Security X10

Chello out there. I was just wondering. Is there a way of having the phone asking for a security code immediately after i turn it on instead of the simcard pincode? I want to turn off the simcard pincode but don't want my phone to be accessibel without any security.

Odd behavior

Okay, so I blew this off the first time it happened, but it has happened two more times.
I am rooted and unlocked still running stock. I turned my phone of and then when I turn it back on it get the LG splash and then it goes black. It's like it's hung. I have to hold the down button and power and I get a fastboot screen. Then I can hit power again and it boots normally.
Any ideas?

I have only rooted, unlocked, and applied the fast dormancy change.

How did you apply the fast dormancy fix? Command line? If so, revert back to original and then use the apk to fix the fast_dormancy.

I did use the command line. I will revert and try the apk. Out of curiosity what difference does it make?

Hi. I want to not allow anyone from being able to turn off my phone, put it in airplane mode, or change the ringer settings because if someone turns it off, then Cerberus won't be able to track it. My phone is rooted (I know, I'm a badass) so if there is any tweak or any options that I could change, that would be great! Thanks in advance.

Sadly there's no way to prevent anyone from pulling the battery...
They can just pull the battery you're SOL.

This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Clear your data for the lockscreen app. That will fix it.
