Ok. It still will never lock as long as the device is put into standby first. This still allows the device to be able to wake up, accept key presses, and make random pocket calls. As stated I have a workaround, so it will not affect me any longer, but you may hear from new purchasers/customers about it. I have been training myself to get out of the old habit of hitting the standby button, and using the QL "L" shortcut, although I do wish you could find a way to add it back from that previous version.
I still have the app switcher problem. This is bothering me the more I see it. I don't like that someone can mess around and see who I have contacted last, or the subject of my emails, or my last 5 tweets, etc. But, I need someone else to confirm what I am seeing. 9700/5.0.0.938.
Other than that the app is really coming together nicely. It locks when it should, and with the new option checked (fixed), it no longer locks while in any other application except for the homescreen and the "all apps" screen (which is also the home screen-just extended). It does not lock while in BBM for me, and the app does not stall/lock out, or go into standby when used for me at all. It just locks-no standby. It unlocks during a call, and locks back up after a call automatically. The only thing I have not tried is the lock while in call option, but I believe this was really intended for Storm users, and I don't have a problem with key presses while in a call on my 9700.
Yay!!! Keep up the good work Ani...

What I want from the app switcher is for it not to show when locked. The app never did this before until the recent versions, so I don't know why it has to be like this now. I wished you would have chimed in earlier to say you had the same experience, so I wouldn't be searching for other 9700 users. lol.
Since this was not present before, I absolutely believe this can be overidden as it was before.
Although you are correct about someone being able to just press the *->call button to unlock it, I dont like to see that for privacy reasons. Also, if someone has a dynamic home page for the browser (such as animated .gifs), as I stated it would just keep running while in the pocket with considerable battery drain.
In addition, the previous version that worked "all around" for me (I think it was v1.43) allowed the device to lock in the backround when in standby mode. It no longer will lock if put into standby mode first. I also do not know why this can be implemented again since it was already there before. Ani did have this before. Read my post #127.
V1.43 was sick for me, every build after that took something away.09-29-10 02:04 AM
