    Dear All,

    While the Beta of Fake Call is on the verge of completion, we are ready with a new AutoLock application.

    AutoLock allows you to set the amount of time that elapses before the device automatically locks the display to prevent unwanted keypress activity. AutoLock starts itself whenever your device starts, so no more worries about complex settings! You can also specify if you want an app in foreground to lock or not when AutoLock activates.

    We want to test run this app for different device types and OSes. In case you are interested in trying a pre-release app, please post below your device model and full OS version so that we can get the ball rolling. I think we will start with a small group (maybe the first 15 to reply) for private beta.

    Screen shots attached for an idea.

    UPDATE: The beta is now over and the app is available for download and purchase at AutoLock - Automatic Device Lock for BlackBerry Torch and latest devices - Utilities BlackBerry Apps - Crackberry BlackBerry Apps Store and at our website BlackBerry Threaded SMS, BlackBerry Call Blocker, Empower HTML Mail Viewer and more | GetEmpower

    Best Regards,
    Ani.

    This sounds like a sweet app. I'll test it for you. I don't like using the lock screen button on top of the phone. It doesn't work so very well anyways when you carry your phone in your pocket. The phone doesn't always stay locked.

    I've been using a program since late 2008 called AutoLock v0.5.

    I've never seen any updates (or even looked)... but it still works on my 9650 (all OS versions). Is this an update? Or are you a different developer.

    Pretty sure it's a different dev.
    Where'd you get that app? I tried an auto lock app, it didn't work for me.

    The app you're using must be from another developer. I've only just developed this app and put it up for beta testing.

    I was wondering the same thing. I will check this out during the day.

    Downloaded and installed.

    Several issues right off the bat:

    1. It doesn't seem to be working. I set it to lock after 1 minute and it's not locking. I would guess this has to do with the changes to the locking behavior in higher versions of OS 5. I'm on .862.

    2. On start up I get the permission message and hit OK. I have to hit OK a second time to clear the message.

    3. Followed permissions instructions of going to Menu > Save, but this did not work. I had to go to the applications list to set permissions.

    4. For the option to not lock when apps are in the foreground, all 3rd party apps were checked, and I had to unchecked them all. I have 52 items in the list, so that's a lot of checking. I think the default should be to have them all unchecked and then just check the ones you want.
