20kb storage, (up to) 200kb free RAM (on a WVGA device, so less on smaller resolutions)

AutoCallLocker is a pocket pc software for automatic locking and unlocking while in a call. The app utilizes the light sensor and accelerometer to work and was designed for the Samsung Omnia so it might not work on other devices.
Developers Instructions :
Just install the added .cab file.
Then start the application. Now it should start with a settings screen (as you see in the capture).
Now, you can select which sensor you’d like to use for detecting when to lock/unlock.
Note that locking/unlocking is only influenced while in a call.
For the accelerator you may select a value between 0 (horizontal) and 90 degrees (vertical).
Above the device will lock the screen (when you have your omnia pressed to your head), below it will unlock.
When using the light sensor, you can set a value between 0 (no light) and 100 (max intensity of light).
Again the screen will lock below the threshold (if it is dark), above it will unlock.
Another nice goodie, is the always unlock feature. When set, the device will always be be unlocked in a call.
This is nice when you have placed the device for example in a cradle.
The last feature is an obvious one: Load on system start.
Note with this one set, the application is send to the background immediately after startup, although noticable for a short moment.
Note also that when this option is set, and you close and restart AutoCallLocker, it will also go to the background.
If you restart again, AutoCallLocker will stay maximized, so you can change its settings.
TouchLockPro is a general purpose locking application for Windows Mobile devices. TouchLockPro is designed not to interfere with running applications and is a multipurpose locking application. Other locking solutions are often specific for locking only incoming calls/SMS. A lot of locking solutions also place a (transparant looking) Window on top of the running application (e.g. slide 2 unlock), so the information of the background application is no longer visible. This is not the case for TouchLockPro, so it can be kept lean and mean. Also the used resources is very very low.
Version 2.7.4 (26-9-2009):
* Fixed serious problem, that TouchLockAction would no longer start after reset to defaults.
Version 2.7.4 (26-9-2009) now for all Windows Mobile phones with TouchScreen:
* Fixed G-Alarm support: Added small TouchLockAction.exe program in \Windows for backwards compatibility
* Suspend when bluetooth on and at end call
* No longer register keys, because reported side-effect
* TAPI LINE_APPNEWCALL: only handle as incoming call when it is a voice or speech call
* Do not log keyboard registry key as error in logging
* Log also command as error when CreateProcess fails
* No longer do a power off request, when only the screen goes off
* Reintroduced EnableInputAtSuspend, for people who want the power button locked when power off in combination with HTCLockAPI = 1
* No longer enable input at suspend, only in combination with setting HTCLockAPI = 1 and EnableInputAtSuspend = 1
* Added !TOUCHLOCKACTION command
* Debug logging now also prepends the date in the log file, for easier investigation
