I am the developer of the app 'No Lock', which indeed makes use of the Keyguard apis, to try to disable the lock screen. I can confirm that this does not work very well, and inconsistently across devices ;) I understand the api was not meant to be used this way.
The app has had about 770K downloads, which clearly shows that there is a real demand from the users to be able to disable the lock screen completely. Some people just want to use their phone immediately even if that means a risk the phone will inadvertently turn itself on in your pocket :) I was not aware that this option existed in 3.x and I am very glad to hear that. I really hope it will also be there for phones under Ice Cream Sandwitch! -- BoD -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
