Screen time out setting keeps clearing out. Not sure what's going on.
Edit: Screen will not time out with persistent mode not enabled. I'm trying in persistent mode now.
I had this problem myself. I was tinkering with my theme in the phone, so I probably reset it 4 or 5 times over the course of an hour. Eventually it decided to stick, and I fortunately haven't had the problem since. It definitely could have been something I was doing though, as I was poking around in my phone's naughty areas (aka the system folder).
I had quite a few problems with A3 0204. First, I guess I should say, I am using a custom 2.01 ROM (AdamZ's Smoked Glass 4.1 currently) which I have overclocked (950max 250 min). I believe the 250mhz causes problems for myLock A3. I haven't tried A1, but in A2, I have none of these issues.
First when I tap the unlock button sometimes the screen won't come on, only the 4 phone buttons (back, menu, home, search). I can lock and unlock again, and it works on the second try. But if I hit one of the lit up buttons, specifically the home button, it enables the screen and takes me back to my phone. For some reason, this seems to disable myLock. Meaning the next unlock will have to be a slide to unlock. If I hit the camera button, the same thing happens, unlocks the 4 phone buttons but doesn't enable the screen. If I hit the home button, after I hit the camera button, I get my home screen, but myLock pulls a disappearing act. The icon in the notification bar, says "lock screen is disabled" but it lies.
Second problem, the screen times out way too fast sometimes. The screen times out in about 3 seconds or so sometimes. It used to happen with Alpha1 or Alpha2c when I would unlock, then not hit something right away, which is fine. But this happens even if I am hitting things sometimes. As an example, I had to update a couple programs in market, I clicked on notifications, then the updates available icon. Market loads up, and I click on one of the ones I needed to update to see it's description page. Between the time I clicked on it, and it loaded up (should have been less than 5 seconds), the screen timed out. I had this happen with the 2.1 Weather and News Widget too, when I was reading a news article.
In settings there is no option selected for screen timeout, after the installation of this, which I assume is what is attributed to this. If I change it to a time seems to fix it, but sometimes the option gets flushed somehow. I haven't figured out if it is because I am resetting myLock (due to the disabling problem above).
Third, this one is minor, I am not a fan of the notification icon. Not the art of it, I just don't feel there is a need for a myLock icon up there. Alpha1 didn't have one, and Alpha2c had an option to disable it if I remember right. My notification bar can become quite busy sometimes, especially if I am away from my phone for a while, the less that is up there the better. I like to quickly glance up there and see if I have texts, e-mails, missed calls, voice mails, the important stuff. I definitely can live with an icon though if it is necessary.
I am back to Alpha 2c, as it still runs great and I have no issues. I don't run a task manager, I also don't use any apps that mess with screen settings, like keepscreen or screebl. Obviously this all could have just been coincidence, and I was doing something wrong elsewhere, which is probably the case since I am often times a moron.
I am really glad this app has hit the market. This app is still one of my top5 favorite apps.
There's also a myLockLite version on the developers webpage linked in the first post. It's a lil different but I think the developer is planning on integrating some of the functionality of the Lite version into alpha C to create a final release
