A Common Complaint: This patch doesn't work for me on a Spanish Pre updated to 1.3.1. After applying it, the Screen & Lock application display the new option and doesn't allow to change the "Secure unblock" and "brightness" properties. On an imported German o2 device in Switzerland I get the same behaviour as described above with 1.3.1.
And the answer to it: A localized application has localized versions of the HTML files. Now when you change the English version only, and the Spanish or German version is displayed, the following happens: Not only will you not see the changes (that is the obvious part), the JavaScript adding a listener to blinkAlerts will not find that element and throw, thereby failing to initialize the page. The solution is to modify /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.screenlock/resources/de_de/views/securityconfig/securityconfig-scene.html instead (for each language besides de_de ideally).

This patch needs a rooted Pre to manually make these changes though a command line.

Two files need to be modified.

/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.screenlock/app/controllers/securityconfig-assistant.js

Uncomment lines 54,55,248-251 (291-294 on 1.3.1).

Here is what the files should look like: <source lang=text> Lines 54/55: //this.controller.setupWidget('blinkAlerts', this.onOffToggleOpt, this.ledThrobberToggleModel); //Mojo.Event.listen($('blinkAlerts'),'mojo-property-change', this.toggleLEDThrobber.bindAsEventListener(this));

Should be changed to: this.controller.setupWidget('blinkAlerts', this.onOffToggleOpt, this.ledThrobberToggleModel); Mojo.Event.listen($('blinkAlerts'),'mojo-property-change', this.toggleLEDThrobber.bindAsEventListener(this)); </source>

<source lang=text> Lines 248-251 (291-294 in webOS 1.3.1):

               /*if (payload.LEDThrobberEnabled != undefined) {

this.ledThrobberToggleModel.value = payload.LEDThrobberEnabled; this.controller.modelChanged(this.ledThrobberToggleModel, this); }*/

Should be changed to:

               if (payload.LEDThrobberEnabled != undefined) {

this.ledThrobberToggleModel.value = payload.LEDThrobberEnabled; this.controller.modelChanged(this.ledThrobberToggleModel, this); }

</source>

/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.screenlock/app/views/securityconfig/securityconfig-scene.html:

Uncomment 92-97 and 101-103 (97-102 and 106-108 in webOS 1.3.1).

<source lang=text> Lines 92-97 (97-102 in 1.3.1):

Should be changed to:

Blink notifications

</source>

<source lang=text> Lines 101-103 (106-108 in 1.3.1):

Should be changed to:

The gesture area blinks when new notifications arrive.
