Actually you are correct but I was referring to a phone that locks down actual directories. Smart phones not included.

like I said it could be easily implmented
and since SE is so innovative it would be cool if they actually made that feature in the next firmware/phone
I am not asking for a nuclear bomb in my phone I am asking for 5 lines of text to be added in the firmware, and since I see a lot of other people asking for the same thing then I guess it has it's purpose.
If you use that method of thinking then you should have told SE when they first implemented bluetooth in their phones:
'name one phone that has bluetooth in it -_- '

By all means lead the charge. Write the code yourself and submit it if it is that easy. Have Davinci Team program it. They do a bit of ARM programming. Come on get things done!!!!!!!!

majority or all motorola phones have it as far as I'm aware - can lock specific directories not just code for keypad

I'm not suggesting encryption or anything, just a lock on the phone so that someone *casually* browsing my phone couldn't find anything valuable. It *wouldn't* need implementing at the filesystem level. Even a pin-locked keylock would be great.

Have you mentioned this to SE to see if this is such a simple solution as other here have stated? I know that SE is actively listening to suggestions to make their products better. I also know that your idea is not new but for some reason, SE does not consider it a "viable" feature. No idea why, but you can always ask again.

What are you talking about? NTFS is even older than FAT32. NTFS was introduced with Windows NT in like 1993 and FAT32 didn't come until Windows 95. You must mean FAT16.
I'm on NTFS but there's still quite a lot on FAT32. FAT32 is still used because it runs more efficiently on smaller volumes and is generally a bit quicker. |

@Through....
Reiser4 is a computer file system, a new "from scratch" version of the ReiserFS file system, developed by Namesys and sponsored by DARPA as well as Linspire.
As of June 2005, Reiser4 still has not been merged into the mainline Linux kernel and consequently is not supported on many Linux distributions; however, its predecessor has been much more widely adopted.
I would say that Reiser4 has quite a ways to go before it rules anything.
My prior comment still stands.

sapporobaby: R4 isn't the most stable of filesystems, but it's damn fast. I've never experienced a problem with it yet.

Dude, it was a joke and I am talking about the entire OS. Maybe I should have said, "Mac OS X 10.4.2 rules".

THE SOLUTION
have a spare memory card, one for general use and one for personal items and keep it under the battery/in your wallet

Babis: Erm, I started the thread  If you re-read my first post, a pin-locked keylock would be just as useful
