You can download an automatic keylock program. Just google Nokia 6682 freeware, or Symbian freeware and look for a program called "Autolock". All you have to do once you install it is set an inactivity time and the keys automatically lock. It works great, no more accidental calls made from your pocket.

U need to speed up your finger movements buddy. Try doing it quick. It works fine for me !!

it's actually very easy ~ on the right side of the phone is the power button. if you hit that once, a whole menu pops up, and two of the options are a) lock keys and b) lock phone (you have to create a code) ~ if you want more info, just check the manual under "key lock" : ) hope this helps!!

The user guide's suggestion that you mention works on mine, as long as I do it quickly, but the way I usually do it is is by pressing the power button (right side) twice and then holding it down a third time. You'll see a menu pop up and other options appear...

It is set with AT&T; and you can get a code that will allow you to go anywhere with this device. But most customers will need to pay for that code. Cingular is no more so it may be unlocked already we just do not know. But all AT&T; phones are able to be unlocked.

If I remember correctly, holding the * key for a second or two locks the keypad. It's mentioned in the user manual.

Are you able to see a few shapes at the bottom left of the screen? If you're able to push the Iittle house shape and slide the screen and look for the Settings button. It will be on the page where you can Power off the tablet. Under Security you have a choice if you want to set a password with numbers or letters. There's no way the tablet sets its own password. Sounds like someone got a hold of your tablet. There's no possible way to do this in error. Good luck! BTW, emailing the company with any questions will get you no response unfortunately.

Mine does not. To lock it, I simply touch the "schlage" icon on the outside touchpad when I leave. The unit then locks and it flashes a green check mark to confirm that it successfully locked. Possibly, there is a mode to have it lock automatically, not sure though.

You need to go to *Settings*--Then *Phone Settings*--then scroll to *Auto Keypad Lock*---Click OK and look for the choice that says OFF. I never have mine ON cuz I don't carry it around in my pocket. Good Luck!

the button between the call and end buttons should launch the browser.if not...go to Settings/Options/Screen Keyboardand scroll downthere will be a "front convenience key opens" option. You can change what is opened by changing the options there.Good Luck

well if I understand the quest: the screen saver/ho,e page should show that till u unlock the phone with either preset unlock seq/choice that user sets up in settings.on the one I had i choose the "swipe lock" which u run your finger across screen-left-right or right to lft-it didn't seem to matter-so swipe across screen if that 1 u cjhose it will unlock-I chose that 1 becz i always disliked to have to unlock screen to do anything,but then w/i 30 sec it locked again//so this 1 mde it easy to unlock and get back to biz,instead of an excessive pw or #sequence to have to input ech time(#$^%$). So that 1 was the best choivce for me-i don't think that by default it locks up w/o the user setting it up-hoped,ist of all that this helped if it was locked//I look again at the screen shot it shows the screen saver up-but if was unlocked i would see something of control mechanisms;like apps nxt button menu settings i don't see anything in your screenshot showing that,and as i remember that was shown when unlocked. Hope this helps and if wrong answer,then ( "I sorry").but seriously.....that's what i remember about the 1 I had for such brief operating timeframe.

Do you go to the setting to change the keyboard? I could not find updates of some of the apps i.e. HW Hearts (the playing card game). I wanted to uninstall and reinstall but could not find on Android market or Lenovo Apps market.Thanks,

To unlock this phone press and hold the star/lock button down in the left hand corner until u phone unlock in display.The phone will automatically lock when not used after a few second and then u have to unlock again using the info above,but I think that if u go to menu scroll to settings and select, scroll to security and select, and scroll to phone lock and select, u will see on and off, high light off and select, and your phone won't automatically lock again.

Hi unfortunately I did get the Verizon lock screen and could not figure out how to get around it so I returned the product.

I never had a "locked" keypad so I'm not sure what you mean. Pressing the red (hang up) key brings you "Home", and pressing the center large navigation key opens the menu.

This is Phillip, I really like the 2-- ways When you push and hold the lock key it will beep and from that point on it will not go from one channel to another, it stays on the channel you chose or had it on before you locked it. You can unlock it and change channels whenever you like. It kind of helps you to not have to keep going back to the channel you find works best for you. Hope this helps a little Have a good one Phillip E from Pauls Valley Ok

When you pick up the phone from the "hook" the keypad is on the inside of the handle. In other words you have to have the phone in your hand to dial. That makes sense because you have to have the phone in your hand to talk.

No. It gives 2 choices both of which use either one button or a combination of 2 buttons to unlock. The phone chooses the buttons for you. Not a combo setting so not very secure. I have never pocket called anyone so it is effective at guarding buttons, but kids depending on age may figure it out by accident only using a 2 button combo. Great basic phone with no data auto charge. Good performance talking and texting through Verizon. Its been dropped several times and keeps working.
