Thank you very much, it works great !!! :)

But I have another problem, when i'm connecting to my board, i'm not ROOT on the android shell, there is a way to have root rights ?

Hi,

you can set your application category to HOME and replace the default Launcher.

 To disable the lock screen you will need to toggle the Settings.System.LOCKSCREEN_DISABLED value in the settings database.

You can achieve this by:

1. hacking the DatabaseHelper.java in framework/base/...

2. edit the settings.db on the device in data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases

3. Create a java app at the launches with a system permission at the first start and changes the

default settings for the lock screen.

1.-2. can be a quick dirty-hack but number 3 is strongly advised ;)

Hi,

I'm working on porting Android on a board and I want to modifiy the "booting sequence".
In facts I want to disable/remove the lock screen when Android is finished to boot and I want to start an application automatically.

I don't find in frameworks/base/services/... where I have to modify the code to starting on application directly without the lock screen ?

More if I want that the screen never locked, I read that I have to modify the timeout but in which file, IPowerManager.cpp ?

Thank you !

You need to replace "user shell" with "user root". take a look on Android's init language.

Hi Alex,

Hacking the database or starting application with permissions is not a good way.

You can boot with unlocked screen by changing in AOSP in file.

You can take reference of this link for required changes http://www.omappedia.com/wiki/Android_How-tos#Booting_with_Unlocked_Screen

Moreover, To start your application You can remove the default Launcher application from APK and put you application to HOME application. So system will start your application directly.

I think it is enough to update the following value in SettingsProvider: 

<bool name="def_lockscreen_disabled">false</bool>

in frameworks/base/packages/SettingsProvider/res/values/defaults.xml

Dan
