I've been searching this problem, but I couldn't find an answer...
I always enabling the pattern lock on my phone. after flashing Hyperdroid-Androidmeda 4.4.7 and then Vert's ICS Theme (did a full wipe) I've encountered a problem:
the pattern disables it self, and I get the regular lock screen, and no security is enabled. I also have PhoneLocator app installed, which should lock the device every time the display's off, but even than I don't get the pattern lock...
Has anyone encountered the same problem?
It's the I9100 international version, with the latest Hyperdroid rom.
Thanks!

I am rooted on 1.57 and have version 2 of GingerBlur. I wanted to set up a pattern and fingerprint recognition for my lock screen. I have the pattern setup so when I go to settings and click OK so enroll new fingerprints the phone sort of freezes. I tap back and home a bunch and after a couple of seconds it goes back. It won;t let me swipe my fingerprints though and add that to the lock screen. What do I do?
Unfortunately I have a similar probelm, I think. After updating to GB2.5 last night my fingerprint scanner has become totally unresponsive. I tried to re-enable it but don't really know how I would do that. When I go to set up a fingerprint scan it basically acts like I'm not swiping my finger.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Same problem; Atrix gingerblur 2.5 flashed from stock 1.26.
Did you guys ever find a solution to this? I'm having the same exact issue...
I had the same issue last week until I did a SBF flash to 1.87 and then re-flashed to gingerblur 3.5.
Hey Guys,
First of all I'm on 2.3.4 AT&T stock ROM not unlocked modified in any way. I'm an international user so I just SIM UNLOCKED it so it can work with my operator.
I'm having a weird problem with my Atrix with the screen lock. It just doesn't work, no matter wich method I use (Fingerprint, password, PIN, etc). I turn on the screen and no lock method is asked it just goes directly to desktop.
I checked the security lock timer, it's dim out when fingerprint and with other methods its on When display is off but NO luck whatsoever.
Now the weird thing is that when I turn off the phone and turn it on again the phone ask me for my sim pin and then the screen lock method but that's it.
Maybe someone had seen this issue before and can give me a little hand?
Thanks.
hi,
I have an issue with lock screen on my GT-7510 with stock 3.2. There is no lock screen when I lock the device. I can configure PIN or password and so on in settings but when I wake up the tab the lock screen is still missing.
I've tried factory reset with no effect.
can someone give me an advice how to solve this? I don't want to install any special app or custom rom...
Thanks
I have the same issue since my Gtab came back from being repaired by Samsung.
I have also tried a hard reset.
The only time I see any lock screen is at first start from hard reset.
Have you tried re flashing the stock ROM or maybe a custom one? Can't think of anything else that should work (or not)

I have the same issue with my GT-P7500, it has unlocked padlock on bootup screen, it has a correct IMEI on settings, but has NO SERIAL NUMBER (00000000000), I don't know why.
I tried several stock roms but the only one where lock screen works is with the last 3.1 for UK (PDA: P7500XWKHD CSC: P7500XEUKH3 PHONE: P7500XWKG1).
I have too a "Factory Mode" icon on home screen where I could write samsung codes (like "*#1234#" to see the rom version).
The problem: It doesn't matter the kind of lock you configure, after spending the correct time to lock it or pushing power button to lock it inmediately, there is no lock screen at all, and when you push power button again, it backs to the running program. At the same time, if you push the power button for 1.5~2 seconds, it just power down without the typical selection window (where you could activate silence and flight modes).
Other cons: I tried to install AOKP, and it show me a serial number.
Maybe with those details someone can help us.
in custom roms, like CM9, the lock sreen works, in stock ICS doesn't
I was used to using No Lock on my previous Android 2.3 phone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock
Always worked flawlessly.
On my SGS III however there is an annoying side effect.
I tried it with a Pattern Lock and also a PIN lock.
With one of these active, and then telling No Lock to disable the lock, I can succesfully turn the screen back on without going through the lock. Great for car or desk use.
However as soon as I then select something from the Notifications pulldown, the Pattern or PIN lock suddenly pops up! It is like it was already running in the background, and then became activated or something.
I tried various alternative apps, such as Impel (with a script), No Lock Screen (with Only when charging), Auto Unlock Trial Edition... but all exhibited the same problem. Some would even change the Home button into a 'Show The Lock Screen" button... even worse!
I wonder if this is specific for Samsung, or SGS III, or ICS.
So, has anybody got a clue... or a fix?
I think it's an ICS thing... I've been using Delayed Lock for over a year and IIRC when ICS came out, this problem was present, however it was fixed by the dev. The other thing is that for DL to work on ICS using an unlock pattern, it needs to go in the system/apps but didn't need to on GB.

Thanks, I'll give Delayed Lock a try.
In the mean time, still open for other suggestions and/or deeper insights into this matter!
You can just disable the lock screen in the security menu, no? I used the rooted image and Odin to root my phone but I thought the image was all stock and I have the option to have no lock.
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but I am unable to apply lock screen security in any of the nightly builds of CM10.2. I have cleaned flashed them all and none of them work. I go into lock screen settings and when I apply the patter/pin/face unlock it goes through the process, but back in the options it remains as Slide. How do I enable lock screen security?
Edit:Just tried CM10.1 and it does the same thing. Driving me crazy!
Figured it out. My profiles were preventing me from changing it.
