S2U2 v0.83


Description:
S2U2 is a simple lock/unlock application which has the iPhone style slide unlocking. It can be used as a screensaver while you don't use your device. And it's has a CallerID function.

Installation:
- If you have Slide2Unlock installed, please uninstall it first & then soft-reset.

- After installation, there are 3 shortcuts created under \Program Files\S2U2:
iLock2.lnk - start/stop ilock2.exe (on the 1st run, it runs silently in the background; on the 2nd run, it closes iLock2 & S2U2)
s2u2.lnk - manually start S2U2 (be sure iLock2 is running in the background, otherwise the Battery status will not be updated).
s2u2 Settings.lnk - change the settings of S2U2.

- A shortcut for iLock2.exe is created automatically under "\Windows\StartUp" as well.

- Installation on Storage Card is not supported (for the sake of stability).

- There are 2 clock font files for selection - clock.zip (default) & clockH.zip. How to use?
1. stop iLock2
2. delete those files under \GFX\Clock (under the installed folder)
3. copy the extracted files to \GFX\Clock
4. start iLock2

- For hi-res devices, please extract files (follow the above steps) from either vclock.zip or vclockH.zip & copy them to \GFX\Clock under the installed path. Otherwise the clock will be shown as half-sized.
- For non-English devices, d/l the S2U2LanguagePack.rar; extract your language's ini file; rename it to lang.ini; copy to the S2U2 installed folder; restart iLock2 Configuration: (in the Registry under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2. Please remember to RESTART iLock2 after any registry settings changed, otherwise it won't work): - use the "s2u2 Settings.exe" to change the settings.

- Through the lang.ini, the 3 default selections of DateFormat & TimeFormat can be customised. They are s_DefaultDateFormat1~3 & s_DefaultTimeFormat1~3.

- For advanced users, you can edit the registry directly. The default values are added on the first run of iLock2:
ACBlankScreen=0
ACBlankOnTalk=0
ACIdleStart=0
ACOffLCD=0
AppointmentTimeFormat=h':'mmt
Autostart=1
BlankOnTalk=0
BlankScreen=0
CallerID=0
DateFormat=dddd', 'd MMMM
DpadOn=0
IdleStart=0
NoPowerSuspend=0
OffLCD=17
SafeMode=0
ShowAlarm=1
ShowAppointment=0
ShowTask=1
S2U2Path="\Program Files\S2U2"
TimeFormat=H':'mm

- All files under \GFX\ can be modified. To keep the transparent effect of some graphics, the top left corner pixel must be the transparent color.

Command Switch of iLock2:
iLock2.exe accepts the following command switches:
-slide to start/invoke S2U2
-nomsg to not to show any message even it closes itself & S2U2
-refresh to reload the registry settings & restart S2U2

Known limitations & FAQs:
- How to change wallpaper?
- Create a jpg file with resolution the same as your device (QVGA is 240 x 320; VGA is 480 x 640); rename it to "wallpaper.jpg"; copy it to the gfx folder (default is \program files\s2u2\gfx\); restart iLock2. And the file "wallpaperL.jpg" is for the Landscape mode.

- How to edit the registry?
- You need 3rd party software like "Task Manager" & "Total Commander". Try to google them & they are very user friendly apps.

- After changing the registry settings, iLock2/S2U2 do not behave as instructed??
- Pls RESTART iLock2 after any registry settings is made.

- If "Password/Pin Lock" or "Owner Information" are enabled to display at wake up, S2U2 may cause the screen flicker?!
- Pls disable these functions. Besides, it'll break the CallerID function!

- When system notifications come in (e.g. SMS, email or alarm...), S2U2 will be unlocked?!
- Yes, otherwise you will not be notified. But S2U2 will reappear after these notifications are dismissed.

- My device's special Keys are not blocked by S2U2?! (e.g. HTC Touch, the camera key on some devices...)
- This is a device specific problem that cannot be resolved.

- The quality of the CallerID pic is so bad even the original photo is in high quality?!
- DO NOT use the system contact to add photo to a contact. Use other s/w like Inesoft Address Book or PocketCM to do so.

- How to mute an incoming call when CallerID is enable?
- PRESS the volume up/down keys.

- After soft-reset, the first call's callerID is not shown sometimes?
- It's an OS issue, no solution yet.

- How to restore the system caller tab?
- set CallerID to 0 or uninstall S2U2, then soft-reset.

- Some keys are not blocked?
- Please check if you have installed any key mapping s/w that will break S2U2.

- My device shows a blank screen on start?
- It's not compatible with S2U2. It's a h/w problem & could not be solved.

- Some of my scheduled tasks did not run as schedule, but it'll start when manually turn on the device?
- Try to set OffLCD longer (17 seconds or more).

- Some of my device's background jobs (like email sync or bluetooth connection) stopped unexpectedly when S2U2 is running?
- Try to enable NoPowerSuspend.

- NOT Compatible devices: SX66, Xda IIs (Blue Angel / Himalaya)

- NOT Compatible s/w: AEButton, WA3, RealVGA

Trouble shooting:
If you find your device is hang with a blank screen or no response with any key or screen-touch, you may not need to reset it. Please follow these steps if your device has a camera button:
- press the camera button to invoke the built-in camera program
- press the end call button to go back to Today screen
- use Task Manager (a third party freeware; highly recommended) to close the S2U2.EXE

Requirements:
- PPC WM 5.0
- PC WM 6.0
