[Q] Broken Lockscreen - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've had this issue through GB , ICS and JB (AOSP, MIUI, CM) on my Nexus and Galaxy Ace. The lock screen won't unlock (any slide like unlock) its like the middle left side of the screen goes dead. The only way go fix it is to lock it then unlock it again. Anyone else facing issues like this or is this a well known bug?

[Q] Notification bar while locked.

How come the notification bar is accessible while the phone is on the lock screen? Is this part of ICS or something HTC did? I am using stock lock screen with no password. Any way to disable this?
The notification pane is available when the phone is locked, but not while it is locked and secured. If you want to stop this, put a pin/pattern lock on (which you should have anyway...)
This is a feature of ICS.
This is about the 12th Android phone I have had.. the other 11 did not allow pulling down of the notification pane when on the lock screen, whether there was a security pin or not.
Thanks mesasone, thats what I needed to know.
A nice feature, at that. Recently noticed it myself. Running ICS AOKP on my old old Evo. Will be getting a one x variant (Evo 4g lte on sprint) in about 2wks (release day).

It's an ICS feature.
Can this "feature" be diabled. My phone keeps on getting unlocked and changing settings while in my pocket but I don't want to have a pin?
Smh in general really

The above link is dead when I tried it last.
Has this Question been answered. I am having the same problem. I do not want a PIN or Dots, only the "Swipe" while locked. And while Docked, the Volume Buttons, and the Notification Bar can be dealt with, which allows accidental settings to be changed on the Lock screen.
I have found "Volume Locker" to control the volume, to always have it set to High no matter the volume keys inputs, and now am looking to disable the notification bar while on the Lock Screen.
Any help would be great, how is this not an option inside of Sense.

Unresponsive bottom 1/8 inch of screen.

Hi guys I recently got my nexus s and started fooling around with it and I've noticed the very bottom of my screen doesnt respond to touch and while its a relatively minor problem it means I often miss type words. I am on rooted stock but have tried apex with matrix.

Restore your stock back up and see what happens. If it still happens, return your phone.

Just Flash It !!!
There is a touchscreen tester built into ICS Developer options. If there is no response at all after a quick test, try going back to gingerbread or something along those lines, with a full wipe in between. If there is still no response it's most likely a hardware issue. You'll have to either live with it or give samsung a ring (or possibly replace the entire screen and try your luck).
Same issue with gb and I've read about these problems before so I'm not the only one

any follow-up to this? what did it turn out to be?
this happened to me intermittently, recently. however, it seems to be a permanent thing now...
It can happen if you are not using original charger. Or touch dies. It could be kernel related too, but if you are on stock one and got this.. I would say it needs repair.

Lock screen gone

Hello I am not sure at all what cause this problem but no matter what I do I cannot get my phone to have a lock screen. In fact I can't even to get it to slide in the beginning it just boots into my home screen and if I turn the screen on and off it goes straight back to the homescreen without me having to unlock anything. I've gone into the settings and made multiple types of passwords but none of them show up when I turn my screen on then off. I'm running paranoid android and any help would be nice

[Q] Black screen after unlock

I've had this issue since I flashed cm7 coming from cm10. Ever since after I lock my phone and then try to unlock it the screen turns on with a black fill and doesn't react to the touches. So basically I can't lock my phone without having to reboot it afterwards. Help?
