Hi Javier Thanks again for your reply. I think I'm going to have to admit defeat on this one though as I just don't have any other options under my Screen Security tab other than type of screen lock. Perhaps there are more options on the larger S5 rather than the Mini. I also tried googling...

No need to apologise at all, I much appreciate you taking the time. My lock screen settings literally only give me the option to change the lock screen type (and adjust if the camera is accessible on the lock screen) otherwise there are no other options that I can find anywhere. Have also...

Hi again Javier, and thanks for persevering! I can't see anything obvious in my Security settings that would allow me to select the power button to lock my phone, but I'd you can direct me any further that sounds exactly what I need. (I have headings such as Encryption, Find My Mobile (do you...

Hi Javier The thing is, I don't always want my screen to be locked, and when I do want to lock it I have to go through the Sertings set-up and then use the power button to lock it. Sorry, it's late in the UK and I'm being stupid, you are quite right - of course that I can quickly unlock the...

Hi Javier P Apologies if I was unclear. Yes, I'm after a quick way to lock my screen and unlock it from my home screen. At the moment I have to go into Settings / Lock Screen / set screen lock to password/finger print etc backup and then activate the lock screen with the right side button. TIA :)

Hi All Is there a quick key / shortcut for activating / deactivating the lock screen rather than having to go through the Settings palava each time? TIA :)

Thanks for your helpful reply, Rukbat. It's my own domain name which is hosted with a third party company with POP3 emails addresses. I could change the setting to delete from server on my phone but if I did and accessed them first on my phone (and then deleted them) they would then be available...

Hi All Hope you can help. Just purchased an S5 mini as my S4 met a watery death. Had previously been waiting for the S6 mini but who knows if that's ever going to surface in the UK and I had to move now after Water-gate. Anyhoo, am trying to keep my mails tidier this time without the constant...

Thanks so much B Diddy for helping with these two points. Am just looking at the Tasker app you suggested and will need to try and get my head around the techie areas. Boy, this Android world is different to the Blackberry one! Thanks again, and if anything springs to mind on the other...

Hi Everyone First post so please be kind and also please don't chastise too quickly when I tell you I've come from a Crackberry (well, at least I finally saw the light PLUS didn't go to the Dark Side of the Iphone!). Other than finding this whole typing-on-glass malarky a bit odd, am loving...
