I just changed from an earlier debloated version of the stock verizon ROM to power washed w/ the stock updated ED05 kernel. Since then I noticed that attempts to disable the keyguard (puzzle lock screen) are ignored. I had both a tasker task to turn on the screen and unlock automatically when plugged in, as well as a switchpro widget that turns off the keyguard, and neither of them are functional anymore.
Any help?
Thanks.

Update: Also, the quick reply functionality of chomp no longer works. It seems nothing can unlock my screen now?

I've ran into a very odd problem recently: I can't turn off the screen while I'm in the lockscreen - it keeps flashing on and off constantly every 2 seconds.
I have to unlock first, and than the screen shuts down absolutely fine (using the power button / inactivity timeout).
This also happens when receiving an unanswered call - the lockscreen keeps blinking on and off until I unlock it.
I've tried re-flashing the ROM (and checking out other roms), and another kernel - no help, it still happens.
I've tried checking it out in safe mode - happens as well.
Happens when the phone is plugged or unplugged to USB, the connector is working fine.
Happens on 4.1.2 & 4.2.1 with all lockscreen options (slide PIN password etc) - with every gadget / extra feature disabled.
I've tried disabling every app I can think off, switch to airplane mode (in case it comes from some signal / wifi), and checking with airpush detector & AVG.
This is driving me crazy, is there a way to debug this and find out what keeps waking up the phone into this freaking loop?
Update: I've found a partial solution - using an alternative lockscreen (tested with go locker) seems to solve this problem.
this means something is wrong with the vanilla lockscreen apk / some setting.
does somebody have the 4.1.2 lockscren apk available?
How does one disable the pull down notification on the lock screen?
When the phone is in my pocket the power button is sometimes pressed by my clothing. When this happens the pull down menu can be activated and from there the phone is unlocked. When in this state all *.* happens. It has taken reboots an as long as 5 minutes to straighten out the mess.
Can the pull down be disabled via an edit or is there a setting I have not found yet?
The current ROM is NuSense Max by Santod. This has plagued me since KitKat came on the scene.
TIA

Hi All
I am running CyanogenMod version - 12.1-20160529-NIGHTLY-klimwifi
Kernel version 3.4.105g766de8b
I have as you can tell by my heading an issue, my tablet after using the plex app decided to power off and would not restart until I tried turning it on in recovery mode. When it did turn on the lock screen did not display the usual text (swipe to unlock) and the notification drawer would not display or pull down.
I tried cycling it on and off a few times and alternating between turning it on in recovery or download mode but no response, eventually allowed me to access the notification drawer and by creating a new profile I could access everything again. I deleted this profile just to make sure and tried it again and discovered the if I hit the volume buttons a few times everything works fine the tablet though has become slower in its response.
Has anyone else come across this issue.
Im using 2 apps Rotation Control to lock on orientation mode and Power Toggles to toggle sleep mode.
Rotation Control:
I use it to lock on landscape mode all the time. But with some apps, it still opens in portrait mode and even set to auto mode. Still it wont turn to landscape mode at all and can only use it on portrait mode! Some apps, it still opens in portrait mode, but after turned on auto mode and turn the tablet to landscape mode and I can lock it to landscape. But still very annoying to do this every time. it happens. I have never such problem in all mine apps in all mine previous tablets. Only on this M5 tablet.
Power Toggle:
I use this widget to toggles between sleep time. Ex set it to 3-10 min and after a while it turns auto back to 30 sec!
Anyone can tell me what the heck is going on? Is it the tablet/EMUI or apps causing this?
Rotation Control works perfectly for me, although I primarily force auto rotation. I'm rooted if it makes a difference (I don't think it does).
If you use a third party app/widget to change screen brightness or timeout, the value resets after you turn the screen off. That's an EMUI thing, I think. There is probably a work around (I would try freezing iAware if rooted) although I have learned to roll with it. Kindisplay does work to keep the screen on where movement is detected.

I managed to solve orientation problem to allow Rotation Control for app overlay. But the annoying Android system shows up in status bar and can't get rid of that message.
I suspected that was EMUI thing, reset to 30 sec. But can't find any solution to this stupid feature.
This will be mine first and last Huawei device. Good quality but crap software.

That's and Android thing I believe, not EMUI. You can get rid of the notification by following these instructions:

I've been documenting my struggles with my lock screen in another thread. But I just had a major breakthrough and didn't want this to get buried.
To recap, my lockscreen has been a buggy mess from day one. The fingerprint sensor barely works, the fingerprint icon randomly disappears, and the gray border that's supposed to appear around the fingerprint icon simply doesn't show up. The lockscreen doesn't light up when I pick up the phone either (it stays dimmed). Also, wallpapers don't show up on the lock screen, and the big ugly clock sometimes disappears or moves itself to the top-left.
I've tried just about everything to fix this. As a last-ditch effort, I added a new user profile only to find that the lockscreen works perfectly well for this new profile (but still not for my main one).
Here's my main profile with the unusable lockscreen:
broken lockscreen of main profile
Watch "broken lockscreen of main profile" on Streamable.

And here's what it looks like when using the other profile:
working lockscreen on new profile

So there's clearly some obscure bug that most people aren't experiencing here. I'd love to just figure it out so I can move on.
When I didn't have the "always on display" turned on, the phone was very consistant about turning on properly when I picked it up. I ran it this way for 3-4 days without any issues.
After reading some articles on the P6, I realized that it has an AOD and that it was turned off. So I turned the AOD on while leaving all the other settings set the same. At first, the finger print icon wouldn't appear consistantly, but that is because I had adjusted the animation scale settings in the Developer settings. Changing that back to stock fixed the issue with the finger print icon not showing up.
That beings said, I have experienced the same "unresponsive" screen many times over the last couple of days that I have had the AOD turned on. The screen stays dimmed (or even turned off if I pull the phone out of my pocket) and the finger print reader is inactive (even though the icon is displayed). The screen is suppose to turn on when I lift the phone up, but it doesn't always do it. When this happens, I have to either manually turn the screen on using the power button, or double tap the screen to wake it. This is clearly a bug in the system somewhere. I probably need to report it to Google, but hopefully it is fixed soon.
After spending way too long on this, I've determined that the bug occurs consistently with these specific settings (although it may also occur for similar ones):
Lock after screen timeout: 30 minutes (or anything high enough to prevent it from locking between tests)
Power button instantly locks: disabled
Lift to check phone: disabled
Tap to check phone: disabled
Always show time and info: enabled
Replication steps:
1) Enter the above settings
2) Press the Power button to go to the lockscreen
3) Set your phone down for a couple seconds
4) Pick your phone back up and try to use the fingerprint sensor
Result: The fingerprint sensor won't work the first time.
I think all the other issues I had were actually stemming from this one issue.
