Actually Wi-Lo sounds really cool=)

Re: [Request/Idea] enable "secure device" lock based on wifi network

Decided to use my friend's idea ConnLock.

I haven't uploaded it to extras-devel, because I want to fix couple things first, but here is .deb:
http://hosted.laasonen.net/connlock_0.1.0-1_all.deb

There is something really strange about osso-systemui. Power button menu randomly stops working. I first thought it was just my shell script which was directly reading pwrbutton, but it's now happening with my python/dbus version :( Is it just me? Any suggestions?

Added it again, but there is a problem with osso-systemui (read my last post).

Excuse me if I'm misunderstanding anything, but instead of watching to see if the power button is pressed and then calling the SystemUI D-Bus method that unlocks the device, why not just disable locking when a selected network is connected to and then re-enable it when the device disconnects?

You can turn off the autolock by changing the value of GConf key /system/osso/dsm/locks/devicelock_autolock_enabled

^^

Easily done using /etc/network/if-up.d/ and watching iwconfig for the associating SSID.

The python version is using dbus, but the idea is the same:

Code:

self.bus.add_signal_receiver(self.unlock, path='/com/nokia/mce/signal', dbus_interface='com.nokia.mce.signal', signal_name='tklock_mode_ind')

Tried it and at least this doesn't open it, when it's already locked:

Code:

gconftool -s -t bool /system/osso/dsm/locks/devicelock_autolock_enabled false

So if you you lock your device when you are at work for example and then you go home, it will ask the password when you open it.

I have been testing the dbus devlock_close call more.

If I lock the device with dbus like this:

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.system_ui /com/nokia/system_ui/request com.nokia.system_ui.request.devlock_open string:"com.nokia.mce" string:"/com/nokia/mce/request" string:"com.nokia.mce.request" string:"devlock_callback" uint32:'3'

And then unlock it like this:

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.system_ui /com/nokia/system_ui/request com.nokia.system_ui.request.devlock_close string:"com.nokia.mce" string:"/com/nokia/mce/request" string:"com.nokia.mce.request" string:"devlock_callback" uint32:'0'

Everything works great, but when I lock it with the power button menu and then use dbus to unlock, the power button menu stops working, until I use dbus to lock it again and then open it with password. Could someone confirm this?

I can't confirm this as I have no N900, but you can enable D-Bus eavesdropping and see if anything different happens when locking from the menu

Re: [Request/Idea] enable "secure device" lock based on wifi network

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.devlock_callback int32:2

That will make MCE tell SystemUI to close the keypad on n8x0 and should do the same on n900, might have to change the 2 to a 0 though. You will still need to toggle the gconf value to keep the keypad from opening when the timeout expires.

Works, thanks a lot :)
