Alarm Glitch? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys and girls, just thought i might let you know about this oddity/glitch id noticed this morning.
So my alarm went of this morning and i picked it up and it flipped to landscape mode, i turn the alarm off by swiping and then my lock screen key pin screen comes up. So i go to put in my pin and notice that all the numbers are not there the 6 was missing and some others, so i couldnt enter my pin to unlock the screen lol.... not good when you have just woken up lol i swear i counted the numbers 6 times , then i just restarted the phone and it went back to normal.
Anyone else notice this or want to try to recreate the issue? and can i turn the rotate screen off on my pin lock screen settings? are there any settings?
And i know it could be fixed if my Phone was rooted but im not going to root atm.
Thanks in advance again

[Q] Lock screen bypass

I have been able to get around entering my lock pin number simply by waking up the device with the power button and pressing the X when using the face unlock method to get to the pin unlock screen then you just press around the section of the screen that has the time and it works every time! Can anyone else duplicate this? Everything on my phone is stock running the latest Verizon software.
Can't duplicate it.

It has happened many times before by mistake for example I would be pulling my phone out of my shirt pocket and my hand would be on the screen and I would notice that the phone would be unlocked. This morning it happened and I was able to recreate it several times in a row but now I can't seam to get it to happen again. The only difference is now it's not dark. (the sun is up) the face lock also detects the amount of light and sometimes says low light so maybe that has something to do with it since I've noticed this happening a lot when I take my phone out of my pocket.
I got all kinds of ways to bypass the lock on mine its weird..notification pulldown works to..or if you have the stock ticker going that unlocks it also

Lock on lockscreen is tiny tiny?????

Hey all. I keep having a strange issue. I noticed after pulling my phone off my charger that when I went to unlock my phone that the lock that appears on the lock screen is very very small. I restarted the phone and it was back to the normal size. I received a text and opened it from the lockscreen and after that the lock was back to being tiny again. After a restart it is back to normal size again. Is this a setting somewhere or do I have something else going on? I am unrooted using stock lockscreen and Apex launcher. Thanks for any help.
I have had this same problem on my stock s4. It seems to occasionally happen after launching an app right from the lock screen like you said with the text message. The only way I have gotten rid of it was by performing a restart like you said. Not exactly sure what the full problem is yet.

Second screen not scrolling when main screen is off

I just got this bad boy yesterday and now it seems that I can no longer scroll the second screen by swiping on it to access the quick toggles when the main screen is off. Last night I was able to, but today it seems stuck on just showing the time/date and notification icons. No matter what I do I can't get it to scroll to the quick toggles anymore. Anybody else have this issue? Any fix? I have the AT&T version if that means anything.
TIA
Figured it out. I turned KnockOn off and apparently that disabled the whole digitizer when the main screen is off. As soon as I turned it back on, my second screen started working again.

LG G2 developing major malfuction

Hello all, I am currently researching some new phone as my Lg G2 is failing. I thought I would explain the issue though incase its something that could be fixed. The issue started the other day when my phone kept activating in my pocket even with screen lock on. When I try to use my phone the screen would randomly change to a clock face with a small lock symbol in the bottom right of the clock . This clock would be on the top of the screen and the screen would only respond to touch inside the clock image. It would not unlock when swiping. Also while this clock is on my screen if I received a incomming call the clock would be replace with the normal accept or decline screen while shrunk in this small box the clock occupied. It would let me swipe accept call and talk.
I could not google this issue, anyone seen this before?
Thanks.
Wanted to add, I also reset phone back to factory settings and it didnt fix it.

Question Button to rotate screen when auto-rotate isn't on is gone?

I feel like I'm going crazy trying to find evidence that anyone else knows what I'm talking about.
When I first got my Pixel 6 in November, if I had auto-rotate turned off, and turned my screen, a little circular button would show in a corner and I could tap it to make the screen rotate. It was really handy, because I never turn auto-rotate on, so in the rare occasions when I did want to rotate my screen, I could make it rotate quickly.
I've noticed it's gone though. Is there a setting tied to this that maybe I turned off on accident? Was it removed entirely? Could it be gone because I'm rooted? Please let me know. Thanks!
Edit: Nevermind. This is apparently tied to the navigation bar, which I hid because I use third-party nav. Very sad :- (
my buddy got the same problem, dont know whats going on. works for me though
