Hey everybody.
I'm currently running 2.1 on my Spica and recently have run into an issue. The phone won't lock. When I unlock the phone, I am not prompted for an unlock pattern, despite having set one. I've uninstalled LauncherPro and tried toggled Pattern unlock on and off with no success.
I'm all out of ideas and really baffled.
I'm having the same problem with mine.
Have you found a way to fix it yet?

Your ROM may have turned off your lockscreen, i had this problem a while ago, if you have extended power controls, you can turn it back on, if not, then i have no idea.
hope this helps.

Hi!
I have problem with lockscreen and locked phone.
When phone is in standby and locked and I'm trying to unlock it, it hangs in lockscreen. I can move slider to unlock phone but nothing happens and it just stays locked.
This happens sometime few times in one day and sometimes is everything ok for a week. When this happens I have to take out battery and put it back in and it's very very annoying.
Is there something to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Lock screen
I have same problem, but no solution yet
simple..just set a password at ur x2..and then,hola..it will not happen again..its also happen to me last time..almost everyday..
android lockscreen
Me simple installed android lockscreen, nice looking one, but no landscape(no problem for me), just search this forum if ya want
You can solved this problem by go to Start>Settings>Auto Lock> uncheck Enable Auto Lock. I have the same hang out like your. This way helpful for me. When you need to lock your phone just Start and tap on Clock icon.
Thanks
Since 1.8.3 I have noticed 2 very annoying issues:
1: Several times a day, my Atrix will stop detecting a finger swipe. No error, just no response. I must reboot to regain finger scanning.
1: Screen Timeout: The screen will frequently, but not consistently go off after only a couple seconds of idle time. It doesn't dim first and if you hit the power button it comes back to the screen you were on, not the lock screen.
Both of these issues happened with vanilla 1.8.3 and with Gingerblur and NEVER before the update.
Anyone else?
Fingerpring issue for me as well but also the button sometimes wont put my phone in sleep and ill have to pull battery cause its unresponsive but never the screen issue you're having. This update is full of bugs they need another update fast just to fix what this one broke. Oh and I think about 90% of people that updated have reported an issue with the fingerprint scanner
But thats just my 2 cents

If both of these issues are known and have been reported, feel free to lock or delete. I searched and didn't find any thread titles about this, but did not read every 1.8.3 thread.
I met the fingerprint issue too after 1.8.3 upgrade

i had fingerprint sensor issues too, when i had stored fingerprints and restored settings for fingerprint sensor using Titanium backup. A wipe data may solve this(int titanium backup).
in 183 there is a new setting in Location And Security!
The phone is not necessary anymore to lock, when the screen goes off.
the screen can go off in 5 mins(in display settings)
and the mobile can locked in 10 mins(in location and security)!
i like this setting!

I don't see it either in 1.8.3. The item "Security lock timer" that would be used for this is disabled (grayed out).
fingerprint issue here too just experienced for the first time yesterday.
i swipe it and there is no response.
good that there is a list of people here with the same issue so motorola can acknowledge it as a legitimate bug and hopefully fix it
Can someone else verify this? When I change the screen timeout from 15 to 30 seconds, then reboot the phone, it switches back to 15 seconds.

this sounds like the GingerBlur 3.0 bug...upgrading to 3.1 fixed this for me
I am having issues with WidgetLocker and the fingerprint recognition, has anyone else experienced this issue with WidgetLocker? I have been having no issues, with the fingerprint scanning, once I turned off WidgetLocker.
Yes.
You are right!
I now recorded again fingprnts and that setting grayed out!!
I didn't used fingerprints cs some probs I had after restoring settings from backups, and waited to have 183 with 3.0 gingerblur..

I found that powering off the device, pulling the battery for a few minutes, re-installing the battery, turning the Atrix back on, then wiping and re-doing the fingerprints permanently fixed my issue.
This issue is not the same issue as when TiBu backs up fingerprint data. This is an issue with the scanner being none responsive. OP this issue has bot be talked about here but on the Moto forums it's been reported by many users.
But thats just my 2 cents

I also had my first fingerprint issue since owning this phone for the first time yesterday after getting 183. Never had it ever before...somethings wrong with this update if multiple people are getting it for the first time now.

add me to the bad fingerprint group
Same issue with Widget Locker. Sometimes when I hit power, I can swipe finger and all is good. Other times, swipe does nothing - I have to slide the screen lock, then I can swipe (or enter PIN).
Can't seem to find any pattern to when it works or doesn't, but it does do this pretty often. Good thing is, it doesn't completely lock up - if I don't get the double-vibrate for a bad finger swipe, I know that I need to do the screen slider first.
Just to add to the people on the list, I experienced the fingerprint issue once, hasn't happened since though
the best thing to do is actually complain on the motorola support forum ...
i already did
https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/50138?tstart=0
moto engineers actually look at that forum ...
So I read this thread and thought to myself, "Self, Thank G-d you don't have this problem." And then, of course, I jinxed myself. Add me to the fingerprint issues list!!
I did a power-off, battery remove, battery install, power-on, remove fingerprint data, reboot, then redo fingerprint calibration. If you don't hear back from me, assume it resolved the issue....otherwise, I'll report back....
How absurd?!

Dear all,
a few days ago I started again using Cyanogenmod, first latest stable (10.1.2) and today also latest nightly.
In Settings lockscreen is enabled with cLock-Widget, till now I tried normal unlock (move only), pattern, PIN and Password but in 90% of all cases, if I switch of my Nexus with Power, it is NOT locked. Pressing Power again, after a few seconds, minutes or just hours still show homescreen oder latest app which was open. Same if I do not use Power but waiting for automatic Lockscreen.
Do anyone has the same problem or just know how to fix that?

What are your settings for under Security for:
"Automatically Lock after ## after sleep" and do you have "Power button instantly locks" checked?

I've noticed this as well. Since around the time of the 10.1.2 release.
Basically, I've changed the default settings so there's a lock screen and it works at first, but then, seemingly randomly will stop working, ie no lock screen whatsoever. I can leave the phone for hours, and there's no security.
Seems like a pretty serious flaw to me. I've actually upgraded my CM installation, as well as done a complete reinstall, doing a factory reset, and updating to the latest nightly, ie last nights, and this issue is still there.
Basically means I can't rely on CM for keeping my phone secure. I've changed the settings back and forth, tried different security settings, reset things, reinstalled, etc. Tried everything I can think of.
Yes, all the proper settings are there, basically CM's default settings once you turn the lock screen on should work, power button instantly locks, timeout etc.
About ready to go back to an earlier version or different rom completely.
Anyone have any thoughts?

I just loaded my first rom on my Note 2 today. Getting the same thing. The quick fix is to close all the open apps, then it kicks you right back into the lock screen. I double click, then button in the top right and closes them all auto for me. I think it might be FB Messenger causing the issues but I can't say for sure. LMK if you that helps in the short term?
Am not running FB Messanger, so that's not causing it for me.
I'm using a pattern on my lock screen, not sure if this issue exists with all types of lock screens.
Hi all,
I've just installed CM 10.1.2 on my SGS2 (GT-I9100) yesterday and I had the exact same problem.
I've just figured out where the problem is:
I use Handcent SMS app, and when I receive a text, a quick reply window pop up. If I type my reply in it and hit send, it deactivate my lock screen.
Hope my answer helps!
I have the same issue. Disabled the popup function in Handcent settings and lockscreen i working.

There is an app that is bypassing the lock screen.
For me it was a proximity screen of app...
My N4 was away to repair a broken screen. Got it back on Wednesday and it immediately updated to 4.3. All was well, except for one weird issue where hitting a notification from the pull down would take me to the app via the pattern lock. I put this down to having played with some lock screen settings in Setting Profiles app (trying to disable it in certain settings), but it might not have been.
I've done the first device restart today, and after rebooting there are a few big issues.
1. I don't appear to have any mobile network, though wifi is connected. I had a good signal before the reboot.
2. I'm not getting a lock pattern or any lock screen at all, and it's not asked for the SIM pin
3. Hitting a notification in the pull-down makes the 'lock' clicking sound as it takes me to the app
4. The home button doesn't work. I see a slight dim of the screen and it makes the lock click sound, but nothing happens. Back and multitask work fine
Help! Any ideas? Are they known issues? Can't seem to find any reference online.
I'm on stock, using Nova Launcher

Those are not any known issues or anything I have read since Andrid 4.3 came out. Try a factory reset to see if that solves the problem. If not, maybe the screen wasn´t the only thing broken on your device. Ask for warranty.
Thanks, will see how I get on this evening and try a factory reset if it doesn't fix itself.
Seems to be a weird problem related to the lock screen and when it should/shouldn't kick in...

Glad I could help.
Ok, I've done a factory reset. Not had much chance to play as it took hours to reinstall everything. But I've just had the word issue where selecting something from the notification tray (the setting profiles shortcut) took me to the lock screen to put in my pattern first, then took me to the app.
EDIT no pattern to when it does it, seems random and can be while I'm using the device, so the lock screen shouldn't kick in for any reason
Any ideas? Faulty device?
