is reached and the cursor still will be displayed for a fer seconds over the throttle lock screen.

Besides that issue, the throttle lock seems like something that'll replace S2U2 for me in very near future. Really great job so far :)

I so dislike all this iPhone fashioned apps.

If I'd like an Iphone, i'd get one.

Non-Iphone design od ThrottleLock is one of it's biggest pro's.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Grondinm:
if only i had gotten up 2min latter...would not have to installe 2 version within 10min...good job apbilbo...works great as i said befor as a add-on to s2u2 for me....and just as a comment if the iphone had not done the slide 2 unlock thing it would be the best thing around as well....it's not like we try to make our phones look like the iphone it's just a cool app...like s2p and s2v...simply adding functinality to a windows mobile phone.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vj4:
dude key problem totally fixed now on my kaiser thanks was starting to freak out a touch!! erm speed is still an issue when i turn screen on and the speed i can try again after wrong pattern is driving me mad! i get it wrong go to try again quickly and it only highlights first dot and then says invaild pattern again and i end up in a horrible loop of death till i slow down and miss my call. any 1 else had a similar prob? but keep up work im loving this and guna use from now on! (will donate when i get paid)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chiekh:
You must make a choice betwen this one or s2u2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Grondinm:
you can simply delete the lockdemon.Lnk from \windows\startup then softreset. i use it the same way and it works great.

not true if you delet that shourtcut and set throttlelock to run when s2u2 unlocks it works great as extra security

to skin you just need to create .png files to replace the old ones (everything is in throttle launcher file under program files)

-background is 320 x 320 (70.01)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joel2009:
you have to use a program like photoshop or paint.net (paint.net is free and i love it).... just make sure and get the pixels right along with the pixels per square inch ratio if u do paint.net....... they should be set to 70.01.... the background depends on your screen.... i use 320 x 320
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
Just a small feedback.

Since 0.3 your app works really great on my Kaiser APBilbo (since you instore the background running :)). I did not use it yet while receiving calls, so I do not know if this works thou :).

Thanks a lot !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Christian72D:
I´m new to your program, i just found it this morning.

It works really great, it´s fast on my Touch Cruise.

But i have two little problems:

- would it be possible to have the time in the european format on a device with the german translation?

- often i get an "Ungültig. Versuchen sie es erneut" ("Incorrect, Try again") even if i just turn on my device without entering anything. What can be the problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] T-dome:
You can change the time format in the xml fil. Fore European time format change this line...

<param name="ClockFormat" value="HH:mm - yyyy-MM-dd"/>

I get the "try again" to from time to time, I think this is something that is under investigation by developer.

Battery drain??

Today I noticed something strange. I charged my phone during the night, and did a soft reset this morning. And after 4 hours of not using my phone (ok, I did send one sms and I got one call) the battery was flat!!!! The only program running on my phone, beside those integrated in HTCs original ROM is ThrottleLock 0.3c. Is there anybody that have noticed the same isue??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Mmmm... that's really strange... ThrottleLock doesn't have any loops or event's other than the system ones... and I believe those are completly stoped when the device enters sleep mode... In fact you can check that, look at the time when you turn on the device, it will remain for near a seccond to the time where you power your device off... I'll look into it though... ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
Got the same here, I switch on the screen and directly get the invalid warning. It doesn't change anything but that's to be noticed :).

EDIT: this does not happen with the version 0.3c ;). "Problem" solved it seems.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] T-dome:
:) Ill try to reproduce this behavior again, to see if I can make it happen again!

I did notice one more thing today, when I get a call, I can see who's calling and answer the phone, but the vibrating doesn't stop when I push the answer button. It vibrates for a couple of seconds, when the call is already answered. If i close ThrottleLock, the vibrating stops when I answer the call, so I believe there is some interference between TL and WM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eXero:
I found a way to go over the same 'button' twice. I got no clue how this works but how to replicate:

Turn on GSen

Go to throttlelock

THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE IN LANDSCAPE MODE

1 right

1 down

1 right

1 up

2 down

1 left

Have only tried it with 3c

That looks SO much better. i use the clock on S2U2 more than I care about the S2U2. I'd love to see the email/text/phone icons be larger sort of like S2U2 and having a caller id would be cool too.

That is if not asking for the world. I like and really need the locking pattern of Throttle lock but like many of the features of S2U2. I am not interested in some method that uses both - that just seems to complicate matters.

Thanks for the great development.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
+1, really cool proposal aldur.

Some talk about S2U2. The reason I switched at the moment to this great ThrottleLock is its simpleness... S2U2 is really great but there's many complicated option you've got to try 3 hours long to understand (me at least :p).
