Hi guys, got a problem. Ive tried activating my lock pattern, but when I lock the screen, then press the home button to activate the display the lock pattern screen doesnt show, so lve got no security what so ever!!?? lve tried restarting the phone, but still no joy!.
Just wondering if anyone has any advice or has experienced the same problem?

Did you get this issue fixed? I'm getting the same issue now, what's worse is that my home button doesn't response after I use it to turn on the phone.
I was typing out a text today (normal mode, not landscape) and out of nowhere the screen faded out and went to the lock screen. What was even more peculiar was that I had no option to unlock the phone; when I tried to swipe my finger where the unlock button should be, the screen dimmed and the letters for the time turned blue while the other stuff (signal, battery, etc) disappeared from the screen.
When I hit the home button I was able to get back into the phone, however it faded back to whatever mock lock screen was there before. The second time I hit the home button it let me get back to the text and finish it.
Has anyone else had a similar issue? I've unlocked my bootloader, rooted, and have flashed several different radios (currently on ugkl1, stock was xxkk6).

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have not had that happen...I am unlocked, rooted, and running a custom rom and kernel. The only thing i did not switch is the radio...So may be what is causing it?
I reset the radio to XXKK6 just for safe measure.
Anyone else seen this issue?
I had weird problems with typing messages in Handcent with weird lag and even force closes on 4.0.2. Have not had these problems on 4.0.4.
So, as it turns out, this problem was cause by my own stupidity...
What was happening as that, in a very small amount of time, my thumb hit the task manager button, and the Clock app was the one that was right under my thumb, which was subsequently selected. For some reason, if you start Clock and try to swipe your finger, the screen dims.
So, total false alarm. Move along, nothing to see here.
Hi,
I have a problem with my lock screen. If I lock my GS using the power button, the slide to lock screen comes up upon pressing the power button again.. fine no problem there.
But, if I let the screen timeout and the press the power button to bring the phone outta standby. There is no lock screen. I am brought straight to the home screen.
I cannot see, or have never come across and option to enable this. I had a look around the Q&A GS forms also. Anyone have any ideas?
(hope it's not something ridiculously simple I've missed)
what is selected in automatically lock? if there is for example 1 minute, and you turn your device in this minute on then there is no lockscreen, but after this minute the lockscreen is back
Ok I've played around with security settings and tried to find the "automatically lock" option. I seems this was not visible until I selected "pattern Unlock".
I set it to 30min at some stage and seem to have forgot about it.
When I set it back to "Immediately", the problem was solved.
Thanks for the reply, gave me a push in the direction I needed to go in.
When I start up the tablet or wake it up the lock screen comes on but disappears very quickly. I then have to hit the home button again and swipe very quickly. Everything else works fine. Husband has exact same tablet but this doesn't happen on his. . Any ideas on what is causing this?
It is happening very often: when I double tap my screen, it wakes up but it takes barely 1-2 secs to shut back off and lock itself... I am having a bad time unlocking my phone now... Any suggestions?

I get the same problem at times. I have to remove the battery to get past it then its ok till the next time
