I know we can lock the phone by pressing the end button, which turns-off the screen and locks the phone.
The problem i have is,i want to be able to unlock the phone "only" by using touch screen, by dragging the HTC curve-bar on the lock screen. This works but the real problem is you can also unlock by pressing the Menu button twice in succession.
Is there any way to stop the unlocking via Menu button ?
I've messed around with remapping hardkey actions via this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695936
Short answer: no, you will always need some button to initially turn on the screen on before you can swipe it, and by default whatever hardkey is assigned the MENU action will also unlock the phone with a subsequent press. If you want, you could edit your heroc-keypad.kl and remove "WAKE_DROPPED" from the line
key 107 ENDCALL WAKE_DROPPED
That way pressing the end button will lock your screen but won't turn it back on, leaving you with only the menu button to turn on the screen.
the new "fresh 2.3.3" rom has that perk.
I have a small problem with my xperia Z.
I cannot lock the screen.
I can unlock the screen though. Tapping on the power button after its unlocked opens the power off menu. Sometimes clicking the volume up button locks the screen. (sometimes)
Any suggestions?

which lock are you using?
Pattern?
Face?
Password?
And you can set time when lock it after pressing power button
Settings>Security>Automatically Lock>Immediately after sleep
or Power button instantly lock
It's it possible to remove the emergency call button on stock, rooted FW lock screen?
Hello
Is there a way to take a screenshot out of the locked screen? either with any security mode as pattern or slide security? tried 'Power + Vol down' but nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated.
i have a security code enabled and the power+volume down worked for me
hi I am just using Huawei p30 pro, power button locks the screen and then to unlock the screen i set face recognition,PIN code and finger print. All of them perfectly work, My problem is that, while the screen in locked mode, whenever I press power button it instantly unlocks the screen without asking face recognition,PIN code and finger print .
I want to disable the function of unlocking screen by just pressing power keys.
all the best

Hi, try checking if you have Smart Lock enabled (there are three options - on-body detection, places and devices). If it's enabled, for example, to unlock based on palces, then by default it will always unlock when you're home
Thanks alot but smart lock option is disabled.
Thanks a lot but smart lock is disabled.
Face recognition is enabled by default on power button press, you can't change this option.
Only possible to disable face recognition, then it will ask for fingerprint if registered, else will ask for pin code.
