Hi All,
I found a bug and want to see if it only affects my rom or others. I'm running Resurrection 2.5.3 on a SGS2.
DO NOT TRY THIS UNLESS YOU WANT A CHALLENGE TRYING TO UNLOCK YOUR PHONE W/O THE OK BUTTON. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
If you want to try this and you have the pin lock on, i suggest using a simple pin number consisting of only 1,2 4 and 5. Also turn on the feature that automatically unlocks w/o hitting OK.
To repro the bug:
* lock your screen into landscape mode with auto-rotate turned off.
* let the phone lock.
*If you have the pin lockscreen enabled, when the display comes back up, you can only see the top left corner of the keypad. On my phone I couldn't not press the OK button after i entered my pin.
* I finally managed to unlock using adb and screen caster.
Anyone else experience this? I have to say it's really annoying. Took a bit of time to figure out how to login.

I was wondering if there was a way to do this. You wake up your phone, it's locked. You hold the sleep button and the phone goes straight to the home screen.
Or even better, you wake the phone up by holding the sleep button and the phone idles on the lock screen for a second and then jumps to the home screen (similar to iPhone's new fingerprint scanner, but without the scanner). Maybe the lock screen can have a fake pin lock to mislead people using my phone.
I've been waiting for this for years but I don't think anyone's developed it. Would there be a way I could do it with Tasker? Or maybe there's something on xda that I can download for it to work? I am rooted with a Note 3.
Also, if there are any other revolutionary new lockscreen's out there, let me know! I'm not into the whole typing a password to unlock because everyone sees the password anyway. Plus it's tedious. Any ideas?
Hi,
On my LG Nexus 5, I have setup a delay for the lockscreen to 2 minutes after the phone is not in use. This is also true for when I turn off the screen with the power button (the phone will only lock 2 minutes later). I love this feature as I don't have to input my password too often when, for example, I turn the screen off and realize I forgot to check something. I just press the power button again and the phone is unlocked (if done within 2 minutes).
My questions is how can I lock my phone immediately without changing the 2-minute setting? In some cases, I would like the phone to lock immediately. Does anyone know how to do this without installing some new app on my phone? And if this is not possible, can you recommend an app that would allow me to lock my phone right away (for example when I tap an icon or something)?
Thanks!
Help! In trying to get my swipe lock screen to self-actvate when the screen turns off, I've managed to make the problem worse.
I made it PIN lock, intending to return to Swipe after testing. Now there are NO options for locking except PIN and no obvious way to clear it. I've read all kinds of suggestions, none of which worked. Surely this is not a "feature"?
Edit: Oh, duh. I can't believe this isn't documented somewhere. So you just go to the settings menu under Lock Screen and it says PIN. You touch that and it asks you to confirm your PIN. When you do you are presented with all the options again (including Swipe). Whew! Now if only the #%@#$ thing would engage when the screen turns off like it should!
Hey so my v10 sometimes doesn't allow me to unlock my phone with my fingerprint and I have to manually enter my password. Is this a problem for anyone else or just me? I have changed the fingerprints and changed lock screen from knock code to pattern but neither helped.
Yes I get this too. I know it will force manual entry after reboot but I experience this throughout the day from time to time. Its inconsistent.
Do you use an app to put the phone to sleep? There is a known issue in Marshmallow where fingerprint unlock will not work if the phone is put to sleep via an app rather than the power button.
I do double tap the status sometimes to turn the screen off but I don't think it's that. And no I don't use an app to turn off the screen
Hello everyone,
I have a weird behavior when I have to enter my pin code to unlock my Mate 20 Pro. I have to press my finger for a long time for 2-5-8-0 numbers. For other figures no problem, they respond instantly.
To reproduce the problem, simply crack the unlock with the fingerprint and have the numeric keypad to type the unlock code.
I also notice that if I launch the camera from the lock screen, the trigger of photos galley a little, I have to leave my finger pressed a certain moment. On the other hand no problem when the phone is unlocked and I run the camera.
It's also complicated to pick up and slide to the right or left when I get a call on the screen locked.

Did some of you have the problem?
Thanks for your feedback.
Never experienced this... Try booting to safe mode and see if the problem persist.
