Default How do you lock your 9100/9105?

Hi,

Bought my wife a case for her 9105 because she always forgets to lock it and ends up phoning her brother by accident coz he's first in her phone book. I thought it would 'sleep' when put in it, but it doesn't. I notice there are no magnets in the case.

I can't find an auto lock function on the phone to lock it or any time out settings so I wondered how others delt with this? Thanks.

+1 exactly, thats the best way... or you can also get a third party app for that, but it works better if you do it...

if the 9105 is the same as the 9100, there is a setting under:

Options > Password > Lock Handheld Upon Holstering: YES / NO

Set that to YES, and it should accomplish what you want.

I have it set that it automatically locks itself (with password) after 10 minutes. You can set it to however many minutes you want. You can also download a program that does the same for you without having to use a password.
