HT4623 iOS 6 auto-lock problem

Since I have updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6, the auto-lock button doesnt work anymore.
In addition, after pushing the button, my iPhone starts to oscillate between the "power off" and "unlock" pages.
The same behavior happens also during the execution of different applications after a few seconds.
Under thes conditions, my iPhone is now unusable.
No clear for me how to step back to iOS 5 until this bug is fixed by Apple.

I use assitive touch as well but not because I need assistance. Some things I just find quicker to do by using it.
Since updating my iPhone 4 (not S) to iOS 6 yesterday (OTA), I'm also experiencing Auto-Lock not working 100% of the time. I've always had the auto-lock time set to it's 2 minute default and under 5.1.1, it has *always* auto-locked. Then today, I put the phone down for about 30 minutes after a brief use. I came back to the phone to find the screen still on with the battery level dropped as well cause of it. I had NO additional apps running...
I am experimenting now and it *seems* that if auto-lock is set to 1 minute, it will auto-lock correctly. It may be that the 2 minute setting is what's causing the issue. As I said, I'm still testing this, again with no additional apps running in my testing...stay tuned.

PassCode (Auto Lock) Problems

My iPhone is PassCode locked, however the only option I have for auto lock is immediately. My wife's iPhone4 has options like immediately, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 minutes. Any idea what's happening?
Thanks

Seems this is a bug. I've read it in several different forums. A workaround is to use the iPhone COnfiguration Utility to make and install a profile on your phone which will re-enable the missing settings. Apparently, this bug pops up after one uses the "Reset Settings" button, which I had done previously.

Auto lock problem with Shuffle 4th gen.

On power up, automatically enters button lock.
I'm then unable to take off the lock (hold play button for >3 seconds)
I have to switch off, then have a second or 2 to use controls before it locks itself again
Tried Reset/Restore etc. Any suggestions please!

Tried Reset/Restore etc. Any suggestions please!
A restore would have eliminated the possibility of software glitch/error so the problem is more than likely hardware related meaning you'll need to have the Shuffle serviced or replaced.

HT4623 IOS 6.1.3 problems

iPad mini has lost icon for Safari and App Store. It will not sync wirelessly OR through USB connection with Mac Book Pro 13"
Tried hard set. No luck. When you hold down an app to delete, you get wiggling icons but no "X" to click to delete. Any one else dealing with this??
Thanks for any help you might give. I'm giving a workshop for teachers in a few days and I really need to get this resolved!

Auto-lock doesn't work after updating iOS 6.

I'm using iphone 4s. After updating iOS 6, the auto-lock function doesn't work anymore. I left it for 10 minutes and when i came back, the screen was still on although the auto-lock time is 2 minutes. I tested many times, tried to reboot but it didnt help. But the screen auto-lock is still working. Does anyone have problem like me and know how to fix it ?

Are you using Assistive Touch?

Re: IOs 6: Auto Lock Bug iPhone 4S (Updated)

Auto lock does not work reliably

since updating to ios 6, auto lock function does not always work. never had this problem with the previous ios. what can i do about it?

Have you checked what the timing is for auto locking on your phone?
Before I upgraded to iOS6 it was set to 1 minute so it felt like it locked instantly. After upgrading, iOS 6 moved my lock time to 5 minutes. I had to change the autolock time back to 1 minute.

5 minute Auto-Lock not engaging on certain webpages

Hi Apple Support Forums,
I have been testing iPads in our organisation for a few weeks now, and one of our iPad users discovered a fairly major bug in iOS 4.2
If:
(Mobile)Safari is left open with either: adelaidenow.com.au or theaustralian.com.au (and possibly other News Corporation newspaper sites, but not news.com.au)
Auto-Lock is set to 5 minutes (as per our organisations MobileConfig passcode settings)
iPhones and iPads will not lock. The screen will not even dim, even after the auto-lock time has expended.
This was discovered when one of our users left adelaidenow.com.au running on an iPad on a table and left it to answer a phonecall. The device had not locked after their phone call.
Procedure to reproduce:
I opened Safari on the iPad and accessed adelaidenow.com.au. I let the page load (while providing input, moving finger) and then stopped interacting with the ipad. (left idle).
I set up a stopwatch and verified that after 7 minutes it had not locked.
The device had been idle for 7 minutes without input and had not already locked.
To verify that it was not Safari (the app, not the web page) that was not preventing lock, I loaded au.yahoo.com (while providing input) and then left it idle.
After 5 minutes the screen locked. (as expected)
I then loaded www.theaustralian.com.au and left it idle.
I step a stopwatch going and after 6 minutes it had not locked.
I tested this against http://au.yahoo.com and http://abc.net.au/news and the iPad/iPhone will lock as expected.
I believe that cause for this is that newsCorp is using a custom refresh script in javascript, rather than a standard META REFRESH tag. Somehow this javascript is fooling iOS into thinking that the device is not idle.
This is a fairly major security hole, as the device is violating a locked-down MobileConfig.
Could others test this and find any other sites that prevent iOS from auto-locking?

Same problem here, after istalling ios 6 on my iphone 4s my auto lock didnt work, but when i closed my assistive touch it worked again..I didnt have this problem in the 5.1.1 version. I dont wanna close the assistive touch tough....annoying problem !!!
Another problem occured in the settings of alarm clock. The sensivity of the on-off button is not as good as in the 5.1.1 version...
Hope they will fix this problem soon !!!
Is there anyone else who hava the same problems??
Best regards...

Has anyone else had the problem where Siri on iOS 6 locks the phone after sending a text using a Bluetooth headset. I have the auto lock turned off but I have had it happen many times.

Siri is locking my iPhone 5 running ios6 after sending a text message using my Jawbone icon HD Bluetooth earpiece. Sometimes it will lock before the text is even sent. I have the auto lock turned off.

I have this problem too. Auto lock is off and Siri can be used from the lock screen but this defeats the purpose of hands free usage for example when you are on a bicycle and can't use the phone normally. After sending a message or a reply to one Siri locks the phone and you cannot hear new messages until you unlock the phone which can be potentially dangerous!
I'd love to see if there is a solution as I can't see any option in settings (either Siri settings or pass lock settings) to fix this.

IPhone 3G after iOS 4 does not wakes after Lock or auto lock.

Hi,
I have an iPhone 3G (not S), I upgraded it to iOS 4.0 on Tuesday June 22.
it took around 2-3 hours for the whole process, but it all workd out fine.
Now I have two issues, one major one minor.
Major issue:
Every time I lock my phone, by using the (sleep/wake button), or if the phone gets auto locked, and if I leave it for a minute or so. I cannot wake it up by pressing the Home menu button (the round button in front). The only way to bring it back to life is to hard boot the phone by pressing the sleep/wake button and the Home menu button together for 10 second. This boots the os back to life, takes around 1-2 minutes. While the phone is inactive, if I make a call to it, on the calling side I hear the ring tone, but the phone lies dead like a stone. So no incomingcalls or SMS, while the phone is in this state, and the caller thinks I am not picking it up.
So far I am avoiding problems by not locking the phone at all, but that is eating up my battery.
Minor problem: as many have mentioned earlier also, it has gone too slow. And a substantially short battery life, accompanied by unusual heating.
Tried restoring the phone using iTunes 9.2, I am hitting 1602 error there, so tried restoring in the "Recovery mode", it worked fine, but the problems persists.
Another thing I noticed was that I can never switch off the phone too.
Every time I press and hold the sleep/wake button and initiate the Power off mode, either of the two things happen.
1) The circular star loading animation starts, gets stuck a some point, and suddenly the phone boots back to life after some time.
2) The circular star animation continues, for hours, untill the phone runs out of battery and dies out itself.
So far I have'nt seen a clean shut down after the upgrade.
what to do....

JQuery animate not working in Safari after auto lock on IOS 8.2

Hi Guys,
We are developing a browser-based video platform which makes use of jQuery's .animate function and am encountering some problems. The animate function is used to simulate inertia when dragging buttons around. This all works perfectly, until the iPad auto-locks after 2 minutes. Once the iPad is unlocked, all inertia is gone. there's no error that I can see, the animate just doesn't work. Refreshing the page doesn't restore functionality, neither does re-entering the address manually into the address bar or navigating to the apps page and back. The only way to restore functionality is to double-tap the iPad's Home button to bring up the apps menu and swipe Safari up to close it.
'It's the code' I hear you cry. Well, I have 2 iPads for testing. One is an iPad 3, the other is a brand new iPad air. Both are on IOS 8.2. The old iPad works perfectly all the time in the exact same condition when the iPad air fails. I've also tried factory resetting the iPad air to try to resolve this but without success.
I've also done a lot of research into this and have seen the posts on stackoverflow saying a few people have resolved the issue with the upgrade from 8.1 -> 8.11 (I also had this issue on 8.1, the version that came with the iPad). Alas I still have it on 8.2.
Also, before anyone tells me to use CSS3 transitions, I use this on other platforms which work perfectly and do not support CSS3.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.
Problem iPad:
Version: 8.2 (12D508)
Model: MD785B/B
Working iPad:
Version: 8.2 (12D508)
Model: MC705B/A

Mmmmm... this humble pie is delish.
Ok, so after managing to reproduce this error on my old iPad I think I have it sussed. It's not the iPad's fault entirely. It seems that when you lock the iPad is can mess with the timestamps on events. Even after the app is reopened the timestamp seems to think that its back when it was locked. I've worked around this and used getTimestamp. Seems a few other people have seen this as well.
Hopefully anyone in the same boat will see this. Thanks to anyone who read it.

I recently did the iOS 7.0.2 update, now I'm unable to purchase apps. "App could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later. ". I have tried a few of the suggestions and nothing has worked. Reset,change auto lock time on main screen, now what??

This sorted it for me:
Backup your iPhone to iCloud (I believe backing up to iTunes will work too). Now go to "Settings --> General --> Reset --> Erase All Content and Settings" to completely restore your iPhone to factory settings. Assuming you've backed up to iCloud, you'll be asked when setting up your iPhone if you want to restore from an iCloud backup. Choose that option and once your iPhone has restored itself from your backup, this annoying problem will finally be gone! (was for me anyway).
To restore from an iTunes backup, connect your iPhone to your computer, load iTunes. Click the File menu and select Devices > Restore from Back up.

Battery drain problem - question if auto lock is problem

Just upgraded from iPad2 to Retina iPad. Went smoothly with cloud backup and download but experiencing sever battery drain. Went to use it 2 days ago after limited use prior evening (taking minutes in Evernote for 2 hr meeting) and had shut off. Restarted and had 2% battery and totally useless. Recharged overnight to 100% but had no demands yesterday. That evening opened up and found I had 21% remaining.
Did battery problem search at this site, made some adjustments, and recharged to 100% for this AM. Two primary adjustments were stopping Bluetooth and Autolock changed from never (iPad2 setting) to 10 minutes and wondering if the autolock feature is the problem as discussed in the next paragraph. Others I didn't change, gmail set to fetch/manual and Cloud is push. WiFi on and disabling like suggested in some threads would be a royal PITA having to turn it back on every time and counter to the Apple vision of useability. App Store is set to advise of updates. Each of those were like on the iPad2 where had no battery problem, except I didn't activate cloud until just prior to the upgrade. IOS on both machines fully upgraded to IOS 6.01.
Interesting discovery this AM. While I set the Auto-Lock to 10 minutes last evening, the the iPad Cover lock/unlock is set "ON". It appears that the 10 minute Auto Lock is working, however, the automatic lock/unlock is not which would explain the battery drain when set autolock was set to never. This AM as I opened it, had to manually unlock it as opposed to having the cover unlock it for me. As I close the cover and peek under the edge can still see the iPad illuminated until the 10 minutes kicks in...then manually unlock it again. The cover I am using is the heavy duty RooCase with magnetic clip and had no problem when using it with the iPad2. (Great case by the way!) Any suggestions? Thanks.
