[app request] unlock on removal from case. willing to donate

---

i have the offical HTC S550 slip case which completely covers the phone.
i would like an application that unlocks the phone when the proximity sensor does not detect the case and/or the light sensor senses an increase in light.
accelerometer support could be added for when the phone is held with the screen pointing your face (user calibrate-able) for people who do not have a front covering case.

im currently using no lock but i still have to press buttons to turn the screen on whereas my girlfriend who has an old blackberry just takes it out of its slip case and the screen lights up.

would be willing to donate money to whoever produces a free app to do this that is bug free and maintained.

Not easily done. Imagine if it is dark and also an app like that it would eat your battery as the prox sensor is continuously checking for light

I had software on my DHD wich showed me the power usage for the onboard devices. And the proximity sensor used the least power, it showed using 2~3mAh. So its not a big battery hog.

I will post later, if i rememeber the software
