I do get the WiFi on/off both when Delayed Lock is enabled and disabled. Minor annoyance, but had me thinking the plugin was running separately and hence vulnerable to OS mem management.

When it false enables the lock, I've noticed the vibrate alarm. I think, not sure, I've seen the toast a couple of times as well, when there should not have been any WiFi change (harder to notice the errant toasts of course). I run Tasker but don't change the WiFi or lock state with it.

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
the plugin is running separately but it just wakes when it receives a wifi-state-changed broadcast from the android system, enables / disables the lock and then stops. so there shouldnt be any memory consumption if your wifi state doesnt change.

also if it vibrates then something want Delayed Lock to enable the lock again. maybe any other plugin installed? does the notification say it's disabled because of the wifi plugin?

Hi,

I tried out your app. The app is doing the delayed lock fine but the screen wakes up when it does that. Yes, I read the FAQ and have given it admin access and it still does that.

I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2 (as per FAQ, I have also set the service to always run in background).

Here are few facts that may help you diagnose the problem:

- phone/kernel/ROM info in my signature

- I don't have any auto task killer installed

- I have widget locker installed
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
can you send me an email through the app's "report a problem" option (advanced settings) so i get some more information about your configuration? thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] exempli_gratia:
I've been trying to narrow this down, and it happened a bunch of times with the previous version. Since the new version last week, has not happened once. Excellent.

Don't know if there was anything intentionally changed for this, but what ever did change, the issue has not happened since. Thanks.

Location Configuration

Hello,

Great app. But on my Nexus One I can't seem to configure the location plugin. I tried it on my Galaxy S II, and it works like a charm (both running CM7 Nightlies). I get to the map, and I touch a location, and nothing happens. I've tried stopping the plugin, uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling and I still can't configure it. Strange, eh?

It was restored from a Titanium backup after a fresh install of CM.

Nexus S?

Hi,

on my nexus s (android 2.3.6, rooted, but official firmware),

the screen goes on at the time when it should lock itself.

In the delayedLock application menu I can't find the 'admin method'.

Is that gone, or am I just looking at the wrong place ?

Any help is appreciated.

Edit: I used the trial version, not sure if that matters though
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
open the app and click on the > at the bottom once. the second checkbox should say something about admin priviledges or something.

Delayed Lock password error

This seems like the perfect screen unlock application given the level of customization available.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work for me on my Galaxy Nexus.

I have the product set to lock-up after waiting 30 minutes following the screen turning off. I assume that means that prior to the 30 minutes the Galaxy Nexus ICS should present a slider rather than the password that would normally have to be entered.

Currently, the screen turns off and the lockup screen is presentated after only 10 minutes (based on my ICS settings). When I hit the power button, I have to reenter my 8 digit password.

Am I doing something wrong during the set-up?

My assumption was that the password I provided with the 'Deactivate lock' entry (which matches my screen lockup password) would be automatically typed in when I hit the power key and slid the slider across. This would then unlock my device.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the Delayed lock application is doing anything.

Please help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
is the notification shown? if so, your password lock should have been deactivated and you should be able to use the power button to turn off your device without locking it. also make sure you don't have full device encryption enabled or an exchange email account which requires a password code.

you can send me an email through the app's "report a problem" option in the advanced settings which includes some of your settings if you want me to check these

I'm using an ATT SGS2 on GB 2.3.6. The newest update gave me the ability to disable pattern, which was what i wanted for some time. I used TiBu to make it a system app, reset, and tried to set that option. However, i got a message that said that the lock_pattern_autolock check didn't work. I noticed that it didn't even request root before it denied my attempt.

Did i do something wrong? Does this feature work on GB?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
can you post the exact message or even part of the logcat output when the error occurs?

normally it should work since Froyo, though I could only test it on ICS. Root is only required to install the app to /system/app, so DelayedLock itself should not ask for root
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Quadra_Slam:
I am to busy to learn how to get a logcat at the moment; maybe in a few hours. The message says:

"Error

There was an error checking the requirements: lock_pattern_autolock

Ok"

Sent from my SGH-I777
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
okay i got it: you need to setup a pattern lock in the android security settings first. i'll adjust that error message for the next version

1) Why does my phone randomly wake up and turn on the screen with this app installed?

2) Why is the Simple Lockscreen not enabled? I have a pin set up but using the "Hide Lockscreen" option and have Simple Lockscreen enabled. It actually worked on the trial but doesn't work on the paid...

I'm using CM7 and have the unlock slider disabled and menu unlock enabled. I have delayed lock set to 2 min after screen turns off and SLS enabled 10 sec after screen turns off. I thought Simple Lockscreen would show up 10 sec after screen turns off but nothing. Pressing any button within 2 min just unlocks it completely.

EDIT: Ok well it seems to work with Wi-Fi enabled. I downloaded that Wi-Fi add-on to disable lockscreen when connected to a specific network. The plugin is actually doing the opposite of what I want...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
either because you have checked "avoid locking delay" or not checked "admin lock"

i dont know about that. I just tested it on my real device running ICS and on the emulator running stock 2.3 and on both it worked just fine. if you write me an email, i can send you a debug version which contains some logging.

so the plugin enables the lock while connected to the network and disables it when leaving? mh that's another bug i've never heard of before and can not reproduce on my devices. i guess you should try the debug version... ^^
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] coolxal:
How does "avoid locking delay" cause the phone to wake up randomly? I can turn the screen off and leave the phone idle for 30 minutes and suddenly it'll just wake and unlock itself.

I disabled the Wi-Fi plugin and got the SimpleLockscreen working.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
because the app tries to enforce showing the lockscreen, so that it doesnt need to load the next time you turn your screen on.

also note the text for the "avoid locking delay" checkbox, which says: Avoid the delay from turning on the display until the lockscreen kicks in. Needs admin method, disable if your display turns on automatically

WidgetLocker

I am having trouble getting WidgetLocker and DelayedLock to work together. First, I am currently using the trail version of DelayedLock, if that makes any difference.

I am trying to use WidgetLocker with a pattern lock on my LG G2X running the stock 2.3.3 ROM. I do have root, and have given DelayedLock admin permission.

If I do not select "Use SimpleLockscreen", whenever the device is locked, I see the WidgetLocker screen, the default lock screen, and then the pattern lock screen.

If I select "Use SimpleLockscreen" and select "Use WidgetLocker as SimpleLockscreen" I just see the default lock screen, and then the pattern lock screen.

I am not sure what "Unlock WidgetLocker" and "Start SimpleLockscreen X seconds after screen goes off" are supposed to do but they seem to have no affect on my device."
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
mh, if you're still on android 2.3, you can try using the "hide lock method". this should get rid of the android slide lockscreen
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Hi,

First many thanks for this great app, even if it is a bit complicated to setup / debug:

I have a small issue

My setup is

- i9100, stock ICS (LP7, rooted with CF_root)

- I have pattern lock enabled. I setup delayed lock as system app + admin checked

- Delay is set to 120 mn

- I use the widget with action: "toggle lock"

My issue is:

When I disable the lock using the widget, it is disabled as supposed. Now, when I enable the lock again using the widget, if I lock the phone with power button, when I turn the screen on, I get, as expected the pattern lock. Once the device unlocked, my widget automatically disables the lock again. It will disable it until the 2h delay is reached.

Basically, what I expect it to do:

1 - when I disable the lock, it will be auto-enabled after 2h if I didn't do it manually

2 - when I manually enable the lock, it stays enabled until I disable it manually again. The delay would start again from the new unlocked state.

Actually, step 1 is ok. However, in step 2, your app will keep disabling the lock on each unlock of screen until the delay is reached

Is this by design or a bug? How do I make it stop auto-disabling lock once I enabled it manually with the widget?

Many many thanks for your help
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
well, this is the way the app should work. when you unlock your device, the lock will be disabled until the delay time elapses.

in your case, you should try the "disable delayed lock" widget. then you can disable / enable the app with the widget. once the app is disabled, it will not delay your lock, so whenever you turn it off, it'll be locked. if you then enable the app again, it will delay the lock once successfully unlocked.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Many thanks for a so prompt support, it works indeed but a little glitch:

1- After you disable the lock, the first time you turn off the screen, when you turn it back on, you'll still have to enter the pattern to effectively disable the lock. After that first time, the unlock is effective. Is it possible to make it effectively disable the lock as soon as you disable it on the widget?

2- when I use the widget as you suggested, with enable/disable service, the notification bar action still acts as a temporary enabler of lock till delay is reached. I end up with the widget acting one way (disable service and avoid auto disabling of lock) and the notification bar acting another way (temporary enables the lock, but auto-disable on next unlock till delay is reached). Is it really risky to disable the notification to avoid this annoyance?

In fact, I'm used to No Lock, which was as easy as a one tap, but no delay...

Your app rocks on ICS, really, but a bit confusing for what I'm looking for.

3- A final cosmetic aspect: making it possible to choose a custom icon for the widget and to display or not the text is great, really unique. However, if I like to disable the text and only have an icon, the icon will be moved to bottom of the grid in launcher, taking the place of the missing bottom text. Theme alignment gets messy that way. An option I found is to enter some spaces instead of a blank text. Alignment is better, but far from perfect. Would it be possible to effectively use only the icon, at standard grid size/placement when widget text is disabled?

I appreciate your support
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
that should be the case. if not, it's a bug. in that case, please tell me your android version, the kind of lockscreen you use, which lock method you've set up in the app and any lockscreen settings in the android settings. then i can maybe explain why this happened ;)

it's not risky, but when using the "hide lock" method you might see the lockscreen more often then you should when you disable the notification. it has no influence on the other locking methods. also the notification is intented to enable the lock, independant of what widget you use. that's why the notification says "click to enable lock" ;)

if you havent entered any text, the widget is just a standard ImageView, with width and height set to "match_parent" and scale set to "fitCenter". the widget itself is set to have a min-width and min-height of 40 dp on Android 3.0+. what your launcher does with this information is up to your launcher. according to the documentation, on Android 4.0 the system sets a padding around the widget on which i have no influence.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
i9100, ICS v4.0.3 stock (XW LP7), root with CF_Root Kernel, lock with pattern on device

Delayed Lock Settings:

General: Enable lock set, Admin set, Deactivate pattern lock set

Delay: 2 hours, after last unlock or after screen off (doesn't change the effect of bug)

SimpleLockScreen: disable

No plugins

Advanced: only Show notifications and Keep Service Running checked

Widget Settings:

Enable / Disable Delayed lock

Steps to reproduce the little issue:

Basically, when lock is disabled via widget by enabling app, I turn off screen with power button, I turn on screen via power button, I still get my pattern lock, I unlock with pattern, I turn off screen: no more lock pattern this time when screen is turned on

Many thanks for the precisions. I'll disable the notification then in my case as it will behave differently then the setup widget.

Here are shots of what I mean

Widget with text:

Widget with no text:

Simple shortcut icon (not widget):

As you see, widget with text is a bit zoomed in (pic 1), widget with blank text is even more zoomed in + moved towards bottom (pic 2), normal app icon is perfectly centered and sized (pic3)

Above shots are from Apex Launcher, but I get same results in default TouchWiz launcher:

Edit: Note also the white lining around your app icons that makes it really not suitable for a smooth theme. Would be great if you can retouch those icons

And really great support you have :-)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
oh well, then i misunderstood you the first time because this is how it should work. "enabling the app" only means that it will now listen for the "device unlocked" broadcast and then deactivate the lock. otherwise it would be possible to install the app on a locked device to bypass the lockscreen (via adb or remote market install)

also i'll see what i can do about the widgets, i guess i have to limit the zooming somehow
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Grear, now working as supposed and I got your point about the little glitches I felt

Many thanks for the support and hope you fix the widget icon soon. Should be possible as many apps have nice sized widgets
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
I have another question:

When app is uninstalled from market to be moved to system/app, it won't show any more in my market apps list

Wondering, on next market updates if:

- would I be notified, since it no more shows on my apps list

- would I be able to update or I have to fully uninstall and then reinstall from market, uninstall and move to system?

Wouldn't be easier to replace system/app by root access?

Many thanks for the support
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
you actually don't need to uninstall it to move it. however, in some cases it's helpful to temporarily revoke the admin permission

as fas as i know, you'll receive all updates (as you also receive updates for GMail and Maps app). you are even able to uninstall the updates to get back to the first version you installed in /system/app if you don't like an update

it would, but i don't know how. the app can not move itself to /system/app, as it needs to be running to move itself.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Sorry, I just followed your guide step by step:

Well,

Just to say I got it now working as I liked it to work, thanks to your help and support.

This app deserves to be bought, just for the support :-)

Hope you fix the icons design (white pixels on border, visible on dark/black themes) and widget icon zoom. Meanwhile, I modded and cropped No Lock icons so that they fit perfectly with the widget

Really great app you done
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
oh, thanks for pointing that out, that's a mistake :D

I uploaded a corrected version of the instructions
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Yes, and when you follow instructions and uninstall, you get refunded on first uninstall :rolleyes:

Hopefully I liked this app and your support enough to buy it again :D
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Another small bug just noticed:

- I setup the widget with enable/disable Delayed Lock

- I setup different icons for enable app (lock disabled) and disable app (lock enabled)

- When you reboot phone, widget icon will always revert to the one set for "enable app", thus showing a disabled lock. However, of course, app is disabled and lock is active.

- When I tap the widget icon, it activates app, lock is disabled and icon won't change (as it is already set to lock disabled), so acting as expected

- After that, icon switches normally from one state to another, until next reboot, where it is back to lock disabled.

So, it is only the widget icon, but function is correct.

Hope you can fix it on a next release
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
thanks for reporting, it'll be fixed in the next version
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
I just tested the update 2.4.6.1

- widget icon not correctly displays status after reboot: FIXED

- Icon size zoom issue: FIXED

- White borders around icon: Fixed

So really, many many thanks for your prompt fix, definitely, worth the buy

However, there's still a small cosmetic issue on widget. The icon is now perfectly sized, with text or with blank text. However, when text is added, the text gets misaligned towards bottom like in pic below

On the left is icon with text zone blanked, on right, icon with the text "disabled"

For me, it is not important as I discard text and use custom on/off images. However, just wanted to report it to complete my feedback on this issue

Again, many thanks and I fully recommend your app, even if it was just for the great support :-)

Edit: If you could add custom locked/unlocked icons matching your app icon (green/red glow for locked/unlocked or what ever you like), the experience will be complete :-)

i'll see what i can do about these
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] khaytsus:
I've been having a real annoying problem recently with my phone.. Galaxy Note, 2.3.6, stock ROM (rooted). I use Delayed Lock + Widget Locker so I of course always see Widget Locker, and only 5 minutes after suspend I should see the pattern lock.

What happens in reality is a lot of times when I hit the power button to wake the phone, I'll see Widget Locker, then the pattern lock, then a second after unlocking the phone suspends. I hit power again, widget locker, pattern lock, second later it may or may not suspend again. Sometimes I just let it suspend, leave it alone for a few seconds, then wake it and unlock and it's fine, but when I'm trying to get into the phone to look up a date real fast or something this is really annoying.

Is this something Delayed Lock might be doing? If I disable it, I don't see this behavior, but then I always see the pattern lock every wake. :( And if I wake the phone in less than 5 minutes, this doesn't happen either. It's almost like Delayed Lock is force-locking the screen after the phone wakes up? And sometimes I'll be using the phone for 5-10 seconds and the pattern lock shows!

I've tried all sorts of combinations of things, but right now I have "Avoid locking delay" and "SimpleLock" enabled in Delayed Lock.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
please send me an email through the app's "report a problem" option, i can then send you a debug version with some logging information
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Well,

There are still some scaling issues in widget icon

Using a custom launcher, when I toggle the status bar on/off or drop notification menu, the widget icon changes size in an intermittent way (Apex Launcher)

From time to time, it gets minimized in a microscopic way. At that point, only solution is to reset widget setup

A fix is using, as before, the text with spaces instead of a blank text. That way, it will still change size temporarily during toggle of status bar or notifications menu drop down, but the microscopic icon reduction is fixed

In default TW launcher, after a while, the icon reduces in size also definitely, but not as microscopic as in Apex Launcher

Hope you can reproduce what I mean and fix it

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Hi,

I have one question: what's the purpose of the setting "Keep service running (don't stop the unlock service when enabling the lock screen)"

If my understanding is right, when disabled, it will make the shortcut lock/unlock acts as the widget enable/disable service!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] j4velin:
no it has nothing to do with the shortcuts or the widgets. if the app works like it should, there is no need to check that option. on some devices, the lock doesnt always get activated, therefore they need to check this setting
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jonny_ftm:
Thank you for clarifying it :-)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sonnysekhon:
Hi, I can't get it to work on AOKP (build 35) on my GSM Galaxy Nexus.

Inexplicably, it switches my unlock method from PIN to Slide.

I also have the external power and protect settings enabled.

Basically I want to keep my phone lock free if the home wifi is enabled and/or the phone is connected to a power source.

All was working as expected with CM9 but now it's really frustrating.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
