Bug: Lock screen / Simple PIN freezes up (Pre 2, webOS 2.0.1)

Hi,
I have a Palm Pre 2 (North America, unlocked) and have experienced the same bugs in the lock screen with both version 2.0.0 and 2.0.1:
When the Simple PIN secure unlock is activated, and the phone is left alone for a while, the next time an unlock is attempted the normal Simple PIN cloudy background is shown but without any number pad or other controls on top of it!! A simple turn-off-turn-on of the screen is usually enough to fix it. But it is still annoying enough that I have disabled Simple PIN for this sole reason.
IMHO such a basic feature needs to be better tested and fixed ASAP. Bugs like this cannot make it into the Verizon version of the Pre 2 if it is to be successful (and if people such as myself are to feel comfortable recommending it).
On a related note, I feel like it is rather counterintuitive that the Simple PIN requires an entire second lock screen... Why not just replace the normal lock screen with the Simple PIN (when Simple PIN is active)? Or better yet, make a cool sliding pattern unlock like on Android--seems a lot nicer not to have to lift your finger from the screen....
Thanks for listening and of course, for making an awesome OS!!!
Post relates to: Pre 2 p102una (Unlocked NA)

I have this problem, as well. I have an unlocked Pre 2 running 2.1.0 on AT&T. I can't pinpoint when the issue arose, because I only noticed it when I went in to delete a bookmark one day. I got this phone in June (this year) and immediately performed the OTA update. So I think this happened over time...not as a result of the OS update process itself. Like, maybe after so many bookmarks were saved or after so many web pages were added to the Launcher or something.
Update - I just went ahead and selected "Clear Bookmarks" which reset the Bookmarks list and the Launcher. Now, it's working again.

  • Can't reject a call from lock screen with pin password

    When I set a PIN code for my iPhone with iOS7 "7.0.2" and recieve a call, I don't get an option to reject that call directly!
    The only valid options on the lock screen is either to set a reminder to call back the caller or reject with message. Is there any hidden feature behind this? or Apple really intended that?
    Attached 2 screen shots for a caller
    While screen is locked with PIN password
    While screen is unlocked

    It has been this way for some time. This is how you would decline a call from the lock screen, and then declining a call from the open screen is how you have it showing.

  • [SOLVED]Lock screen in Gnome freezes X

    Hi, everyone. When the screen locks on my laptop it freezes the entire X. It tries to dim the screen before the lock and in the middle of the process it freezes. The desktop stays "half visible". The mouse works, but Gnome doesn't react to anything. I need to enter the init 3 level and go back to 5. This is really annoying since it makes it impossible to work normally and I have to constantly think about not locking the screen.
    This is my VGA controller according to lspci:
    VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
    I tried to check for errors in .xssession-errors but it is impossible to find anything of importance there since it's full of davmail errors etc.
    I've searched the forums but only found some issues regarding old kernel versions and I'm on the latest (3.4.4-2).
    Any ideas?

    I'm experiencing the same issues, on a desktop, since this morning.
    I have an NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 440] (rev a1)  (as stated by lspci), and I have all the new updates for nouveau, X, and libdrm. I had my PC up for a long time and had to reboot, so I'm not sure which kernel I was running before I started having this issue, but I'm on 3.4.4-2-ARCH now. I suspect it was from the update from 3.3.8 to 3.4.4.
    Is rolling the kernel back a good idea? Thanks for any help.
    I'm not sure if kernel downgrade would help you since we still haven't identified the problem (we don't know if it's kernel related). But you could try and get back to us with the results...

  • Intermittent lock screen PIN input on Yoga 13

    About 1/3 of the time when I swipe the lock screen on the Yoga 13 to enter a PIN, I get a large touch screen PIN pad that pops up to touch the digits, which is the desired outcome.  Why is it that the other 2/3 of the time there is no pop up and I must enter the digits from the keyboard rather than being presented with the touch screen input option?

    Any update on this? I think there is a major bug in their software. I find that if you lock your screen and wake while in laptop mode, the virtual pin pad will automatically appear and stay there until you finish typing your pin. If you lock your screen and attempt to wake while in stand, tent, or tablet moden, the virtual pin pad does not automatically appear. In addition, while in these modes, when you press the input prompt to make the virtual pin/keyboard appear, it only appears for brief moment and then disappears-sometimes even while you are still typing. This is definitely a bug. I bought this laptop yesterday and found this issue within 30 minutes of playing with it at home. I submitted a help ticket yesterday regarding this issue. The tech eventually had me restore to factory conditions. After installing all the latest updates, I cam CONFIRM that this issue STILL persists! This is not me accidentally tapping outside of the pin/keyboard and causing it to minimize. This does it all on its own, and the tech was supposedly able to see this issue when he remotely took over my laptop. I have Yoga 2 2-in-1 11 inch.

  • IOS7 has some bugs, Swipe changing lock screen! iphonehassomebugs

    Hi everyone,
    Iphone has some bugs(Part 1)
    Check this video for my very first bug experience,
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK_nIq4b82s&feature=youtu.be
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Keep the lock screen wallpaper and the home screen wallpaper different,
    2. Swipe right to unlock and swipe to the left immediately after you reach the right-end. Watch video for more reference.
    Other bugs on the way! .
    Regards,
    Sathish.

    Hmm, I have different wallpapers (one of my photo's for my lock screen and and just plain black for my home screen) and mine still does not do that.
    Try setting them both to something different, but simple - say different colors of one of the default screens.  Or just try one any pair of the default screens instead of your own custom pictures.  Does it still do it?  I cannot seem to get my iPhone to duplicate that no matter what I try with it.
    You can submit the info to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html  but try and give them as much details as you can, of anything you have tried that either does not change the abnormal behaviour or that does fix it.

  • IOS 7 lock screen hacked could access photos with bug

    iOS 7 lock screen being hacked by bug can access photos without pass code.

    Guys chill, the solution is simple-try it and let me know:
    Go to: Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut > (then tick Invert Colors)
    This will access the "Invert Colors" shortcut when you press the home button 3 times - and it will prevent the multitasking while locked option from coming, hence your phone won't be hacked and your photos are safe
    Let me know if it works for you!
    Cheers

  • My lock screen keeps freezing ios 7.1

    Hi guys,
    I want to know if I am alone in this issue or if it is widespread?
    Since updating my iphone 5 to ios 7.1 my lock screen freezes. Not all the time, mainly if there is a notification of a text etc. I have to turn the phone off and on and it sorts it but it shouldn't be happening surely?
    Am I alone in this? My touchscreen was fine until after the update.

    Have you tried restarting the phone or reset all settings?

  • Iphone 5 / iOS 6.0 bug: Video sound no longer playing in lock screen

    Hi,
    With my iPhone 4 I was able to listen so the sound of a video, even if I went to the lock screen. With my iPhone 5 and iOS 6.0 this is no longer possible. When I start e.g., a music video in the video app and
    then go to the lock screen, the video an sounds stops. A double click on the home button shows the play button, but if pressed, the sound of the video won't play. If I press the forward / rewind button, a track of the music player will start to play. With previous versions listening to videos was possible while being on the lock screen / screen was turned off. Is there a fix for this bug? Has anyone the same problems? Would be great to listen to my music videos again...
    Bye
    Chris

    I'm having the same problem. Incredibly frustrating as this was a major use of the iphone when I had IOS5.
    Apple, please fix this!

  • In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).
