I have a HTC jade running PDAViet v27 and also experienced the issue off Galarm hanging when initialised, i applied the fix straight away so not sure if it was this or not...I;ve also been experiencing more random freezing of the device also as well as a strange RED ERROR in the middle of the screen??

I'm back to 2.22 now and all is well...i have a suspision it is something to do with taking over the default win 6.5 locking...

I have a htc tp2 sprint stock rom 6.1 . First off I would like to thank you for a perfictly working software i havn't had any real issues at all so THANK YOU. the only thing that is frustrating me is i've always had s2u2 and about 3 months ago i purchased spb mobile shell 3.5 and now im addicted to both , the problem is that before spb i had the little notifications for mms sms missed phone calls and em , now they all still work except the sms, i've kinda followed the thred and i know the wether is not doable at least for now so i won't even ask lol, but if mms and em are is it a glitch on my phone or is this a known issue ? please help.

I can confirm this post. I use the latest version of G-Alarm and have no problem.

v2.30 hotfix updated

@ALL

Just updated another hotfix for v2.30. Please get it at here.

Don't blame on me if you think that's too frequent.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Albator V:
Many thanks for fixing bug so speedly...

REQ: can you add option to display "Location" (in parenthesis) under date.

BEHAVIOR: when i plug my HD2 to PC, i can choose between activesync, storage card and sharing connection. when i choose "storage card" and picture is on storage card, s2u2 don't display it and it's normal. but when i unplug my phone, i need to launch ilock.exe and restart s2u2 to display wallpaper again.

Finally, french translation file updated...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snowblindd:
Tried everything, even the last fix, S2u2 freezes everything when G-Alarm pops to ring the alarm. (This did not happen with SPB Time) i haven.t changed anything from 2.45, version i had uninstalled both apps and reinstalled again (deleted the registry entrys also) reinstalled and the same problem all over again. I see there are users who do not experience this, but also there are user who do. Well guess it.s back to 2.24 for now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
Try a longer "Wakeup delay" and make use of the Exception EXE list (S2U2 Settings > Advanced).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snowblindd:
Tried, even with +1 sec, still no result,( also added G-Alarm to the exception list) S2u2 freezes when g-alarm starts. Although if i touch the screen it automatically takes me to manila home tab, thus activating the alarm. To put it somewhat, S2U2 freezes ,,over the system,,(no matter how delayed it is) don.t know if you quite know what i mean. Using HD2, 1,61 Official Rom, manila version 2.5. 19211619.0. As some users reported the bug but others didn.t i am thinking it.s not jus on my device. Anyway, 10x for the constant update and looking into perfecting this.

EDIT: tried to disable wm6.5 override when you press ,,lock,, softkey but still no effect

tried with slider to the left, still no change so no GFX glitch (i think)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cyanide911:
Amazing program, especially with the middle positioning of the slider.

I'm having one problem. The default Windows lock often comes up after unlocking S2U2. I tried a reg fix which has disabled the WM6.5 lock, but the vanilla WM lock (simple tap unlock) one STILL comes up. Any solution? It's very irritating.

Also, what do you mean by 'Touch Flo music player'? Audio Manager?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rene.knight:
please, a reply to this would be much appreciated, i installed this on my friends HD2 as well and he's not too happy :P is there any way of undoing this without having to hard reset?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mad Majk:
I can confirm that the hotfix solves the unlocking problem I had. Thank You very much A_C! Will donate again soon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] khaytsus:
GAlarm is in the exception list? Also make sure that GAlarm is not rotating, at one point I noticed that GAlarm was automatically rotating to landscape based on phone orientation (and laying down typically rotates) and that did not behave well with S2U2. I make sure GAlarm was no longer listed in the auto-rotate list and no problems since.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snowblindd:
G-Alarm is added to the exception list, and it does not rotate. 2.24 works fine with G-Alarm, so it must be something with 2.30. I.ll try some other settings combinations but i doubt it will have any impact.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jcsxda:
Thanks A_C for the updates -just great and fix all mentioned issues for me too!

As mentioned by a couple above, I am also suffering huge battery drain with 2.3 though

Had not had this battery drain problem for 3-4 months (I updated to latest versions as they came out -weekly at least) but since v2.3 its noticeable ...my battery now dies during a single day, whereas it was easily 2-3 days beforehand (am using the latest hotfix, and have not added or changed anything other than S2U2)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tane71:
A_C : thanks for the hotfix, I was being mad about the "tomorrow" issue in the appoitment :)

Thanks Albator for the french full translation!

About G-Alarm, I haven't encountered any problems, it works properly with the original settings (no "exceptions" and nothing changed in the S2U2 display delay. The alarm pops up every morning and the sensor (checked device) stop/snooze options work fine. S2U2 doesn't block nor dissmiss G-Alarm (but I didn't install the GFX plugin) ;)

So I recommand you to uninstall G-Alarm, remove all the registry settings in the HKCU/Software/Ageye/G-Alarm (delete all this folder) and delete the whole G-Alarm folder in program files. Restart your device.

Then, re-install G-Alarm without the GFX plugin and try it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snowblindd:
OK found a ,,fix,, for the G-Alarm problem: (10x goes to syrguy1969 - he is somehow the apple who made gravity be discovered :))

1. Add all G-Alarm files to the exception list than soft-reset (be careful, there are a few in Windows folder, and some in Program Files)

2. In G-Alarm settings uncheck ,,Unlock Device,, (it will cancel each other)

3. Done! S2U2 will not freeze anymore (not sure why it does on some devices ... but this settings worked for me)

PS: I did try all the installing/reinstalling/reg removal/folder deleting etc. but did not work ... this way everything is back to normal. Again i am not saying that is s2u2 fault (could be my device) but it seems that other users experience this.

More about the batter drain some of us are experiencing:

Dutch language update

Updated dutch language S2U2 2.30

I only haven't translated the text when selecting to center the slide button. The translation became too long for the little space there is. Maybe someone else has some dutch translation ideas?

s_S2DDismiss=dismiss (afwijzen)

s_S2DCancel=cancel (annuleer)

s_S2DView=view (bekijk)

s_CS2UText=unlock (ontgrendel) <-- especially this one is hard to translate in a short way

more than 8 characters doesn't look good anymore...

How do I set S2U2 to control the TF3D music player? I saw that in the change log but I can't find out to set it up.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TL@:
I really love S2U2.

I only have 2 problems with it.

When using my bleutooth carkit, it sometimes hangs. It keeps showing my last call with the slider in the middle (to dismiss or acept).

It still double locks when I use the hardware lock button. When I just put the phone in standby, it locks normally, or when I let the phone lock automaticlly it also works perfectly (not a big problem, just an inconvieniance)

Thx for the great app.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dakiki:
Hi and thanks for the latest version, it works really great.

I have a question though:

I switched from HTC HD to HTC HD2 recently, and I was wondering (tried almost all options, and couldn't get it to work). Is it possible to lock the device when you manually put it to sleep?

When you hit the rightmost button on the HD2, it will shutdown the screen (but I'm not sure if it is in sleep/low-consumption mode, that's why I want S2u2 to put the phone to sleep to save my battery).

When I hit this button again it will wake up the phone, and s2u2 is not locking the device (except if I activate the "lock when device wakes up", but I want s2u2 to take control of the phone when it shuts down to save battery, not when it wakes up).

I'm not sure if my explanation is understandable or not, or if what I want to do is necessary or not (if the phone really goes to sleep, then I don't need this).

If someone has an answer, many thanks!

Htc hd2 - rom 1.66

first of all -> a great application!

everything has been working fine for my HTC HD2 - but yesterday i upgraded to the newest original HTC ROM (Germany:1.66.407.1).

with this new rom the "S2A Hard Answer Key" option doesn't seem to work anymore.

when i get a call the answer key is always active.

i've tried nearly everything (combinations with "Slide to End" on/off or "S2A" only locked/always - even had a look at the settings it in the registry,...) - but disabling the answer key doesn't seem to work with the newest rom.

anyone experiencing the same problem?

ps.: using S2U2 v2.30 with latest hotfix

Just a little remark for Albator V about your french translation on S2U2 v 2.30.

First of all thanks for your good work (of course A_C job's is fantastic), I've seen that there's a little mistake at the line

m_Appearance=Apparence

s_SlideTextMirror=Ajouter un effet miroir au texte

Where you've two rr at "miroir".

Thanks to all for your job on S2U2.

About that, just to end by a question, could someone telle me how to build a theme with my tweaks ?

WIP

From the WIP (work in progress) page on A_C's S2 website:

"Don't you think 2-way slider is a bit wasted while sliding different directions should have different functions."

A_C, i agree. Another consequence of centering the slider is that it makes the unlock path shorter, thus making accidentally unlocking easier. Not a big deal, but still...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] katerini:
With the hotfix on 2.30 version, works very well on Samsung Omnia 2. Only the new SMS is not show. I can hear the sound, but wenn i power on the phone, i can not see that i have new sms.

Omnia 2 uses its own application for SMS. But i Have desable this, and i can read and whrite the messages with the old windows application. But S2U can not see that i have a new message.

Is it possible to fix it?

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ladios:
Since the first release of v2.30, S2U2 no longer aware whether any phone call is ended.

i.e. when any call ended, it will stop updating the status of "connected mm:ss" and remain unchange until iLock2 is restarted. It won't show "disconnected mm:ss".

If I don't restart iLock2, instead of S2A/S2E, all the later incoming calls show the three buttons of "ignore", "hold and answer", and "end and answer".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
Well, that is at least more than I get. Mine never shows "connected" status. Therefore even no "disconnected".

Windows Mobile 6.5 Default Lock

I still sometimes see default windows lock. How can avoid it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beefheart:
Works superbly on my Leo, thanks.

One quick thing though, I have the 12 button actionscreen installed (Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen v 1.1.cab) which is activated on a long press of the power button and this is still available when locked using S2U2. Is there a way of stopping this.

S2U2 on Touch HD

I tried the latest version on my Touch HD. The sliders are very unreliable for me. Sometimes I can't unlock the phone on an incoming call, the slider simply doesn't move. I also activated the incall lock, here I never was able to unlock the phone. I can't move the slider.

Is there a solution for that or is my Blackstone simply to slow to handle the sliders of S2U2 2.30?

Problem with 3rd party software Alarm Master

Hi,

Thank you for this great app.

I am using Alarm Master v2.0 on my Samsung Omnia I8000 (WM6.1)

When Alarm Master's alarm pops up, it jumps over the S2U2's locked screen, it temporarily unlocks it I guess because when I snooze or dismiss the alarm the screen is back to it's locked state with the slide-to-unlock button is displayed.

Is a there way to unlock the screen first by sliding S2U2 then dealing with the Alarm Master's alarm? (if removed from exceptional exe list the Alarm Master alarms are dismissed automatically before I unlock the screen by sliding)

It works great with windows' own alarms, reminders etc.

When I use SBP Shell's (v3.5.0) lock feature I can do this, but with S2U2 the alarm master always jumps on top.

My current LOCK related settings are:

Lock when device wakes up: OFF

Password Lock: OFF

Lock System Notification: ON

Don't lock system: OFF

Thanks for your help.

Slider not working well

In the last two versions (2.24 and 2.30) the slider is not sensitive enough. When I try to slide it fast from left to right it doesn't work for the first 3 tries only in the forth on it opens the lock. I didn't have this problem with the 2.22 version.

Using TYTN II w.m6.5 (v4.3 by shifu).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A_C:
Please try the hotfix at here. The file is just updated but I have not updated the post yet. Let me know the result & your setting of "Incall lock" & "Blank on talk".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chrissi323:
Thanks for your input.

Changing the inertia doesn't fix my problem. It seems that whenever the phone has a call active, the sliders are so hard to move, that it is impossible to reach the other side. I can reproduce this with in incall lock.

Unlocking the phone from the lockscreen without a call always works.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tanglang1:
Thanks, I tried the hotfix but the slider is still sluggish and doesn't respond to a fast slide :(

btw, where can I find the skin you are using in the pictures? (the one i get when installing doesn't have the two white squares for the clock and the gray background)

Thanks for the quick update, but it's still the same...

And btw, I didn't tell you that when that happened, S2U2 doesn't response to any tapping eg. changing clock style, notifications, etc. but it's ok to unlock the screen.

My settings:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] apaseall:
I love S2U2.

I've been using it for at least a year now on my HTC Elf.

It does lock up the phone forcing me to soft reset after receiving a call.

Not a great big problem so I've not bothered with it.

I've just got a HTC Leo.

Installed S2U2 v2.30.

I've got a couple of questions so I came here looking for answers.

I've just spent the last 4 hours trying to read this thread.

I can only make one comment - IT IS WAY TO LONG.

How can anyone be expected to find an answer to their question if they have 430+ pages to trawl through?

Surely there has to be a better way ?

Anyway to my questions.

1. The slide to unlock/answer button is tiny.

Is there anyway I can get it bigger ?

2. The icons for tasks, missed calls, sms etc are tiny.

Anyway of getting them bigger ?

3. The text that appears once I've hit the tasks icon is readable so no problems there however it is very narrow thus only part of the text is visible.

Is there anyway of increasing the visible area available for text for these popups ?

4. I don't want to use the S2U2 password option.

It is too small to use. It is limited to 4 digits.

I do want to use the Leo built in password option.

However I don't want to use the Leo built in slide to unlock.

In other words what I want to do is this.

Slide to unlock (using S2U2) then enter password (using Leo password).

Is this possible ?

5. I have weather info thanks to Leo build in stuff.

Is there anyway of displaying that in S2U2.

Atm no weather info appears no matter which option I use.

Observation.

Leo is a touch screen that is not designed for stylus use.

S2U2 settings program is extremely difficult to use because the targets we are trying to hit are exremely small and my fingers are not.

Once more, I love S2U2, it is THE first app to be installed on any HTC phone.

edit...

6. On the lock screen I see an tiny icon in the upper right corner that looks like a bluetooth indicator.

Bluetooth is switched off. No icon is visible once the S2U2 is unlocked.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FrancisB1:
I don't really know if I'm in the right place to ask that. So forgive me and I hope my question will be heard and sent where it has to be...

In my 64MB Elf, I notice a bug:

After receiving a voice call, the clock changed (from "clockD to "clockS")
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
MultiMatt and apaseall....I know this is very basic and you probably already know/checked, but it sounds like you each have the QVGA version installed on your VGA devices.

Sorry if you already checked this, but it really sounds like it because it is a very 'finger-friendly' app and your descriptions/images really don't look to scale for your devices.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beefheart:
I suspect the point is no one else is having this issue which is why no one has answered. I certainly don't have to unlock twice so I suggest you check your settings or uninstall S2U2 then reinstall it.

Alternatively, uninstall S2U2 then, using something like BSB Tweaks or edit the registry, set the auto lock to off. Reset your phone then reinstall S2U2.

I am using the stock Sprint Touch Pro 2 ROM and when I receive a picture mail and the phone is locked (S2U2 screen up with the slider) and I receive a picture mail it popup will come up with the option to dismiss or view. If you click on view it will bypass S2U2 and you can see my text picture mail. This is also the case with the voicemail popup.
