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

Hey,
Since a couple days ago, my note screen is always on.
It doesn't lock itself or dim itself automatic.
I changed my time-out time to 15sec and have that "camera screen on feature" off.
Can someone help me out here, because it's really annoying and drains my battery

You haven't downloaded anything that would force the screen to stay on? That is the only thing I can think of.

some news-mags apps do force screen on. See in settings of apps You installed immediately before ........................
Just had to reboot, was a long time ago since 1 first rebooted
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?

I've noticed a very subtle but strange behavior on KitKat generally. When I unlock my device, there is usually a smooth window animation that leads you into the home screen. However, if you access the camera by swiping right on the lock screen, the next time when you unlock the device, the animation seemed to be gone and just enter the home screen really quick. I set the window animation scale to 10x in developer option just to see if I was right and I found out that indeed when you enter the camera from lock screen, the animation is gone. It does come back after a reboot though. I am wondering if this happens to everyone or just me.

It is very subtle but somehow I just feel there is something acting differently.
Haven't seen anyone mentioned it yet so i thought I was the only one...
Bug confirmed, I had the same thing but not sure what's causing it.

Like others have said, this is a confirmed bug. An easy workaround though is to swipe left on the lock screen as if you're going to access the camera then quickly swiping right before it goes into the camera app. In other words, swipe left then right.
If it doesn't work for you after you try it, let me know and I'll try to be more specific.

I would like to completely skip the lock screen that has the shortcuts, etc that pops up soon as I hit the power button. I'm not talking about the lock screen with my password.
I've hunted and haven't found anything yet. That lock screen is not helpful to me. Maybe will have to wait on custom roms.
Thanks for any help.
Never mind ... Had to fix my typos.
Settings>Security. Put a check in the box next to "Bypass lock screen on wake".
Thanks so much. I've hunted and had tons of htc phones. How did I miss that.

Well, hopefully it does what you want. I played with it a bit here and it does work if the time you set to lock the phone has been reached. Just takes you directly to your pattern or pin lock. However, if that time hasn't passed, you still see the lock screen when you wake the phone up. At least that's how it works on mine.
Same here. Also, I still get the lock icon for two seconds then it auto skips to the lock pattern. Oh well. You're post was a big help though.

Just noticed what you're talking about. That initial lock screen pops up if it hasn't been 10 minutes.

That's odd. When I turn mine on it goes directly to pattern lock. I never see the first screen. Perhaps pattern lock and pin lock act differently. Don't know why they would though.
Yeah ... Love the phone but little things like this make it a pain at times. I like to hit the power button most of the time and go straight to my screen.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I use Tasker in combination with Secure Settings to do this. Wifi gets turned on automatically whenever it connects to the tower outside of town here. Then when I get home, it automatically connects to wifi (only if it's my wifi). When that happens, it turns off pattern lock. When I leave and the wifi disconnects, it turns pattern lock back on again. It's a little buggy on this phone though. Hit and miss it seems. I'm guessing it might have something to do with the way our root works so I'm waiting on s-off before I start trouble shooting it. It worked great on my Razr Maxx. Never missed.
Why push the power button? Just swipe up on the screen to unlock the phone and go directly to these home screen...
I hear ya. Yeah it gets a little old sweeping that much screen up 30 times a day just to get to my home screen. Going s off and custom ROM will help, as well.

That still takes me to that initial lock screen with the shortcuts.

I do not have this option in Security... why?
Do you have pattern lock or a pin lock set up? The option doesn't become available until you set up one of the various types of locks.

That makes sense - have pin lock, so nevermind.
