E65- locking the keypad?

[Zarkuna]

Does anyone know if it's possible to lock the keypad on the E65 without opening and closing the slide? I've looked through the instructions and couldn't spot anything, so any help appreciated. It would be a handy shortcut!

push power button once

What about just using AutoLock? I use it on my N80 and it works great.

Thanks both- I'd forgotten about the power button!

Anyway to prevent the 'Lock Phone' question when closing the phone? Hitting no everytime i close the phone gets annoying.

Thanks

Leave it be. The msg shd go away after 3-4 secs.

Abhi, that works when you don't want to use your phone afterwards.

But when your browsing or using some app and just need to enter in some quick text, you have to constantly hit yes/no when closing the keypad.

Is there any way to have it automatically answer "yes" when the 'Lock Phone' question disappears? Ideally, the question should pop up, and if there's no response from the user after a few seconds, "yes" should be automatically selected. If the user pressed "no" then the keypad would stay unlocked.

Or does the AutoLock program accomplish that exact same thing?

There is a default, but it's "No", and you can't change it.

AutoLock doesn't interfere with the pop up. It just allows you to specify the number of seconds you want your phone to wait after which it locks automatically.

great and how do we get to this default?

The "No" default is set by the factory, and it's not changeable by users.

i saw this program handy keylock and it says on their page

"For slider phones (like Nokia N80): Smartphone keys will be locked automatically at slider closing (without confirmation message). "

I finally found a solution!!!

This app "Smartphoneware Bestkeylocker" can autolock the keypad when you close the slide without prompting you every time you close the slider. You can set it to never lock the keypad, so you won't get that annoying message every time you close the slider.

This is app works perfectly with the e65.


Features and settings:

Custom lock timeout.
Custom sound notification on lock/unlock actions.
Custom hot-key for lock/unlock operations.
Rule to lock or don't lock if charger connected.
Rule to lock only in idle screen.
Rule to lock in different profiles.
Rule to lock in different applications.
Don't lock phone during a phone call.
Autolock on slider - autmatic keypad locking and unlocking for slider based phones.
Hint: When you use the option "Don't lock in applications" and add certain application, e.g. Messaging, Best Keylocker will not lock the keypad in that application, but when ScreenSaver appears, the keypad will be locked autamaticaly. To prevent this situation you could also add ScreenSaver to "don't lock application" list.
Note: If you add ScreenSaver to "Don't lock in applications" list, make sure your lock timeout is less than screensaver timeout, otherwise it won't lock either after screensaver is activated from idle screen or any other application, which is not in "Don't lock in applications" list
