Screen lock while in call bug

THE most annoying bug for me so far - I got the phone set to automatically lock (pattern unlock) after 2 minutes of the screen being off. If I receive a call, proximity sensor hits the screen off as you'd expect. 2 minutes later I have to wake the screen manually with the power button, unlock it just to be able to end the call.

I've tested this here both for incoming and outgoing calls but this doesn't happen for me. Which software version do you have in your phone? You can see this under Settings -> About phone.
Are you sure that the other person has not already ended the call?

When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, then when I unlock the phone it automatically redials the failed call,

When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, the problem arises whenever I unlock the phone, it automatically redials the last failed call, it doesn't do this with missed calls that are on the locked screen, if any. It is really annoying as sometimes the phone doesn't respond to attempts to end the call before it connects to the number. I then have to explain that it was my phone and not me, I look like an idiot, which I don't really need any extra help with!! Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to stop missed call from showing in the locked screen but it might be associated with the failed calls and therefore be the only resolution

I have had the same issue which was driving me mad but think I have just found a way around it. In iOS 7 if you swipe up on the lock screen to access quick settings and go into timer then click the home button you get into the phone without calling the person back. Not a great 'fix' but hope it works for you. Come on Apple this isn't good enough, fix this bug otherwise you will lose your customers.

When my screen locks while streaming music or podcast, the radio or podcast stops.

When my iPhone 5s screen locks while I am streaming a podcast or live radio, it pauses. What do I need to do to stop this short of adjusting the screen to never lock? This is hugely disruptive while running.

Visit the Apple Store and request for a replacement. Cheers!

IOS 4.3 - screen locked during incoming call

Hello, all!
I have interresting problem after I update iOS 4.2 up to iOS 4.3 on my iPhone 4. Sometimes (1 time per each 10-20 times) when incoming call is received, ipone playing the ringtone, vibration is generated and I see on display usually information "incoming call from..." and slide button to receive call - then touch screen of iPhone becomes fully locked and I can not receive the call ! Hardware pushbuttons (power and volume control) still working, but display is fully locked! In this case it is only one way to answer the call - using bluetooth headset. Any other way and any other operations have no any effect - iPhone still playing rington and still waiting when I answer the call.
This situation occurs aproximately on every 10th or 20th incoming call - i.e. one or two times per each day. And, of cource, this is usually very important call that i can not answer because of this stupid situation.
The problem was detected after I update iOS 4.2 up to iOS 4.3 via iTunes.
So, please tell by wich way it is possible to fix this bug and where I have to send notification to solve this problem in the shortest time?
Thanks!

I'm experiencing what is I believe to be the same issue with my iPhone 4, and have been suffering in silence for about a week.
iPhone 4 model MC603X with Modem Firmware 04.10.01, 16Gb, cheap silicone cover, Vodafone NZ as my carrier.
My screen locks after 1 minute of inactivity as it should with my settings. Perhaps 1 call in 5, or 1 call in 10, the screen wakes up and displays called ID information etc correctly, but I cannot swipe to answer the call. The touch screen simply fails to respond.
If I push the power button briefly to silence the ringtone, this does not make a difference. The iPhone has to be locked (and screen turned off), then push a hardware button to wake up the display, and then I can swipe to unlock the device.
This is only since iOS 4.3 and unfortunately iOS 4.3.1 has not changed this behaviour.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers, Mike

Screen display while making calls

I have a bb torch 9800, when I make or receive calls my backlight turns off and my screen is blank until I end call, I cannot even use call waiting, speakerphone, etc b'cuz of this issue. Pls help!!

My cheek/ear selects things on touch screen while taking calls. Proximity sensor problem?

Hello all
Had my X3 Compact for a couple of months now and really liking it.
APART from the fact then when I am on a call the screen still seems to be a little sensitive to touch.
I hear beeps of things being selected. Very often when I finish the call I see the screen is on Notifications or Quick Settings screen, or sometimes the Date and Time screen. Sometimes I notice that my cheek/ear has turned on Bluetooth from the Quick Settings screen.
Sometimes while on a long call (ie more time in which to involuntarily press things) the other person will suddenly not hear me anymore - no doubt due to imprecise cheek/ear selection!
Is there something wrong with the Proximity Sensor? I have tested the Sensor with the available diagnostic and it seems functional. And my peripheral vision tells me that the screen goes black as I raise the phone to my ear.
I've heard that this model can occasionally overheat, but I've never noticed/felt any dramatic peaks in temperature.
But something is clearly wrong.
As I said I have tested the Proximity Sensor.
I have not dropped or damaged my phone.
I do not use any kind of screen protector or case.
My software is up to date.
Any thoughts/ideas would be very welcome!!
(I have contracted the phone the EE in the UK - I have not contacted them yet as I thought it would be best to go straight to the manufacturers.)
Thanks very much
Jamie

Well I have been facing this issue since the first day itself and this isnt any issue at all!!
What happens is when we answer a call, out phone isnt in lock state and also we arent holding our phone constantly in one position to our ears/cheeks so theres rubbing of the screen (due to our ears/cheek) which eventually swipes down the Status bar Quick settings and then randomly turns on any feature icon our ear.cheek touches. And we keep hearing some beeps.
So what I do is once I answer a call I always make it a point/habit to manually lock the phone via Power button. This way I have found my personal solution to this problem.
And this is the only solution for this nagging issue
Also if you want, you can completely remove all icons which bother you from Quick settings so that even if your phone isnt locked while on call, nothing will get activated in the background.
So follow my steps and enjoy your Z3 without worrying about this issue.

Screen Locking During Screen Share Access

When I access my iMac from another Mac using Screen Sharing my iMac system is then open for anyone walking by to access. Is there any way to use Screen Sharing for access and keeping the physical screen on the system being accessed locked? I know there are ways to do this using a third-party VNC, but that requres using a non-standard port for access. Is there some working-around for Screen Sharing, or perhaps some way to change the port that Screen Sharing is using (and if so, does this work?)???

I don't understand what you're asking here... about the screen locking during a call "over the time" set.
Could you please explain?

Q10 Screen Lock

Hi
I am using a monitor to view my q10 - specifically for BBM as i have many i chat with for work.
i thought it would be ideal however the screen lock keeps locking after the max option of 5 minutes.
I have tried going through the security settings which would normally work but my exchange account demands a password and therefore i can not deactivate this to also deactivate the screenlock option.
are there any other ways to stop the screen lock while i am connected to the monitor or fully?
help!

Has this device security password worked correctly in the past on this Q10?
Are you sure you're entering any numbers with the ALT key pressed or an uppercase letter with the SHIFT key pressed?

This sometimes happens if you have a case or screen protector on the phone. IF you have one of these remove it and see if it makes any difference

IPhone 6 screen locked up while on call

My iPhone 6 screen locked up while I was on a call - the screen went black and all buttons/touchscreen was unresponsive. I had just upgraded to iOS 8.1 earlier this morning and placed a call. I was put on hold and wanted to hang up when I noticed my screen was black. No buttons would work, so I took it out of my case and tried again with no luck. I finally got it to shut down from holding the Home & On/Off buttons simultaneously. Anyone else have this problem?

I had a similar problem. I will be talking on the phone and next thing I know the screen is black & unresponsive. The apple logo comes up and than the call continues. I am not sure what is causing this but it has happened several times to me AND has also happened to a friend of mine.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Can't remove the screen lock by PIN and can't use the screen to receive calls

Hello, I have a brand new SONY Xperia , Model Number D5803, Android version 5.0.2. , Baseband version 8974-AAAAANAZQ-00063-42, Kernel version 8974-perf-g3f600d1. , Build number 23.2.A.1.62.
I set a screen lock by PIN. However when I receive calls I can’t take them, because the screen in locked.
I tried to turn off the screen lock, but when I select the “ Screen lock” menu and after entering the correct PIN, the following items are not active “None”, “Slide” and “Pattern” . So I can't select “None”
The only active items are “PIN” and “Password” .
Please advice how to remove the screen lock by PIN. I hope this will help to be able to receive calls.
Thank you

To enable None and Swipe options, you need to go to Settings -> Security -> Clear credentials. Then those options will become active again.
However, you should be able to take calls even when you have PIN security, can you describe what shows on the screen when you have an incoming call while screen is locked?

My iphone 5s screen does not lock whilst a call is in progress

My iphone 5s has probs whilst calling the screen doesnt lock
Is this proximity sensor or a setting?

The iPhone screen shouldn't necessarily lock while you are in the phone call, it should however go to sleep while you have it up against your ear. Is that what you mean?
If this is what you mean and you think that there is an issue with the proximity sensor I would recommend playing a voicemail on your phone and instead of holding it up to your ear, putting your finger over the upper speaker. If the screen does not darken then there could very well be something wrong with it.
Make sure first however that the area is cleaned and uncovered, just to be sure.

RM-505 V11.0.021

Yes, the phone will often hang if you answer a call by sliding your finger across the screen. I suggest that you get used to unlocking your phone before you answer the call. There are so many people with this bug, that it's almost sure to be addressed in a future firmware update.

IPod Nano Screen Lock bug

I think I have discovered a bug in the iPod Nano software. I'm using the latest software available as for today.
I lock the iPod Nano's screen and as expected, the graphical display of a combination lock appears. I insert the iPod Nano on to the Universal Dock and then proceed to control the Nano from the Apple Remote. It works partly. I am able to pause and play music and after a song finishes, it goes to the next one. I am not, however, able to fast forward, rewind, or skip tracks. I am able to play and pause, plus the Nano goes to the next track automatically after it finishes play the current one.
Seems to me a bug! I would imagine that the screen lock is supposed to lock all kinds of control to the iPod except entering password.

connect it to itunes and it will unlock
