10.9.3 unlock freeze
Maverick 10.9.3.
Sometimes I cannot unlock the screensaver and need to reboot.
Is this a knwon issue ?
Thank You
JMB Brussels
After upgrading to 10.9.3, I've experienced two freezes.
Both happened when I was swtiching destops from full screen Safari mode (probably, arbitrary) to the next desktop. Looks like there is a deadlock bug in the code that switches between desktops.

IPhone 4 slide to unlock freezes- a solution.
Hi,
I'm glad I have this opportunity to share a solution to the iPhone 4 slide to unlock freeze problem. Some perliminary informatiom: iOS 5.1, 5.7 GB free on a 16 GB phone (no space issues). The phone froze on almost all of the unlock attempts. No backup and restore were attempted.
My solution: during my investigation I've tried to access the Passcode Lock (Settings -> General) and the phone froze for a few moments and sometimes returned to the home screen. I have managed to access the Passcode and turned the passcode off. After this I reset the passcode to something different and re-enabled passcode on. Since then there are no issues. If there is a DB it must have gone corrupted, resetting probably re-wrote the passcode. Hope this helps, though nothing is deffinitive.HI,
I have done more troubleshooting, and the results are positive so far - no more freezing!
@SimplyPostive reported something unique: that the problem only happened while in the 3G network and not when in a wifi network. I tested this and I had similar results. The freezing only occured while I was on the 3G network and not when I was on a wifi network.
This caused me to think that something might be causing the phone to freeze while connecting to the 3g network.... or maybe there is a data packet lingering around that is causing the issue. Whatever it is, I decided that I'd reset "network settings" only.
I reset network settings and the problem has gone away. Now, regardless whether I'm on 3G or wifi, the phone no longer freezes during swipe to unlock as reported in this thread.
I'm going to re-install my grand theft auto game and bring down my availabe space to 730 mb again. Hopefully it all works as expected. If it doesn't, I'll report it, else it's all good to go.
good luck.

Palm Centro GSM Unlocked freezing issues still unresolved?
Hi, I'm one of the many many (yes, we exist and we ARE MANY, even if Palm keeps ignoring us) unhappy Centro owners that purchased a smartphone that (ironically) doesn't work as a phone... I'm writing from Mexico and I bought a Palm Centro with Telcel.
I don't think it's necessary to again describe the problem because it's been discussed a lot here and in other respected and popular Treo/PDA forums... just google "Centro freeze" and you'll see for yourself.
I just wanted to know a couple of things:
1.Is Palm ever going to adress this issue as an official bug and offer a ROM/Firmware update solution or are they cowardly going to turn they're backs on us?
2. Has anyone suffering from this issue tried the custom ROM update offered by some guy at TreoCentral and did it work?
3. Flashing and/or changing the ROM of my quasi-phone voids warranty?
I hope someone can help us, the once satisfied and loyal Palm users now turned into desperate postin/ranting machines...
Post relates to: Centro (Unlocked GSM)Since this is the offical forum of Palm, I and many other Centro users would like an offical answer on this, please.

IPhone 4 slide to unlock freezes
When I slide to unlock the slider itself freezes at the far side for around 10 seconds before getting to the Enter Passcode screen or it freezes after entering the passcode and I just get the wallpaper for around 10 seconds before all of the apps appear.
It started intermittently a few days ago and has become increasing common so that it's near enough every time I unlock now. Does any one have any ideas what's wrong and how to fix it?

Updates will not download and have frozen my phone.
With the release of iOS 6, I was subjected to a torrent of app updates adding support for iOS6. I had not yet (and did not plan to) performed the iOS update, but I figured I would just allow the apps to update. There were about 20 updates, so I just reveiwed them all and hit "update all". Upon doing so, my phone became inoperable, paralysed by the process of downloading and installing the apps, and has been frozen in this state for 24 hours.
I can activate the lock screen, but unlocking the phone occurs after about a minute delay. Once in the phone, I am unable to open anything. Sometimes an app will start but will always cash within seconds. I have rebooted, only to find it in the same state. I have attempted to sync, restore, reset... none worked. I always get errors like, "sync failed to start", "there was an error connecting to the iphone", etc...
Because the phone continuously cycles (autonomously) through unlock, freeze, lock, lockscreen appears, unlock, freeze... it does not allow the computer to do anything, I can not pause the downloads, I can not delete the apps, I can not do ANYTHING. I have a $300 paperweight.
Please help!One approach, if you haven't tried it would be to do a restore...then when putting your stuff back on after the restore, incrementally add the apps back in....
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If that doesn't work, you could try dfu mode....I haven't tried this in iOS 6, but imagine it works the same...
DFU mode[1] is a state that you can put your iPhone into where it can interface with iTunes but does not load the iPhone operating system or boot loader (this is what really differs DFU mode from recovery mode). DFU stands for Device Firmware Update.
While connected to PC, running iTunes, hold down Home and Power( button on upper right edge) button for exactly 8 seconds.
Release the power button. Restore message will appear in iTunes. The device will be recognized by iTunes, but no display will appear on the device itself. The lack of a display on the device will verify that it is in dfu mode.

Hey there i wonder if anyone can help me ,
my blackberry every so often decides to have a turn and theres so many faults with it
- the keypad starts typing nonsence- numbers and caps letter and misses out the 'e' letter
- turns itself off
- wen i go to unlock it i have to hold down the mute button for ages before it unlocks
-freezes and doesn't let me answer calls or look at messages
all these faults are really frustrating because it's not always like it.
vie tried restoring it several times and it has the new software so i know its not that.
if anyone can help id be grateful!Well, devices like this are routinely sold as locked to one carrier.
You can check it on yours.
To determine if your BlackBerry is "unlocked" for use on carriers other than for which it is branded:
1. On your BlackBerry, go to Options > Advanced Options > Sim Card.
2. At that screen type MEPD (see note below) on your keyboard. A new menu will pop-up.
If your BlackBerry has a SureType keyboard (71xx and 81xx devices) you will need to double-tap the P, so the actual keys entered become M E P P D.
3. Look for Network in the list.
4. If your device is "unlocked", it should say Disabled or Inactive. If it says Active, it's still locked to that carrier.

Last night I turned my iPod touch 4g off randomly and then when I went to turn it back on and went to unlock the screen it froze up right there and will not unlock to the home screen to where all my apps and all that are. Ever since that happened the iPod keeps showing the apple logo repeatedly, as well as a screen being completely blank when still turned on. Also when i plug in the iPod to the computer it recognizes it for a second but the iPod does nothing and shuts off and repeats in showing the apple logo and blank black screen. I can get it to the home screen where the slide to lock button is but every time i even attempt to slide it, it freezes up and doesn't do it.
I also having been trying to restore it by plugging in the cord and pressing the home button to get the screen with the usb cord to pop up but no matter what i do, it will not let me turn the iPod off period because every time i keep trying to do that it just shows the apple logo and all of what i said up above again. I have also seen it get a white screen to show a few times , which i assume means the white screen of death. I have never seen that screen before this happened.
I know this is not making any sense whatsoever but this is very hard to put into words in explaining. I have searched the internet but i can't find a single problem that sounds like this one in solving to fix it. The iPod is on right now as i'm typing this. I haven't attemtped to push the buttons down again to fix as i would assume maybe to just leave it alone as i sleep through the night in hopes of it maybe working or even dying. I've only had this iPod for 4 months now and i just don't understand why it won't let me turn it off completely or work properly for me to restore it.Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a new (from Apple) unlocked iPhone3gs. I cannot get the video recorder to work. When I take video I am not offered any options at the start or the end of filming. The screen freezes when I hit the red stop button. But that's it. I have to hit the home button to get out of that. And none of the v-recordings can be found on my phone anywhere.
Also I'm having trouble with Bluetooth. My Mac says it's paired with the phone, but the phone says not; even though It accepts the pairing code from the Mac. I'm getting very frustrated with these problems. I came on here to find the user manuel, but can only find the fingertip manuel and the product license manuel. Both of which I have in hard copy.
And the most annoying thing is the sound on the calls. I can hardly hear the caller.
Anyone got any helpful advice?
Thanks, ElizabethRobert or Elizabeth...
Sync media using iTunes, not Bluetooth.
When the screen freezes on the iPhone, try "resetting".
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
And this link is for the iPhone 3GS user guide > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS3.1_User_Guide.pdf

Serously doubt this is a "new" iPhone 3GS. More likely refurbished. -

Hey
Just wondering if anyone has a similar problem with their N97. When I go to unlock my keypad with the slide device on the site my phone will often completely freeze up and I will have to remove the battery. This has become rather annoying now. Does anyone have a similar problem or have any advice?
