I have numeric PIN for locking my phones. In LG G2, when I type the PIN, only "asterisks" show up in the type box. But in LG G3, the latest keyed digit show up in the type box for about 2 seconds before becoming an asterisk. Is there anyway to make it behave the same way as in G2, where there is no digit showing at any time?

Hello,
The exchange password policy was pushed to my phone after setting up my work e-mail. This is fine and does not bother me. I am having trouble figuring out how to enable the lock feature before the timeout period so that I can lock my phone whenever I want vs. waiting for the timeout period.
I have gone to settings and lock and it does lock the keys but does not require my password to unlock the phone. Is this how it is supposed to behave? Any idea on how I can lock the phone on demand to password protect my device?
Thank you all.
not sure what version you have but the Verizon Wireless TP2 when lock is enabled under Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock, it has Lock as the right softkey on the main screen.
I have the sprint version and when i go to Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock the phone goes into lock mode and has the keypad displayed for me to enter the password. The issue is though that I don't need to enter my password to unlock the phone. As long as I hit the unlock soft key on the bottom left hand side the phone unlocks itself. I believe it should require me to input my password and then hit unlock.
Just an fyi I do have a password setup on my phone and it does work as I expect it to when the phone times out after 15 minutes and locks itself automatically. I just want to be able to do this without waiting.
if u go to all setting, personal, buttons, then end key, you can choose to display a quick list by holding the end key where you can select to lock the phone or just lock the phone by holding the end key.
Thank you! That worked and it is prompting me for the password to unlock the phone just as I needed.
glad 2 help
For security reasons, I have a 10 digit code set for my HD2. However, the default behavior of the hang up/on/off button not only blanks the screen, but also activates the lock as well, which means that I have to enter a 10 digit code every time.
What I want, is to change the behavior of the button, so that it only blanks the screen, and to use another program, such as ThrottleLock to secure the screen instead of the lock password. I've set the phone to lock in 30 minutes, so that if I don't activate the phone in 30 minutes, then I'll have to enter the 10 digit code.
Any help would be appreciated.
Nevermind. Found the cab I needed here.
If I unlock the sk by sliding the unlock door up it dials a disconnected number. If I slide it down it doesn't happen. Any idea why this is happening?
You can customize what happens when you unlock by sliding up if I remember correctly

Hi,
I Googled the following question and watched a YouTube vidoe where it suggested using an access code of either 0000 or 1234 which I did but it would not allow me to "pair" /access the area where the manual suggests you can change the Bluetoothing timing out to never time out.
The process I've followed is to to tap the Settings icon which brings up the next screen and then tapping the Bluetooth icon (switched on) where there is a green check mark next to the tablet model and says ready for Bluetooth.
Underneath that is PC-Admin which when you tap that you get a screen prompting you for the 4 digit access code. An access code was never set on this tablet so I tried the 0000 and then tried the 1234, to no avail.
Is there a place/way to change the access code so I can enter this area to extend the Bluetoothing to "Never Time Out"?
If one can not change the access code, then how else can I change the Bluetoothing to Never Time Out?
Thank you.
Hi, few days ago my standard Screen lock type = PIN&Fingerprits changed without my involvement to Swipe&Fingerprits. When I want to change it back to PIN&Fingerprints, it "works" that way that it can be changed in Settings/Lock screen and security, but in reality when I swith off or restart the phone, I can unlock the pohone with Swipe or Fingerprints, no PIN (the same is with Pattern and Password), i.e. only Swipe or Fingerprits is the unlocking way regardless what is set in Settings/Lock screen and security/Screen lock type. All updates incl.security are the latest ones. Any idea what is causing this? Thx
I think when you reboot the phone, it forces you to use a certain unlock method it deems most secure, all subsequent unlocks after that one should be the way you set it
