Application: TalkLock App Locks screen while calling

I was having a problem with my Blackberry Storm, while on a call I always pressed with my cheek something on the Storm’s screen, I ended in the web browser, messaging, calendar etc… Since the Storm does not have a proximity sensor to know when the user is speaking, the screen does not lock and we always end up pressing something  we don’t mean to that takes us to other apps that waste our time.

But this problem is solved! A company called CellAvant developed an application called TalkLock. TalkLock does exactly what its name says, it locks the screen while you talk so you don’t end in other apps. I tried it  myself and worked pretty well, and luckly for us, CellAvant decided that TalkLock is going to be a completely free application!! So you can go ahead and download it by clicking the link above, remember this is an OTA (Over The Air) installation and you have to use your Storm to click over the link below, don’t use your PC because it won’t recogize the file. If you have  problems with the installation just leave a comment and we’ll help you! Download TalkLock for Blackberry Storm

Update: Is not free anymore!

    I was really excited about this app when I saw it because the mute button is a problem for me and also the speaker button. The app starts out great and then disappears after a few minutes. I see you guys are having this same experience. Does anyone know how to get it to work throughout an entire phone call??  If so, please help.. Thanks

    How do you uninstall this?

    Go options>AdvancedSettings>Applications. Highlight the app and press BB Menu button then delete. Restart the Phone.

    Why would you anyway? Just curious.

    is there any way that i can download from pc?

  12. Edward Umana Says:

    You can’t this are OTA applications, but they are WAY easier than PC installations. Why would you want to install with PC?

    In order to delete the VM message, I have to get to the keypad, but if the screen is locked, how do you get that keyboard to come back up?

    You guys keep advertising Talk Lock as Free and
    it’s not.. This is Bait and Switch, which is against
    the law.. Please do not advertise free products
    or services that are not.. If you continue we will
    post on BS Web Site..

  23. Edward Umana Says:

    Sorry Alex, the thing is that when it was released it was free, seems now is not. We updated the post, thanks!
