Hey all,
I tried to set up my lock screen, and when I go into settings, I can configure a PIN or password, but I can't enable it. It is set to "off" and when I tap it, it dumps me back to the main settings screen.
I have done more flashing than a Republican Congressman, but nothing seems to work. I'm also good with going back to stock (I think I tried that), but I have to have a lock screen for work.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same issue... Glad that I'm not the only one with this issue..
Did you find any solution yet?
I did not post this in development forum... Have posted under general forum...
Settings > Location & security > Tap on PIN or Password to set the lock method.
That's all you need to do, it will automatically enable the protection for you.
To disable the PIN or Password protection, select the Off or Not secured option.
Using Off will display directly the main screen, while Not secured will display the swipe circle.
Have already tried all that... didn't work... I set the pin and still says it is off.. Turned my screen off and lock screen doesn't appear when I turn it back up...
Don't know what is going on..
Are you using a vanilla 3.1 ROM or creepy TouchWiz?
Settings > Location & security > Configure Lock Screen > PIN
Enter PIN > Continue > Confirm PIN > OK > Tap Home > Press Power button
I don't think so... It is a factory stock 3.1 ROM.. I didn't change anything... I have the rooted Droid 1, never had this prob with my phone.. Don't understand what is going on... Have tried the typical steps but screen lock not enabling...
Only thing is that, mine came from Europe as a gift... Maybe this was how it got set up over there? But don't know...
I have a brazilian one with the sam problem. I think it's a bug.

I had the same problem. Go to the security page and chose which method youwant to use, pin, parties or pattern. Once you enter it don't click anything else in that screen. Click the back button and it will be saved.
Screen Lock Activated

Is there a way to change our smart cover settings so that when you open the cover you can bypass the lock screen and go straight to your home screen?

Go to Settings > General > Accessory > Uncheck the box where it says Day Note.
You also need to disable the lockscreen. Settings > Device > Lockscreen and set Screen lock to "None"
After updating to b370 I noticed a small, yet very annoying issue. I have set a fingerprint to unlock the device, however, about 5 times out of 10, when I try to unlock the device with my fingerprint, it will say "Device administrator locked device" and still force me to enter my pin.
Anyone else noticed this? Know a way around it?
Try disabling some apps that have access to Screen like app "Screen off and Lock" (You can find it at Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Security -> Device Administrator)

OK, the culprit was Arrow Launcher due to enabling double tap to unlock.
Hello,
On my old phone I had an option to put a personalized message on the lockscreen, for example, to call this number if someone find this phone.
Is there a way to do the same on the OP5? I have substratum with a couple of modules but I haven't figure out how to do it.
Use "Lock screen message" in Settings > Security & fingerprint > cogwheel on screen lock
