[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] andoy:
Is anyone else experiencing this? I read from the guide to just press the symbol key (lowest left corner) and any other key to type a symbol. I tried this but it functions exactly like the 'blue' key.

Also, when i double click my space bar, it doesn't interpret it as a period. Even though I've already enabled the option in my settings.

Finally is there a way for the pro to display on screen keyboard? just curious even though I won;t be using it.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] andoy:
Nevermind, I figured it out. I unintentionally turned off the default input setting under the locale and text settings.

Everything is working fine now, even the on screen keyboard is present.

I have set the backlight in settings to 3 minutes i find this is plenty of time to read and change pages on mobireader
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
+1

I use settings of 3 mins to dim backlight, 5 mins screen turns off.

I get what your saying though, you'd like some kind of backlight profile app so that you dont have to change the settings everytime right?

Now I want this too and its all your fault..............;)

Im off hunting, I'll let you know if I find anything......

Ive got a hunch that lumos might be capable of this but I tried it a few months and had some trouble installing it.....

Like I said, Ill let you know if I find anything...........

Didnt find anything.............. sorry......

Might be worth putting in a request in the themes and apps section..

Shouldnt be too difficult for a dev to create a little app to switch between backlight profiles, might even be possible with mortscript but I have no idea about these things.......

If anyone is interested in replacing their default lockscreen, I recommend Widget Locker. It's on the market for 1.99 but well worth it. I tried them all, LockBot Pro, Lock 2.0, etc, however, Widget Locker is by far the best. Very smooth, no lag, does not drain battery or have any FC's. I've been using it for a couple of days now without any issues. It's up to you whether you want to put widgets on your screen or simply just change the background/lock style. Enjoy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
I also recommend Widget Locker..

Its afaik the fastest one..

Screenshot of it:

I use Fency Widget on Top, then SMS Unread count for SMS and for missing calls...

Maybe a music player widget would be coul.

You can enable/disable interactions with widgets.

It would be very cool, if you would be able to hide widgets, if the are not used or sth (would need an interface for interactions).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thomkat:
Found it on market for 1.99 ??
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
OH MY!!! this app is so worth the money! so many lock screen options!

BEST!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bigbuffalo:
Sorry, I thought it was .99. I've updated the original post.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
seriously this lock screen is perfect i would of paid more, thankyou OP i was looking for something like this :D

how often does the Dev update the app?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
I wrote an E-Mail to the author, because during phonecalls the launcher was sometimes enabled..

After several days a new update where out with new additional features..

does the drop/pull down music player control widget still function with widget locker?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
Awesome! i'll try it out :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kevin@TeslaCoil:
I released WidgetLocker 1.0 on June 16th and it's on 1.2.2 now (July 27th). The version integer is at 12 but I'm not sure I actually released that many to the public (I don't always bump it for betas but do sometimes).

As it matures more the updates will probably get slower (And less necessary). But it's still young and already the best lockscreen on the market. And I have plenty more ideas and things to implement (And alas some bugs still to fix).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
You can enable the notification bar in the widget locker lockscreen..

So the music player should work too.. You can also interact with the widgets if you press an activate button (which you can configure).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] furstrated:
im sorry, but the music player in notification bar is diffrent from the music control widget in the default lock screen and enabling the notification bar would be defeating the purpose of the lock screen, i think.

i might try this though to check if the music player control in the default lockscreen will work with widgetlocker
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
As long as you do not press the "activation" key, the display stays black and you cannot interfact with widgets or the notfication bar..

I dont know the music player from the original widget locker..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
Dear Dev, still loving the app, can you on your next release please have an option to play/assign unlocking sounds, that would be even better :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kevin@TeslaCoil:
For next release you'll get to play an unlocking sound. Release after that you'll get to assign your own. I'm trying to get the next release wrapped up quickly since it includes some Sense-Froyo fixes and that just hit the Desire and EVO.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rafaelpinaf:
I didn't find the Widget Locker on Market.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] OrionBG:
You probably see only the free apps! There was fix somewhere here in the forum for this!

You're right. I see only the free apps!

Thanks my friend!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Kodijack:
I really like this app too, but the name sucks. Have tried it because i thought i can lock WIDGETS for input. Never thought of it being a lockscreen :-)

So quite misleading i guess...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] steffe.jst:
Using it as well and enjoying it.

Got one issue though... sometimes the stock lock screen shows up for a second or so before it's replaced with the widget locker. Any idea as to why that is and/or how to sort it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rafaelpinaf:
Here, to answer a call, I must unlock the WidgetLocker Screen for after see who is calling to me on stock LockerScreen.

Ideas for how anwser a call and see who is calling on WidgetLocker?

Thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] steffe.jst:
I sorted that by enabling Settings/Behaviour/Show In Call in the widget locker settings, hope that's what you were looking for.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Kryston:

Exiting handcent after receiving SMS -> still ends up in tool mode (WidgetLocker)

Hi!

Just bought Widgetlocker and found it to be working great. There is one annoying thing I noticed though..

When receiving a SMS in off-screen mode, handcent displays an popup message on my lockscreen which is all good and well. I can then choose to quickreply or to open the handcent app. When doing the latter, I still end up with the lockscreen (WidgetLocker) again in Tool Mode, after exiting handcent. No reason why the lockscreen should show up again (since I've exited locked mode), and certainly not in Tool Mode??

Any way to fix this, so that it doesnt reappear lile this?

Thanks!

abyway to disable the home button on the galaxy s. i disabled home button in settings/buttons. but pressing home while on widget locker lockscreen takes me home.

ok figured that out, i inadvertently bound my launcher to home key in wdgetlocker settings. unbound it and home is disabled
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] satta:
Same here. No one else experiencing this issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] furstrated:
my biggest gripe is that widgetlocker activates over the standard lockscreen and i lose the pull down music control if musicplayer is active. no more control for the music player on the lock screen. i tried mixzing and put the mixzing widget on the widget locker lockscreen but it results in too much lag. if only the stock music player supports inline mic button control for back and next, it wouldnt be so bad
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] daClaus:
well, I'm not sure what the problem is, but if you mean the player control that's in the pull down from the notification bar, that works. Just tried it. Maybe you have an incorrect setting?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] furstrated:
did you disable your notification bar? i disabled mine because it allows bypass of the lockscreen. so how did you enable the musc control with the notification bar hidden?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
@steffe.jst

love your app, suggestion can you make an option that when home button is pressed it shows notification bar...

Also any one know how to remove the stock lock? or is it hardcoded to the OS?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kgk888:
I use launcher pro instead of the crap touch wiz, but there seem to be comments in the market that Widget Locker doesn't work well with Launcher Pro and gives a lot of FCs. Can anyone confirm? Don't want to drop the money on an app if it didn't work with commonly used launchers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] steffe.jst:
Personally never experienced FC's using WidgetLocker. The one or two times I've had one I haven't really been able to connect it to using LauncherPro.

I'd say go ahead, spend some money. I don't think you'll be disappointed but if you are you could just return it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Gibbz1:
I still can see the samsung lock screen flick up for a bit and occasionally too the home screen flicks up before showing this custom lockscreen, any ideas if this will be fixed?

I noticed using the app "no lock" got rid of the lock screen, might be worth having that built into this app??
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
You my friend are the MAN!! thank you works well!

To the Dev please somehow intergrate this lovely coding to your next update.. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] odyssey61:
I tried it today and I found that on start up the screen would go black with only a quick flash of the home screen. I thought I was going to have to reflash. Needless to say once I got in I uninstalled it. It is too unstable with Launcher Pro which is a shame as its nice app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kgk888:
Just downloaded it and it works great combined with "Unlocked" from the marketplace.

One question though: Is there a way to disable that annoying notification bar message that perpetually sits there?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kgk888:
I'm using it right now with Launcher Pro and it's smooth as butter. Runs perfectly.

I'm on JM5 Samset 1.9e with OneClickLagFix 2-3.

You might want to check out "No Lock" from the marketplace and run that with it. It disables the stock Samsung lock screen and prevents a sort of "double lock screen" effect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
i cant seem to find unlocked, only no lock. does no lock prevents the double lock screen effect?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kgk888:
Wups, yea it's called No Lock. My bad.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
i downloaded no lock and purchased the widget locker. however whenever i try to unlock my phone. my homescreen always pop out 1st for 0.5 sec. how to make the widget locker load instantly =(

actually this is the 2nd time i purchase it. initially i didnt know there is a application call "no lock". Anyway im using samset 1.9e jm5 plus lagfix 2.3 but launcherpro..

can anyone guide me for the best setting?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kgk888:
I have the exact same setup as you.

JM5 Samset 1.9e, OneClickLagFix 2-3 and Launcher Pro.

And I haven't the slightest idea what you're referring to. I have No Lock turned on, and when I press the power button I get the Widget Locker screen lock, swipe it and it drops me straight into Launcher Pro.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] NZtechfreak:
Thanks for alerting me to No Lock - brilliant! Solves the only complaint I had about Widget locker.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
Did you made widgetlocker to the default launcher?

I see the default secreen for short time very rare..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
i did set to default home. one qns. does the no lock service needs to run all the times? cos its currently on the running services.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
Yeah, otherwhise it cannot replace the original lockscreen ;)

It would be sth else, if you can compile it into the samsung sources...

I searched for some log-strings, which i got from adb logcat, but i didnt find anything in the samsung sources...

Because if you could disable/eleminate the lockscreen, you should never see it again ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
yea that would be good. i found out if i used the power button to on the screen instead of home button it works better. and also is it just me or do u guys experience more battery drainage? my phone used to drop only 2-3 percents when i slp for 8 hours but now when i waked up it drops 10 percents :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
In airplane mode or in standard mode?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
standard mode. but my battery is back to normal :D i tried uninstalling "no lock" and i slept for 6 hours. wake up still fully charged. so i guess "no lock" doesnt run smoothly for my phone. anyway i use the enable power button to remove the stock lockscreen. hence i dont think i need tat "no lock" anymore.:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
Oho, so what do you made that you removed/disabled the standard lockscreen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
I dl samsung galaxy s info from the market and enable set power button. Its a bug actually. Now I dont see my lockscreen anymore. :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
So you downloaded this?

http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.sgsinfo

And then what? Just "set powerbutton action"? Or sth else?

And which FW? And is then just the powerbutton unlocking the screen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
its disables the option shutdown,flight mode when long press on the power button, it just shutsdown if enabled..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
And this prevents the lockscreen to appear?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
YUP sure does :)

been enabled for a few hours now.. did not appear at all...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
But there must be a way to disable the power button without paying .5€ ;)

I mean it is not much, but i dont pay for free codes...

Google, 1 second:

*#*#7594#*#* This code can be used to change the "Power" button action in your phone. Be default, if you long press the button, it shows a screen asking you to select any option from Silent mode, Airplane mode and Power off.You can change this action using this code. You can enable direct power off on this button.

;)

To what did you switched it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
Just enable the powerbutton and the lockscreen will be gone as its a bug either frm samsung or android. It works on jm5. All the best. Cheers.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] fredphoesh:
I wonder if there is a way to remove the lock screen without losing the power button's choices when press and holding.

The No Lock app does not work properly, it keeps on getting killed by Android, and lasts about 5 minutes!

It would be great to have a screen locker that did not have bugs (Widgetlocker) or NONE at all, ie just a button to power screen off and on. That would be ideal.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
Unfortunately there is no other way other than enabling the power button and the no lock app. the prob to me for the no lock app is draining the battery. but if u set the no lock app to ignore list it wont get killed. i guess theres a price to pay if u wanna achieve something. hehe. i think the best option is to just enabling the power button and if u wanna use airplane mode u could try extended control widget and download quickboot for quick reboot. i seldom use the power buttom except locking the phone :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] fredphoesh:
Hi there,

Appkiller does not have an ignore list AFAIK, just a non-permanent way to lower its chances of getting killed, but that seems a very temporary setting.

Advanced Task Manager does, but I set that to ignore, so far that seems to work... holding thumbs... tx.

Hello!

You could use the widgets also on homescreen, etc..

Somebody knows?

Found it: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.appventive.ExecAssist It was assistant and not activities :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] odyssey61:
I use Autokiller which is memory manager and not an app killer. This allows No Lock to keep running in the background which then doesnt interfere with Widget Lock.

On another note does anyone know if you can extend the timeout before it turns off at the lockscreen?

When WidgetLocker is activated I feel like the battery drains faster, anyone else or just me? :confused:

Edit:

Doing some research I suspect WL to start some Apps in the background. Which would explain the battery drains.

Because after settings WL to active a few minutes later (10-15min) I see a lot of Apps, like AppBrain, TaskManager, Voicedial, My Market, Amazon MP3... running in background. Using Advanced Task Killer I can see those Apps. I assure that after activating WL I didn't touched my phone for the next 20min.

Who else experiencing this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
So WidgetLocker is starting apps and not android by itself?

I am always wondering, why some programs are running/starting in the background which i never or not very often use..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MagicOnline:
I hope its android and not WL but I cant tell you exactly. I just did a reboot w/o WL active, now I am monitoring running tasks. It is unbelievable how much apps starts in background right after a reboot. I have disabled autokill feature of Advanced Task Killer. Still monitoring ...

Edit:

11:27am

After monitoring one hour with ATK (autokill disabled) no Apps started in background. Monitoring one more hour. If everything stays clean I start WL and watch whats happening.

01:21pm

After one more hour here are some apps which started in background

I started now my WL. And also I do apologize for taking WL as suspect. Android is starting stuff in the background.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RayEarth:
I've disabled the power button to allow for Widgetlock.

However, I now turn off the phone "by accident" WAY too often. Especially when the phone is lagging, and I press the power button twice, then phone would then interpret that as a "long press" and turn off the phone! (it then takes 5mins+ to turn back on with media scanning on my 16gb SD card).

Anyway to assign the button to something else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kindaichi24:
i was like u. but i overcome this bad habit of pressing the power button too long. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thE_29:
But do you have PIN disabled? Because on reboot, the "enter pin" dialog is missing :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] katsuru:
The only solution i see is reseting the poweroff settings to its default so the button goes back to its stock functionality.

Then download from the market "No Lock" app.

When performing a fresh start, after boot disable no lock app, turn the screen off, wait 1-3secs, turn screen on again so you can enter your Pin code. Resume No lock.
