[Q] How to disable lock screen? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
How do I remove/disable lock screen on GB 2.3.5?
On Atrix 4G there is a database entry that we could use, but it's strictly for motorola phones, now I'm using LG Nitro HD and can't find anything related.
Thank you.
P.S.
posting this question here, because we don't have many developers at Nitro's section..yet.

That app and so far all other of same type enables wake on volume keys - it's not acceptable.
I'd rather do it manually if I can.
Any more suggestions?
Thanks.

Well, I don't know more apps that disables lockscreen, I have Jkay app on SGS2 and in menu I can disable lockscreen, so maybe you use search and maybe find if your phone is supported by JKay.

CM6: Some questions

Hi,
I am currently using CM6 official night build for Hero and I got some questions, if someone's kind enough to answer it
* Why is JIT not enabled by default ? I thought Android 2.2 had JIT stable, why is it not the case in CM6 night build ?
* Will there be a way to {over|under}clock directly in the kernel like the last 2.1 roms are doing, not by using the overclock widget that register on hooks and is much slower to switch frequencies ?
* ADW.Launcher is the default home, why isn't it linked to the market, like the GMap app is (it can be updated but not removed) ? We can install the market ADW.Launcher app but it is not the same app (the settings menu is not at the same place and the previous settings menu still appears in the phone's settings).
* In the Rom Manager app, it is said that I should install the ClockworkMod recovery to use the app. What is it ? Is it as crazy as Kubrick ? Seriously, I am currently using RA-hero-v1.6.2, what is this ClockworkMod, is it better ? Should I install it ?
* I saw that there was a way to skin CM5, changing, for example the color and image of the notification bar, Skins were installable directly with a barcode. Is there such a way in CM6 ?
I hope these are not (too) noob questions, thank you for answering anyway
Seriously, you used the word yourself. You really think development is the area for questions? Next time post in the Q&A section, the hint is in the name... (reported)

Appologies, I didn't pay attention, my bad.
Could a mod move it to the right forum ?
Thread moved to Q&A.
Up ?
Nobody to answer those questions ?
I would suggest posting on their forums as the devs probably don't regularly check XDA.

Volume keys change ringtone volume

Hi all,
based on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1865752
I'd like to ask, if somebody could create a MOD for this problem.
On the screenshot of the IPhone in this thread, you can see that Apple has already added such a function.
It's a pitty that Android doesn't have it!
Can somebody help? It's really annoying, that one can change a ringtone loudness with one click only
Thanks a lot.
Tim

I use "Volume locker" - works perfekt. A popup appears, after 5s (i select) the volume change will be delete - if i don't confirm.

Hi tjjensen23,
thanks for your answer - I tried this app, but I can't change into mute mode with this app

Hi,
I think the actions of the loudness buttons will be controlled through the classes.dex in android.policy.jar.
But what the right entry for changing the buttons from ringtone to music?.

Hi,
I found this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21362669&postcount=2

Disable Capacitive buttons

Anyone find a way to disable the buttons yet? I found two downloads a few weeks ago, but foolishly deleted them. So now I have LQS2.8 running with them disabled, but can't upgrade to another rom.

This links DL's do not work, it disabled my power button.

I have seen this ability in Hyper rom, Jelly Beans, and Clean rom. In hyper rom It's under system settings -> my device -> display -> touch key light duration (under more settings section) -> and finally select "always off"
If this is helpful please say thanks! :good:

Are you running a Galaxy S2?
If so, this is not the right thread.
If not, take a look inside some of the original android dev section of the forum and check out some of the ROMs in there. Most or all that I have seen allow you to reprogram or turn off them pesky buttons and use the on screen navbar...
Do a little research, you might be impressed with your effort...
Or you can always Google it on Bing...!
This is a modified sec_touchkey.kl file. This will disable the back and menu capacitive buttons, while not changing the behavior of the home button. Push this file to /system/usr/keylayout.
If you want to use the on-screen softkeys, add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to the end of your build.prop file located in /system.

Wakelock problems
Hi everyone! I am using CandyKat Rom. Does anybody "suffer" that when you press the screen turn on button ( I forgot what's its name) it does not turn on. Can anybody suggest what to do? It's the best rom, but I this irritates me. Thanks everyone. ????

Wake lock
2 possible fixes.....
First you could disable HD overlays, I know that works
The other possibility could be Pollution patch. I have never used it as I haven't had the need. But I know many swear it will cure everything but cancer. The patch I believe is more of a Kit Kat cure all, not necessarily specific to Kandy Kat.
To the OP, due to the lack of development with our beloved but aging device, not sure it is necessary to create a Q&A here for the rom. Sorry, but I don't exactly believe that the thread is blowing up over there.

I have no idea what or who Q&A bot is, I try to look up profile and it says "invalid".
If it is a rom specific question it is fine to post there. If it is a device specific question, I would take it here. There is not so much development going on here that the thread are blowing up.
If Mr.Bot was upset about my response, he would have surely had something to say.

if u are having wakelock issues..the two possible fixes are as follows
1) set governor to wheatley.
2) check out my thread about an xposed module that helps with kernel panic related to system. Link
The issue the above member is referring to with hw disabling is the screen flicker...and yes. Disabling hw overlay will solve that issue,as will pollutions aroma patch or a simple build prop edit.
I use both the above fixes ( 1&2 ) and wakelocks are a thing of the past for me. As for the screen flicker. Most devs bake the build prop edits in now.
I'm not a dev, i'm just a flash junkie. if i knew what i was doing i would attempt to build it myself, but is it possible that the fast charge feature of the diablo kernel from the hellybean rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457323 could be built into the uber kernel? am i posting in the right place? sorry if i'm not. i love this rom and have no bugs so far but battery life/charging time suck. thanks to those who put time and effort into doing something that makes me feel like an idiot. thanks in advance.
Hi ,, apparently I cannot flash anything yet.
I have Gingerbread with TWRP installed. I have tried a couple of roms but they fail.
Any ideas?

Hi there. You cannot flash kitkat roms in gingerbread. You should have the jellybean, you can do that by using kies. Note that you should also have cwm 6.0.4.3 and up to flash kitkat roms: )

Carried over from the Dev Thread.
Recently flashed this ROM on my Note. Very much enjoy it.
I have flashed the camera fix, stopped my cam from FC'ing. The camera takes great pictures. The recording delay while annoying is something I can live with, however.. It doesn't record anything. Acts like its recording, and such, but doesn't seem to write anything anywhere.
Any ideas?
Just installed CandyKat-quincyatt-4.4.4.release.v1.6.0-Official-20140922 on my note, but now the hard navigation buttons on my device do not work at all, and there is an extra navigation bar on the screen with the same functions as the existing buttons on the device. I found in the candykat options a checkbox to turn off the software navigation bar, but when I do this I still do not have any functionality with the real navigation buttons on my note.. How do I enable the real nav buttons?

ok.. more problems with nav bar: I tried to turn off the navigation bar in the candy interface options and reset the device to see if it would re-enable the hardware buttons, but now I cannot use the hardware buttons and trying to reenable the on-screen navigation bar does nothing. Clicking the checkbox for navigation bar and nothing shows up on screen. Also, in the same candy interface > navigation bar menu options, if I click the "Show landscape" checkbox it crashes the process com.android.systemui 100% of the time.
EDIT #3:
So I was going to try and manually edit the build.prop file to see if I can reenable my hardware keys, only to discover that this ROM does not support USB file transfer. The device charges fine when connected to USB, but does not even appear in device manager on my computer.. changing usb ports does nothing, enable/disable usb debugging on device does nothing.. also the device randomly freezes, shows a pinky-orange screen and reboots when going into the settings menu. This ROM is too broken, I don't know how anybody is using this. I'm going to have to switch to something more stable with working USB and options.

Will there be android L in this Rom ? I
