IPhone :: Get A Quick On/off Button/shortcut/app For The Password Protection Lock?
Mar 13, 2012
I havent seen a wishlist for iOS so far, at least not a relevant one. So I figured that we can add things with time. I wish a quick on/off button/shortcut/app for the password protection lock. Its time consuming to always have it on and it takes too much effort to turn it on and off. On/Off Shortcut on mainscreen for Password Protection?

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1, iPhone 4S, iPad & MacBook Pro user
I'm trying to set my phone to go into lock mode after a period of time (like 5 min or something). I've only been able to auto-lock it with a password protection but I don't want to enter a password every time, I just want to hit the button on top to unlock it.
Also, I don't use a holster...I just throw it in my pocket. Most of the time I remember to lock it before I put it in my pocket but every time I don't, I end up calling someone. I read the other threads prior to posting and nothing.
I'll run through all the information I have and everything I've tried. I have a Verizon IPhone 4S, internationally unlocked, using an international sim card When I first moved to China, everything worked fine. Now that I'm thinking back, I'd say that the first time I noticed problems connecting to wifi was after getting a local 3G sim card for my phone. Since then, I've been able to see wifi networks fine, but get incorrect password everytime I've input them.
Whenever I tap the lock button located at the top of the handset, it seems to only invoke the lock mechanism to stop error entries or calls when in your pocket, it's not locking handset to a point where you require password? I know I can lock it via the bb key but that's tidious. Anyone else experiencing this or annoyed with it?
i am using S6 and somehow or rather this bottom right corner keep popping out this half semi circle with all the quick settings tools. it seems to be happens when i swipe up from the bottom right corner of the screen.
My lock button and home button is not working very well and I was wondering if the apple care protection I bought covered it. If so do i have to pay a deductable?
I was just exploring and set a password and now I need to turn off the password. When I go to the Password page it is "Enabled." How do I disable this?
I was exploring my new Pearl 3G 9105 and has enabled my password protection. I have a difficult situation when trying to disable the password as it is a red lock icon next to the option. It's been locked. How could it happen? Is there a way to unlock it so I can make the change?
If I set a password on my Samsung galaxy S5 so no one can get into my phone, will I be required to enter that password every time I get a phone call? That would be cumbersome.
I'm a new and proud owner of a BlackBerry Curve 8900.I bought this used from a guy and I didn't realize this before til now. This phone is "permanently" password protected, meaning that I need to insert my password every single time I unlock my phone. I tried going to "Password" and disabling this option but there is a red lock beside the option and it won't let me choose Disable, only Enable. I went to TMobile and asked them but they said it's programed into the phone and told me to go back to the guy that sold me this.
I don't keep in contact with the guy who sold me this anymore.Is there ANY WAY to disable this?
I was just forced on BES and now my BB must be "unlocked" with a password. I am sure there has been discussed before, but it someone knows of a way to remove the password-protection, which was placed on my device when activited with BES,
I Have the Aino and How can I protect my SMS section and my photos? Can I install an aftermarket application like this in my phone? http://software.gsmarena.com/product.asp?id=8330&n=Advanced-Device-Locks-for-S60
With the new update, the new slide-camera-button-to-activate-camera feature has a major downfall... you are able to completely bypass entering you password and access all the phone information! After sliding the camera button and getting into the camera, simply pressing the button takes you right into the phone without ever having to enter your password. This is a major problem! Anyone know how to deactivate that camera feature or simply a way to prevent access to my phone?
Shortly after I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1, the camera shortcut on my home screen stopped working. The camera icon appears even if I single click the home button, but whether I single click or double click the home button, touching the camera icon simply makes the screen bounce in rejection.
I have removed the passcode on my phone only to get the same effect.
The camera short cut on the lock bar does not work after latest update 5.1 done today on iPhone 4S.The update was done on wifi without interface of iTunes as the iPhone setting was showing an alert.
I'm new to Android phones so ... When having text notification sounds, on other phones I know there's a quick button to silence it let's say if it goes off and you're talking to someone. I know from reading so far the only "quick" way to do that is hold down the volume button. Is there literally no other button on the phone that you can just click to silence your notification, while having notifications have a volume. I have a hard time hearing so I tend to leave the notifications/ringtone volume on. With a lockscreen.
on the Nexus One, has anyone else experienced sometimes when you're pressing the home button and the search keeps appearing? sometimes when it happens, it doesn't seem to matter how careful i am to press the home button, but the search button keeps getting activated instead. once i lock the phone and then unlock it again, the problem goes away. i've experienced it already 2 times since i got the phone 4 days ago.
I'm currently happy with my Gingerbread but I really want that option to just slide the lcok screen to the left and it will launch the camera app. Right now, in it's place is the Sound option which will let me silence and unsilence the phone by swiping to the left. I hardly use this feature and would be happy to replace it with one for image capturing just like on ICS.
Does anyone know if there is a way to turn on the photo light from the still camera screen with out having to go through the advanced settings. This is a huge pain when you are taking a photo and have to go through several steps to turn on a light that should have been an automatic flash to begin with or at least have a quick toggle button on the same camera screen. This is nuts not to have this at an instant when it is so important to have to take some pictures. the new 2.1 (I cannot tell since I live in the USA and we are getting the shaft on the new update--everyone else is getting it before us and no one will say when we are getting it)
This started for me recently.... When I am in an app and hit the home circle button, I get a quick flash of "loading" when it switches to the home screen. This might be similar to when the icons would flash or re-populate on my G3.
