No autolock on when sliding closed?

Hey All,

First time poster here, have been reading quite a bit however and these forums have provided some excellent tips.

Just a question question;
When I slde my N80 closed, the keypad doesn't auto lock. I have to press a button to lock it.

Is it possible to enable auto-keypad lock when the phone slides closed?
I haven't been able to find anything on this as of yet.

Thanks 😊

Thanks for that, couldn't seem to find anything, maybe it was operator error 😊

It sucks that Nokia didn't make it autolock when sliding closed, out of the box, but these apps should help.

Cheers 😊

Even with teh keylock on I tend to keep my phone in my pocket and I'm always catching buttons on it.(media, contacts etc I had a Sanyo S750 previously and NEVER managed to press any buttons even without locking them.

theres a new app out called handy keylock, wen u slide n80 closed ur keypad locks without the press of a button! v handy as i was getting angry at keep pressing YES wen slide it shut!

Thanks for that info, any idea where we can get this app?
A google didn't return anything of use.

Cheers

Can't believe how good that handy keylocker is, I've just got the trial version at the mo:icon14: It will even lock keys after a set time.
