It takes several swipes for the slide lock screen to work. My wife swipes it, it gets to the desktop and immediately goes back to the lock screen.
Other times it connects to the little circle but doesn't get to the desktop. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason on when it doesn't work.
Any thoughts? other than using another lock option.

feel lag on when is unlocking. did any one having a same problem with me??
please delete this post...
The unlock swipe would lag for the following reasons:
1. Your wifi was turned on but is off because of screen being off. You turned on the screen which makes the phone re-enable wifi and connect to a network. This process will lag the swipe animation.
2. You used some kind of app (ie. JuiceDefender) that would disable APN (3G) when your screen is off. Turning the screen on again will make the phone to try to reconnect to 3G and this will also lag the swipe animation.
3. You just turned on your phone and because things are still loading at startup, doing the swipe will lag.
Tip: Try to wait for 5 seconds after turning the screen on and then do the swipe motion. It should go back to normal.
If none of that applies to you, do a factory reset =)
this is my second time to hard reset it but still the same.
I often find that swiping doesn't unlock the phone; the arrow won't go all the way to the edge of the screen (it sometimes just stops halfway). When that happens, I press the power button to lock the screen, then try the process again. 9 times out of 10 it'll work fine the second time.
This happens when the WiFi is off, and I am not using any APN software, nor have I just switched the phone on.
It doesn't really bother me, unless this happens when a call comes in, and I can't answer it! (it often takes me a few swipes to answer a call, and I have to swipe it slowly and carefully)

you might have a problem with your screen where some parts wont respond to your touch
download any drawing programs " i find magic marker " is the best from the market place. its free. and tap dots all over your screen, if there is/ are parts that doesnt response to your tap from the first time, that means u have problem with the screen and its not accepting your touch input. which is why your swipe doesnt go all the way sometimes.
Yes there is lag on the unlock screen. I see it as just bad programming by SE.

My swype keep changing direction, anyone nows how to set it to a particular side?
@mirdones - it changes sides when you start with your finger at the top of the swipe arc and slide your phone across the screen (left to right or right to left)..
@everyone - my swipe unlock occasionally stops about 3 quarters of the way along.. all I do is re-swipe from where it stopped and it's fine - that said, it doesn't happen as much now that I have stopped using task killers and startup auditor.
I find that instead of a slow swipe more of a flick works well for me.
Does anyone know if its possible to disable the se lock and just use the android one?

...would love to know this too
I am currently using MyMetroLock, and SOMETIMES if I don't have a lock code on, and I slide the slider across the screen, it doesn't unlock my screen. Basically I can slide the slider back and forth the screen, and the screen won't unlock.
Anyway, got around that problem by turning the lock code on, and work's fine. BUT there has been problems with this lock screen, with the lock code ON. Basically I had my HTC to backup every Monday @ 4am (via SPB backup), and it soft resets. So this morning after waking up, I moved the slider on screen, and tapped in my phone lock code, and kept getting message saying lock code was incorrect. So had to HARD RESET
Now this isn't the first time this has happened, it's happened a FEW times, and have now decided to get rid of the MyMetroLock. So managed to uninstall MyMetroLock, but then I have no lock slider lock screen on my HTC. The lock screen I have is a basic version, tap unlock bottom left screen.
How do I get back the HTC version of the slider lock screen?
Ok, have figured out how to get the HTC slider lock scrren back, as that was in the LOCK menu.
However still having the same problem with the slider. A few times I am able to lock phone, and unlock using the slider. Then if I slide the slider across the screen, the phone won't unlock. The slider don't freeze, as I am able to slide it back and fore the screen, but the phone stays locked.
Any ideas? As I have had to revert to using the "windows classic" unlock display
I'm using Azrael 3.1 and all of a sudden my slide lock screen is missing. I rely need this in case my phone rings and might answer when pulling phone out of my pocket.
as in you have no lockscreen? or its the stock android one that you slide it to the right?
you either need the vanilla lock screen fix or just redstart your phone.
It was the lock screen that you would slide down. But the reboot did the trick, it now is back. Thanks a ton.
I've had this phone for two weeks, and so far I find that 100% of custom lockscreen replacements that I've tried have this problem, and I've tried about a dozen.
When I unlock the phone by pressing the power button or the home button, 10%-20% of the time the custom lock screen will display but the touch screen doesn't respond. What I mean by that is that nothing I do on the screen is registered as a touch; be it trying to unlock, click on a notification, or pull down the lockscreen. I then have to turn the screen off and then on again for the touch screen to work. Furthermore, if it's a lockscreen that can be bypassed with the home button, I can enter the home screen and STILL can't interact with anything on she screen until I turn the screen off and on again.
I have lock screen security disabled, so it's definitely not that. Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas on how to stop this behaviour?
So I managed to drop my phone a couple of weeks ago and crack the screen. The screen itself has remained fully functional despite a couple of purple lines down it and progressively worse flickering. It;s gradually started becoming more unresponsive and tonight it seems to have had enough. The stay on screen still display the time and if I press the lock key it will show me my lock screen and my notifications, I can swipe and remove these and if drag them down to read them further.
However, when I actually unlock my phone to go to my home screen, the phone screen goes black - I know the phone has unlocked because I can hear the sound effects when I press apps but everything remains black and I can't get the screen to come alive again until I lock the phone. If I double tap the home button, it will quick launch my camera and that works. So essentially the screen still works but won't show me my home screen or any apps (apart from camera), it's essentially blacked out until I lock it again.
I'm getting it repaired but am not able to do so for a few days. Any ideas how I can bring the screen back to life when I unlock the phone? I tried restarting a few times, leaving it turned off for a while and emergency mode - none of which worked.
