I hope this isn't an inappropriate new thread...

My intention is to compile a list of REASONABLE things people would like to see be possible or available on the 8125 that could maybe even be used by cingular/htc or app developers to fulfill some of the wishes that happy 8125 users have for the device.

What made me think of starting this was my wish for a couple simple thing to improve stylus-free use of the phone interface.

1. Ability to lock/unlock without touching the screen (ie mapping a button combination or sequence to perform this duty)

2. Ability to better navigate the contacts interface using the D-Pad - more like using the tab button instead of a mouse on a PC.
What i'd really like is to be able to select one of the alphabetic tabs (abc, def, etc.) at the top of the screen using D-Pad and center button.

I'm sure I have more, hope others will add.

for #1, just press the pwr button once briefly. That turns off the screen and locks the buttons. It still rings and/or wakes up for reminders, etc.

yea.. but if the screen wakes up (an alert comes up), the thing is back to the usual. and untill it locks again , the buttons are fair game. keep it in the puch, and there is a 99% chance that it will call your last called.

try MortSaver (sorry, no link), pretty good.. map it to a button just wont set automaticaly.
