If you enable encryption, it'll require a password to boot or enter recovery

[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........

Factory Reset your phone from recovery. This will unlock your phone but will delete all apps and app data.
To go to recovery: press and hold power button and volume Up button simultaneously for 15 - 20 seconds. A menu will appear. There should be an option saying wipe data. Scroll through the lost using volume buttons as up and down and press power button to select the option. Your phone will boot up as new.
Hit thanks if this helped!
Pm me for further help.

If you hold down you power button for 10sec, it should force your phone to turn off. If you turn it on again after that will it then boot?

Do you have a custom kernel installed, maybe a double tap to wake feature or similar is misbehaving?
On the matter of your previous problem, could you post what you did to fix it? It could be useful to someone else with the same problem. ?

Do you have root access? If yes then download this app to boot in safe mode.

Have you tried to disable developer options?
By the way this is the method of booting in safe mode. http://consumer.huawei.com/ca/support/products/faqs/detail/y6-ca.htm?id=55398
Safe mode does not need root .
To boot into safe mode :
1. Turn your phone off
2. Press power button until it vibrates
Then quickly press and hold volume down key and keep holding until the phone start up completely .. there will be a safe mode label at the screen
To close it just restart
******
Any way I thought that u couldn't turn off developer options, But in your case , you've said it didn't help so it's a problem with the rom , I guess.

That solved after refreshes, thank you very very much
It happens I switched safe from my "Huawei p8 lite 2017 " n then when I try to log in the previous it needs a password which I forgot because I was using a fingerprint... Is there any way I can get access to destroy the safe without getting in first???

Help mi a1 asking pattern while booting

Help my mi a1 asking the authentication pattern/pin in the middle of booting instead of after finishing the booting like usually, its bothering me coz it make the boot twice longer
You have enabled Secure start-up.To disable it go to Settings > Security & location > Screen lock, enter your pin/pattern, click on pin/pattern and select No in Secure start-up screen & enter your old password two times.

Thank you soo much man its works
Ok, but if no PIN/pattern/password is asked during boot sequence, does it mean data partition is not encrypted ? If PIN is asked only after boot (first asked PIN, then SIM PIN, the pattern/fingerprint) does it mean data is not encrypted ?
