ThrottleLock 0.7!

tl07

ThrottleLock is a pattern based lock application, fully skinable and with multilanguaje support. ThrottleLock is a little app to lock your device. It will only be unlocked when a pattern is drawn on a grid of points.

Important notes



This app's target is to provide a cool way to lock the device along with some security. For that purpose the device CANNOT be unlocked without the correct code. It's really important to remember the pattern you entered at it's startup. I recomend performin a backup before installing this app. This app is provided 'As Is' and I take now responsibility of possible harm or lost of data derived from it's use.

Rember: to get your free license here!!

In the config dialog you must click the top right OK button to save the changes. The exit soft key just exit the application without saving.

Prerequisites

  • WM5 / 6 / 61. Device.
  • Net.CF 2.0 or 3.5 installed
  • 1 MB of storage space.
  • 1 MB of free mem.
  • Will work on any device screen! It's tested to work in qVGA, wqVGA,VGA and wVGA.
  • 3D effect will only work on Samsung or HTC GSensor enabled devices.




Instalation



Copy the CAB file to your device and execute it from there ;). Then softreset. You will see some new shortcuts in Start Menu > Programs



Skins



The app is fully skinable. You can easyly develop new skins by copying the Default skin to another folder inside the skins folder and replacing the png graphics with the ones you like. You can also change font's and spacings by modifying skin.xml file.

Also the app suports multilanguaje. Spanish, English, French, German and Swedish translations are included (though the configuration tool is only available in english at the moment)... To translate the app to your languaje just copy the texts.txt file to a file called texts_XXX.txt where XXX is the 3 chars ISO code for your languaje and then translate the texts inclued in that file. Respect the line orders and cariage returns, also take care to keep the UTC16 encoding. If you have a translation file and want to share it don't heistate posting it at the forum! I will include it in further releases.

You can find many more skins at www.throttlelauncher.com

perfect, but how can i switch off the vibrate?

absonj @ October 30th 2009 3:28 pm

Blue, try eploring through active sync, and if that works, open the file "Throttlelock/Lockcode" In it you will find your code in a numbered sequence. 1 is upper left, with numbers increasing moving top down (3 would be btm left on a 3x3 grid)

blue @ October 20th 2009 8:55 am

anybody know how to reset if u forgot the code

Dennis @ October 19th 2009 4:57 am

Frequently locked up my htc touch. To much trouble for something so small. also anytime i had to enter a code my phone would vibrate the whole time and for like 3 to 6 seconds after i entered the code. uninstalled but then it did not remove from startup, so i had to manual remove files. Not worth the trouble.

C. Young @ August 17th 2009 10:35 pm

App works GREAT! Installed quick and easy! Skins are great too! Thanks! Touch Pro.

abhi @ July 16th 2009 11:05 pm

How do you change the background for this program?

bq0 @ June 17th 2009 5:32 pm

For any reason I got just after installation and changing the skin an exception every time I am invoking the config prg or the lock prg.

Smeg @ May 31st 2009 5:25 pm

This is a great program, one thing it really needs is an "Incase of Emergency" option, where anyone can call a specified number when locked. it'd be EXTREMELY useful to paramedics if you are unconscious and they need a number to contact.

Change Time Format Below!! This is not MY fix but it works! No props or credit is due to me for this!!! Sorry couldn't edit last post!
