Here it is btw... copy EXE anywhere on your device (e.g. 'My Documents') and run to set up. Delete EXE to uninstall ;)

trying now, will let you know, hey what are you using to capture the registry, I have one more annoying feature I need to get disabled with my bluetooth car stereo, " something is polling & causing the phone to switch itself on while I'm using in the car"....I want to disable it.

Hi paul,

Here is, for me anyway, the ideal behaviour: kill the lock (forcing the reg key to 0 is fine with me, I can live with random flickers of the lock message) only after I have pressed the Dpad key during a call (incoming or outgoing).

Here is my reasoning: I like to have the screen locked during a call to prevent unwanted screen touches (face, pulling out of the pouch, etc). What I am looking for is to be able to unlock it, and have it stay unlocked (or continuously unlocking it) for the rest of the call to allow me to listen to voicemail, navigate through auto-attendants,etc.

So I guess if you could start resetting the reg key when I press the Dpad key (or any other key if it is difficult to monitor) during a call, and stop resetting at the end of the call (or at the start of the next call), I would be a very happy camper ;) .

Thanks, I appreciate your work on this.

That would theoretically possible.

Everything around the locking is happening in Samsung custom dialler component - SECDialer.dll. The best chance of getting rid of the lock completely is probably to customise the internals of that DLL... Not an easy task tho ;)

the easiest solution to disabling the action key lock during a call is changing the dialer skin (you save 10mb of memory, it looks cool cause it's black and you lose the video call option); if you don't like it, simply reverse the registry edit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled
And you are changeing the value data from ‘1′ to ‘0′.
