Hi everyone, is there a way to trigger native lockscreen by soft? By example with tasker. Exist a direct access to lt? Thanks anyway.
Short press the power button?

hi, thanks for the reply, but i need to do by soft.
What i really need is to solve a problem that i have with my headset bluetooth.
My x10 is in my pocket, a call get in, i pick up from my headset bluetooth, i hang up and the screen dont go off and then activate anything.
With tasker i do that when i hang up launch an application, (im using right know GoTo lockscreen that activate but a link) but cost my a lot of battery and i dont want to use anymore. for that im looking the way by soft to start lockscreen or switch screen off by soft, is the same.
Thanks
yeah mine does that aswell its not just the bluetooth, even on the native handfree kit it leaves the screen on. the best way to do this is to put hand in pocket then press power button
well i found a way to solve this, with tasker, there are a trigger that works when a call is finish. but tasker run an application when a call is ended and this is what i searching, the application that launch the native lockscreen.

Please tell me you can! Give me a dream! Show me some hopes.
(i am about to break my x10 in half for 1-2 more lock screen freeze on calls)
Have you tried MyLock from the app market?
There's an app called "No lock" That disables the initial swipe lock, but if enabled it unfortunately also disables the security swipe codes too.
how do you use MyLock
I found it useless
+1 for nolock
no lock is ****e. it doesnt properly lock and unlock the screen. more like a black screensaver.
what is needed is a way to unlock using KEYS, something like in the keyboard mapping trick

I've had "goto" for a few days and it's great.
Lots of options from lock screens; shortcut to email, call logs, messages, etc.
Sometimes it goes to x10 default swipe screen but goto screen will kick in almost immediately. You'll see what I mean.
You'll be glad you tried it out
I hate the lockscreen slider
When I press "on" I want my phone "on"
And answering calls with the finger slide is a pain in the ass
I thought I would get used to it, but NO
NoLock didn't solve the problem because you still have to slide to answer, and yes your phone goes to homescreen when pressing the ON button, but also when pressing ANY button (including the volume keys which get pressed easily inside my pocket), finally NoLock screws up the notification bar slider
There MUST be a way to answer calls by just pressing an icon or button, without having to slide the finger
There MUST be a way to just press the f*ck!ng ON key and start using the phone
.
If only we can remove that bloody lockscreen...

My experience with touchscreen phones is this is a completely silly idea.
Think of all the time the button would get accidentally pressed in your pocket, and the battery life loss while on in your pocket.
I don't know how it works on Windows Mobile, but one would think this would be an even worse problem due to how prolific resistive touchscreens are on WM.

The problem i found with goto is that to answer calls you still have to swype, and when trying to turn off an alarm clock at 7 in the morning its really uncomfortable to use. Other than that its pretty awesome.
there should be a way to do this, perhaps tinkering with framework-res.apk could do the trick (either enable double click to unlock like in hero, or just simplify the swype movement)
(ive asked about this before)
im just discovering android and x10.
if get desperate enough i'll try to simply replace the relevant files from stock 1.6 firmware ... im gonna reflash anyway for 026 or 2.1
worst thing is this lockscreen during call - many times i dont even se WHO is calling.

I disabled the menu button switching on the phone by editing the file in system/user/keylayout, now only the power button switches it on.
To get rid of the lockscreen would be really useful to me now I've done that...
Sent from my one-click-rooted X10i using XDA App
i wonder if messing with the framework can do it,
what i really noticed is how GOTO Lockscreen are able to replace the original one 99% of the time while other app like lockbot - which i adorably like - can't do this and instead show two lockscreens over each other
mylock and nolock are of NO USE they are both useless
No app i found can replace the swipe call , and only GOTO can fully replace the standby lockscreen,
i triend most of the lock screens out there but with no use..
btw, Widgetlocker is for 2.1+ right ??
Ive tried to use tasker to do this, so far it can react headphone plugged in and unlock the screen automatically (sometimes: /)
I ve tried to test if camera button can be detected during call and then unlock the phone - didnt work - event which supposed to fire on call is not activating.
Also camera button is ignored on locked screen.
By editing the keymap with the FOCUS key the phone wakes up but tasker doesnt handle this key. Perhaps it is possible to write the plugin....
Ah if only we could compile custom kernel.. every problem can be solved when you can cook on your own...

Ah, I see.
Still, to me, it seems useful to have that extra layer of security protecting my battery life. Never know how many times that power button will get accidentally pressed in your pocket!

Hi twentybenson, so could you explain how you edited the file, which file (i have three) and changes you made?
hi, i accidentally use a build in screen capture in my vibrant with froyo.
i couldn't replicate it with any combination i tried.
i read about holding the back button and then pressing menu or home but that didn't do anything.
how do i use it?
(please dong offer third party applications as they all suck...)
I don't think anybody knows how to. It seems like everybody encounters it accidentally. Haven't seen anybody replicate that screen capture option either.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
lol, this is just ridicules...
how can they put a feature that is so hidden that no one in this forum, knows how to activate it.
They put it in there for use, then removed it later because on a vibrant you annoy press both home and back buttons at the same time.
The way you did it is your system lagged then you pressed those 2 buttons and bam
is there a way to do it again then?
Either by ROM, App, or Rooting/Otherwise, is there a way to make the lock button have multiple functions on my Galaxy Nexus?
My goal is to be able to use Voice Actions from a locked phone (like in the car, for example).
I noticed some posts on editing hardware buttons, but that was neither for the Galaxy Nexus nor for a lock button.
Ideally, 2 quick clicks would pull up Voice Actions from a locked phone.
I guess if I could permanently have Voice Actions in the notifications section, I could drag down from a locked phone and accomplish the same thing. I use slide to unlock, so dragging down on notifications bar is still available.
Any suggestions? I have not rooted yet but would do so just for this functionality (I'm now a corporate tool so I try to hack as little as possible these days)...
I am really interested in getting this functionality, so please excuse my bump.
Here are the two solutions (possibly) I've found.
1. Bar Control would allow this functionality if we could choose the Voice Actions App.
2. Widget Locker (though I've seen review of it not working well on Galaxy Nex, any opinions there). Also, still need an actual app to choose.
Again, I'm reaching out to Android users to see if they've found any way of using the lock button to achieve this functionality, but I'd take anything right about now.
Voice Actions Automate Startup like Siri
Okay, apparently I will be using this thread to document how I get this working.
Looks like Tasker will be my best bet.
1. I need to figure out how to call up the true Voice Actions prompt (Voice input is provided via Tasker, but it's not doing what we need it to).
2. I need to come up with some valid gesture to summon this feature (Like a Shake = Unlock and then summons Voice Actions)
I will post results. Please, if anyone knows exactly how to get Voice Actions to open in ICS using Tasker, you'd be a godsend at this point. This is VERY important functionality, especially for users that are not to be using their phone and driving these days...
This is (a quick and dirty) way to get Voice Search (Voice Actions) from Lock Screen on the Galaxy Nexus.
I purchased WidgetLocker from Market. I then added the Google Search Widget to my lockscreen.
In the future, I'd like to see Tasker have access to the lock button - that way I could Long Press the Lock button (or double press, whatever) and have access to Voice Search.
If you want different Voice Search functionality, such as widgets, or using Bar Control to add it permanently to the notifications area, you'll need to have Root Access to your phone.
Use Root Explorer to go to /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk
Rename to VoiceSearch.apk.backup
Go to Market and Download Google's Voice Search
Add Shortcuts, icons to your homescreen, whatever you want to do
Rename VoiceSearch.apk.backup back to VoiceSearch.apk
Reboot
This is the only way I've found to get VoiceSearch as an app choice again in menus like Tasker's, WidgetLocker, BarControl, etc. For some reason, it's no longer accessible by default in ICS.
This is by far not the cheapest or most integrated way of getting things done, but for $3.00 it was worth it for me.
Hope this helps all the GN owners out there
Integrating Tasker into this
Once WidgetLocker was purchased, I am able to use WidgetLocker to Unlock my phone through Tasker.
Used the above mentioned way of getting VoiceSearch available as an app via Tasker.
Used WidgetLocker's plugin for Tasker to unlock my phone when I shake it along with starting up Voice Search.
So now, in my car, I just one click my GN Lock button to wake phone, shake, speak...that's as good as it's gonna get for awhile.
Hope this helps
Simple solution - Eva for Android
I've had the trial version of EVA for a month. When it expires, I'm purchasing the full version. This is hands down the most advanced and exciting app for Android since Tasker. It is for Voice Control what Tasker was/is for utility control.
You can set Eva to continue running when your phone is locked and use a voice command to "wake her up" and give a command. Also even if my phone is locked, if I get a text message Eva will let me know I have an incoming message and ask me if I want to hear it (all while the screen is still off and phone still locked). If I reply yes, Eva will read the message to me, then ask if I want to reply. If I say no, that's the end and my screen is still off, phone still locked. If I say yes, Eva will unlock my phone automatically and open up the Eva app to take my dictation for the reply.
All of the above is based on my settings, but Eva can be programmed to handle incoming text several different ways. Eva really is the "tasker" of voice commands. I'd highly recommend at least checking out the free trial for a month. Like Tasker, there is a learning curve. Took me about the full month to learn all the command words, but once you do, it's amazing.
Also to make it even better, the developer does have tasker integration on his to do list. It may take a while, but if it can be integrated with tasker, then you could trigger any task you have created in tasker by voice which would be super sweet!
Anyway, check it out - hopefully it'll allow you to do everything you want.
anthdroid, thank you so much for sharing. i'm lucky to have found this thread. your workaround let me get my voice search action back. cheers!
hollywoodfrodo, thanks for the info on Eva. that sounds promising for sure! i just "discovered" tasker recently so i'm loving that. can't wait till my tec tiles come in!
Hey guys! I recently purchased my galaxy from Telus and I must say it's a lovely device. Just a few cons for me is that it's a bit big and the volume rocker button is pretty loose. Other than that everything is just perfect
I just have a few questions if people could take their spare time to help out
1) How do you disable data usage? I tried pulling down the notification bar but there is no data off/on switch, only wifi.
2) If say I have data and wifi simultaneity on, what will exactly happen? Will wifi take over and automatically shut off the data?
3) Is there a way to automatically stop the use of data by having a restriction set up so for example once I hit 980mb, I won't be able to use the data unless I override and make it possible to continue using it. (Is watchdog a perfect app for this?)
4) The wifi/data icon on the status bar, what does the orange arrow going down mean and the other arrow facing up? The arrow facing downwards for my wifi keeps blinking orange/hang and goes back to grey. (Does it mean there something downloading in the background?)
5) What are some ways to improve the battery life of the phone?
6) Is there a way to remove "ME" on the contact list?
7) When I charge the phone through my laptop, it doesn't heat up but through the wall, the charging brick is rather hot. Is this safe?
8) To open the back cover, do you just put your nail/finger tip through the back hole and just use brute force to rip it off or is there something else? I feel like I'm gonna break the cover or the little edge/dimples on the sides of the cover where it fits into the back :l
9) Is there any way to change the brightness through maybe the status bar (moving fingers from right to left increases brightness and vise versa for left to right?) or maybe through notification bar?
10) Also should I have the sync icon on at all times in the notification bar?
11) Also is samsung kies needed? Whats the benefit of having it?
12) Is Samsung Kies needed?
13) I really appreciate the help guys, and last not but least, what are some useful/"needed/essential" apps to help or make life easier for the phone?
This is my first smartphone as I've been using my old lg chocolate for some time now and it just incredible how diverse the android os is but at the same time confusing and stressful to add what and such. I have so many things I want to do with the phone atm but stressful to figure out what to do in order lol.
I'm planning on rooting the phone after I save the contacts to my google.
Thanks everyone!
A quick note, I would take your phone back to the store and get it replaced, your volume rocker should not be lose. I took mine back for the same reason and my new one is fine.
Sorry I didn't answer anything else but I can't see your post on the app, I will later on my laptop.

1. Go to Settings > Data Usage > Mobile Data switch should be at the top
2. Wifi takes priority as long as you are within range and connected to a wifi network. If you leave wifi on but there are no networks it will just default to Mobile Data.
3. Again under Settings > Data Usage > Check the "Set mobile data limit" box
4.Yeah when you are downloading or uploading packets of data the corresponding arrows lightup
5. Turn down brightness, data, gps, bluetooth when not in use
6. You can press and hold contact names to bring up a menu and delete that contact. I'm not sure whether it works on yourself I haven't tried it.
7. Should be fine
8. Yeah just pull back gently the cover shouldn't break
9. Custom roms may implement brightness toggles in the notification bar. search around there are probably apps/widgets that can do the same thing as well.
10. Only if you want to sync data. For example if its off but you keep mobile data on, widgets such as weather and facebook won't update until you do it manually, but you can still use the internet normally. This will save some battery life.
11. Are you on a Mac or PC? On a PC you probably don't need it. On a Mac by default your computer won't detect it so using Kies is probably the easiest way to transfer files.
12. See above.
13. If you plan on rooting your phone there are a lot of useful apps such as titanium backup, wifi tether, etc. You can do a lot of customization of the homescreen if you don't like the way it looks check out other "launchers" on the google play store such as Apex launcher or Go launcher. Also there are ton of different keyboard replacements if you don't like the stock keyboard. Popular ones inclue swiftkey and swype. Just go explore
Oh and don't forget the XDA App (Duh)

Thank you so much i'll have to check out the custom roms or the widgets for brightness and I'm not sure if the loose volume button is bad enough that later on it'll popout or something. One thing I notice about it is that if i lay my thumb on it, i can move it from side to side (towards the face and down) and because the button isn't separated into a + -, there seems to be a click sound even though i click the middle of the button. Last note is if I gently tap the volume button you'll hear a light click sound cause it's loose. I just want to make sure if anyone else has this problem or is theres really stiff? The power button and homebutton stay in place but the volume just feels weird , not to mention if you shake the phone you can hear that something is loose (the volume button)
EDIT: I forgot to add two other questions that someone could clarify:
1) I've read other threads about this too but I seem to be only getting one bar of wifi, and it's pretty slow for some reason. But when I go on 4g/lte it's amazingly fast - only problem is I won't be using the data network much. Any fix to this wifi issue? I've done the *#0011# and doesn't help at all.
2) Every time I enter the gallery it seems to detect all my pc connected to my wifi. Any to way to stop this? Because I use to be able to delete photos but now I can' because a computer icon replaced the delete button. Same goes for the music player, on the top left cornor theres a computer icon and if you click on it, it'll show change player

1. Depends how far you are from the router and how many walls are in your way. It could also be from interference from a neighbor's router. I would recommend downloading the app Wifi Analyzer. It will tell you which channel your router is on vs. all the other routers around you, and it will tell you the best channel to use (look for the screen with the star ratings) for your router.
2. I haven't used the gallery much, and I use Google Music instead of the stock player. I'll look into the gallery thing, though. Update: OK. So, when you press the Menu button on the main Gallery page, one of the options is to scan for nearby devices. You probably selected it to see what it did, and this is probably why it's showing all the other devices in your house. Wierd thing is, there is no way to disable it. The Gallery app doesn't seem to have a settings menu. What you can try is pressing menu, then View By, then selecting "Content in device". That should show only the things on the phone.
Also, if my volume buttons were making a rattling noise when I shook the phone, I would take the phone back for a replacement, especially if it bothered me. My volume buttons are solid.

Thanks for the help! I wen't back to exchange my phone but it seems all the other phones for display and the ones i exchanged had the same shaky/loose volume. Guess i'll just have to stick with it.
Is there any easy way to disable having to input my lock screen pattern for when I'm driving?
I use my phone for music but I never have it docked, so I don't want the screen permanently on. It's just dangerous to have to do my pattern unlock whilst I'm driving. I'm using InDrive app to control PowerAmp but I want to be able to go straight to that by just pressing the awake button on my S3.
So is there anything that will easily allow me to disable this but won't stop the screen going off? Ideally a widget I can place on my home screen.

Well.. I never came across a widget or app like that but there is an option in my rom to disable lock screen. I think there will be an option on your device as well. Just turn it on and off whenever you need.

Cheers. If I go through the menu settings then I can disable lockscreen. It's a bit of a pain to do this every time I get in and out of the car though.
I just assumed this would be a common problem for people using their phone to play music in the car. Seems like it might not be!

Well yeah.. But you got few ops. Disable and enable from settings (lockscreen settings on my phone), or you can make a playlist of your music which will save you from touching your device while driving. Or you can copy your music to a usb drive and plug it to your car's audio system.. Or the most complicated but the most useful thing you can do us try making an app or a script will do the job of enabling/disabling the lockscreen everytime you run it. Well.. Thats something for devs and can be really complicated.. But worth trying..
If you're rooted you can install the xposed framework and per app DPI module, then set specific apps to show over the lock screen such as poweramp so its fully use able while the phone is locked
