I have the same issue sometimes (about 1 out of 10 times) I hit the power button and the screen comes on for a brief second then goes out.

I also have the screen blink every time I power it on. I am using the HTC Touch Diamond with original Celular provided software, no hacked ROMS.

PS. Love the program though!!

My only suggestion is I wish you would expand the explanations of what all the settings do in the program.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
I know what everybody is talking about with the attempting to end incoming calls. I have a similar issue. My phone isn't locked at the end of my call (I can either tap the end button on the screen or press the end hardware button).

The call ends and within a second or two, the phone relocks. There is no delay or anything.

AC: Is S2U2 set to relock after a call has ended if the device was locked originally? If so maybe that should be disabled. Normally the S2U2 doesn't activate till my screen dims (about 30 seconds). However it activates right away upon ending an incoming call. I don't even get the opportunity to close the dialer.

Most times I don't even hit the end button because the call is automatically ended when the other person hangs up. Within a second or two the phone locks, this may be the issue other people are having.

I hope this helps shed some light on the problem people are having.

S2U2 overriding native phone screen when not locked!

Hi,

I noticed a nasty side effect today with S2U2 and I think this is a bug. S2U2 is configured with "Slide to answer" = "Only locked". "Slide to end", "S2A Answer key" and "S2A End key" are all three "ON".

Case 1 "The device is locked with S2U2" : If I receive a phone call, the device wakes up, S2U2 show me its screen with the slider and "Answer/End" sides. So far so good.

Case 2 "The device IS NOT locked with S2U2" : If I receive a phone call, S2U2 show me its screen with two buttons (green "answer" and red "End") and this is absolutely NOT expected! S2U2 shouldn't override the native phone screen when the device isn't locked, especially when configured with "Only locked".

I can't verify right now but I'm sure the older versions worked correctly (namely 1.37).

The nasty side effect of case 2 : I was riding my motorcycle in town with my blackstone on my jacket's pocket running Navigon as a GPS to reach my destination and the earplugs for audio only instructions. Suddenly, I received a phone call. S2U2 overrode the native phone screen (device wasn't locked as Navigon keeps the backlight alive). I let the phone ring until timeout as I was unable to answer. After the timeout, S2U2 did not restore Navigon screen to front but "Today's home screen" instead eventhough it isn't configured to do so (and it usually does the job right of restoring the previous active application). After some time, the backlight was switched off, S2U2 locked the device and... I lost GPS navigation because then, Navigon was in "freezed" state. I had to stop at some street redlight to switch on my device and bring Navigon back to front which made it wake up (it was freezed showing the street where I was when I received the phone call :) )

I hope this misfeature will be soon adressed :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sithlord:
I second that as I also face the same situation.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
@Sithlord: My phone does the same thing when not locked -> green answer button and red end button. I always thought that it was the HTC dialer interface. Are you saying that it is the S2U2 interface without the sliding feature?

Bug Report...!

Device: IPaq 910c

OS: WM6.1

Problem: Whenever the time reaches around 1159pm or 1200am midnight, the S2U2 program will quit itself and no longer running from the background (obviously).

Is it possible to address this issue?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wunschkind:
hi,

after i´ve installed touchwatch2 on my device (touch hd) and the timer is running in the background when s2u2 is activated there is no alarm after the timer has ended ... someone else with that problem here?

thank you very much

I have notice it also on my touch cruise, since the 1.40 version didnot try without the power safe mode off. But every morning s2u2 is not active anymore.

great app by the way

Thanks A_C for your hard work and your awesome programs....

I've rolled back to V1.37...

"Problems" I've faced in V1.4x:

1) Clock won't update while the phone is off...

2) Reminders won't show while the phone is off...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] darebak666:
first of all thanks for great app!

almost everything works perfect, only one thing..

sometimes when the device is locked, and i slide the slider to unlock it, it unlocks, but after that (in 1sec) it goes automaticly back to locked state.. and I need to unlock the device again.

This happens not every time I unlock the device, but even it does sometimes, it is pretty annoying me.. anybody has the same problem or any solution?

Thanks in advance for help..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] neborkia:
The same for me... i hope to find a solution, it's very annoying!!

Problems with Bluetooth and CallerID since S2U2 1.35

Hi,

I use S2U2 for a while now on my E-ten M700. Works great. Except latest version that does work is 1.32

When I install 1.35 or later my bleutooth starts malfunctioning. Connection to my build-in carkit succeeds, but after 20-30 seconds phone disconnects. Only after hard-reset and reinstall of all the programs it works. When using 1.32 all goes well. After installing newer version same problem begins. Tried this a few times. :(

CallerId is slow in latest versions, didn't work in 1.37.

Any idea how S2U2 interferes with bluetooth?

THX

SPB Weather 2

Hi A_C! SPB Weather 2 is released, but unfortunately they changed something because S2U2 doesn't reconginse the weather info:(

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
The description here is exactly how the caller ID screen works. It does take over the native caller screen even unlocked. I don't think it can be configured to work the way you want it to!!

Personally I prefer this, the unlocked caller ID screen is much better for big fingers!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shadowsjc:
i had this same problem for awhile and incrementally increased the delay time, (i think it's the 2nd to last option in settings), but it would still happen from time to time. eventually i got as high as 3500 ms but then weird stuff started happening with my phone. i just downloaded the new version 1.42 and i brought the delay back down to 1500 ms. it hasnt done it in the past day or so (i have an omnia 910 from verizon). try manually uninstalling it (settings >remove programs) then reinstalling the new version

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nonpaq:
Used to happens on my Tmo Wing (HTC Herald) as well. I notice it no longer does this after switching "Unlock to Home Screen" off. I dont know if that fixed it or something else since I cant get it to double lock again.

I'm using 1.42.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] happyyaya:
YeaH ,me too. When the phone incoming call ring, it s only has sound around 3-4 sec.

what's problem in s2a segment?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hausen:
wasn't aware of the new 1.42 version in my last post... now i have updated to 1.42 and everything works fine so far...

(except for that 'inertia' thing... as I'm not native english and I can't find out any effect changing the setting, I don' know what this should do at all... maybe somebody can give me a short explanation, pls!?)

MANY THANKS, GREAT APP!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
When you slide to unlock or answer, the inertia determines how easy or hard it is to drag the slider. Low inertia will let you start the slider, let go, and it will continue on its own. High inertia means you have to drag the slider all the way to the end to unlock. But, numbers are opposite. Low number in setting makes high inertia.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bboyneko:
1.42 has the same problem 1.41 did: it keeps randomly waking up my locked phone. I went back to 1.37 and 1.37 works fine. No random wake ups.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beachcomp.com:
Just to add to the list.

HTC touch pro.

I can not take any calls with 1.42.

This is with s2a enabled and disabled.

None of the answer keys work.

First time in about a year that I dont have s2u2 on my phone.

5 minutes and i miss it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mm@looxn500:
Hi,

I have another question.

Is there a possibility to get a light version of s2u2?

I only have a pda without telephone function and the bigger the app gets the more problems I have with it. I use this app only to avoid unintentional turning on of my N500. Just the slide function and a changeable wallpaper would be enough.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] daniel93:
nobody can't tell me about the late ring when i receive a phone call?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
Same with me regarding the bluetooth. I got mine to work if I shut off the Power Saver mode. Something in there is interfering with the bluetooth. I also have No Power Suspend enabled. Try those two settings and let me know if it works for you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
Ah, that's why the adjustment is so messed up. I thought that the Inertia setting was for the inertia, but it seems like it is actually more of a friction or weight setting.

@AC: If the setting is titled and for inertia, you should reverse your numbering. For example: 1 would be no extended travel on release and 10 would be alot of travel on release (just a flick). Currently right now you have it the other way.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
What is your system resources at? Mine run at about 43%. How many apps do you have running consistently. On mine there is a brief (1 - 2 seconds) from when the lights start flashing to when the screen comes up and the phone starts ringing.

I would consider this normal when when you have a load on your resources.

Hi,

I am using a Epix I907 or I780 in europe. I installed spb weather but I cannot get it to show up. I am using v1.42 and I have enabled the spb weather in the setup.

What am I doing wrong.

Spb shows up on my today screen and it working but will not show up when slide to lock kicks in.

Sorry for my ignorance but what is MMS?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
Multimedia Messaging Service, MMS for short, is a cellular telephone standard for sending messages that include multimedia objects (images, audio, video, ...

Basically it is a text message with the ability to add another media-type...usually an image or music.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
Ahh, yeah, I don't have that feature on my plan.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Corey_Smith:

This is S2U2 v1.42 Korean lang.ini

Thanks A_C.

This is S2U2 v1.42 lang.ini file for Korean User.

Some Korean user(Include me) reports about vibration function on Mirage(SCH-M480, SGH-i780).

It doesn't vibrate when a call is connected.

We can just see lighting lamp when a call is coming.

Can you check this problem?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sithlord:
Exactly! As I've made my own "theme" (basically a background picture), I see it with the "answer" and "end" buttons (green and red). This is a S2U2 screen without sliding features, right.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sithlord:
Well, then I don't see the point in having multiple choices for "Slide to answer" with "OFF", "Only locked" and "Always" if "Only locked" == "Always" :confused:

I'm not against preferences, far from that, I encourage full configurability in all software. Anyway, as suggested by the configuration possibilities, I'd like S2U2 to take over native phone screen when locked but let the native screen do its job when NOT locked.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sithlord:
I second that too! When turning on the device, the clock shows the time it was when you locked the screen and half second later, the clock is updated to show the current time.

Maybe this have to do with the new 1.40 features about powersaving and such.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigX84:
Newbie

Hi,

I just got a brand new Touch HD and I'm trying out some stuff! I installed S2U2 but I can't seem to get it how I want. I want my phone to keep showing normal blacklight for 30 sec when it's not touched, then after again 30 sec I want that S2U2 lockes the phone and that it stays my screensaver until I unlock the phone again. So I don't want the phone to go all black in standby so I have to press the powerbutton again! Can I use S2U2 for this?? It's probably simple but I can't seem to figure it out! New to Windows Mobile :)

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jokes On You:
Change your phone settings to have your backlight turn off in 30 seconds then have S2U turn on when your back light goes off and change the "Power Off In" setting to off.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dukeneverwinter:
what version are you on. I am on 1.35 and have the same issue. to scared to go newer
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nursemm05:
that won't stop the screen from going black I don't think. Those are the same settings I have on my TP and my screen goes black. I think in order for the screen not to completely go black it's a phone setting and not s2u2 setting.

You could update it yourself. Try using the S2U2-translator written by Ichijou-san, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2782104&postcount=2328

It's easy (sorry, if I could speak Swedish, I would do it for you).

when the screen goes to sleep, not off.. does that save or waste power?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nursemm05:
if you can still see your wallpaper and today screen but backlight is off, it wastes power. if the screen is black it saves power. the phone isn't turning OFF just the screen is going off. the phone still functions as it should when a call, sms, etc come in just the light is off the screen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
That is a trait of the phone / Windows Mobile.

Even without S2U2 on my phone, when I turn on my phone the standard clock is on the time of when I shut it off for about a 1/2 second then it updates to the current time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dc41:
I've been reading through the faqs and a number of posts trying fire this out. I think all the info i need is out there. i just can't put it togethr.

I would like to do the follow:

For me the power switch on my fuze is suffient at preventing accidental wakeup. Therefore, i do not need s2u2 to lock the the lcd... or in other words, i don't want a two step process just to access the phone (power button -> s2u2.

what i need is s2u2 to do nothing ezcept when two conditions simultainiously..

1. The lcd/phone are in sleep mode (power button has been pushed.

2. an incoming call wakes the device.

Only then do i want s2u2 to lock everything down except the slide to answer. I really only need it to prvent me from accidently answering/refusing calls while i'm digging it out of my pocket while it's ringing, but i can't figure out the proper combinatios on settings to acheive this.

Is it possible? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

i noticed much more memory usage with 1,42 ver. When i was using 1,40 usage was 58 % after SoftReset ... Now it is 73% just after SoftReset
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
I would suspect it's not 1.42, My usage has not gone up with the upgrade.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] holmanm:
Settings, System, Power, Advanced Tab, uncheck "Turn off device if not used for".

Then in S2U2 settings, Power Off in - set to Off.

But you will have to launch S2U2. S2U2 will not launch itself while the power is on, but this will keep it on till the battery runs out.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigX84:
well it did actually, so it worked!! :) Only thing now is that is seems to take a lot out of the battery. Would it be possible to keep S2U2 running without the phone powering off but that the screen will be black or very low in brightness (less battery usage) and that when I wanna use the phone again, I touch the screen and the screen will light up and I can unlock it??

The main thing is that I find it annoying that I have to press the power button on top of the phone everytime that I havent used it for a couple of minutes!! I also don't think that the button is firm anough to last two years like this :p How are you guys doing this?? Are there maybe other things that can be done about this??

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigX84:
This is a good thing I believe, but is it possible to get the backlight back on just by pressing the screen instead of pressing the power button??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
Sure it will lock, just select on for lock when backlight shuts off under battery power options.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] neborkia:
Tried with "Unlock to Home Screen" off and 1.42 without success :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vboyd666:
I think some people are missing the whole point of a screen locker program. The main purpose of the program is so the screen (including backlight) doesn't light up without pressing the power button first.

Those who would like to wake their phone just by touching the screen is not possible. Most users either have their phone in their pocket or in a holster. In that scenerio the phone would never shut off because the screen would always be pressed.

If you don't keep your phone in a holster or pocket, why would you need a screen lock program for?

@AC: Great program, keep it up!! Do you implement anything with the light sensor right now? Also, rather than having the exe exception list. Would it be possible to have an option of something like: Only lock when phone times out and the home screen is displayed. In other words: If I have any screen up other than my HTC home screen displayed (contacts, calander, email, sms, google maps, etc.) S2U2 doesn't run. I press the home button or close all the windows and then S2U2 will run.

I hope that makes any sense. I am no programmer of any type, so I have no idea if this is even possible.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nursemm05:
why don't you change your phone settings so any button press will unlock the phone? should be an option to set it to power button or any button. I think mine actually says do not lock buttons when screen is blank. it's under settings, key lock.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigX84:
Well I didn't mean that I want to only use a press of a vinger to wake the screen up ithout it being locked. I mean that I want to use a vinger to let the backlight go from very dimmed to bright so I cab unlock the slider. I want the S2U2 program to work when I'm not using the phone and I want the slider to be on screen all the time. When i want to use the phone again I just want to move the slider (1 step) instead of pressing the power button first and then the slider (2 steps). I tried this but this will consume a lot of battery (don't know why exactly) so I figure that S2U2 will have to be very dimmed so it doesn't use a lot of energy, or it has to use a completely black background with just the slider in the middle. Do you understand what I mean?? Anyone had an idea if this can be done or am I talking a lot of gibberish here :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigX84:
Hmm I can't seem to find that setting in my phone settings :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
I think it is under settings - buttons - lock
