Has anyone experienced the lockscreen not coming on after a screen time out or a screen turn off? I first noticed this about two weeks ago on my Droid Incredible phone while it was in an unrooted, stock state.
I then rooted and flashed to Skyraider 4.0. I have all the settings for the customized lockscreen set and this feature has been working like charm since flashing. The other day, when i pressed the power button to unlock the phone, it went right to my main home screen, rather than bringing up the lock screen. I checked and the lockscreen settings have not changed and are activated. I restarted and it was back to normal. This lasted about a week, then once again, the lockscreen disappeared.
I know its a stupid nit, but I like the security of the lockscreen / security option. Plus, it prevents pocket dailing. Anyone experience this on SR 4.0 or stock? I find it weird the problem would follow over after I flashed.
How often do you notice it? I'm running OMFGB and I've recently noticed it as well, seems to happen usually when I shut the screen off manually then realize I forgot to do something and turn it back on in <5 seconds....
i've recently rooted my samsung galaxy s3 for rogers via xda. root went fine. i downloaded go launcher and presently have the ui 3.0 theme downloaded. everything is fine except for my lock screen. i have set my own picture as i did before i started using go launcher but it will not change. i have tried switching it to swipe, pattern, pin etc.. will not even show up.. picture will not change. the theme lock screen keeps appearing and i hate it. can anyone help with this??
Hey guys, recently (today 1/28) i noticed my galaxy note 2 automatically bypasses the lock screen whenever the screen wakes up (so no ripple effects, and i have no lock or pin or pattern set, so just a swipe would work). So I tried setting up a pattern lock, and similar thing happens. The phone would wake up, go to home screen for a split second, then returns back to the lock screen with the pattern lock.
I was wondering, does anyone know whats wrong with this?
Extra information: I used to have GO launcher on it with their custom lock screen. However, I uninstalled everything already, so that shouldn't be a problem.

it's Go Locker... it's not the best lock screen replacement... you should turn off the go locker lock screen and turn on the stock one. Clear defaults on Go Locker and set it to just Go Launcher and enable the original lockscreen after disabling Go Locker

but I have already cleared w/e data that Go Locker has and then uninstalled it. So i doubt that Go locker is causing my lock screen bypassing problem, unless it was some sort of glitch from when i had it (i used it for 2 days)

I tried rebooting, removing battery, rebooting without SD card. So far nothing works. Odd thing is that, during the early part of reboot when the widgets are not fully loaded yet, this problem don't exist. But when the widgets are fully loaded, this problem returns
I am using stock and for like less than a half of a second that happens. Nothing u can really do with it.

Problem is completely solved now. Apparently, it is the result of a bug/glitch in a chinese music streaming app that I got from Google play. Also, thanks to everyone that replied to this.

I had the same problem, I had the "Lock instantly with power key" unchecked, however the phone still locks it right after I push the power key no matter how long I set the lock time. Then I found out that whenever I have the Kugou Music running, it does that. So as long as you quit the program when not listening music, you are fine.
And there's actually one setting on Kugou Music that override the lock screen.
2 days ago I started getting a strange lock screen on my S3. I noticed it when my alarm went off in the morning. There was a plain black and blue lock screen. When I swiped past it, my alarm showed up. When I dismissed my alarm, my normal lock screen showed up (complete with the normal unlock pattern dots.)
This new lock screen doesn't show up all the time. Maybe 2-3 times per day. I think, but I'm not sure, that it's being triggered by the phone going to sleep. Turning the screen off and on only triggers the normal lock screen. The new lock screen never overrides the default lock screen - it's just over top of it. Also, it looks like if I disable lock screens altogether in settings, the new lock screen goes away.
I've uninstalled all launchers except Lightning Launcher and TouchWiz. LL's lock screen is a separate app that I do not have. I've uninstalled all lock screen replacements that I know of (I only had Widget Locker). I checked the list of recently updated apps to try to figure out if it's a new "feature", but nothing. I've checked the list of running apps, along with apps that automatically start up on load and I don't see anything strange.
Does anyone know of a way I can determine how to figure out what this is? I'd like to get rid of it.
I'm running StockMod ROM 4.3 (rooted). A screenshot is attached.
Thanks.
Hi!
Does StockMod ROM come with the Active Display feature? Because what you are seeing might some kind of Active Display...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450697
I didn't see Active Display, but I did notice that Dynamic Notifications was enabled. Not sure when or why. I turned it off and I haven't seen anything pop up since. Hopefully that was it.
Thanks for your help!
I have no idea what I would have done to cause this but I seem to have lost the option to customize my lock screen shortcuts from the lock screen settings menu. I know I had the option even earlier today but now it's just gone. I've been running SkyDragon 0.0.5 for weeks now and I can't think of anything else I would've changed that would have made the option disappear. I should probably also mention that I'm running Xposed with the lock screen disabler module but I've also been running that for quite a while. I can still see the lock screen shortcuts that I had previously set up, but now I can't change them.
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone?
