wallpaper problem

On my HTC Touch Pro, when trying to select a wallpaper thru the settings app, all I get are weird colored boxes all over the display.. :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MJNewton:
That sounds like the thumbnail view of all the graphics files in the default Program Files\S2U2\gfx\ folder.

It's a funny interface but here's what I do:

1. Copy your desired wallpaper into the Program Files\S2U2\gfx\ folder (you don't have to but as it defaults to start here it makes things nice and simple - it also means you're less likely to delete it!)

2. In the thumbnail view ('weird colored boxes'!) scroll until you see your wallpaper and click it - this'll open it full screen

3. Tap-and-hold the full screen view for a few seconds - when you release this will bring up an overlay with various icons. You can either hit the curly-back-arrow (top-left) to return to the thumbnail view if it's the wrong image but if it's the one you want hit the top-centre icon ('double-page' image) - this will bring up some options, one of which is 'Set as Wallpaper'. You then have to choose whether it's for Portrait or Landscape.

4. Hit save and you're done!

Somewhat convoluted I agree but it's not every day you need to do it! :)

HTC Wired Remote

Hey i love this app. but i noticed a small problem. i use the HTC wired Remote control when listening to music. While the phone is locked the volume control buttons on the wired remote do not work. However PLAY/NEXT/PREVIOUS do work. anyone have any hints on how to fix this?

S2U2 2.04 was working great with Miri V19 6.5 ROM on Touch HD, but now on V26 under WM 6.5 I am experiencing a roadblock with incoming calls. Tried different settings, but screen and hardware buttons stay locked, and I cannot take a call by just swiping the lock button. Excuse my ignorance if this has been answered before.

Understand that A_C has no WM 6.5 ROM on his Diamond yet, but what about my fellow users. Any solutions found yet?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimdriver2:
Hello. First want to say how great S2U2 is, been using it ever since I got my Omnia.

Just upgraded to 2.04 and have a small problem, pictures i've assigned to CallerID are coming up all blocky and low-res jpg despite the actual picture being high res and displaying fine when I view it through other applications. Didn't have this program in an earlier version of S2U2.

Tried to search through this thread for an answer but couldn't find one, so sorry if this is an easy fix. Would greatly appreciate any help though!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michi123:
In the FAQ of the S2U2 you will find - among many other helpful tips - this:

Q. The quality of the CallerID pic is so bad even the original photo is in high resolution?!

A. DO NOT use the system contact/outlook to add photo to a contact. Use S2V (Slide 2 View) to do so.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimdriver2:
thanks for that.

Sometimes can't unlock

I have S2U2 v2.04 installed on my ELF (Onyx 4.6) and I like this application BUT unfortunately sometimes (once - twice a day) when I s2u the window turns black. S2U2 seems to be still running (it appears in the top left corner) but the device won't accept any input (you just get a "system beep"). In this state the only thing you can do is a soft reset.... :(

Have someone seen/fix this already?

Any help is appreciated!

Cheers

s2u2 with end key

i use an omnia with the 23001 rom. s2u2 works great in combination with touchflo but i have two questions.

1) When i press the end-key to lock the device it doesn't activate the s2u2 but another slide at the top of the screen. How can i change the end key to start s2u2?

2) How can i quickly start s2u2 from the touchflo screen?

tx in advance,

thomassio

Since my Samsung i780 has the problem that in my pocket the power button is easily pressed and then the touch screen is active (I found myself calling/emailing people at random or I was linving in a different timezone...) I came about this great app. It works great.

Just one question, I could not find via the search and sadly do not have the time to go through the more than 160 pages.

The top part of the screen seems a copy of the topbar of the Todayscreen. Point is that I have about 4 mailboxes to monitor so there are always a number of unread emails shown. It is hard for me to determine if any 'really' new emails have arrived, because I also synchronize with my work PC so when I view emails on my PC the number of unread mails will change on the i780 etc etc.

Anyway, to keep the story short (hmm, too late ;)) is there anyway to have the 'new mail' icon in the top bar just as on the Today Screen (or any other indicator that fires when that icon is displayed) because that really indicates if I have new email on my i780. Now I have to unslide to unlock to see if I have new email.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eww245:
Yes but not on the TopBar it will be to the right of the slider.

Form S2U2 Settings click on General, then on the bottom is the option for Show Email Preview, enable it and all is good.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] c_setag:
Thanks for you reply, but that does not do the trick. When I get an email I do see briefly a pop-up but when the screen goes blank and I open it up there is no notification. If you mean the envelop with the number of unread emails just to right and above the slider, as I explained I see that always because of the number of mailboxes I monitor. Because the number of unread emails changes a lot (I have three boxes via IMAP, so after sync with e.g. my work PC the # of unread emails changes) I cannot determine if a new email has arrived. My memory is good, but not that good :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] katerini:
I have the same problem on my Omnia i900. To me, is not black, but i see the today screen, but nothing can be pressed. I can only press the on/off hardware button, the screen goes on and off, but that`s all.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cxi:
To cause S2U2 to start immediately you just need to run the S2U2.exe application from wherever you installed it. Making your end key do that, and making TouchFlo run that are up to your own device. I'm sure there's software out that to make it happen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jvlerick:
+/- same thing here on my TyTN II with WM 6.1. Sporadically, I can only unlock with DPAD and then get black screen with only the status icons at top of screen and the device stops responding, needing soft reset.

Touchpro2 hangs when connected to bluetooth headset

I've noticed a really strange bug. I use s2u2 v2.04 and I've noticed that when I'm in the car and connected to my bluetooth headset my touchpro2 runs really slowly - it takes a good few seconds to navigate from one screen to another. I'm able to make outgoing calls ok (albeit with a bit of stuttering) but when I get an incoming call the call is immediately terminated (as though pressing the hang-up button), then the phone's own native call answering screen comes up, which I have to close using the 'x' button in the top-right then things just run very slowly and it takes about a minute to get back to the today screen.

I've got Touchflo 3d turned off as I hate it and run Spb mobile shell instead.

I had exactly the same set up on my Kaiser and never had any problems like this. I don't have S2P. It's the standard uk vodafone rom.

Any suggestions please? I've had to uninstall s2u2 for now (and the bluetooth connections work perfectly with no lag) which is a shame as I otherwise find it extremely useful.

PS I always have a headset icon present in the notification bar at the top regardless of whether one is actually connected or not, even if bluetooth is off - don't know if this is relevant.

Weather...?

Has there been a fix released for the weather no showing?

:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cxi:
When I had slowdown like this I noticed the menu in the upper right of the screen use to switch/close apps was missing on the home screen. I finally discovered that my notification queue was messed up. You might try looking up how to repair the notification queue and try that. Since I updated to a new ROM a few days ago that issue has gone away, so I'm assuming it was the SYS files in use at that time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kaneelias:
Which version are you running? A_C fixed the error with the weather line not being shown in 2.04 only a couple of hours after it was discovered. It is not a hotfix, just redownload 2.04 from his site.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ukdoc:
Ok - back to the drawing board! Come back s2u2 all is forgiven. Appears it's a problem even with s2u2 completely uninstalled. Sometimes when a bluetooth headset is connected I can accept incoming calls, sometimes it automatically hangs up after one ring. Usually if I do a soft reset it will work for a while but after being connected a few minutes or making an outgoing call, it will no longer accept incoming calls.

For now I'm not sure why this is happening. I don't get any problems at all when a headset isn't connected. I might try a different bluetooth headset to see if it's that causing the problems. At the moment it links up with my Alpine stereo, which has a built in bluetooth hands-free set-up; it's basically a Parrot system from what I've been told.

I've got a Jabra bluetooth headset in a drawer somewhere so might give that a try.

I think with the Alpine it might be a problem with the phone book integration causing the problems. The Alpine could get all my phone book information fine from the Kaiser (names & numbers etc) but with the tp2 it only finds a list of numbers when I do a phone book search.

Hi there!

Does anyone know if it’s possible to block the hardbuttons of the phone without enabling the Caller ID / Slide to Answer combo in S2U2?? I noticed that the buttons on my Touch Diamond2 are active even with the S2U2 unlock screen is visible (the “long press” End Call button function is working for instance). I want to have the hardbuttons disabled and see the original incoming call screen of the phone. Is this possible?

Side notice – there is no Mute option for the ringer on the S2U2 incoming call screen. Maybe there is a way to implement it. It's handy sometimes. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ArtieQ:
It seems the Slide2Answer is activated even tho it is totally off in the settings, I had to hardreset my phone two days ago (not because of S2U2) and before I reinstalled S2U2, I had the normal thing when there was an incoming call while the phone was locked with S2U2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sean D.:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Biker1:
v2.04 is working nicely.

The issues regarding rebooting are resolved.

Setting is at 35s which is optimal in my case.

Thank you A_C

Looks like this version is working pretty smoothly for everyone except for a few issues.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MACkjam:
There is no "solution" to this. Again, let's look at the main function of S2U2 - it's simply a screen locking application (with many other functions and features), which as you know, locks ALL hardware buttons and screen except the power button so as not to accidentally press something.

So if you want to use an app assigned to a hardware button, then you have to exit S2U2 first. You can place an exception in the registry, but that only applies when the app is actually running.

I hope that this sheds some light on your question.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] andylyf:
thanks a lot, i ask this because when i using WM6.5 lock, i can press the hardware key to activate voice command while the phone remains lock.

So when i cant do the same for s2u2, i was wondering what i can do to enable it.

Thanks for the explanation....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] test9876543:
Just thought I'd post my solution to battery issues I've experienced with 2.04:

With v2.02d I had great battery life but my Samsung Omnia crashed now and then when I received a text message or received a call which was more than annoying. I've installed v2.04 which fixed the crashes, but the battery life was in the gutter. From 100% charge down to 40% in 26 hours with no usage of the phone and only GPS network enabled. I've then copied the ilock.exe from the 2.02d on my phone and left s2u2.exe of 2.04 on the phone. The battery issue is resolved - 100% charge and 28 hours later with minor phone usage it's still at 100%!

Not quite sure what was changed in ilock.exe from 2.02d to 2.04 but for me it was a step back and caused more issues than it solved.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wildman:
I have a question... Since it appears that S2U2C (Slide2Unlock2 Customizer) in no longer in development do to recent product changes, has anyone learned a trick to modify the "slide 2 Unlock" animation on Version 2.04 application? I have looked through the registry and checked settings logs to see if this is listed without no luck, maybe I’m overlooking the setting but S2U2C kind of spoiled us and I haven’t tried to do this the old fashion way in a long while. I prefer a custom animation over stock.

*

If anyone can direct me to the registry or location to change this it would be appreciated.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eww245:
It can be changed in the lang.ini file.

The first line is s_S2UText=slide to unlock

The file must remain in Unicode format
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msjfb:
I would like to have this choice of behaviour: Unlock on stylus removal AND stay unlocked (no timeout) while stylus is out.

The reasoning behind this is that if the stylus is out, one is bound to be using the phone. I am running out of registry slots for exceptions...

If anyone knows how to do this with version 2.04 (registry setting or other) that would be great, otherwise consider this a feature suggestion.

Thanks

Stange Issue: Photo & Caller Number not showing on Slide To Answer/Ignore Page.

I have been having this issue with multiple ROMs and multiple S2U2 versions for over 6 months. I have so far been unable to figure out the issue. I have tried every possible combination of settings possible.

What happens is that sometimes when the phone is off and a call comes in the phone wakes up and I can see the top part of the incoming call page and bottom part which shows the Slide To Answer/Ignore button. The problem is that the photo and phone number of the caller are missing and there is no way to find out who is calling.

I am not using the S2U2 called ID feature and have never even enabled it.

I am attaching the screenshot of the problem so its easier for others to understand.

Its not an actual screenshot becuase I tried a lot and the problem was'nt happening when I was taking the screenshot.

I made this on photoshop but its pretty much what my phone looks like when i'm experiencing that problem.

S2U2+PhonEx = Default ringtone while standby

Hi,

I'm using 2.04 and found that if there is incoming call (I didn't use S2U2 caller ID, I use PhonEx incoming call) and I have many categories and assigned different ringtone for all of them. The ringtone while incoming call is using the ringtone set in Start->Settings->Personal->Phone not the ringtone predefined in PhonEx categories. But if there's incoming call while the device is not suspend, the ringtones for each categories are correct. And if I disable S2U2 (via iLock2) and turn off device (press power button) and test, the ringtones are correct.

I already tried:

- but only Blank Screen : ON, Don't suspend Power : ON

- but only Blank Screen : OFF, Don't suspend Power : ON

- but only Blank Screen : ON, Don't suspend Power : OFF

- but only Blank Screen : OFF, Don't suspend Power : OFF

but none of them works......

My device : Samsung i900

OS : 6.1

All of my ringtones stored at \My Documents\My Ringtones (Main memory)

Many thanks in advance, :)

is there a way to add beejive im noifications??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spelverso:
Sorry. Simply didn't saw that. :o

Pleeeeease A_C:

THAT'S NOT TRUE!!!

A lot of persons use Wisbar Advance...it has an option tu turn on/off buttons on the taskbar when certain apps are running: i.e. I could set WA3 tu disable the start menu button when S2U2 is in front of the screen or, i.e., the clock (in the taskbar) when the today screen is shown.

Moreover on my old diamond (now I've ot an Omnia) I used to run iDiamond (made by D_Man): it has a lock page that don't cover the taskbar...so: I never had an undesired touch of it (the taskbar is not so easy to touch when the devie in your pocket).

Please, I saw that iContact has got an option to show itself in fullscreen or not, throttlelock too...a lot of apps let the user to decide it. Why don't leave to the user this coise? Maybe the same thing will be good for s2V and for S2P. It will be very very nice if you add it AS OPTION (so everyone could decide by itsel).

Personally I will be glad to donate something for this thing.

TIA.

When my phone (i908) set to vibrate and use s2u2 callerID, sometimes it vibrate without sound, sometimes it still play sound (the sound file is notify.wma)without vibrate. Then I found it play the sound file in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{33765136-8cb9-449a-b020-43ed400ab8fc}] wave key. If I change the wave key to a wav file without sound, sometimes s2u2 vibrate, sometimes it do not play sound or vibrate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] atomic2mod:
I love the feature to view & dismiss messages on the lock screen.

I would like the notification buttons way bigger, though. Right now, I have to aim pretty tight and hit it with my fingernail. I'd like to use my thumb. Is there a way to make the icons much bigger? Like the size of of the slider arrow?

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] greenskeeper805:
This is also the only thing that i find irritating with S2U2. I think that if the icons were bigger my life would be perfect.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nqnguyen2:
I agree. However, depending on the size increase I think it may clutter the "look" of S2U2. Perhaps we can have the size increased by 10% and also increase the hit area by 2-3%? If the notification buttons had to big maybe we could have an option to have them appear slightly less opaque.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mad Majk:
Are You refering to the Information tab in Settings? Where You can set the time format and clock type? Witch clock format are You trying to change?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jokes On You:
I think what A_C is getting at if someone can acess the taskbar(even if they cant press a button) it doesnt make it a simple lock program. Adding that option could cause bugs and other unwanted problems that I know A_C doesnt want to deal with. Also from my understanding this is just an aesthetics problem rather than fuctionality and A_C seems focused on getting all his programs working correctly rather than looks.
