Programmatically lock iPhone screen in iOS 7

Question

I know that we can call GSEventLockDevice (); from the GraphicsServices.framework to lock the screen in iOS 6 and older version, as explained by H2CO3 Here. But unfortunately it's not working in iOS 7.

My Question : How to lock the iPhone Screen programmatically in iOS 7 ?

Note : I don't want this for Appstore.

Hi it's not possible in iOS7. You need special entitlement so until there will be a jailbreak you are out of luck
