[Q] CM7: Not getting a lock screen

I recently flashed the latest version of Cyanogenmod on my g tablet and I love it. Everything works great except one thing...
There's no lock screen that appears when I wake it up or turn it on. It skips the unlock gesture, and the lock pattern that I set. I don't care about the first unlock so much as the second, since this thing has my google account information in it.
Has anyone run into this? I've checked every Cyanogenmod setting and regular Android setting I can think of:
CM Settings: Lockscreen Settings: General: Style Options: Rotary
: Lockscreen Gestures: None checked
Locations & Security Settings: Screen Unlock: Use Visible Pattern: Checked
: Change Screen Lock: Pattern set
Any ideas?
ETA: I should also add that the tablet doesn't seem to go to sleep on its own. I've changed the setting for screen off to 5 minutes.
Have you tried Settings --> CyanogenMod Settings --> Tablet Tweaks --> Disable Lockscreen?

Face palm. Thank you. I didn't think to look there. That was the problem.

[Q] Pattern lock and screen off with ICS 4.x

Hello,
I am using ICS 4.0.3, and have a problem with pattern lock (or pin lock) and screen off/on.
The problem occurs when I use any of the unlocker (examples of such unlocker: Nolock, Unkeylocker...).
The unlocker temporarily unlocks (so upon screen off then on, no pattern nor pin lock should be asked : this
is handy when I am at home, since there is no risk). The unlocker works well, but if I pull down the notification bar
and click on one of them (e.g. Gmail notification, SMS notification), then the pattern/pin lock is presented ! .
Howewer if the unlocker is set to Off (as if it does not exist), no problem pulling down the notification bar.
Of course at home I would like to have unlocker set to ON (so no pattern/pin lock presented upon screen off then on),
AND no problem clicking on the notification line (no pattern/pin lock presented).
The problem did not occur with Gingerbread.
Is there an explanation or better a solution to this problem?
Thank you.
Edit: the problem is seemingly due to unlocker application running with ICS:

[Q] Tripple Lock Screen

Hi,
I dropped my phone this morning and, believe it or not, when I switched it on there was a new (swipe) lock screen.
This new lock screen might be because of an application that's adding a lock screen, but I can't find out which.
So to test some suggestions.
I setup a PIN unlock (I need this for corporate e-mail)
I setup the swipe unlock
So when I know switch on my phone I have to
- swipe (because of the unknown lock app or something)
- swipe again (because of the swipe unlock I setup above)
- enter a pin (because of the setup above)
Ideally I only want the pin unlock, so when I remove the swipe unlock from the security settings, I'm left with
- swipe (because of the unknown lock app or something)
- enter a pin (because of the setup above)
I want to get rid of this unknown swipe lock.
I've gone through the apps I've installed (after I uninstalled a couple) and none of them should have a lock screen
Any ideas on how I can solve this problem
Thanks

[Q] ahortcut to lock the screen and turn off the phone

Hi there, on my old Nokia N8 I had to homescreen shortcuts:
- Quicklock: to lock the screen with one tap
- Power: to open the menu to turn off/reeboot/etc.. the phone
Is there something similar on android too?
I've looked thru the playstore, but I could not find what I was looking for
Screen Off and Lock is what are you looking for

Smart Lock woes

I have a pattern screen lock set up on my device. I also have enabled my car Bluetooth as a trusted device for Smart Lock.
It obviously recognises I am in the car as when I turn on my device I get the swipe to unlock screen but this then takes me to the pattern lock screen. I thought the point of Smart Lock was that it disabled the security for those trusted devices?
Am I doing something wrong or is there a hidden setting I am missing?

I think you should keep the bluetooth on
The Bluetooth is on, which is why I get the swipe screen but it doesn't disable the pattern lock.

For security reasons, when Smart Lock is enabled, after any connection to the trusted device the first unlock has to be using the predefined unlock of the phone, and after that the Smart Lock will work as expected until the connection is lost, and then again the same procedure. if the connection is lost
