@ thomas i do have , but as i have written , lock and unlock again and again 4 times a minute is really annoying for me .
Lol, I see ;) Yeah in that context I guess the device is not perfect (then again, I think almost no phone is).

Maybe an option like the iPhone has, where the incoming message is displayed on the locked screen is an additional option that can be handy to you? Then you would immediately know whether you actually want to unlock your device to write a reply or not. Although of course technically I have no idea how you would go about to create such a feature :D

for ages ive had a shortcut by making a file in

usr/share/applications/hildon/lock.desktop

containing:

I'll see if I manage to scrape up time for it. but in nutshell it would only be a python app that stays in the background and listens sms dbus signal and when it is triggered, sends dbus signal to unlock the device.

actually what's even better is an app that listen to hildon notification, so not only sms, but im and even pidgin (if you install pidgin-libnotify)
I was thinking of making this, but if you'd want to make it, think I'll just wait for you to do it :D

for me, this one is a better approach:

it locks the screen on keyboard close and unlocks it, when opening the keyboard...

Hi, I've been thinking of making similar desktop icon, but for Phone Lock/Secure Device instead
apparently it successfully lock the device, but it will also create a window (I have no idea, XTerm window maybe) and on the screen, there will be a standard numpad for unlocking the phone, BUT with the desktop menu bar intact (should be blank)
I've tried with "NoDisplay=true" but it won't work
Thanks a lot

Add this to your .desktop file:

X-App-Loading-Image=none

why not just juse the switch on the side of the N900? A quick flick and it locked, and you don't even have to close your conversations app.
