Motorola Droid Razr :: Pattern Unlock Coming Up Wrong Times?
Jun 27, 2012
Has anyone else had the pattern unlock delayed upon opening. I've been having it where i can swype to the right, unlock it and the pattern lock isn't there, but when i start to do something, it realizes that the pattern lock didn't work and it will re-lock?
I just switched from a Motorola Droid to a Droid X2. However, the lock screen is giving me issues. If I turn on pattern lock, it still leaves the slide lock activated. On the old Droid, it turned OFF the scroll lock when pattern lock was activated. How can I disable the scroll lock while pattern lock is activated? It's rather annoying having two lock screens...
After my last thread which pointed out I was just simply lookin in the wrong place I bet there is a pretty easy solution for this too, I just can't seem to find it.Currently when unlocking my phone, I have to do the slide to unlock, and then input my pattern to unlock. I want my phone so that when I only have to do the pattern.The security options on the phone allow for "None", "Pattern", "Password", and "Pin". It says nothing of the slide to unlock feature and I can not figure out how to turn the thing off.
I've seen a couple of threads about location problems, and I have a question about it. Two weather applications show my location in NJ when I'm in NY, and while the two apps show different NJ towns, both are over one hundred miles from where I am. Weatherbug allowed me to turn off network location and use the phone's GPS, but it hasn't changed anything. At this location, I must use a network extender to get a signal, so that may be mucking up the location, but the weather app is off whether I'm here or somewhere else.
The Razr Maxx lets me operate lock screen controls like the drop-down notification bar and other things like BeyondPod control screen (with Previous, Play/Pause, and Next functions), but operating anything on the screen other than the lock does not prevent the screen from timing out and turning off. I don't know if the ability to operate anything other than the unlock function on the lock screen is a feature of the Razr or Android, but timing out while using other things that are available is annoying and doesn't make sense. Is this Motorola's bug or Android's?
Also, does Motorola development read issues on these forums or do we need to go through customer support for problems like this? I'm not sure which way is more likely to get through.
I have the Razr Maxx thru Verizon.I have a husband and wife setup as separate contacts but same last names.If I use voice and say "Linda" it brings up her contact. If I select it so her name shows it the contact field then send a text message, it ends up under her husbands conversation. It appears to have been sent to her husband.But I don't get replies.
So, for the past few days, when I wake up in the morning, I have found that the lower half of my screen is flashing. I use the AlarmDroid app and have done so since I got the device in February, so I didn't think that this would be the cause. It will flicker for a while, then eventually stop, so I can't just take it to erizon and show it to them. It only seems to do it first thing in the morning when I wake up (plugged into the charger). I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, but no change. The only thing I can think of is that a couple of weeks ago my phone would not restart, so I had to reset to factory defaults. This started after I did the factory reset.
My Razr has suddenly started the ringer volume bar coming up on the screen by itself. I can only get it off the screen by turning my phone off and then back on again. Then after a period of time, it comes back up again. This is killing my battery life.
What purpose does Slide to Unlock provide? I find it quite annoying but maybe I'm missing something. So tell me, how does slide to unlock enhance your mobile phone experience? Does anyone know how to turn it off?While we are on the subject, what's with the slide to vibrate only mode on the unlock screen? Does anyone know how to disable it? Apparently I've been muting my phones ringer when I take it out of the navigation dock.
I recently received my notification for the recent razr soak test and accidently cleared. It says my system is up to date. How can I get to the notification?
Any way to assign the unlock screen text shortcut in ICS to something other than the stock sms app? I prefer GoSMS and would like to assign the unlock shortcut to that if possible. I've tried around in the system settings and wasn't able to find anything there.
I know there are third party screen unlocks. I am wondering if there is anyway to customize the slide apps that appear on screen unlock. When I disabled stock text and got sms pro it defaulted to this. Has anyone else figured out how to customized these apps? My friend is running a JB rom on his nexus and was able to have something like 10(maybe more) customisable apps located on his unlock wheel.
I have a weird issue. I power cycled the phone and went to unlock it and as soon as I unlocked it the ringtone started to play. I can get the phone to do this on every power cycle.
In ics 4.0.4 I have lock with pattern and active desk dock. When I have mail or other with notication message in notification bar I can tap over message. After that i see message and I get control on phone without know security pattern.
Ever since the ICS update, whenever I select a text or something in the notification bar it asks me to enter my lock screen pattern. I use an app called no lock so it's easy to turn off when I'm at home and don't need the security. When I have the locking turned off and turn the screen off and on it doesn't ask for the pattern like it shouldn't. But whenever I select something in the notification bar i have to enter the pattern. I have tried different lock screens but it does it for all but the slide i think.
i donno da secret questions answer and nor is it accepting my gmail account iam not able 2 understand wat 2 do!iam not even able 2 format it as my screens locked as it is locekd after entering. wrong Pttern Password by my young brother.
I entered a password pattern hoping I could dump the goofy swipe lock in favor of the password pattern. Now I find out I can't get rid of the lock page or the password pattern. So I am swiping the lock page and then doing the password pattern.
I activated the pattern lock to see if I liked it. I don't!Went to settings/ Location and security/use visible pattern/"uncheck box. (Any sane person would asume this would disingauge the visable lock screen. Not so batman.... Just because this is how you turned it on does not mean it will turn if off!!!!)Go back to home screen.When slide security screen is pushed aside. There is the visable lock pattern screen again
The upgrade to Gingerbread has been seamless aside from one issue that has recently popped up. I prefer that the only screen lock on my phone is the slider, but suddenly this option has gone away. When I hit the lock button, I expect that my phone's screen will go off and in order to turn it back on, I need to hit the lock button again and slide to unlock it. I do not want to enter a pattern, a pin, or a password. In order to get the slide lock to consistently show up after hitting the lock button, I need to add a pattern, pin or password. The slide lock will show up, but I also have to enter the pattern, pin or password after unlocking with the slide lock if the security lock timer setting has elapsed.
I have looked eveywhere for the setting to adjust the strength and pattern of the vibration. Am I just missing it, or is there no way to adjust, its just sometimes the vibration can barely be felt.
So you turn on the X2, you have the green tab that you move to the right to access your home screen. I also have a security lock pattern that I use to unlock access. Is there a way to eliminate the standard unlock feature, so that I don't have to go thru 2 unlock screens to get to the homescreen? On my original Droid, once I programmed the lock pattern in, the standard one went away; not so with this one.
I had activated the screen lock feature for my mobile. I had used fingerprint detection and the password method. I discovered that if the password is entered wrong 5 times, the phone erases all the data on the phone as well as the memory card. I want to disable this feature.When the password is entered wrong 5 times. It should just not allow the user to enter password for another 5 minutes.
First of all this is minor Bug, but still - BUG!There is phone configuration description:Phone: Xperia X10iFW: android 2.1patterns - default slider + unlock patternBug description1) when phone is locled, press home or power button.2) move slider, to be able to draw pattern.3) start to draw pattern and wait till screen oes black (do not remove your finger). So your pattern is not finished and screen has gone black. Try to remember place of the finger.4) press home or power button again.5) finish unlock pattern from place you was, when screen turned black.6) your phone is unlocked!!!So, if you did not finished your pattern and your screen have gone black you might think, that the phone locked, but this is not true.
I purchased the Moto Elite Sliver because my Plantronics Pro HD would drop its bluetooth every single time a call was answered or placed. I did a little research and found it may be related to a conflict with the 2.0 headset and 4.0 phone. Moto Sliver is BT 3.0 and was working great until this week. Now every single time a call is disconnected, the headset disconnects and reconnects. Reboots galore, problem still exists. Uninstall/reinstall Motospeak, problem still exists. Sometimes the bluetooth will not connect at all (reboot required). The Droid RAZR Maxx and the Elite Sliver are supposed to be state of the art MOTOROLA, I make a living with my phone and headset.
