Is there a way to configure my WM6 PDA to always display the today screen at power on? Right now if I turn it off with PIE or another app in front and then turn it back on it doesn't display the today screen. It turns back on with whatever app that I last used in front. I don't what to close the apps just power on to the today screen, so I am always reminded of my tasks and appointments.
Thanks for any help!
have you tried messing about with settings->today->items timeout to go back to today screen timer ?
Yeah but the shortest is 1 hour and I'd want it set at around 5 minutes.
Hi everyone,
I have a problem with LRX21O on my Nexus 5 32 GB. I installed it on day one and everything went fine. I was able to press the power button to get to the lockscreen then either swipe right to phone, left to camera, or up to unlock, or just leave it alone to re-lock after checking my notifications.
I then turned on a PIN lock under security and played with it a bit to see if it could use my FitBit One as a Smart Unlock device (no dice because it doesn't do a bluetooth pairing, it just syncs). So... I turned the PIN back off.
I now have no lockscreen. Pressing 'power' just sends me straight to whatever was happening when the screen turned off. I've tried turning various screen lock methods on and off and goofing with it that way, but I can't get a password-free lockscreen to show up again! ARGH!
EDIT: NEVER MIND I'M AN IDIOT
I had been chosing 'none' instead of 'swipe' because I went to a list called security->screen lock and was figuring it was a "security" setting (swiping does not equal security). I somehow did not see Swipe even though I looked at the screen with Swipe on it like 47 times.
I'm using S view cover on my Note 4. Whenever I close the cover and open it again in within few seconds the screen already locked automatically. Under settings I set the screen to automatically lock in 10 minutes so theoretically it should not locked when I open the cover within few seconds.
I'm using pattern locking for the screen lock by the way.
My older phone Note 3 with S view cover doesn't behave like this. It won't get locked until 10 min (which is my setting).
Anyone else using S view cover having the same behavior?

I just tested this, I've confirmed that on mine when I close the S-View cover it does in fact stay unlocked for however long I've set the automatic lock time to. The setting I'm changing is in the lock screen settings, called "Lock Automatically", and changes how long it waits to lock the phone after the screen turns off. I tried it set both at 5 seconds and 1 minute, and after closing the S-View cover I timed it for 15 seconds starting once the S-View screen turned off. When it was set to 5 seconds the phone was locked when I opened the cover, and when it was set to 1 minute the phone was still unlocked. I'm not sure why yours locks immediately, but I'd probably just double check to make sure your lock time setting is correct.
Also I will mention I'm using the fingerprint unlock, not the pattern unlock, so I'm not sure if that makes any difference- I'll try out the pattern later and see.
I tried lock automatically for 5, 10, minutes, etc still the cover will lock it within few seconds as if the setting is 'lock immediately'.
I also tested with both pattern & fingerprint. I had the same immediate locked result.

Ok I did another test. Apparently now it works under 'normal' mode. So far most of the time I'm using it with 'power saving' mode ON. I turned it off and seems OK now. This is weird because my old Note 3 works with power saving ON and OFF.
Soul777toast, does your one work with Power saving mode ON?

I don't know because I've never had to turn power saving mode on. I've got a 30-40 minute commute each way every day for work and my phone sits in a dock charging for the whole time, so I basically never get below 70% or so on most days. I did test it one day just to see how the battery would last and didn't plug in to charge at all for the whole day- normal useage from 6:00 AM to 10:30 PM, with bluetooth, NFC, and location on the whole time, and wifi on periodically. By the end of the day I was only down to 35%. My conclusion: this battery rocks! If I get around to it I'll try testing with power-saving mode on, but unless you're seriously pushing the phone and can't charge overnight I haven't seen much need for the power-saving mode. For that matter, if you ARE in a situation where you need to save power, you probably actually WANT the phone to lock immediately, rather than using resources keeping it running!
Ok. I guess my concern is why it doesn't work in power saving mode. It should work the same way just like note 3. Anyway let me know if had a chance to test it out. Thanks.

I am using LED Flip cover and immediately when I close the cover the phone gets locked.
I have:
- 10 min auto lock
- pin
- power saver mode off
- newest software update
Changing the above setting don't matter.
--> Looks like it's not only you and the S-View Cover...
So i had my G3 for a out 2 months so far. Love it. Recently ran into this bug. My screen auto turns off when I'm using the phone. Video, browsing, texting etc. It happens randomly. Even if i just unlock the phone and use it for like 10 seconds the screen will turn off on me and i gotta wake it back up. Anyone know about this? I am running 4.4.2
Go to settings - display and change from 1 minute to 10 minutes. This will eat more battery but it will not shut off so quick
Hey,
I've been using Swipe for my lock screen setting for the past 5 years - since I've had an s3. Just recently, within the past week or so, my phone isn't showing me my lock screen. I use my lock button or my phone goes to sleep for several minutes and when I wake up my phone, it's already unlocked.
To my knowledge, no settings have been changed and after googling I still can't figure out a reason why. I don't have location, bluetooth, smartstay, always on, none of that on.
Any help would be appreciated!
