>From what i have gathered, this community is quite opposed to custom lockscreens, because what they do is remove access to safeties like the back button and the home button by exploiting loopholes in the SDK. But does this mean that you guys are opposed to well known apps such as WidgetLocker, or Lockscreen Agenda?
The reason i ask is because i am learning to develop apps for android for one specific reason (and i have only managed to make it through the hello world tutorial at the moment). I wish to make an app that acts as a lockscreen. it would disable the home button, disable the back button, and then it would dismiss itself upon a successful entry of a password. If anyone is willing to help, i am coming from a programming background of C# and i have no XML, CSS, or Java experience. Could someone please answer just a couple questions for me? i would greatly appreciate it. 1. how do i make an application launch when the screen is activated? from what ive gathered, i could somehow use the Powermanager.isScreenOn() method, but i do not know how to set up a listener. Additionally, it sounds as though the isScreenOn() method is a huge battery drain. 2. what method does one call to dismiss an application? (for example, when a password is entered successfully) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
