I can't remove my lock screen , anyone know why.

Not sure why that isn't selectable, but there is an app called No Lock you could try.

It looks like you have an app or something that is an admin on your phone and it prevents it from being selected

Have you set a password or pin or pattern security lock? If so, I would guess that you need to disable that first. It looks like those options are still accessible. Otherwise, I really don't know (never seen it before).
Good luck!

It looks like you have your phone encrypted.
Having your phone encrypted requires you to have a lockscreen, otherwise the encryption means nothing.
I didn't encrypt it though.... I'm wonder if it is an admin app what would do it. I'm going tosee if I can disable the lock
What would happen if I cleared credentials?

So I just noticed I can get the notification bar to pull down while the screen is on lock screen.....is that a major security issue I found ?

If you can do it if you have lock then yes.

Well then great....HTC made a major issue again

you can pull it down, but you cant do anything till you unlock it. if oyu enable pin you probably cant pull it done. its working as intended.
I just put a screen lock on and you can't do it so there is no problem.

Itl open settings and goto home if you tap it. Just hope noone I know knows xD

It's not really a security issue and this is a feature of ICS, not an HTC implementation. If you have a password/code/pattern set you cannot actually get into the phone.

Hi guys,
I've been tethering my phone to a windows laptop via usb for about a month now with no problems. However, because of the lack of support for usb tethering on the mac, I'm forced to use wifi tethering with my mac.
The issue is that wifi tethering keeps disabling its self every so often (maybe 20 mins)
I have the international s3 with the latest available ota update.
Any suggestions?

I've noticed similar behavior myself. Seems to turn itself off when nothing is connected on mine. Haven't used it enough to know the details of the behaviour though.
Mind you I'm using a firmware from six weeks ago, so a lot could have been fixed in the builds/updates since. I figure it has been fixed because I've not seen any other reports of the bug.

Go to portable hotspot settings, hit the menu button then timeout settings, hit never timeout (or a time)

Brilliant. I hoped it might be something like that. Let's hope that solves it, thanks!

LOL. I never though of a menu there too. I feel pretty ashamed of myself right now. But, I was spot on on the timeout though
Thanks!

Yup, this was indeed the issue. Timeout removed and I managed to successfully sit there browsing for a few hours last night.

Is there any way to specifically password protect the process of install/uninstall rather then protecting each and every app that can perform such an operation.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Try and password protect settings app .... it will password protect settings but the install/uninstall process will also be protected.... hope it works!!

I'm assuming since its been two weeks since he posted this and hasn't posted anything more he figured it out. then again I've been wrong before.

For some reason, the time in the notification bar does not update unless I go into the lock screen and come back. Anyone else have this problem? Anything I can do to fix this?

Same thing happens to mine

I had to wipe cache. Then it worked. I kept trying to set alarms but they would never go off. Then I notice that the clock wouldn't change unless I unlocked screen.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
How do I clear cache... Im not rooted. This really drives me crazy and has made me late a couple of times already. Clock doesn't change until I turn the screen off.

I don't believe this is a Note 2 problem. I noticed today and on numerous occasions in the past 6 months my Thunderbolt has been doing this as well. It'll get stuck at a certain hour and won't update until after I start messing with the phone again.
It might be a network problem my boyfriends iPhone time gets stuck sometimes he's on Verizon if that helps?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
Thank you but never mind I'm retarded needed to simply restart it working fine now.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
I cleared cache which obviously made me restart the phone and now it's working fine. That was weird. l hope it doesn't happen again.

Title says it all. I keep on touching this accidentally, its driving me crazy

What are you talking about? Is this with stock or something? Just use TouchWiz lockscreen if so, much better anyway.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I think this screen is what he is taking about. You have it when you have a pin code lock like my work email app requires. It can get annoying.
