When the device is off during a call the end key will always end the call despite any screen lock programs (this is by design of the OS). Also, keep in mind that I have not yet figured out how to let windows underneath mine update while I have the screen locked. So while it may say the call is connected, it may have actually ended. You must unlock to see. Do you think end key should always be unlocked? May be hard to do. What does everyone else think?

And news that MSVC works while locked. There is an included exe with this app called "unlock.exe". Try telling MSVC to unlock, and it should work. Now you can unlock with VC.

Let me clear up the MS VC 1.6.. While I have my bt headset on I can use voice dial via my bt button while the device is lock with your app. Just like with the built in lock program.
I never use MS VC via a button on the phone just my BT headset button.

I just tested the end call button again.

I called my phone and answered it fine while locked and then I hit the power button which turned the phone off but the call was still active. I then hit the end button to end the call and it just powered the device on stating it was still locked and it did not end the call.

I think the end button should be unlocked during a phone call at least. unless its easier to keep the end button unlocked the entire time. I have no idea so I'm just saying

I don't mind the screen not updating behind your app as long as I have the time and date which your app provides. If I need anything other info from my phone ill just unlock it.
