Slide to Unlock

hi there, i am using iPhone 4S iOS 5.1.1 and there is no passcode on. I want to remove "Slide to Unlock" so while i always get a call i always have "Decline" or "Answer" instead of "Slide to Answer". is it possible now or in any coming updates?
Thanks.

You're welcome.
There is no such option and I venture to say there won't be one
There is little or no difference between having a "Slide to Answer" instead of just "Answer", and the potential negative effects of not having a "Slide to Unlock" or "Slide to Answer" with a call far outweigh the minimal or zero difference between "Slide to Answer" and just "Answer".

Iphone 4 is stuck. I have tried a master reset and it didn't work. it won't slide to unlock or power off. I did somehow get to the passcode screen but it didn't let me enter anything. I have also tried on a pc through itunes but since I can't unlock it, it won't let me do that either.

HT201406 Dropped iphone 4s, and touch screen wont read my finger when i slide to unlock or touch the buttons.

I recently dropped my Iphone 4s 32gig phone on the ground and the screen did not crack or anything. When i tried to slide to unlock it, nothing happened. It woudn't read my finger at all and the phone seemed fully functional (meaning i could click the unlock and lock buttons and home buttons and it all worked fine, it just seemed like the sensor was not reading my finger). So i figured it was a problem with the LCD screen so i purchased a new one and installed it correctly, and nothing happened. Something else is wrong with my iphone and i have no clue what to do. Can anyone help me?

If you are saying you have repaired the iPhone by replacing parts then you have voided any warranty ,if relevant and any other further support from Apple .
Apple do not sell spare parts so who knows what you have done to the iPhone but nothing that Apple will now help with

Try restoring the iPod, first from backup and then to factory defaults/new iPod. If still problem it is a hardware problem.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place like the following maybe less expensive. Google for more.

My ipod is showing an "activation required" message on my home screen and the slider to unlock it is not working. I've had it for 2 years and had no problems and then it randomly locked up on me and won't let me do a reset. Any way to fix this?

I haven't been able to use my ipod for a month because its stuck on a screen that says "Activation Required" and the slider to unlock it is unresponsive. I've drained the battery and recharged it, I've tried resetting it. When I try opening it in iTunes it tells me its unable to access it because the iPod is locked with a passcode, which I can't enter on my iPod because the slider is unresponsive. Any help?

next thing i would think of is to ask bestbuy apple retailer or bestbuy pple to help u out from here bc im not sure what to do next if u cant get it into dfu mode.
all i can think of is to hold home and power for 30 seconds in the meantime of showing the apple sign at least once or twice.
either that, home and power flashes once and 1/2 sec later release power while holding home still and plug it in wihout trying to let go the home button. dont even let go until itunes says somthing remotly saying anything ...lol

You created a new AppleID?
Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

My iPhone 4s screen is cracked and can't slide to unlock it. Several of the icons are not working as well. Is there a way to recover my photos if the phone has never had a back up or synced with another device?

No in order to backup to iTunes, you would need to unlock your phone.
In order to import pics to your computer you would need to unlock your phone.

Why does the screen on my IPad 3 go blank before it allows me to "slide to unlock"?"

I recently bought the iPad3. When I turn it on, I see the home screen and the "slide to unlock", but I can't do anything until the screen goes blank. Then I have to press the home button and the "slide to unlock" becomes accessible. Is this normal? Thanks!

I found apple service by calling number on the new ipad manual that comes in the ipad box. At the end pages of that manual there is number for support and service. You can also try to learn service number from the store you bought it. Or you live in a country which has Apple Store, give it to them to test it.
I thought it was a software issue too. I'm good on using software. I struggled a lot to find the trick. I searched net about it and saw it happens with ipads, iphones, android phones, generally touch screens. Don't accept ro reset your device advice if it is repeating.

7 day view of Calendar Events on the Slide to Unlock Screen???

Does anyone agree that an option to view Calendar of Events on the Slide to Unlock Screen would be a quick and easy way to review your next events and appointments?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

HT201412 My lock screen is frozen. It will not let me slide to unlock or anything. I can't power it off because my lock button is broken and I can't do the assistive touch thing? Help!

My lock screen is frozen! It will not let me slide to unlock or touch the screen at all. I can't power it down either because the lock button is broken. A friend of mine said I might need a new Digitizer? Is there anyway I can avoid that? Pleasae Help!

I am having the SAME exact problem! Except instead of lock button broken it's my home button so I can't do the whole "put in recovery mode" deal. My screen only says "tap the home button 3 times" and it has my screen locked until I hit the home button but since it is broken I can't get in my phone at all. I have all of my work info in my phone so I'm screwed and can't get any help. PLEASE let me know if you find a way around this...!!!
Thanks!

When I try to log into my ipod it wont slide the slide to unlock thing and then when i try to type my password in it wont press the numbers i want. How do I fix it??

Dear iTunes,
So my iPod touch 4th generation 16 gigs. has about 5 long cracks along the screen and I guess whenever I try to log into it, I cant.. I cant slide the "slide to unlock" thing. It will just there. Then when I finally got it to open up and I had to type my password in, it wouldnt let me. It would just type the wrong numbers in. Well Its getting really frusterating, and I have taken this iPod back multiple time in the last year. To be quite honest, Im getting ****** off. I WANT MY IPOD TO WORK. Also I have turned it off for quite a while and turned it back on, but nothing will work!!!!!! I NEED HELP.
Sincerely,
Alie Toole.

With a cracked screen, though, you need to take it to an Apple store genius bar and get an out-of-warranty replacement. That is $99 for that model.

Ipod touch not recognised by Itunes and will not slide to unlock.

Hi,
I got my Ipod touch 32GB 3rd gen for christmas last year, my battery ran flat some time last week. When i plugged it into my computer via USB to charge, it charged for a few minutes then stoped. When i looked and tryed to unlock the Ipod, it will not slide to unlock, same with the slide to power off, I have pushed both home and power botton to reset; both plugged into compter and not however after the reset it still will not unlock. when pluged into itunes i get a message saying it needs a full factory settings restore, i start that process, however i am shown an error message which reads "the Ipod software update server could not be contacted. An unknown error occured (1612)".
Sorry about the long post, can anyone help, has this sort of thing happened with anyone else before?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks Alot.

I can no longer view my photos through th photo icon. There is not an icon on my "slide to unlock" screen that when touched starts a slide show of my photos. How do I turn that off so I can access my photos as before?

Oroilore-
I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon. I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off. The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted. If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
