I know, with recent updates, double tap the power key will lock the device at once. But I prefer to do it via touch screen. It's easy to make a .desktop file, just I need a command for device lock and blank the screen.

I found the app Lock Device in Warehouse that does exactly what I want.
It uses the command sh -c "dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.nemomobile.lipstick /devicelock org.nemomobile.lipstick.devicelock.setState int32:1 & dbus-send --system --dest=com.nokia.mce --print-reply --type="method_call" /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_display_state_off", but since I've had Ubuntu and seen gnome tools I think there should be simpler commands for that.
@AliNa, I don't quite understand what do you mean by lipstick process changiing name... at least nothing like that happens when you send the dbus message to it. Maybe the LockDevice application does something else strangeness?
Now, if it only would be possible to unlock the device using reverse of the dbus command :)
juiceme ( 2015-07-10 12:28:01 +0200 )edit@juiceme, ok, you're right. Please let me rephrase: after using the Lock Device app, Memory app shows the lipstick process as Lock Device. I tried also Crest and Lighthouse; these two show the process correctly.
Lock Device app can't do anything, it's just an icon and a .desktop file which runs the command. So it may be the Memory app bug in getting the process names; e.g. getting the names from .desktop files, and here we have the name "Lock Device" for "org.nemomobile.lipstick". So while you have the Lock Device app, the lipstick will be named "Lock Device". Logical!
