After I gave my Desire HD to my brother for a minute, the lock screen dissapeared completely. Whenever I turn on my screen, there is no lock screen. The same goes for incoming calls, no lockscreen and no lock bar to answer the phone.
I've searched arround a little, and only found threads about turning off the lockscreen, which appearently is impossible without the use of a certain app? I'm quite sure I havn't got such an app installed and I'm quite sure that my brother didn't mess arround a lot with my phone. I just let him use the browser for a while.
What could be the problem? I'm using LauncherPro.

Hey guys,
I just wanted to ask if you have the same problems with the lockscreen when you want to take a call? A few
minutes ago I received a phonecall and of course I had to unlock the phone first. Everytime it's a real adventure
to answer the telephone. I have to slide my finger two or three times over the screen to remove the lockscreen
and take the call. But who might think that would be enough... Often the slider hangs at the end after you slid your
finger over the screen. This would be ok, if it unlocks then. But it doesn't. So you wait two seconds and then you
slide your finger over the display again. And finally you can take the call
So my question is, do you have similar issues?
I don't want to make a call in an emergency with this lockscreen
ive found that if the slider hangs, just tap the top of the slide just above/past the slider and it will unlock

This happens all the time to me, plus that I have problem with the screen, the touch isn't always recognised at a specific area of the screen, ..not to mention the corners.... I have problem with the half bottom of the screen right in the middle of the unlock arrow..! It makes it hard for me to scroll the internet browser sometimes!
Different had any problems so far, but I have the same problem. I hope they give us the ability to use that custom lock screen security thing without this thing.

The lock slider on the x10 is a pita.
Thanks for your answers
Good to see that I am not the only one who has problems with this damned
thing. @assangflexx: I don't know if that is such a good idea. I know that
when you make a call and tab the homebutton, the screen switches to your
homescreen. That's exactly what it should do. But since the phone is working
to full capacity during a call it's a pain in the a** to get back to other screen,
where you can end the call...
im having the same problems. but i also have a problem with the thouch when im writing a sms. sometimes it wont press the "A" button and when i press "ALT" sometimes that dosent work and it just inserts a space instead.
I feel annoyed whenever I want to have pattern lock on, because that means I have to press the top button to turn on the phone, then unlock the phone iwth the HTC ring, then use my pattern?
I was with a buddy today and he has the SGII on Rogers, and he doesn't have a lock screen if he decides to use pattern.
Anyway around this?
If you use a nonsense rom I think the ring lock is gone there may also be tweaks for this. I must admit I lol'd to the 'is this real life??' I haven't looked into it much besides that. On the bright side, with it set up this way you can still control music from the 'lock screen' unlike if there was just the pattern. From what I know.

There is an app I use called NoLock that disables this. I think you have to run it every time you reboot, though.
Edit: Not sure if it will disable the pattern lock as well or not, I prefer no lock screen at all.

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.
I have hunted and hunted, but can't figure this one out. On my Note 2 I could go to the stock Samsung calendar settings and turn off "Notifications While the Screen Is Off." However, on the S4 I do not see the option to turn these notifications off. I have tried different roms, etc.
I need to keep notifications on so that they sit in my notification bar when I turn the screen on (so, I can't completely turn off notifications). However, I don't want my screen turning on every 15 minutes that I have an appointment (this drains the battery pretty quick).
Anyone know what I'm talking about or what to do about it? By the way, I would go with the stock Google calendar, but like Samsung's much more.
Thanks in advance for any help.
One more try ... anyone have any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem. I get the notification, but it keeps the screen on until I acknowledge. I don't usually notice until my pocket gets really warm, then I realize the screen's been on the whole time.
it happened a couple times....
i lock my screen with knock mode, but sometimes when i press the power button to see the hour, there is no knock mode and i can unlock the screen by drag!!!
also sometimes the sound (for sms or alarm) changes opposite and the sound for sms is the alarm sound...
thats all i have to say at this time... multitasking goes very well and battery too...
v20c-op1-hq software version
happened this to anyone?
I havent any problem like that. Just screen turn on when sms comes and my app social media just stopped when im not using my phone. Maybe, reflash the rom can make it normal
confirmed i have the 'no lock' problem sometimes too
