change "hold" home key on Sansa Clip+ to "Lock"
« on: January 27, 2011, 08:45:31 PM »
Hello.

After a recent firmware upgrade of the Sansa Clip+ (Sansa Clip Plus), holding the home key button down now locks out the hardware buttons. I love this new feature.

But how can I make this also happen on Rockbox?

Rockbox has had a software hold for a while. I think it's Play + Select on the Clip+

 llorean,
Yes, you are right. But it takes two fingers (or even 2 hands). I prefer to use just one finger. Can we customize the "hold-home-key" function?

Feel free to edit the source code, but there's no way to do it inside Rockbox.

But as a note, in situations where keys might accidentally be pressed it's significantly more likely that a single key will be held down for a bit than two keys.

Meanwhile, Long Home already performs a function.

Seems i can't lock the screen while holding the home button. How do i make it work?

I believe all the key maps are in the manual.

Unfortunately the clip information is not available anymore...  :( But at least it does not skip on its own because of accidental button presses. Thank you for the info.
