Is there any way to unlock the phone using bluetooth keyboard or mouse? I mean, every time i plug the phone on multimedia dock i've got to unlock it using fingerprint or sliding the lock widget and enter my code... is it possible to do this unlock procedure been remotely?
You can try widget locker from the market if ur rooted. Has an option to unlock via back button so escape should work. Hope it helps

Hi, thanks for the reply... but is there any free solution for that?
I have exchange policies through company email, which are quite strict. I am happy with that. Only problem I have now, is that I have to put in the PIN to unlock every time my screen wakes up. Formerly in WM6.5 (HD2) I could unlock only with swipe in the first 30minutes, and after 30minutes of inactivity, I had to provide the pin.
Can I do this now as well ? Is there a difference on the S II between unlock screen and PIN unlock ? In the settings I cannot find this option; are there solutions for that (other lockscreen apps e.g.) who do accept that ?
Hi,
I would suggest you download the manual for the phone.
in the mean time:-
Go to settings/location and security/change screen lock
there you can disable screen lock, set a pattern for unlock, set a pin or password.
Then go to settings/display/screen time out and change the time it takes to lock
Hope this helps
Txs, I see now that also exchange policy has greyed out the pattern option. So I cannot disable the pin unlock and cannot put in pattern ... Unfortunately so ...
oh coroparate phones eh?

I use touchdown for exchange app, and the pin is needed only for the app not the phone.

This is what I am using on my Captivate to overcome the same issue, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848564, I know we are not on the same phone but I am pretty sure the "fix" can be done on the email.apk for your phone.
Basically you need to tell the native email app to tell Exchange that it is using a PIN when in actuality it is not. If it is too complicated for you to do yourself, Fenny is pretty cool about doing it for you, just send him a copy of the email.apk you are using.
Looks like there is already an email.apk for you found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13413332&postcount=1533
If i am using the original ROM on Galaxy S2 for United Kingdom, would this email.apk still work or do i need an updated file ? What are the chances of administrator finding it out ?
I'm looking for a pinlock replacement which would unlock the phone without the need of tapping "OK" key. Here on my android, i have to tap OK after entering the pin which annoys me a lot...
bumping...
Coming from having an ipod to an android this would be very useful!!
Anybody?
no one? wow i'm amazed...you guys actually hit OK every time you enter pin?
You go to apps/games section, you'll find all kind of bull but nothing like this?
Any luck? I'm looking for same thing
Hello dear XDA community, i'm mostly active on the HTC part, for HTC Sensation.
A friend have a SGS2 with a security code on the lockscreen, she can't even remember and she's stuck on it.
The main goal is to unlock this if possible or to be able to keep most of the data (surely on SD Card?) and resetting it.
I'm not a professional about Samsung phone, that's why i ask you this What would you do in this situation ?
Thanks for all bros!
If you have Samsung account you can connect to dive (Turn on you screen on) and unlock

Hi All,
I was wondering if someone could confirm what apps you can run while the phone is still password locked. someone confirmed it is possible to operate the camera. But I am hoping it is also possible to at least do some forms of quick note taking, possibly audio notes as well. Can these be added and operated from lock screen at all (create only, password to access existing etc.) ?
Work enforces a password lock policy and I find that often, I find the delay in having to unlock etc. just too inconvenient...
Thanks,
Zuber

I can't be the only one that locks the phone with a password or pattern surely ?
