For some reason it seems that upon reaching the draw to unlock screen that the phone doesn't want to unlock unless the pattern is drawn quickly?? Anyone else?
Don't care to look for the official term, but it's the draw to unlock screen w/ 9 circles.

Ok the flip down to unlock the phone is an ok idea I guess. However, I noticed 2 things.
1: When you bring your phone up with the "Flip screen down to unlock" message, you can just press "Menu" and it unlocks it.
2: When I am at work, I keep my phone in my pocket. Several times I have pulled my phone out and it is in the middle of different programs. So somehow the phone get's unlocked when in my pocket.
Is their anything numerical I can do to have to punch in a sequence of numbers to unlock the phone? I am not a fan of the "Draw the line" option the Hero has. So I wanted to see what, if any, other options are out there for locking and unlocking the phone (not a root type of unlock, a screen lock)
Thank you,

OOOOOOLD issues. We have all cursed HTC for their way of thinking in this matter.
Hello,
on my new Mega device, it seems there is a problem: every now and then (I couldn't establish a pattern, as I have the phone only since yesterday), the lock screen that comes up when phone wakes up cannot be unlocked. More precisely, the locker that should be wiped away is not moving until the edge of the screen to disappear, but only just a few millimeters and the screen cannot be unlocked. The only solution is to take off the battery.
Is something that I'm missing?
Thank you.
HTC has released a hot fix for this issue:
here
is anyone of you facing that your op2 is not getting locked unless you reboot the device? I've noticed that I can unlock it with my finger but after that it seems that it just wont enable the pattern to unlock it, basically it is unsafe.
I have a moto 360 as a trusted device so not sure if that affects it.
Your trusted device is most likely the issue
"Add device to keep this one unlocked when it is nearby"
To ensure it is working, leave your moto 360 at home for the day, check that the pattern lock screen appears after being away from it.
I have a security issue, unless its me being silly.
I am fully stock unrooted.
I have never had any problem until today and I realised my phone unlocked without a pass code or finger print, I know this because I always wear rubber gloves and have to type the pin in to get into my phone, I do this day in day out and today after several unlocks it stopped asking for the pin.
I have uploaded a video showing what happens
It funny though because when I click the lock on the bottom of the unlock screen it prompts me for a pin or finger print, but if I don't touch the lock, just a simple swipe unlocks it.
Is there something I have pressed by accident which causes this?

Check your smart lock settings. Is anything enabled?

I can't replicate the issue here - not sure what would cause this other than the smart bluetooth lock as suggested by the above poster.

I haven't changed anything, I have cleaned the finger print sensor, no new apps installed.
Weird
Put it on charge and it's fixed it's self!

I dont see this specific question...
I have my lock screen set as a pin
On a daily basis, it says my pin in incorrect and does not let me get into my phone.
It is the correct pin and I make several attempts to do so, to the point where I am locked out for a certain period of time.
If I restart my phone, the same exact pin works.
Is there a reason this is happening or a way of preventing this from happening?
Wild shot... but have you tried with the phone on a flat surface just in case you are touching the edges as you enter it?
Also, why not use the fingerprint lock? So much easier and just as secure as numbers.
