Securing the XDA for usage

[Linger1974]

Hi all,

I'm new to XDA's, I just received my Siemens SX56 via Ebay (Rogers AT&T doesn't sell them anymore in Ontario Canada?!?!) and am looking to secure use on it.

Basically, I don't want anyone to receive calls or SMS messages on the device except for myself. I am wondering if there's an easy way to secure it while it's on, so that someone should need to enter a key/button sequence or password in order to answer a call or access the desktop.

Any thoughts? I tried to search a bit in here for similar entries but came up with nothing.

if you set the password then they cant access the device and read sms
still think you can answer a call though
prob because it would result in alot of missed calls if people had to typs in their password after getting the device up from their deepest pocket

I'm now finding that I get an air balloon type popup even through the password screen showing my text message (SMS) that's come in. Anyone know how to mod the settings or the device so that this doesn't happen? I get a lot of sensitive type sms text messages that I can't afford to have seen by unauthorized people...

Any help is appreciated!

sms are sent clear text through the networks so are unsuitable for anything confidential., so a lot of unautorised peeps are alredady seeing your stuff.

better set it up in your notification not to display the message after receiving the sms.
