Be 5.99 worth spending. You'll use it for way more than that! Think it goes without saying Ti is a must have app.

I'd just freeze phone.apk and dialer tab activity. Shouldn't cause any problems.
If you take your sim card out, he won't be able to make calls right?

[Q] Launcher that allows locking to one screen

I have a 3 y/o grandson who loves playing games on my Atrix. Unfortunately he has discovered the camera and other things and has wandered into my contacts.
I use LauncherPro but have not been able to find a way to lock him to just one screen. Is there another launcher with this feature?
I like LauncherPro and don't want to use something else, but would if it didn't suck too much and had this feature.
There are several apps that alow you to password lock other apps, you can pick and choose which ones.
Thanks for the thought, but I was looking for a more general solution.

Just get data defender and lock all the apps you don't want people to get into with the fingerprint scanner?

Titanium was great
Upon restoring you have to choose to install each app during the process but that's fine, a lot faster than installing from Market ^^
Titanium backup,choose backup my apps ,and then "tick" app only from menu and press GO!!

I prefer the AOSP phone app myself, but why remove one at all? Just use Titanium Backup to freeze which ever one you don't want to use. That way if a problem comes up with the phone app you choose to keep, you can unfreeze the other.
Cheers!
