Popular XDA member, A_C, has released an update to his screen locking app, S2U2. Aside from locking/unlocking your device, S2U2 can be used as a screen saver, caller ID, notifier, battery gauge and more. In this version, an added feature that I’m interested in is the option to mark an already previewed SMS/Email as “read,” which I’ve been awaiting for a while now. There are also several bug fixes, so be sure to upgrade now. Below is a complete list of recent changes.

Changes of v2.04

- changed option “Auto-dismiss Notification” to “Dismiss a Notification once it’s been viewed”.
- fixed “Country/Region Code” could not be more than 255.
- fixed ignore call might not work ocassionally.
- fixed caller name might be shown wrong ocassionally.
- added option to turn off InCall Volume Control.

Changes of v2.03
