6680 on/off button problem

Hi All,

Could someone help me solving my problem with on/off button in 6680? The thing is that more than once I've pressed this button acidently and my phone switched off.
(1) Is there a way to customize action of this button to do something else?
(2) Maybe alternative would be to remove "off" option from the profiles list activated too by this button and which is quite useful.
(3) Last thing that would help too is to define longer time required to press this button to activate the switch-off button.

Please, share your ideas.

(1) I don't believe there is.
(2) Can't be done.
(3) No such feature, either.

Consider getting one of the free automatic keypad locking apps; AutoLock, JJLKeyLock.

I have already AutoLock, but still have the problem since I set the lock to be activated after 30 sec of inactivity (less is very annoying).

Checked the "Turn Off" desctiption... how this helps? From the desctiption and demo video I don't see this so if you can could you please elaborate?

Just go another idea: (4) to forse confirmation question on shutdown. Something like "Are you sure?".

To themafia.69, what a great advice! WOW! Your next would be "press green to make a call"?
Something more constructive?

Dear Friends,

I am seeking your help regarding the autolock function. Can you give me some ideas about how the autolock feature works in nokia 6680.

I have taken it from my boss and he has left job. I can not find him now. I want to activate the autolock function but im worried about the password fiture. Is there any way to reset the autolock password. I dont know the old password for autolock.

Theres a option for setting up the time for the phone to be locked. If i mention a time, after that it will ask for a passwork to unlock it. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Please help me friend
