hi

i am sending some files from mobile to PC via bluetooth.
During that send operation i want to completely block keypad inputs.

i used pykeylock, it still gives user chance to unlock by pressing left soft key and *.

i dont want that....
so what are the options???

Hi Girish,

Whenever the Keypad is locked, you can unlock by pressing the left-soft-key and the * key. So far, there are no extensions in PyS60 that allow you to completely lock the keypad, and disable the unlock mechanism.

hi Girish,
As Pankaj said there is no extension to completely disable the unlock mechanism.
However you can continuously check the the keypad locking status in loop and lock it as soon as someone unlocks it.
It is not the best way but still may work for you.

ok thanks Pankaj and ck.umraliya,

But one thing , Can i hide "Unlock" option on screen, so that user will not get any intimation that he can unlock.

By using uitricks we can only change labels till canvas level. But when we go for any inbuile attribute..e.g. Listbox,forms,multiselection list,even appuifw.note ...etc. We have to work with by default options coming with that attribute.

uitricks does not override these options...
i think you are getting what i am trying to say,...

so please reply what can i do now????thanks for reply in advance

As far as i know you cannot do it with PyS60.

You can change labels of these objects using appuifw2 module

i think you are getting what i am trying to say,...

I hope i got your meaning...

there is no such code
for unlocking without user interaction

and

"Don't allow your energy to be drained away by worrying about
what others will think. Simply be your authentic best, and keep in mind that what anyone else thinks about you is not your concern."

your signature statement is realy very good.

Well, that's just not true: This wiki article explains how.

And this article tells you where to get misty and how to sign it.

Enjoy!

hey friends,

actually whats happening,

i am sending file from mobile to PC.
the time between

socket.bt_obex_send_file("address",channel,path)

command and next

appuifw.note(u"please wait...","info")

is too large.. so that if i press any keys between this operation
my application gets interrupted and gives access to previous definition menus.

so it creates an additional LOG as in previous definition selection list present it again makes selection and jumps to send function once again.

so that i want to lock keypad atall.
only it should get unlock with program command.

please help

Hi Girish
Just an idea why dont you take whole of your application into background just when your file transfer starts.
I feel then your problem will be solved.

hi gaba,
thanks...
ya if i am sending application to background then its ok..

But still what i want that, user should not have access to other functions of mobile rather than my application.

what are available options in python to do so.
i want to block/lock/password protect/hide other applications.

waiting for your reply...
this point is very imp for me...
please help...
thanks again very much

hi girish

your demand is bit high and the only way seems is locking the whole keypad which you tried earlier.
I feel you cant make all the applications stop or even hide because some powers are with the users that cant be changed.

Hope you got my point.
Enjoy Pythoning
