However the same problem is that this is OS level feature that I dont believe is fixable much less desireable for more than one reason.
================================================== ========


Man, WTF!!! Screen Timeout...
The above post was from a guy just not knowing what he was doing with the phone... You will notice he hasn't made another post in this forum...
Sure he change his settings and hopefully did a power off and reboot ....

I had checked the entire forum for people describing the problem/desired feature you have described .... before I made my post ... so your pointing out two unrelated posts that I had already reviewed stills does not change the fact that no one before you has requested this feature here in this forum ...

To bypass the OS pattern-locking feature a dev would have to:
1.) write their own locking system and then make a toggle like you desire.
2.) or maintain the pattern-locking system and programatically disabling/enabling it ... which is not likely ... because I think you might have to enter the pattern to make those changes... (could be wrong about this).

If the dev of AutoLock can do a toggle On/Off that might work .. but even his program still uses the pattern-lock system (which seems to be your main hang-up).

I dont think there is a solution to your exact needs... unless google adds and alternative locking system to choose from.... ???? don't hold your breath on that happening ...
