I had my lockscreen set to a pattern and I wanted to change it to just swipe. I went into the settings and changed it. I also selected to have shortcut on the lockscreen. Now, the screen just keeps flashing up for a few seconds, then turning off, over and over. I'm running Jelly Beans 22. What can I do?

hi guys not sure if this is normal or not
But whenever i reboot my phone, my stock lockscreen will show up before it gets to widgetlocker, is this normal ?
It's normal, it takes time for the phone to recognize widgetlocker and its default settings.
I've noticed that the stock lockscreen never shows up when the phone is protected by a password. When I turn on the screen, I am automatically prompt to enter my password without ever seing the lockscreen. The only time the lockscreen shows is when the phone is not locked.
I spoke with Samsung this morning and they said this is how it's supposed to work but I just think it's pretty weird to have it working this way. I'm coming from an HTC and the lockscreen always shows when you turn on the screen, whether the phone is protected by a password or not. Same thing on CM7.
So my question is as follows: Is there any way to force the stock lockscreen to show-up prior to being prompt to enter the password? The reason I'd like to have the lockscreen showing is that it gives you the possibility to see some notifications from the lockscreen, and launch the given application right away.
I know there are some lockscreen apps out there but the problem with them is that they often fail to launch (takes a few seconds before they kick in). Also, when the phone is still unlocked (I have a 5 mins delay prior to locking), I'd get to see two lockscreens back to back (app + stock), which is annoying.
Thanks!
I just flashed back to bone-stock a few days ago, build 1.26.502.12. When I'm on the lock screen, I can only drag the shortcuts I have set there up right after I reboot the phone. Any other time, like if I lock my phone and then go back to the lock screen, those apps don't respond to touch and I can only drag the unlock icon. Anyone know what's up with that? Is that a common bug, or a setting somewhere?
Hi folks,
Wonder if anyone has encountered this before.
Just rebooted my Ultra, and the Xperia Lockscreen has vanished. Cleared the data and forced stop with no change.
I'm left with the default JellyBean 4.3 lockscreen with just a black wallpaper. Can unlock the phone and all the widgets are still there.
I had inserted a micro sd car before rebooting. Any ideas what could be causing this?
Cheers.
Hmm, uninstalled updates and it's back again. Strange.
Did you go into you settings and choose a lock screen option? Might have gotten set to "no lock screen" by default???
MTK phone, CM12.1, and doesnt have an option to turn tap to wake off, In gestures or in display, I know it should as google tells me it should, but it doesnt. This is on CM12, or resurrection remix, or crdroid, or pacman rom.... none have the option to turn it off. So in my jeans my phone keeps waking up and doing stuff in my pocket. Tried a pin or a pattern but it ends up opening emergency call and typing hundreds of numbers. All this is wasting battery. So... how can I either get rid of tap to wake lock screen, or completely remove the emergency call button. Gravity box USED to have the option, but doesnt now and some xposed lock screen apps hide the writing for it, but its still there. So am looking for:
disabling tap to wake lockscreen
removing the emergency call option completely.
removing the lockscreen completely.
A new lockscreen with NO notifications, nothing extra (tried zui but hated that slide up settings thing)
any of these fixed is great.
Can anyone tell me what its actually called within the ROM? Something I can delete before I flash a rom, to stop it working?
ANY help appreciated.
