If I turn on screen lock for security on incoming calls it asks me for the PIN prior to letting me answer.
never had this on my previous android devices
Samsung Galaxy S2
HTC Desire HD
Nexus One
Motorola Milestone
Is there any way to keep this feature on but allow incoming calls to be answered without it?
I have screen lock activated with a pin, but I can answer calls directly from the lock screen.
SIM card lock is not activated though.

No. Mine is set for 30 minutes.

Work fine at 3 minutes settings too.
The PIN code screen comes after the call is ended.

Hello
Sorry to hijack your thread but I just had a question. I want this feature and do you know how to activate it? I need a pin on my phone before anyone can answer calls. I had this feature on my old Motorola phones but then they moved to android and that feature was gone too.
Please let me know.
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

Hopefully something's not set right in some obscure configuration somewhere? Otherwise...
...I'm highly annoyed with this new ICS "feature" that opens the call history screen after any phone call completes. What idiot thought that would be a good thing to do?
I want the phone to do what Android used to do -- return to whatever was in the foreground when the call came in. Or when making a call, whatever was in the foreground when I made the call (think of direct dial shortcuts in the launcher, for example).
Please tell me there's some way around this f*ckture that Google so kindly added.
My phone never opens call history after a phone call unless I was already in the phone app,.......

Hmmm... maybe it's related to Go Launcher?
I'll try some experiments comparing the stock launcher to GO, and report back.
Maybe give On Call End a try: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brosix.callend&hl=en
Hopefully the "Do Nothing" option works for you, but I haven't tried it.
I have the same issue. Anyway to resolve without installing 3rd party apps?
I have the exact same issue.
after a phone call, the histroy shows up by itself.

I don't know, maybe you could try buying one yourself. Did "your" watch somehow become self-aware and lock itself?

Is there a pattern you have used for your phone in the past?

I was just thinking you may of used it. I've looked allover and can't find an answer. Have you tried holding the button for a while?
The only thing you could do is go to the store where you bought it from.
I had the same problem (pattern lock and forgot it later) and I spoke to someone in Motorola. Seems the only way to unlock your moto 360 from the pattern lock is to just randomly swipe a wrong pattern several times (7 - 8 times) which includes the 30 second timeout(s) in between, till it asks you to factory reset. This helped me out.
I don't think bryanwerewolf was wrong to ask for proof OP wasn't a 360 thief... AFAIK the only way to see that lock screen is if you set it up with a password, and the OP actually said:

though if it works that kind of defeats the purpose of locking it lol
I locked mine and kept trying wrong patterns. You do get the opportunity to factory reset
Anyone face the same issue? I manually updated the patch via side loading and sometimes the double tap won't wotk.

I found it wasn't great in the dark, I assume it uses the light sensor to determine if in pocket etc

I have noticed the same thing. It isn't 100% consistent.
FWIW: Mine seems to be very consistent if I triple tap. Perhaps the first tap wakes it up if it's in a deep sleep?
Hopefully fixed in the December update.

Has been working consistently for me so far. Will post back if that changes.

OK, still not working consistently. I don't get what's happening to make it randomly not work. When it doesn't work, it doesn't matter how many times I tap it does NOTHING. Then if I unlock it with my fingerprint and shut it off again it immediately lights up the ambient display like I just tapped on it again.

I can't tell you the "why". But I can tell you that mine does work consistently if I tap it 3 times. Something's different in our devices, or our setup....
Edit: not 5 minutes after posting this, my XL started randomly not responding to dttw.

Makes no sense. I'm glad we are seeing the same issues though, at least it's consistent there
I'm having the same exact issues. Tap not working consistently and sometimes the lift doesn't work either. Hmm.
It's worth noting I had the same issues with the Elemental kernel before this ddtw option was available. The ddtw option was just as inconsistent for me.
Neither working at all for me.
Update: Seems to be working fine now.
if you have a screen protector that might cause the issue
if it still doesnt work without screen protector reflash the factory image
The update seems to fix the issue.
Update: the issue still there. But much less frequent
The is double tap to wake? Is this with a custom kernel? Otherwise I didn't know this was an option. How do you activate that feature?
I have noticed that is works better if the screen is locked. So if your phone doesn't lock for 5 or so minutes, it may not work until after that time. Try to set your phone to "Power button instantly locks" and then try it. Mine was not working at all, but when I locked the device sooner, it started to work consistantly. Might not help you, but fixed it for me.
Works fine for me, do you have a tap on?

December OTA. Same location as other Moves/ gestures.
FWIW: what I've noticed is that if my phone is sitting on something, DTTW works 100% of the time. If I have it in my hand, it's very sporadic.
It is seem wired for me that my LG G7's fingerprint not working every power on. I have latest security update.
This is normal. Every time a reboot is done the unlock method is by pattern or security code, not by fingerprint.

This is in Samsung and probably stock phones as well. Think of it as a security feature.

Oh, I thought my phone has problem.
The Note 8 tells you "Use PIN after restart", so you know you can't use fingerprint scanner after a reboot.

I installed the Google Phone app from the play store. I set it as default phone app. I enabled all permissions including draw over other apps. I checked the notification settings and the priority is Urgent. All that being said, my screen does not turn on for incoming calls. I have to use fingerprint unlock to get my screen on and then I can swipe to answer the call. What setting am I missing to get my screen to turn on?

My LG8 is enroute, seems to work fine on the LG g6 i have it on.. will test next week on the G8
Dialer app working fine on the G6, my G8 came today, tested it there before I had to send it back. A replacement is coming in a few days.
I confirm the Google Phone app and also Orange Phone app do not wake up the screen . Simpler dialer app on the other side does...
My google phone app wakes the screen up without any issue G8 T-Mobile version
Maybe it's some kind of PERMISSIONS issue?
Same permissions for different apps..one does wakes up the screen, Google phone does not....
Back to default dialer for now
Google dialer waking screen here on a AT&T LG G8. I did have to "clear defaults" in the OEM dialer app (which is really contacts).
Just got the phone a few days ago and thanks to this thread for making me realize I could install the google dialer from the store. I experienced the same issue and then after a little digging it seems to work for me now after I turned off adaptive battery under Settings > General >Battery > Adaptive Battery. Because its installed from the play store it was considered a regular app as opposed to system and would get background restricted (in my case anyway). Also make sure background process is not restricted.
Still having issues
Guys, can you help me with this same issue? I have a factory unlocked G8 and tried everything mentioned so far in this thread. I can't get the Google Dialer to wake the screen, no matter what I do. Any other suggestions on what to try?
