I need a good key lock program

[zamboniguy420]

Can anyone recommend a good key lock program? Right now i am using the one included with Smarttoolkit but i find the back light still comes on too frequent when some buttons are touched while in my pockets. I think it is killing my battery time.

Thanks

autokeylock or maybe it's "auto key lock"

pretty sure it's one word. search the forum for it. just do your reading because you may need to adjust your registry setting as it tends to set your display timeout to 7 seconds. Works fine after you regedit that oddity out.
It's free too.
It's also available in most WM6 ROMs.

<shamelessplug>Correct would be Automatic Keylock (http://maniac.fschreiner.de)</shamelessplug> ;)

If something like that happens, it's inside Windows Mobile. Automatic Keylock does _not_ touch the display timeout.

It seems to have something to do with the registry holding the the non-keylock settings and the keylock settings.
It's this key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Power\LockLevel]

Quite e few threads/posts with people crying because their screen times out too fast (7secs). Changing the value to "0" fixes it.

I wondered if it had something to do with some keys being in hex and others in binary.... So if a hex/binary/decimal value is entered into a binary/decimal/hex key, it sets the wrong timeout.

I often see people post the same registry keys and the values are not in the same entry system (how do I express this thought?). Of course this is with all kinds of things, not just the above registry key.

I have a real mishmash in my audiogain keys. some are hex, e.g. C7, some are plane decimal values and some are binary. Makes it difficult to tweak when it's not obvious what you're looking at.
