Hello,
First, I wanna say thank you for the work you out on your BluRom V6.
I was surprised how great it looks. Congratz....
Anyway, I am having a little problem because the screen lock does not work.
I go to settings>security>screen lock>pattern. I draw my pattern and confirm it then it ask for a password I do it twice . After the screen turns off i wait and when i go use the phone the screen is not locked. Noone of the locks work.
Please help.
My Galaxy S2 I9100 is rooted
Thanks

I'm not Blur75, but this is usually due to a missing /efs/imei/keystr file. I'm guessing that BluRom is a pre-rooted ROM? If so, then you can fix this.
Check to see if you have that file. (/efs/imei/keystr) If not, create it, and have it contain the word ON. There are several different methods of doing this.

Hi guys. I'm encounting some problem with my gtab 10.1. Since it have a very rage model name for you (SHW-M380K), i think this's because it come to me strangly from Korea, I have problem with rooting my tab, sometimes the root permission works, sometimes it's not.
And the ClockWorkMod recovery is acting very weird, its fuctions work as usual but the screen is all messed up, like the noise effect from an old tv, i can't see the words, the only way i could use it is to lock at xrecovery menu images from internet and blindy press buttons, i did my backup this way. (When it comes from the store, the stock recovery work perfectly)
With this two problem, i have not guts to flash any of your beautiful roms, but again, I love to!
Please answer me, would you guys find out what i did wrong with my tab, and (if maybe), what rom can my tab (SHW-M380K) flashs in your prefer?
my tab have 3G, wifi and all other services. So it's hard for me to say which model am i on, yes i'm a noob, and i even am not an english speaker, so sorry for my dump questions and bad english.
Any one please respond, i'm very apriciated if you guys could help me out
Please, anyone could help me?
I don't think our roms would run on your (SHW-M380K) tab. Sorry, but then again, I'm probably wrong
M380k

You're talking about the screen lock pattern / PIN / Password / whatever?
Have a look here.
No. I mean is SIM LOCK. When remove my sim and insert to another device. It will need password to unlock. If no. Can not call or sms

Hey,
I'm actually having both the problems described in this thread, and the one that was linked above. When I updated to ICS (official upgrade), my phone became slow, and jerky. On top of that the lock screen is no where to be seen, the phone shuts down without question if I press the power button, and the PIN code wasn't asked ever. I didn't even get calls going out before I figured out that it was possible to permanently unlock the SIM, but I really don't like the idea of that.
Being the fiddler that I am, I of course had to start flashing XDA created ROMs instead, but nothing has helped so far. I haven't tried to modify the /efs/imei/keystr file yet as I don't have my phone here at the moment... but does anyone know what that is supposed to do?
What I've done that doesn't help the situation:
* Flashed the whole phone again with heimdall and the LPQ firmware.
* Installed Darky's LPQ based ROM
* Formatted everything I could see in CWM
* Factory reset and factory format (seems to do the same thing actually)
* probably more.
As a side note, if I downgrade to gingerbread, the lockscreen, SIM unlock and power button menu return but if I then upgrade again, I have the same situation. I'm baffled.

The keystr file maps the power and home buttons, I believe. Give it a shot, should solve your problem.

OK. Confirmed. Inserting that "ON" fixed everything for me. Thanks a bunch!

Thus, "whatever". Try what is contained within my link, if you're rooted. Should solve your problem. Or just ignore my suggestion again. Makes no difference to me.
See here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23636941#post23636941) for someone who was reporting the exact same problem as you, and that fixed their problem.
EDIT: oh look, the guy above had the same problem too, and this helped him.
Thanks everybody. I will try some solution. Or waitting for newer ROM.

So what settings do you have when you go into Settings-Security? Screen lock is the first option on my phone.
Can you see screen lock but not set it to anything?

Check for a /efs/imei/keystr file. You'll need root. If it doesn't exist, you'll need to create it, containing the word "ON".

What's did you mean by you can't lock the phone?
Were you trying to say that "your lockscreen is missing even after flashing so many ROMs"?

what I meant is that the phone is not locked to squeeze the lock button to turn off the screen and turn it back precionar but does not leave the lock screen, I have tried placing it in pattern but still the same .. and if I let down the lock button turns off quickly without leaving the box if you want to restart etc

I think he's saying that when pressing the power button to lock, then unlock, the lockscreen doesn't come up, but just unlocks the phone, and when he long presses power, it just shuts off the phone instead of presenting the power button menu.
OP, am I right?
If so, then you need to root your phone, create a file in /efs/imei called keystr, that contains the word ON, and set its permissions to rw-r--r--. There are a few different ways to do this.

Hi, that's exactly my problem after I used Odin to update my SS2 I9100G from Gingerbread to ICS 4.0.4. Can you please give me more details as to how to do this exactly? I have never rooted my phone so I don't know much.
Thanks a lot!!

If you are using a custom rom like cm I got rid of that problem when I flashed gapps.zip.
Edit : You haven't rooted huh? It's easy just like flashing a stock rom, just search, there are several guides regarding this matter.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.

Worked like a charm. Thanks
I have this strange but extremely irritating problem:
I Have this unique problem with my HTC Amaze phone; freezes and the screen become unresponsive, works by itself (open apps, close them, moves from one screen to other and zooms in/out on webpages without touching it).
Can someone advise how to fix it.
Advise - I'd say for starters you'll need to provide some more information. What ROM are you running? Rooted? S-ON/S-OFF? Recovery? The more info you provide, the better to help you solve the issue.
It sounds like something is making the screen freeze ie it has to little ram. The rest is probably delayed user input. It is knows how you have touched after the freeze and tries to carry out the commands later.
if your having issues with a custom rom, id suggest just wiping everything and flashing it over.. either that or see if anyone else on that rom has posted similar issues.. but overall sounds like the rom wasn't flashed properly...
I'm a Novice so I wont know if its rooted or which ROM it is. I got it from T-Mobile US and got the unlock code from them and unlocked it. Now I'm using it on Vodafone and it works fine but it does some time gives this issue. All I do to fix it (temp) is that I lock the phone and then unlock it using the power button.
How can I find all those info's that you have asked for?

if you haven't done anything to the phone... aka "unlocking bootloader, rooting, flashing custom recovery, s-off" if your phone is "STOCK" like how you bought it from the company and its giving you issues.. id suggest doing a factory reset of the phone from the settings menu.. if that doesn't work take it back to the company and explain to them that the phone is having issues.. because to me it doesn't sound like you did anything to the phone at all
