Have encountered this twice with my replacement One S (first one had a weird refresh issue that I haven't encountered yet with the replacement). This is all using the stock Sense launcher with pattern locked enabled.
Basically coming out of a screen off situation I unlock via the ring and then get the pattern screen. However, everything is smaller and shifted far to the right so I can't see all of the dots and therefore can't unlock. Only solution is to restart the phone.

Just curious if others have run into this.
Just happened again.
Figured out a workaround to not have to reboot the phone. One of my lock screen shortcuts is the camera. When this happened I went directly to the camera from the lock screen and back to the lock screen and all of the dots appeared this time.

Are you rooted, bootloader unlocked, or running a dif recovery? I have been using the gesture unlock since day one and have had no issues like what you describe. Perhaps a factory reset may help?
None of that. Stock out of the box. I'll monitor it and see if I can determine if it is specific steps that lead to it since it doesn't happen that frequently. Hasn't been happened at all today.

This happened with me too, on my stock phone. It must be a bug that has to do with the camera unlock feature, I just stick to bare pattern and it works for me.
I have the exact same issue with my stock HTC One S. I don't use face unlock just the pattern.
Thanks for the camera thing work around, I was getting tired of rebooting my phone.
Question, when you open the app drawer and start tapping "Menu" on top right rapidly, does the UI start glitching?
It's happen to me as well, I'm using the face unlock now to avoid reboot. I'll try the camera work around.
I occasionally get that as well but turning the screen off and on again or even going in to the emergency dialer and backing out usually fixes it. I've never had to reboot because of it. I use the camera for security with a trace pin backup.

Hey guys
I didn't make this but stumbled across it and I know its something other people have been looking for.
This will remove the sprint lock screen and give you the lock that slides to the right (vanilla lock).
http://geekfor.me/evo/21/vanilla-lock-fix-for-evo/
They are only guaranteed to work with Fresh Evo 0.1d but I can confirm that it works perfect with DamageContorl 3.1.2
There are several options on the page but I selected option #3 since I use beautiful widgets for my clock.
If anyone knows how to make it a non-transparent background, let me know!
Installation goes as follows (how I did it)
save zip to sd card
boot to recovery
load zip file
done
thanks to flipz and anyone else involved in this fix/project!
It works on Calkulin's too... it does screw up your power options screen (as stated on the site) and it has a transparent background (I personally was not a fan... looks too cluttered). Other than that... works fine.

Using BuglessBeatv0.3
Tried #1, it works terrible.
Instead of left to right, it's up and down.. but it SHOWS UP and if it's left to right.
Trying #2 right now.
Same results.
Trying #3 now.
Going down in order, lol.
Same results again.
Does not work well with Pete's BuglessBeast.
I just use "no lock" in the market.
Screen shuts off, but now, the volume button wakes it (I hate the power button). Goes to whichever screen it was on, when screen powered off.
No lock is free.
i use the security unlock code and its annoying to have to unlock it and then enter code. is there a way to get the lock screen to go away totally and only have the unclock code?

This is what I, ultimately, would like as well. This is how it worked on my Droid, and I really liked that. Unfortunately, I haven't found any methods to get this to work on the Evo yet.
So here's a weird one all!
All of a sudden my pattern lock which has been I'm effect changes back to swipe to unlock without me touching it.
I do have a new Bluetooth device and I thought I might have selected this to unlock my device when near but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Effectively I can come backto my device after a while and my pattern lock is no longer in affect and is I stead replaced with swipe to unlock.
Has anyone ever had this?

Maybe you have some settings turned on - under lock screen/smart lock. Try turning off all the smart lock functions there, maybe it will solve the problem.

nope, it's all turned off and it's just happened again

I know it's painful, but try doing a factory reset and check if it happens then. If it does, I'd send it for repairs to LG.
Thanks for the response, but I really don't think that's a fix. I'm still guessing this is something to do with Smart Lock, but I'm not sure where else to look as I thought this was turned off (and it shows as off) in the settings.
It would be worth noting that I'd already done a factory reset recently.....there is no evidence that this would rectify the issue...I believe it might be app/setting related.
Anyone any ideas?
Right it's definitely not a bluetooth device as I turned bluetooth off and it just did it again!

Does this happen in the same location each time? eg. at home
or has this happened in multiple places?
I'm just thinking it might be that you yourself or google have set a home location and that somehow the smart lock settings are picking that up and unlocking for you.
I've had this phone since launch day and I've never come accross this happening before.
You're rooted? If you have a bit of time and you're rooted, you can do a full titanium backup, reset and check if it's still happening. If it does, it's not app related, just your phone being weird and most probably in need of a reflash : D
If smart lock's disabled, it shouldn't do that, regardless if he had set a home location or not.
One more thing, if you can and you're willing, give us a list of apps you've got installed. I'm no expert, but I'm sure we can find a solution if we brainstorm hard enough.
Thanks for the responses guys.
This has happened in multiple locations for a start. Rather strange I grant you.
I am rooted and I could do a test but either way I'd like to know what had actually caused this...
As for apps... See attached. Nothing brand new though that I recall.

Sorry mate, no idea The only thing that comes to mind is that android wear software, but I assume that's the bluetooth device you mentioned.
Hi, I'm having a strange problem.
My Galaxy Note Edge's randomly having a graphic glitch, the color on screen becomes less color depth.
Like this;
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It will cease glitching after a simple reboot, but happens again totally random.
Is there any case like this, if not I think I should send it on warranty.
Info:
Model SM-N915F
Android 6.0.1
Thank you in advance.
Same problem, it gets stuck for a few seconds & does not respond and it boots to the lpck screen and i have to input password. Dont know what causes it but it started happening after the marshmallow update.

Relieved to know that I'm not only one with this, thanks elfeo0!
My situation is very similar to you, this happen after marshmallow update.
I'm hoping it could be fix by Factory Reset once, have to back up my phone first so I'll report back after that.

Hey all,
My Pixel 3 standard started freaking out today. I have initiated an exchange, yet thought perhaps someone may have had/fixed similar issues. I was in the middle of playing a game and my screen kept shutting off. I closed the application and found that SystemUI was crashing at random intervals, which is what was causing the screen to blank. The phone was also very slow at this time and wouldn't respond to several inputs. I also had a few instances where the phone opened random apps on its own. I tried going into safe mode and I don't seem to experience the issue. I am presently unrooted and on the latest November OTA. I've also tried removing any apps that updated today as that's when the issues started.
I've started the exchange process, yet it's five days out for a replacement and it's going to be painful to be without a fully functional phone for that amount of time.
Any ideas of what to try? I thought perhaps crash logs, yet I'm not sure which to parse...
Thanks!
I too started seeing System UI isn't responding message. Tapping to wake the phone or pressing hardware buttons had a delay in both normal mode and safe mode. I tried reapplying an OTA image from December and same result. So I tried Factory image vs OTA image, same result. Turned off always on display to see if that improved. Same result. Removed any case and screen protector to see if that was contributing, but same result.
I'm having a harder time getting google to initiate the exchange as I bought my device off swappa and can't access the original owner's email or order id. Never thought that was needed - until now. Buyer beware. I bought pixel 1 and 2 straight from google, but went secondhand with the pixel 3. My mistake.

Have you factory restored?
I have tried to factory reset my phone and I'm still having this problem.
It happens at random when getting an incoming call, I can't see the caller screen, the UI is frozen, can't silence it pressing the buttons, can't wake up the screen until the phone decides to let me use it.
It's so annoying.
I am stuck with this issue during this lockdown, can somebody help? Or tell me what worked for them?
I don't know the official name for the stylized image of a fingerprint that you touch to unlock the phone with your finger. But sometimes it displays in the wrong place when trying to unlock an app, for instance google pay or bitwarden password manager. It displays a little bit lower than the sensor location, so that if I put my finger on the image, it doesn't work. If I put my finger a bit above the image, it works. It always displays in the correct place for unlocking the phone. Here are some pics showing the problem. I put a stickie on the screen lined up to the bottom of the sensor. The first one is to unlock the phone. The second is when unlocking google pay and the third shows when I put a finger above the image. You can see how the bright white circle that lights up when you touch the sensor is in the correct place. I wonder if this is the same on the Pixel 6 and is one of the reasons that these phones have a reputation for unreliable fingerprint recognition.

I had this on day one after messing with the "Display cutout" settings in "Developer Options". I was unable to fix the issue but didn't spend too much time on it as I was just getting ready to unlock the bootloader which requires a wipe anyway. The wipe ultimately fixed the issue for me, and I haven't touched those settings since.
Perhaps try messing with the "Display cutout" settings, maybe it'll resolve the issue after some combination of changes.

I've never gone into developer options, so that can't be the cause for me. I'm running a completely stock phone. When I was first trying to figure out what was happening, I was having the problem and I reboooted and that seemed to fix the problem for a day or two and then it came back. Then I rebooted a few times, but the problem was not fixed those times.
Fwiw...I noticed the damn 'fingerprint' sorta hops 'round in a circular pattern during fingerprint enrollment...thought I was seein' things!
Any way to fix it, in all the app it appears wrong
