I don't know of a way, no. You mean lock as in the "secure device" thing, where you have to type in a code when you unlock? If so, I think you have a good use case, that is, when charging, the device is usually in a secure location (e.g. beside your bed), so you don't need it to be locked, but when you pick it up in the morning, you want it to be locked.

Yes Im talking about securing the device.
The reason why: In Massachusetts it is now illegal to text or surf the web while driving, this is for good reason and i have nothing against that, BUT now if you get stopped, the officer can ask for your phone and look through it. If its locked I can either tell him the code or tell then to get me a warrant.
=)
so the idea is as soon as it leaves my car charger I want it to lock

the program dbus-scripts-settings has a function for triggering a script when charger is unplugged.
put this in a script:
And set it to be triggered by charger unplugged in dbus-scripts-settings
put this in a script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.system_ui /com/nokia/system_ui/request com.nokia.system_ui.request.devlock_open string:"com.nokia.mce" string:"/com/nokia/mce/request" string:"com.nokia.mce.request" string:"devlock_callback" uint32:'3'
