Password promt after waking phone

[cmarti]

Does anyone knows if the password prompt after waking the devise can be changed? I had my corporate email set on my Nexus and the password prompt is annoying me every time i would like to change it like to prompt after 5 or 10mins is possible.

Are you on CM6? There are new settings to control the lock out time.

Yes I am on CM6 where are these settings? I been all over but can't find them.


Edit: Found the lock out time, what I like is to avoid the time it takes once locked to ask for password.

I am looking for this as well.

CM Settings > User Interface > Screen Timout Delay

"How long to delay before enabling screen lock when screen times out"

.......

Alternatively you can use the Power Controls widget and choose the "Screen lock" to do it manually.

I think we may be talking about two different things.

I have a pin lock set up. After the screen turns off its quite a pain to type in a 7 digit number each time. I'm looking for a way to continue to keep the slide to unlock screen when the screen turns off, but to delay the actual pin/pattern lock for x amount of minutes

The slide to unlock and pin are joined at the hip. You can't have one without the other. (this was stated by android team member and it will not be changing anytime soon as it's a security issue).

If you use the settings I pointed to you can delay the lock combo altogether for X amount of time. Use the top for when the screen turns off by itself, and the bottom one for when you manually press the power button to turn the screen off.

(I know this because I use a pin code as well, and I just tested it)

I supposed you could pester someone over at CM and they'll look into decoupling it.

You can download an app from the market to disable/enter your password for you if you dont like having to enter it everytime you wake the phone. I personally use an app called Lockpicker so i dont have to type in my exchange email password everytime I wake my phone. Just a suggestion.

I like your suggestion, because our Draconian IT policies force us to use a password after wake always. I will look for the app now.

Thanks a lot.

Edit: this doesn't work with Froyo. Bummer.

I see. I tried what you suggested and it is what i was looking for. I just have a habit of turning off the screen with the power button and never configured the second setting. Thanks for pointing that out!
