is there a reason why android forces devices to reboot on sim change ?
and any way to prevent this ? i can switch applications alright but that pesky notification stays on top.
You should never change SIM when the device is on. Doing so is stupid.

Anybody have had this issue? It likely has something to do with the ROM I am using, as I the problem has somewhat disappeared before when I was in 2.1 (but a bunch of severe problems I have had with 2.1 make it otherwise unusable). Is there a way I can further troubleshoot this by either flashing specific portions of the rom or by digging through engineering mode? (by the way, how do I enable the engineering options?)
Basically, if I shut my phone down outside airplane mode, then when I start my phone up it goes to the carrier splash screen, then the capacitive buttons blink and the thing shuts down. If I start up in airplane mode, then the moment I leave it the capacitive buttons blink, the service indicator goes from 'airplane mode' to 'no service', and it shuts down.
I am using a beta streak on Softbank mobile, Japan.
Have you tried it with a different sim? Just thinking that the sim itself might be causing it or that it might be something to do with beta units having their 3g service terminated elsewhere?
Haven't tried it with a different sim, but I know there isn't any special problems with the sim I use as it works just fine on my other phone.
I have got it to work occasionally, but if I turn my phone off its an excruciatingly long process of removing my sim card, turning the phone on, turning on airplane mode, setting it to GSM only (there's not GSM service in Japan), turning my phone off, re-inserting the sim card, turning the phone back on, turning off airplane mode, turning off data connection, and setting it to WCDMA. At that point it usually shuts down, so I have to restart the process until it works.
I REALLY don't want to have to do this every time my phone shuts down or overheats (which it does a lot of!)
I can lock my SIM Card and I can screen lock the phone (password, pattern, pin) but none of these actually lock the handset! am I being dim or is this basic function not available?
I want to lock my SIM (no problem) and lock my phone so that any time it is booted or rebooted it asks for a pin for the phone and one for the sim.
The only option I can find is to lock the lock screen, which would mean entering a pin/password/pattern every time my phone locks. I don't want to enter this 500 times a day just once when I power up.
This means my phone is completely unsecured, SAMSUNG please fix in next firmware release.
Every other phone I have had (including Samsung e.g. D780) can do this.
Are you serious? The phone auto locking after a set time or only when it is turned off then on? If I lose my phone when it is on I want it to time out and lock so no-one can easily access my info (there is a more serious security issue in that you can re-flash it to access). The auto lock may give me a little time to inform my network so they can ban the sim and then I can also use Samsung to remote wipe my data.
Steam Kernel in the dev section has partition encryption to lock the data away and it cant be accessed without a password - even if you flash a new kernal - if you do that - you cant mount the partition - so you can only wipe it if you dont have the password.
only works on 2.2 - not 2.2.1 according to the notes
if you cant install a kernel - then its not for you as he does mention its beta software pretty much - but he did do the original lagfix - so he knows what hes on about
go search in the dev section
Whenever I turn on or reboot, a box comes up, "Mobile Data" telling me what I already know, "Mobile data connection is currently disabled. You need to connect Mobile data to use data applications, such as Browser, Email, and You Tube via Mobile network. Do you want to make the connection?"
This box appears with or without sim card, WiFi on or off, but whenever I boot or reboot. The only time the box doesn't come up, is when mobile data is on, which you can't do, without having the sim card installed.
To eliminate box on boot, leave sim card inserted with mobile data on. I have a Samsung Note, same conditions, there has never been a box pop up at boot or reboot. Easy to click cancel button go move on, but box is irritating, so would like to make it simply go away when device is booted!
No One?
No one has experienced this on their P6800?
I get the same thing - SIM card inserted but data turned off, receive a popup when booting.
It's only one tap to dismiss, and how often are you rebooting anyway! Mildly annoying, but not a big issue for me...
Agree
Not a big deal, yet same setup for Tab's little brother, the Note, and no box. Perhaps the difference between Gingerbread 2.3.6 and Honeycomb 3.2. It still would be nice to not have that box pop up whenever booting/rebooting.

It will become very often if you use honeybar,Lol.
Anyway,It's because of rooting.
I posted same question on rooting thread.
Hoping that root developer can find a way to fix it..
Im rooted and also using honeybar, I havent encountered this yet.

I am not rooted. But I also get this dialog. I would love to disable it.
Anyone figure this out yet? Extremely annoying, especially when using honeybar.
I also have it, but since I'm so used to it, my fingers automatically hit cancel lol yep, I would like to disable this as well specially when using honeybar
I've noticed that after a reboot or power on, the phone doesn't allow apps to connect to the network until it's unlocked. Is this normal behavior?
9nce unlocked, after a minute or so, apps start connecting.
Im a first time oneplus customer with a op5 and I've never seen that behavior in any phone. When I land, I switch the phone on and it starts syncing once it boots up.
If you activated the "require pin/password to start device" when setting up the phone then yes, it's normal behavior.
Running stock - I recently wiped and managed to forget my password. As you all know biometrics won't work upon a fresh reboot. Well, I tried all I could remember and had no success. I found a link to samsung accounts which will remote unlock. Great!
Except now when I boot the phone it's a black backdrop "Please input pw to 'turn on' device'" and can see it's automatically set into airplane mode. I can't access the notification bar, I can't send the unlock command......what can I do?
Do I have to seriously wipe again?
don't bother replying as the phone wiped itself. Piece of **** phone software is a hunk of garbage. One single restart locked the whole phone out from ALL connectivity. No wifi, no cell, no anything.
What is the god damn point of remote software to unlock, track, locate devices if ONE ****ING restart locks out the entire software suite? Knox is trash.
