Nokia Nseries :: How To Turn Off The Auto-keypad Lock
Jul 11, 2010
I have had this fantastic phone for a couple of days now but I have one minor niggle, how on earth do I switch off the automatic keypad lock ?, I do not mean how do I unlock the keypad, I mean the lock that automatically comes on when the phone is left idle, I've scoured the manual and can't seem to find it

My n70 Mobile has been turn on auto keypad lock. Thats is disgusting to me . I want to solve this problem. I want to turn off auto key lock for my N70.
Yesterday when i was doing text chat suddenly my side keypad lock stopped responding, am not able to lock or unlock using that key. If i push it down its staying down only and if i push it up its staying up not able to even turn on the flash light on with long downward push.
My "screen saver" is set to none so as soon as i lock the keypad it should black out (maximum battery)... But at the moment its staying illuminated with the battery draining before my eyes!
Is there an "auto" keypad lock in the bold 9700? by that a mean can you set it to auto lock the keypad after a certain time of no use like the nokia and other phones, The only way I have found to lock the keypad is with the button on the top left.
I got the Nokia E5-00 today, and out of everything I can't manage to figure out how to stop the key pad from locking automatically. It's getting on my nerves, if I could at the least put a longer time limit on the period between where I leave the phone and it locking.
got a serious issue with my mobile Nokia N97 minii updated the software to 30.0.004.290.02 version Middle East region : Egyptafter installing it via Nokia Ovi Suit on through my PCi nomore can use the ( AutoLock Period )when i try to change the choice to user defind fromSettings > Phone > Phone mgmt. > Security Settings > Phone and Sim Card > Phone Autolock Period , when i write for ex. 1 minute and press OK the Ok button delete the number i insertedi don`t know what to do ..
I have a S5, the screen would just auto turn on even after lock. I have tried everything in setting but none can stop this. I have tried to move my hand above the sensor while it is locked, then the screen would turn on. The sensor would have a blue light first then the screen turn on.
Even the phone is in the bag or on the table while I am having meeting, the screen would just randomly turn on. It is very embarrassing while I am having important meeting and the phone is on the table. People may think I play phone or something like that.
My phone model is Nokia 2680s.I want to learn if there is a way to lock and unlock the keypad merely with the slide operation. for unlocking the keypad it is not a problem. The feature already exists. However for locking the phone I could not find a way. Evenif I slide off the phone, the phone keypad is still active.
Before I was using samsung and this feature is default in samsung models and is very efficient. You just receive a call, slide open your phone or you browse the menus and when you slide off the phone, the phones keypad is locked! that's it.is there a way to apply such a feature for Nokia 2680s as well?
I have a Nokia E72 and I am otherwise pleased with it, but when the phone is in the jeans pocket keypad often opens by itself. It is not nice at all
I would like to know is there any possibility to change the keys that lock opens. Is there even theoretical possibility to change those keys? Clearly left softkey - right softkey combination is not a good option for me
I have had my X6 for just under 6 months and the keypad lock button has snapped off. I have a protective cover on the phone and screen cover and have to admit that when I got the phone, I though it was a bad design and would eventually happen. How do I get it repaired?
When the phone's on, and i try using the keypad to either to type out a text or to move around the menu, the phone hangs / keypad doesnt work. I dont know whether its the phone hanging or the keypad problem because the screen goes dark, and i cant revive it, but its still on, and i have to restart the phone, but the same thing keeps happening. I tried hard reseting my phone, that didnt work either.
i connected my phone to a "unprotected" pc to download a mp3 song. after i did that the phone started to lock and unlock his keypad without beeing touched and when i pres the buttons sometimes the phone does what that button should do and somethimes it doesent. my question is "The problem is a virus (if yes how do i deal with it) or it's an hardware problem (with the slide or something else)?"
I found that I can't use the numeric keypad while calling with my N8. Is it possible to show the numerica keypad as possible as other Symbian devices are?
Because of that issue, I can't listen to my voicemails because you need to send dialing signals to use your voicemail box.
I like the new qwerty keypad always prefer a qwerty over a simple one,but I'm facing a problem that the keypad in my N8 is not completely accurate,often I press some key and another undesired key is pressed and often I have to apply some pressure on the screen as it doesn't responses to my touch.
I upgraded my Nokia 5800 to the latest firmware (US: 40.2.005). I'm not sure I like this new firmware. When a calendar event alarm surfaces on the touchscreen (new buttons in this firmware), if the keypad is locked, the touchscreen is unresponive when attempting to hit the STOP or SNOOZE button. Strangely, the calendar alarm recurs with the normal touchscreen message (old firmware) subsequently and is responsive to the buttons (despite a keypad lock). Please advise how I can eliminate one of the two repeat calendar alarms or make the new calendar alarm responsive to touch when my keypad is locked. I try to unlock the keypad and it does not work during this time.
My E52 has proble. After enanled function phone auto lock period 30 mins, I could not disable it. When i goto phone autolock period, change, select NONE, then it appeared error: phone unable to unlock.I tried factory reset and reinstall software but still can not change. I have to enter lock code after every 30 mins phone unuse.
Im using Nokia E6 from past 2-3 weeks. One of the most annoying features i found so far is that phone's keypad light doesn't turn on when you want to type the passcode for unlocking the phone. Even if you manage to unlock & want to type an SMS or a browser URL, still the keypad light is OFF. This makes it really annoying & next to impossible to type proper keys in darkness.When you leave the phone without touching any keys till its screen goes little dimmer, then when you press any navigation keys, then the keypad light actually turns on!
if is it possible to make the screen auto-lock when you are talking to the phone.? (from the options in the mid of a conversation if found that you can manually lock it) i know that deactivates when you cover the light sensor but i believe its not enough cause all the time i find open apps on the screen because of my ear!!
After updating with symbian anna update I enabled phone auto lock option with some code. Now I want to disable this option. When I am trying to disable this option I am getting "Unable to unlock phone" message. I tried to set Phone Auto Lock period to None. I am getting the same message.
here are reports of N8 getting stuck, crashing, freezing during a simple voice call or using Ovi Maps / GPS or doing simple operations in some applications.There are reports N8 auto-restarts, reboots by itself.There are reports N8 is bricked, dead. t cannot start anymore.1. Is this freezing a problem only with N8 or does it happen ith C7, C6 or other Symbian^3 phones?. . . . (like E7 for the guys who got earlier a review unit)2. Does the freezing of the OS occurs with Symbian s60v5 as well -ike N97, Nokia 5800, 5230?
When I'm writing a text to someone, I want my N8 (running Belle) to automatically capitalize the word "I" instead of leaving it a lowercase "i" after I press space - is there any way to do this? The capitalization (and lack of access to the custom dictionary) is really annoying.
