Re: Ears and FR - Display Locker
HI, regarding the installation of the display locker themes. I added the 'hint' / instruction to the Display Locker (http://wiki.openmoko.org/Display_Locker) Wiki page.

Re: Ears and FR - Display Locker
Sounds good thanks. I myself will want these instructions tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, what did you change the theme to?

Re: Ears and FR - Display Locker
I would suggest re-using the Display Locker program created for 2007.2 that's referenced at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Current_Applications#List_.2F_Description_2 on the wiki. It was, to my understanding, added as a standard application quite some time ago. Also thanks to the core Openmoko team. I should be getting my FreeRunner Saturday. Actually having the hardware will make me far more interested in developing for it again. The passion placed into creating a quality device warms my heart. Thank you for the work towards getting it out the door squashing bugs.

I know that there's some options available during a call, but I'd much rather have to unlock them first. Of course, it doesn't have to be a lock that's particularly difficult to un-lock - pressing the aux button before the screen does anything would be great. Use the g-meters / gestures! FR on ear - locked. FR in front of face - unlocked. Also simply placing buttons on bottom of screen instead on top might help a lot. /jOERG ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Why not using this one : http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/User:Quicksand#zedlock I like the idea of drawing a 'Z' anywhere on the screen. Comparing to a sliding-cursor unlock tool, I see many advantages : - no need to look at the screen. The 'Z' can be drawn everywhere on the screen whereas one need to aim the cursor in the other lock tool - it's AFAIK different from the unlock systems used on others phones, particuliary the Iphone (which uses a sliding cursor to unlock). Being different is an advantage : I don't want my FR to have an interface look and feel duplicated from the Iphone's one. Taking good ideas from the others is good, but not looking for being a clone (a clone will never be as good as the cloned model). My 2 cents...

I think a cool use of a slide locker would be an image of an old Model 500(http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/9765/model500cz8.jpg) phone, with the handset hovering above it. You would be required to hang up the handset(slide it down) in order to end a call. Similarly you could make an app that requires you to pick up the handset off the hook to answer a call(slide it up).
