Hi guys, I have a serious problem,my lockscreen is gone. In the settings it's set to 'pattern lock'.. And also I did not disabled it with other mods/apps.. Can you guys help me somehow? Or just how to unlock the sim card? (i know the pin for it, but its just doesnt ask for it, but its locked) more info about my phone in my signature.
So you're saying that you were just using it and everything was fine, and then all of a sudden there was no lock screen? Is your rom stock or custom? Did you do anything in /system with file explorer, etc.? Do you have Xposed? Did you reboot, and then it happened, or just lock the screen?
Its a stock rom. I didnt do anything, so that's why I dont understand what the heck has happened. I have xposed.
4 days ago my father called, the phone was in my pocket, and somehow I sent a message to him, and the lockscreen froze. I thought okay, imma reboot you now. And that since then I dknt have the lockscreen. If i lock the screen with the button and just pressing it again its like if there were no lockscreen, it takes my right back where I left.
So i'm checking out the permissions for the gesture.key and password.key, and they seem to have right permissions. (rw-------)
So I cut them out of there, I'm rebooting now, let's see what happens.
I saw the lockscreen for a second!!!!
Okay, I set up a new pin, now it's working fine!

Okay, so I had the g2 for a little now. However, I just recently rooted it. I used visionary r14, and eventually got s-off. I then downloaded ROM manager, and tried installing cyanogenmod 6.1.1. The installation didn't give me any errors, and when it was finally done, everything seemed like it didn't work, as if I had just done a normal factory reset.
I had assumed nothing changed, I didn't even have the superuser app installed. So then I tried going back to my homescreen and it wouldn't let me. The home button is not working. I can use the other three touch sensible buttons, but the home one seems to have been disabled. Would anyone know what could have led to this, and more importantly how can I fix it? For those curious, yes I still have s-off. Is there any way I can remove it, if only it would assure my home button would work again? Thanks in advance.
If anyone has any form of information at all, it would be extremely appreciated.

I'm running CM 6.1.1 Stable on my G2 (just a couple weeks old) and I've noticed that my home button doesn't work sometimes. It works about 95% of the time, but then it will do the occasional hiccup where nothing happens. If I touch it a few more times it will eventually start working again. Not sure what it is, but I read in another thread here that it could have something to do with how the CM ROM is configured for capacitive touchscreen sensitivity. And I believe I read that this has only been reported in CM and not other ROMs.

Had this issue yesterday. I did a factory wipe from Clockwork and reflashed CM. Fixed it.
even iam facing the problem, but i guess mine is worst as the all(4) softkeys doesn't respond, but when i press it, i receive the feedback i.e it vibrates.
2nd issue: my physical keyboard layout is pretty much messed up, the symbol key which i press on my keyboard doesn't display the exact symbol
it would be kind if someone offer some solution for this
Rom: CM 6.1.1 (even tried nightly build #85)
Build: HK
P.S: i never had those problems in the stock rom
I'm having the same problem with CM6.1.1. I noticed it after installing Twidroyd app. I couldn't exit it via the home button...had to back all the way out. Uninstalled and still having the problem. Doesn't seem to be working at all now.
I had this sort of problem with my G1, I flashed the BiffMod ROM and some day, the phone just randomly did a factory reset, the background is set to how it was when I first flashed it and the home screen was back to normal like how it was when I first flashed it. My home button would not work, when I pushed the end call button to put the phone in sleep mode, it would turn off but if I were to press it again,the screen would turn on but it didn't go to the lock screen it just turned on. To fix it I went into recovery and wiped all five(I'm using Amon_Ra's recovery on it) then I booted back up and my home button worked again and when I put the phone to sleep, it turned back on like normal with the lock screen. That has happened a few times, some times when I did the wipe, every thing would start working again and my home screen still had everything placed where it is suppose to be. You could try to wipe everything, but I can't guaranty it because I don't even have my G2 yet so this has never happened to me on a G2.
i wiped everything data / cache ,flashed GingerVillain 1.4 , the softkeys won't work even in this rom, the only place where softkeys work is HTC's Stock rom. iam just wondering is it due to my build, as its Hong Kong build, so there is a possibility that the keymap for softkeys are different?

Hi, I made this thread in a different section and haven't gotten an answer, so might've been in the wrong place.
I have for the first time rooted my HTC Desire. And for the first time also just installed a ROM, LeeDroid 3.0.6-R2. Everything works fine, so I think, but one thing.
I've set up my Exchange account to my work and entered a new pin code. The pin code works every time when the phone locks and I need to enter the pin to unlock it. But as soon as I go into Clockwork Recovery mode and then do nothing but restart the phone, it doesn't accept my pin code. After 8 failed attempts it wipes my phone automatically.
When it happened the first time I thought I messed up with the pin code. So I wiped the phone and started over (not reflashing the ROM), setting up Exchange with the same pin code. But it didn't accept the one I used previously. So I choose a new one, simple, 0000. Tried several times to unlock with the pin after the phone had locked. Then just now I rebooted again with Clockwork Recovery and just restarted the phone and it again won't accept my pin code.
I don't want to disable the policy and not have a pin code via some app.
Has anyone had this issue before? It's like my pin code isn't saved once I go into Recovery mode. But it still enforced the policy.
I've also tried just adding the pin code lock, without activating the ActiveSync, and that also gives me the same error. One time I managed to make it work. I set the pin, reboot normaly which worked ok, then go into recovery and reboot. It worked. But the 2nd time i went into recovery mode it stopped working again.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated.
TIA
I'd post this problem directly in the LeeDroid thread. You might try out another ROM, but it sounds like a ROM issue.

I had a similar sounding problem when I upgraded from LeeDroid 2.3d to 2.4.1.
The flash worked ok and all seemed good.
I then rebooted and was no longer able to enter the device PIN (not the SIM PIN).
I had been restoring all applications and all system data using Titanium backup.
Looks like not a good idea. had to re-flash. Just restoring Missing applications
was ok.
Could this be your problem?
I have done it a few times by restoring from Titanium Backup. But I've also tried just after I flashed the phone and nothing else but enter a pin code and it still wouldn't work after I rebooted from recovery.
I also thought about that I restored from Titanium. Perhaps the old accounts or something like that. I have now not rebooted my phone for a couple of days since I fear it will bugg out again.
Had a custom Stock LG ROM on my phone, decided I wanted something a lot lighter and faster so I went with resurrection ROM, everything went went fine during the install, wipe everything did the usual stuff, but pin lock doesn't work at all.
I set it up, but it doesn't work, when I go to change it the after entering my pin the settings just crash for the lockscreen security which is odd.
I think my pin is working but not actually being displayed?
So I changed from my old ROM to Dirty Unicorn, all went well, but no pin lock on the lock screen, when I try to change that the settings part of the lockscreen lock will crash, but it will ask me for a pin to access it, tried 3 more ROMS, same problem, I have now just tried Imperium and the problem is still here!?
I have never encountered this before, anyone know how I could fix this? Also my backups fail (can't access some folder or something) so I can't even restore to my version beforehand
Any and all help is appreciated
Edit: Just going back to DU so you all know what ROM I'm running now
Good evening companions, I have a question that is more out of curiosity since it is not a problem of malfunction.
The point is that when I turn on the phone it starts perfectly until the lock screen is shown, there I put the pattern and it already opens the desk. So far so good, but after about 10 seconds the device returns to the lock screen even if I am using it and I have to unlock it again even if I already have the fingerprint reader. It is normal to block again even if you do not want to ??, someone else happens, can be solved ???
My model is the G9600 (snapdragon).
Thanks for any comments, regards!

that does not sound normal at all. go into settings and disable all screen locks, reboot, re-enable the desired locks and let me know if that solves this for you

Thank you very much for your response, I commented that I have verified that it does so until the rom is installed by odin, that is, without having configured any security. This Sunday I was testing and I put several times trying some options in odin but nothing changed. I also just tried deactivating the pattern and the footprint, restarting and reapplying the locks to make sure, it's the same.
Outside of that I have no complaints, everything is excellent :good:
Today I installed the rom with a June patch and the problem does not (I remembered that there was an update that I thought would be solved), but when updating by September to September, the problem has returned.
Tonight I will try to install the June one again and take it by odin to September but without updating modem or csc .... play a little haha
Well ... the problem is solved or hidden I don't know. I have installed "Bl" by odin but the one in June and the rest of the patch has been in September, I had never done this but it works there without the restart.
What I don't know is what problems this graft can cause even when it can continue like this. I suppose that when I leave rom with bootloader 6 it won't work for me anymore ... or if it will allow me to skip the "bl" when installing by odin .....
Now with the October update I could no longer maintain the bootloader because it has gone to binary 6 and does not allow installing the new rom with the old bootloader. Unfortunately again the problem returned ..... nobody knows how to solve it ???
