@ WhyBe
Guess I'm used to my Pxxx series line. I guess I would tolerate a screen saver with a clock on the face.

I dont see a VGA version or option to select any version. There is just a download option.

^^ yeah...the download link for VGA seems not working.
if you go to this site : http://www.ac-s2.com/ , or here : http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/ you can download the latest s2u2 v1.4 for VGA.

Thanks bro. Downloading.
Will try it on.
Also in the other version the contact pics are blurr. Looks like they are pixelrating. Hope the VGA version rectifies it.
Will update u. |

Thanks bro.
It works fine.
Still facing the following bugs:
Contact picture blurr
I think the app drains the battery? Is it true? |

@BigFeat
you must use the whether application listed in the program...like sbp whether. Unfortunately you have to buy the whether application. I've tried once with sbp whether...but I don't like it.
@molecule
yes... the contact picture is blur. I believe the reason is the way contact picture is formatted by windows mobile contact. If I'm not mistaken, there is a work around for this problem. Maybe you have to read the forum (XDA developer).
and.. regarding the battery. that is what I've read from the comments. But, for me, I don't have any problem with the battery usage. Version 1.40 address the power consumption problem (if you read the change log).

Does this program actually auto-lock? I had it running for quite a bit, but I noticed that I would have to manually lock it by executing the software lock. I thought the advantage of this software is that it would auto-lock after x seconds if the handset was idle? I'm surprised SE didn't implement that feature with their hardware lock button.

@BigFeat:
Spb Time does the screen saver/clock thing like the p-Series. But I don't know how much of a strain is put on the battery since, I'm sure, the X1 is a lot more battery hungry than older smartphones. |

But does it auto-lock after x-seconds? I keep the phone idle for the longest time and the only way it will lock is if I execute the software lock manually.

If you go to S2U2 settings... you can set the device to auto lock. You can set the device to lock when the backlight turns off in how many seconds you want.
for example, I set lock when devices wakes up to `ON', I set lock when screen is blank to `ON', I set Lock when backlight turns off to `ON', I set power off in 40s and I set the blank screen on talk to `ON'. All this is under On battery power.
You will see, when the backlight turns off, the S2U2 screen will come up which means the device is locked and you have to slide to unlock the device.

@MyP910
So does that mean I have to set my backlight to turn off in (ex. 30 sec) through settings -> system -> power -> advanced first? I assumed this program could lock automatically in lieu of my having to mess with the system battery power settings.

Unfortunately.. yes. you have to set the backlight to off in number of seconds in the power management. S2u2 will lock the device based on the backlight.
I don't know if there is other way to trigger S2U2. |

Thanks m8.
By any chance has anyone else tried Pocketshield. I tried it out per recommendation of a post on this thread. It appears to be a smaller program which uses less resource. The locking mechanism was the same as s2u2 which more unlocking options.
Weather: The spb weather still doesn't work for me. How do I go about getting any weather option to display for me. Where do I need to subscribe (if needed) to get this to display on my screen. I currently have the battery in full screen mode. Not sure if that inhibits the weather display.
