Has anyone written an app that will keep my HTC Titan X310e from locking unless I specifically tell it to? I don't leave my phone laying around anywhere that it can be hijacked. I just get tired of the thing screen blanking and then locking while I am using it for music, podcasts, etc.. BTW: I'm running the Deepshining ROM.
Thanks!

I don't have a "never" option. I only have 30s, and 1,3, and 5 minutes. That may be a limitation in the Deepshining ROM then. I'll post over there is that's the case.
In registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Lock]
"DisableNever"=dword:0

Hi there
Have just noticed that lights on bottom of Hero don't light up!
Is this right?
Only just noticed this as its the first time i have had the phone in the dark!
Mine is a Hero G2 on T-Mobile(UK).
Is there a setting to get em back working?
All i have done to phone is load various apps/games via android market and changed home screen via beautiful widget etc.
Anyone know what to do?
Many thanks for all help given....
Apperently i cant post links, so i will try to send you a link in PM instead.
Otherwise, search google for htc hero backlight buttons
it seems that you are not the onlyone with this problem, seems like a replece or service is the only way.

I am sure your Hero runs the 1.76* build... it had that kind of bug you mentioned... and alot of other nasties too... for example the headphone jack problem... and LEDs not lighting up... not to mention the lag...
Menu > Settings > About phone and scroll down until you see "Build number"...

Hi, did you find fix for your Hero Mobile?
Hi all
the Tosh' TG01 has a lock button on the side (the power button) and doesn't need the slide-to-unlock-because-we're-pretending-to-be-an-iphone screen that means you effectively have to unlock the device twice every time you want to get to a text/call
How do you disable this?
I know you can because before I re-installed 6.5 (don't ask, Toshiba advertised an upgrade that wasn't) I had disabled this with advice that I thought I got from here, but now I can find no info on this here or on google.
so, how do you disable this annoying 'second' lock again?
help me xda-knobi, you're my only hope...

Here's my (simple) advice, but think twice because of possible unwanted commands on your tg01 while in pocket and getting an in-call or sms:
Go to windows/startup and delete autokeylock, soft-reset: here you go, no more slide lock...
Thanks great post and advice it was getting annoying!

Unwanted commands? that sounds ominous - I don't think this was the original method I used, but thanks!

See my edited above post, I suppose I made myself more clear...
Ah I see -
fortunately I am in the habit of locking the phone before putting it away, although I would rather not lose the auto-lock in call mode, or my cheek will be pushing buttons...
I you still want the phone to lock in calls, just use s2u2, and just set it not to lock in general, but to use s2a, and it'll lock during calls only...(by lock, i mean the one thing that'll actually respond to touch will be the hold/ignore slider...which is quite small anway)

Thanks, I'll try that. Although it annoys me that I know there is a method that doesn't need extra apps because I used it before...
would something in the registry disable this?

disable slide-lock screen:
Reg-key: HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/LockScreen/Enable=0

That actually did the opposite of what I wanted, all that does is replace the slide-to-unlock with a very hard to see old style winmo unlock that made me think my phone was broken!
I'm trying to remove all "soft" locks so that I just push the power button to lock/unlock.

Well, so simple and so good. I was always wondering why lock/unlock software ( with sliders ) on WM6.5 eats irreversible almost 5MB of memory after first action. It never appears on WM6.1 where lock/unlock does not eat almost any RAM.
It turned out this switch enables old fashion ( WM 6.1 like ) lock/unlock .
Now I have additional 5MB of RAM and lock feature still active.
Thanks mirolg !

Done a search and can't find a solution...
With the 'easy to press' buttons on the HD2 the phone screen keeps powering on in my pocket (I use phone lock to stop auto dialling).
This is draining the battery...
Any way to stop this happening? Say, have just the power button only turn on the screen, after a long press for example???

Try settings / system / keylock settings. There are options to set the buttons as non responsive except for the power button.

I have this same issue and I've got a stock 3.14 tmobile rom but when I go to settings / system /, there is no options for keylock settings. is that on a custom rom?
+1 for this
From new my phone used to have the option of locking all buttons except the power key ... until I did my first hard reset, then it vanished! I would have thought the settings app would have been in the ROM, so restored after the hard reset, but obviously not.
Anyone have a cab for it or care to extract it from their HD2?
<quote>Try settings / system / keylock settings. There are options to set the buttons as non responsive except for the power button.</quote>
Nope, no such option on my HD2...
Seems we need 'keylock.exe'
Anyone got it and know if it will work in an HD2?
Ok, at least I know I'm not unique now...
i've installed Hd2ProximityScreenOff-0.2.cab which I guess turns the screen back off quickly if an "in-pocket" button press brings the screen to life. (can't confirm what happens in my pocket, but seems to do the trick in my hand)
but I'd really like to know if someone knows how to get to this keylock setting

Take a look at my signature. I'm using NRG ROM, which I highly recommend.

ahh crap, noob mistake. sorry.
any chance you can dig up where "settings / system / keylock settings" points?
maybe it points to something already in the stock rom?

i can install the stock rom update right from tmo, and install cabs and crap, but not yet ready to make the leap to customer roms (or android for that matter)
try pocketshield software. it has feature that turns your screen immediately off if its in pocket etc with proximity sensor, also its great and cool.
is there any way to make my HD2 take longer to lock...i also have s2u2...and i can't find anything there to change that or in the settings on the phone...cause it locks in like 7 seconds...i would like at least 30 seconds before my phone automatically locks...please help...this is soooooo annoying...thanks in advance...

apparently you installed S2U2 without modifying it's settings..
go to start menu>S2U2> S2U2 settings
you can change those settings in the power menu.
also go to advanced and add Camera to the exceptional exe list. it's found in the windows directory. this is to avoid locking when you're capturing video.
this is making me feel like a total loooooser, but I can't find the setting to remove the 3D homescreen "effect." -- I'm running LGS 1.6 and don't remember the setting being so difficult to find when I turned the damn thing on, but now I think its screwing with my screen...
Mostly visible on the homescreen, but never in an running app, are a bunch of static lines that have gone away in the past with a reboot, but are getting worse and worse now...any ideas or is anybody else experiencing this on this ROM?
Thanks
menu > settings > display?
You might also try a fresh flash. Sometimes android just plays better after it's cleaned up.
