This file cause a problem - two icons of conversation..
Anyway, if you still want this, via winscp, you need to do this as ROOT, default password: rootme

Ok, it's working, but only from home screen.. When you open SMS or mail from the lock screen or from the notification screen, it's not ask for password, it's just opens this two applications..

Instead full explanation, you can use my consol app: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=80600
Just read PDF instruction before using this app...
Go to tweak H, option 1, this will ask you about changing pass for ROOT and for USER, after this you can use winscp without problem.
Also i added this app to tweak OO, and you can easily lock 4 app: mail, gallery, messages, video..

You don't need to do this manually.. You can do this easily from tweak OO by one click..
But if you still want to do this manually:
1. go to: /usr/share/applications
2. Open file named messaging-ui.desktop
3. instead this:
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Conversations
X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_msg
X-MeeGo-Translation-Catalog=messaging
X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.messaging-ui
X-Maemo-Fixed-Args=-inbox
Icon=icon-l-conversation
Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --type=m /usr/bin/messaging-ui
OnlyShownIn=X-MeeGo
should be this:
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Conversations
X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_msg
X-MeeGo-Translation-Catalog=messaging
X-Maemo-Fixed-Args=-inbox
Icon=icon-l-conversation
Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --type=m /opt/lockapp/bin/lockapp LockMe /usr/bin/messaging-ui 
OnlyShownIn=X-MeeGo
4. refresh your homescreen:
Code:
/sbin/initctl restart xsession/mthome
5. done

P.S. Before editing, do backup of this file...
