Hi all...

I applied this upgrade (the *#0000# commnand confirmed it). After that I noticed a most annoying change - the phone either doesn't lock itself at all (when I set both keypad and phone autolock to none), or applies both the keypad lock and the phone autolock, even if I set the keypad lock to None and only the phone autolock to some period. Its cumbersome because one has to go through two unlocking procedures to unlock the phone...!  first the "Now press function key" and then the secret lock code...

the bug is that the E71 ignores the "none" option in the "keypad lock" option whenever the phone autolock option is set too. Before the upgrade, it didn't. 

Many thanks

i don't use the phone lock feature at all so i don't know if this behaviour was the same with the previous firmware version. i have tried it just now and yes you have to press the function key before entering the phone lock code. that is not the key lock function. i have set the key lock function to off. so it seems that pressing the function key before entering the phone lock code is the normal behaviour of the phone lock function. or at least it does it on my phone.

try and have both key lock and phone lock functions on and you will see the difference.

Thanks for your response.. with my phone there is no difference between having both phone lock and keypad lock on and having just phone lock on. That's the problem... the phone only takes notice of my setting in keypad lock if, and only if, phone lock is set to off... very strange.

To clarify-setting phone lock on also turns keypad lock on (even if the settings menu interface its set to off, then the setting 'lies'). I want to turn on ONLY phone lock... in the old firmware it would do so.
