[Q] SIM Lock when resuming from flight mode

Due to company security policy, my SIM is pin locked.
When I turn the device on, everything works fine: I'm asked for the pin and then the device connects to the operator network.
But, as the thread title says, when I resume the device from Flight Mode, the PIN input keypad is not displayed, so the SIM remains in the lock state.
The only way I found to unlock it is to reboot the device.
Has anyonefound a better workaround / fix ?
Thanks in advance
Mauro

i simply unlock the screen and enter pin code after returning from flight mode. Don't know why you restart it?

Are you on stock or custom rom?

because I'm not presented for the pin code keypad, after returing from flight mode, and I don't know how to activate it.
For example, on my HTC HD, simply pressing the call button, the pin input keypad pops up.....

stock 2.1.1.A.0.6, it's a company phone, not my personal one, so I'm not allowed to flash it with a custom ROM

Try to lock and unlock screen.Can you look in the log and see if there is any errors when this happens.

I've googled how to look the log file, if I'm right it's not just a file you can browse with a shell explorer, you need an application such as a log collector, I'm going to try this evening at home

Holding menu key shows keyboard, at least on stock SE homescreen.

Can't you just hold the lock button, it popups a menu for airplane mode and silent mode. And turn off.

This is the only workaround I found
1) go to "location & security settings"
2) go to "set up SIM card lock"
3) un-tick "Lock SIM card"
4) enter your PIN as required
5) your phone will now connect to the mobile network. full bars!!
6) re-tick "set up SIM card lock" if you still want to protect your phone using SIM card PIN
7) enter your PIN as required
I'm sure there must be a smarter way........

Knock Code Problem

Hey guys,
I've set a knock code on my D802 but when my screen is off and I'm tapping the knock code sequence it's like not accepting the code but when I press the power button and tap the sequence again it unlocks the phone. I'm rooted with custom recovery from AutoRec. Any suggestions?

Flash stock recovery.

How can I do it without resetting data? Because I don't want to set up all accounts and apps.

Hi
You are probably stuck to the device and the screen closed you must hold in a vertical position using the knock code

Quick pin unlock?

So is there a way to quick pin unlock right now (i.e. dont need to hit enter key) or do we have to just wait for xposed to come out for mm?

Lock Problem

I've put a PIN on my phone and I don't want it now. But when I go to lock screen-password, I put my actual PIN and I get this:
What I can do to get rid of it?
I have stock B600

In up corner you see privacy protection, on your Firmware will be like Encrypt or smlt. Just press it, and follow the steps! But if f you can't then make factory reset!

That's a known bug in the latest firmwares. Set a pattern and insert it wrongly for 5 times then press "forgot the pattern" button or something like that and after entering the pin code it will ask you to choose the new lock method. Just press the home button and you are done
