Is it possible to tell the Diamond to stay locked with the screen off until unlocked manually while a handsfree is connected? I keep my phone in my pocket while driving and it unlocks itself when a call is in progress and then locks itself again, when the call finishes. But if anything is pressed, and it does if I even move a centimetre, it won't lock back again and will in most cases call back the person I've just had a conversation with.
Is there a setting I'm missing or would an application have to be used?

Use TouchLockPro
I have the same need and tried plenty of solutions, no good so far.
One of them was actually an early version of TouchLockPro, however it lacked an important functionality of treating locking as a mode. It has a "lock on incoming call" feature, but that's not what I need because most of the time my phone is on the desk and shouldn't lock on every incoming call. What I need (and I guess IceBone is with me on that) is just a way to make sure that when the phone is locked - it just stays this way till instructed otherwise...

TouchLockPro can be tuned to your needs, just disable autolockonpoweron and you are in control...
I will check it out.
EDIT: Sorry, but that's completely useless to me. There's a thousand other options that I had to disable, it didn't unlock itself with the power button, it also didn't stay locked on incoming call, even though I double checked I had that enabled, it also puts an annoying white square in the windows status bar, which covers the clock.
All I want is for the phone to stay locked on incoming and outgoing calls. If it can be set to only stay locked only while a handsfree set is connected (the phone does know the difference, it shows a nice little headset icon), it would be perfect.
This is the biggest issue with my TD...
Because of this issue BT headset is totaly useless (if device in your pocket or case).. After incoming or outgoing call need to check device for unwanted actions..
Well, if we get more people requesting this, maybe one of the devs could cook up a quick fix.

The white square is the inidcator that it is locked. The configured foreground and background color are reversed when locked.
I will put a convenience setting (Bluetooth) in the action screen on the wish list, so it will never unlock/lock when that mode is activated by te other unlocking methods. But there must also be way to unlock then. Maybe the Stylus still unlocks, so you can disable Bluetooth mode?

I will add this to the next version of TouchLockPro, a way to enable/disable bluetooth lock mode
Could you possibly release a cab that does only that? It would be perfect, it's the only functionality I want.

You can use StylusLock, which makes it possible to lock/unlock only using the stylus sensor. This can be used in combination with Bluetooth.
Also TouchLockPro can be used in combination with Bluetooth, but then you need to change more settings, but this is easy too, via the TouchLockAction settings screens:
- Light Sensor: Uncheck "Use Light Sensor"
- G Sensor: Uncheck "Use G Sensor"
- Nav Sensor: Uncheck "Use Capacitive Nav Sensor"
- TAPI: Uncheck "Use TAPI"
- Other Settings: Uncheck "AutoLockOnPowerOn"
Thereafter you can lock the phone by taking the Stylus Out and putting back in within 1 second and use Bluetooth for picking up the phone. If you take out the Stylus, it will also unlock.
But I would still have to take the stylus out if someone called and I wasn't connected to the bluetooth. Or is only the screen locked?

With the settings I gave, you are in control of locking. So if you did not lock the phone via the Stylus Out/In, it will not be locked, also when a call comes in or you power on (or external event) the phone.
From your response, I understood you only wanted locking with Bluetooth:

But of course, you can also use the capacitive touch area for unlocking and configure power on also as a locking means.
Other Settings: Check "AutoLockOnPowerOn"
Nav Sensor: Check "Use Capacitive Nav Sensor"
In the Nav Sensor screen you can fine tune your capacitive unlocking methods.....
Yes, the only thing I want is for it to stay locked until I unlock it manually when BT is connected.

Ok, so the settings I gave you will do that.
But will those settings be disabled when bt is disconnected and the phone will unlock on an incoming call?

Hmm i have the same problem , this sound very interesting. I did tried everything too. Nothing yet. The only solution is that "ZuinigeRijder" will find a fix or an addon. That would be really helpfull !!

It would still require me to fiddle with it when I connect or disconnect. I've been thinking and the light sensor could also be used, lock the screen/keys permanently when in the dark (pocket) and switch to normal when out. I suspect your program can do that as well, but it's just too fiddly with all the other unneeded options. Can't you delete a few lines and make just a simple locker like that? Wouldn't even need to have a status icon like it does now.
When using the hands free kit built into my car with the phone in my pocket, after making or receiving a call because the screen has been activated I find that the phone changes screens, settings or makes calls.
Has anyone else experienced this and has anyone found a solution to it?
lock the device
you can lock the device. When it is locked, when ended a call, it is still locked so no more random menus.
I've found even locking it doesn't always solve the problem. I've discovered my phone unlocked with random menus showing after being in my pocket, even when I'm absolutely sure I locked it.
First off I want to point out that this bug seems to be related only to T-Mobile S6's. I haven't seen this behavior on any other S6 other than multiple T-Mobile S6's.
So I have my lock screen set to lock automatically within 2 minutes, and to not lock instantly with the power key, with fingerprint security. Normally, within those two minutes, on any other S6 if you receive a text, the phone will turn on and give you a new message notification on a lock screen set to "swipe" to unlock; no fingerprint needed.
However, on the T-Mobile S6, if you receive a text within that 2 minute window, the phone will unlock itself to whatever screen you had locked it on. The phone will completely bypass the lock screen from standby, and display a new message notification on whatever screen it was last on. This is incredibly frustrating as sometimes I respond to a text, put my phone in my pocket and sometimes ignore new messages. And if those messages get to me within 2 minutes, I often end up pocket dialing them if I chose to ignore my phone. While I know that seems like an odd and specific scenario, its pretty common for me at work, and is the reason why every other Samsung S6 defaults to a "swipe" type lock screen to prevent that from happening.
I work a a major electronics department store, in the mobile department. Although we do not offer T-Mobile phones, I personally have a T-Mobile S6. I have never seen an AT&T or VZW S6 do this.
Any other T-Mobile S6 users noticed this?
I'm running lmy48i rooted. Project fi the whole time.
My phone is randomly, not duplicatably, unlocking itself in my pocket, or as I'm holding it. It's not a power button issue, as much as i want it to be. Ambient display is off
I've pulled the phone from my pocket with it unlocked in camera mode, having taken numerous pictures, no on screen buttons working because it's not "unlocked". I've picked up my phone and it unlock itself straight to the home screen, with a good 5 second lag before the lockscreen kicks in.
This happens with a pin code lock also.
I don't want to have to factory reset, as I'd rather pinpoint the problem in case it is indeed something I've done, so i don't replicate it after a reset and still have the problem.
Anybody have any ideas what i could look at for this? It's not always been this way, but it's so random, i can't pinpoint any changes or programs that i have that would be causing it.
I've searched my heart out, but all my searches come up with other related things and I've not seen any one with this specific issue

Settings -> Security -> Smart Lock -> enter your pin -> On-body detection -> turn that crap off.
Personally, I use Trusted devices (BT smartwatch,) and can understand Trusted places. But I don't know who'd want to keep their device unlocked when it's being carried around, possibly by a thief.
Tried that also. I tried toggling it on for a while then back off to see if maybe that'd jog some setting, but it hasn't fixed the issue.
I've even disabled smart lock altogether to see if that would work, and it hasn't.
Edit
I've only recently enabled pin lock to make sure i wasn't in fact leg-unlocking my phone through my pants. But enabling pin lock, smart unlock or not, hasn't changed the situation.

Hi - I am sure that I shot myself in the foot here somehow.
I have a problem where I don't get any sort of display now when receiving a phone call. The phone rings, but the display stays black, Even if I unlock the phone, there isn't the standard "Slide to Answer" phone call display.
Can someone help me isolate what I changed? I was trying to block an annoying (and totally useless) green caller id pop-up box that kept appearing. I guess I was too successful in the blocking.
Thanks,
¿GJ?

Have you rooted your phone and tried installing any dialer? This issue can occur if your call ui app is corrupted when trying to flash Google Dialer or some other dialer app or other customisations like enabling recording.
Either that or a screen protection that's tricking the phone near sensor into believing it's still near the ear.
Dirty flash your rom to cover any apps that is creating the issue.
