Thank you for taking the time to check out my thread.
I bought an HTC Evo 4g from a friend of mine. I've got it completely set up with all of my information and it's working perfectly. However, his name is plastered all over the lock screen and call screen. It's in the middle of the lock screen on the slide to unlock portion and in the upper left hand corner of the call screen.
Sorry, I am new to android. When I setup lock screen and turn off, the screen does not have the lock screen I setup when I turn it back on. It still show the swipe screen, no pin lock or password screen. Now if i power off and reboot then it show up. Also if I set up a type of pass lock then I can't use the lock widget anymore. It just won't show when I scroll right or left.
I noticed today that when screen is locked with slide security you can still pull down status bar and unlock phone as well you can hit the menu button to unlock phone. If I put to face or pattern these options go away. Is there a way to lock status bar when in lockscreen? And more so lock menu button in lock screen so the phone doesn't open in my procket? I'm running Baked Bean ROM.
I've been lurking for quite some time and haven't been able to find a solution for my issue. Here's what happened:
I cracked the screen on my Galaxy Nexus and got an insurance replacement. I then used ClockworkMod Recovery to copy over from my old device to my new device. All was good for about 12 hours when the new device started boot looping with the flashy color animation screen.
I feel stupid posting this but a yesterday I used the "Face Unlock" locking feature on my Nexus 7, it also requires you enter a pin if it can't detect your ugly mug.
Anyway, I've forgotten this pin and as you may or may not know the face unlock feature doesn't always work.
This is for a Galaxy S3, 4.1.2 updated. I chose to have the screen lock with password, and set the lock to become active after 30 minutes. This works fine normally, the screen switches off in 30 sec, and anytime within 30 min I can get back to the screen without pw or swiping. Well...
So last night I was using my phone like I normally would, just on twitter and browsing the internet. Then all of a sudden, the screen turns off. By this I mean, the back light is still on, you can see the screen works because of the light but I can't view a thing.
I lock the phone and unlock it to see whether it just had a little glitch for some reason and the screen remains the same.
Hi all -
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 4G. 3g, 4g, WiFi all work fine during use.
My problem relates to 3g/4g ("mobile internet") turning off when the phone has spent >3 minutes in the lock screen.
I can get 3g/4g to turn back on by clicking the home button/power key and then also entering my pattern to pass the lock screen.
I have no idea why this has happened, but for some reason on my Nexus 7 (do not have this issue on my Galaxy Nexus running CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightlies), when I try to interact with a widget on my lock screen, the widget goes to the background, and the lock turns white highlighted with a box around it (like it wants me to unlock the device first).
