S2U2 is a simple lock/unlock application which has the iPhone style slide unlocking. It can be used as a screensaver while you don't use your device.
S2U2 is the new version of Slide2Unlock because the old one is a RAM hunger and running it at Landscape mode caused a lot of troubles. So the author started to rewrite the whole thing in C++... and, here it is the new born baby - S2U2. As a new start, this is the most basic version, i.e. it does not have the Caller ID, unread xxx notifications, etc...
Installation:
- If you have Slide2Unlock installed, please uninstall it first & then soft-reset.
- After installation, there are 3 shortcuts created under Program FilesS2U2:
* iLock2.lnk - start/stop ilock2.exe (on the 1st run, it runs silently in the background; on the 2nd run, it closes iLock2 & S2U2)
* s2u2.lnk - manually start S2U2 (be sure iLock2 is running in the background, otherwise the Battery status will not be updated).
* s2u2 Settings.lnk - change the settings of S2U2.
- A shortcut for iLock2.exe is created automatically under "WindowsStartUp" as well.
- Installation on Storage Card is not supported (for the sake of stability).
- For hi-res devices, d/l the S2U2ClockPack.rar & follow the steps in the ClockReadme.txt. Otherwise the clock will be shown as half-sized.
- For additional clock fonts, d/l the S2U2ClockPack.rar & follow the steps in the ClockReadme.txt.
- For non-English devices, d/l the S2U2LanguagePack.rar; extract your language's ini file; rename it to lang.ini; copy to the S2U2 installed folder; restart iLock2.
Language Pack (Afrikaans, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Macedonian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese BR, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish & Turkish) Most of them are still not completed yet. Read the LangReadme.txt for the changes. Please let me know if you can complete them.
Configuration: (in the Registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareA_CS2U2. Please remember to RESTART iLock2 after any registry settings changed, otherwise it won't work):
- Use the "s2u2 Settings.exe" to change the settings.
- Through the lang.ini, the default values of DateFormat, TimeFormat, AppointmentTimeFormat, PhoneNoFormat, Wallpaper(Protrait & Landscape) & ClockPath can be customised. They are s_DefaultDateFormat, s_DefaultTimeFormat, s_DefaultAptTimeFormat, s_DefaultPhoneNoFormat, s_DefaultWallpaper(L) & s_DefaultClockPath.
- For advanced users, you can edit the registry directly. The default values are added on the first run of iLock2:
Autostart=1
IdleStart=0
OffLCD=17
