Simple app to Lock your Omnia using a single finger swipe :-) here.

[Guest sidfire]

Greetings to all from Sydney :-)

I had been wanting a simple way to lock my i900 by using the finger swiping method by replacing the built-in TaskSwitch app.

With this cab file I have attached, you can now default lock your device using that way.

Post-Installation requires a soft-reset of device.

^{_{*warning* This file Replaces the built-in task switcher app, however all is not lost. to re-assign it back,}}*edit* ^{_{simply reinstall the original Taskswitcher.cab from here:}} TaskSwitcher.CAB

This is very similar to what I wanted, nice work. I'm looking to make the finger swipe put the phone into standby instead of the default lock mode. Could use this in the mean time though. What does it run to lock the phone?

Can anyone post screenshots?

is there any chance to make the swing activate taskfacade instead of taskswitcher?or s2u2 for default device lock?

Yes. For S2u2 , someone else has already done that , you can get it here best-free-tools-for-i900-s2u2-swipe-finger-lock-instead-of-taskswitcher-kyle-is-back/

After I uninstalled the app, It seemed to not replace the TaskSwitcher.exe back into the windows directory. I will replace it with Qbus' .cab (Where mine came originally anyway) Just letting you know.

Thanks for the devicelock.cab. I ended up using VJKeyPress (To emulate power button press) http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJKeyPress

A simpler/more involved way might be to use http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJBrisk VJBrisk to run a different program when TaskSwitcher.exe is run.

Thanks for letting me know that it doesn't replace the original TaskSwitcher upon uninstall.. I will provide the original Backup TaskSwitcher.cab immediately..

as here: TaskSwitcher.CAB this is original I900 taskswitcher for anyone intending to go back :-)

cheers.

I didn't need to install the original DeviceLock.cab when I first ran your application, your app seems to work without it.

screen pics plz.

i might just be being extreemly stupid but i do not get the finger action bit. I have installed the cab but it just adds the software into my program folder, when i select it it locks the device. Where do i get the finger swipe?

[Guest gianton]

Sounds nice, thanks. Any screenshots available?

[Guest nicoscy]

works fine thx

[Guest xfer85]

Sounds good, looking for screenshots too.

Hi Mate, there's no need for a screenshot i suppose?.. this mod just brings the default device lock of your omnia when you finger swipe for inbuilt taskswitcher function.

Hiya mate, take it easy.. To do the finger swipe action, just use your finger to press and hold the area where you see the SAMSUNG logo below the screen (for example the 'M' part of SAMSUNG), now gradually pull up your finger towards the screen area from there.

hope it helps,

cheers
