Lock(screen) not working !

My lockscreen is set to Music (if that's relevant)
I've tried many times, that i can use multiple apps before the phone actually realise that HEY, im locked !!! - and then comes the Swiping lockscreen...
today i managed to
- open my banking app
- go to google play
- downloader another app
- open that app
- fiddle around in the app
then BOOM - the phone remembers - IM LOCKED !...
what the hell ?
Im terrified of loosing/forgetting/get stolen my Android ... because of the lack in sercurity !!
on my iPhone, i had setup 4 numbers to unlock the phone - and if 10 unsuccessful login atempts was made, the phone would wipe all memory.
on the HTC One i dont feel safe at all - any noob can practically steal all data from the phone with little effort !
what to do ?
anyone else feels the same ?

at this moment:
I've set lockscreen to happen: Immediately ... so by pressing on 'standby' the phone should lock !
- I press 'standby' to turn off the screen
- I press 'standby' to turn on the screen and now im on the dashboard (home) !!!!!
- if i click home-button, the phone locks and i then have to swipe my pattern
WTF !!!

Video of whats happening...

Hi! I just tried what you did on the video and it's working on mine. If I set it to immediately click the power button to screen off then screen on the phone would show me the lockscreen.
I suggest you try doing a factory reset or at least try to update your phone software. I'm on firmware 1.29.401.16 so it must be a bug on previous versions.

Hi.. im glad that its not just me going crazy...
There are currently no available updates in my region of the world so I guess I'll have to try resetting the phone...
Currently its running 401.13...
It'll be a good experiment to see what data and settings are actually backed up...
Thanks

Ouch HTC is in for some major trouble, Apple will surely sue them for patent infringement because being able to circumvent the lockscreen clearly is an ios feature

[Q] [help] problem with Xperia T

I don't know is this really a problem or not, but it really bother. my broblem is about multitasking, it looks like my phone doesn't have multitasking (like ios! )
for example I open opera and let it load some pages then ttpod and play a music, after them go to an explorer, and I go back to opera it's now closed and I have to re-load the pages.
overall I can't keep more than 2-3 apps open at the same time.
is there any solution for this problem?

first of all, so happy to see you here

we have to write English, otherwise we'll get kicked
this is not so normal, actually the only possible limitation for background proccess is placed in Settings/Developers Options
here you can find how many apps are keep alive when you switch to another, and if you haven't manipulate this part, there should be somthing else...
try it, set it to the "Default Number" or "Max"

Or use chrome, I have no problems with that keeping pages loaded

I've tried background process in the setting, but I still have this problem. There is no "max" option, only "at most 4 processes"
I've tried some tweaks with some apps such as Pimp my Rom and Android tuner but to be honest it made it even worse! and I had to do full wipe!
@greg, it's not just about opera, I can't run more than 2-3 apps in background.
I have stock 4.1.2 with doomkernel v7 rotted and unlocked.

you use opera for FB, hm?
that version of Opera mini comes with many bugs, one of them is AutoRotation, when you rotate your phone, it jumps out of the app, maybe another bug is what you are facing, not being able to chache the pages in background, MAYBE...
try another browser, like Default or Dolphin or Chrome, and see if the problem is still there with those apps, if not, then the problem is BUGGY opera mini, which i guess so

Oh, please! IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT OPERA! I said it "just as an example"
I can't keep running more than 2-3 apps open at the same time. For example I open A and then B an keep them open then go to menu and open app C, by opening C my phone closes app A!

i DID understand, Kamiar...
it's so weird
never experienced this issue, in NO phone of mine
i know this might a bit noobie guide, but first of all, uninstall unnecessary apps, maybe you've loaded your phone with a ton of apps, which certainly eat up RAM even if they are not running, that's the way Android manages RAM, so, uninstall whatever thing you don't use...
if the problem still exists there, then update your phone or flash another firmware, for example go back to ICS to see it helps or not..
and let us know, we will hepl you as much as possilbe, bro

All my apps are less than 80, I've uninstalled or freezed many apps by titanium back up. I have always more than 200-300 free RAM, and with a task killer I have about 400-500 free RAM space.
I have this problem since I've bought this phone (more than 3 months) and during this time I always had this problem, but recently it became worse.

Removal of bloatware really helps here. I find Firefox sometimes closes as it uses a lot of memory, but it beats all others in terms of usability + ability to download any files (sometimes chrome or stock just downloads a dumb .txt file, can't believe they still haven't fixed that) but yeah remove useless apps it helps a lot

Photos not showing up after taking pictures

ok i searched this issue but found nothing useful or helpful to fix this but every picture i take seems to dissappear after a few minutes and all i get is a gray triangle with an ! mark inside it for all pictures taken by the camera. anyone else have this issue?
im on bady boyz rom
rooted s-offed
h/k m8

No body is having issues with pictures not displaying correctly?? Im on ViperONEM8 rom but it did this on the stock rom and badboyz as well. must not be rom related but i dont know so sum one have any ideas what the issue is? thanks

Have you tried changing the storage location? Also, are you restoring your gallery each time you try a new ROM? You could have the folder hidden on accident and as you restore the gallery that folder becomes hidden again. See if you cannot find the photos another way, for example: Quickpic or ES File Browser.

thank you for helping.
unfortunately yes i did try changing the storage location, in the camera app i changed it to ext sdcard & phone storage both same issue. also i used the Xposed module "Downloads2SD" & "Pictures2SD" both to change the location but still same issue. as for restoring my gallery, no i dont restore it at all when installing new rom. unless somehow it automatically restores from my google account but i dont think it does.
I also have used Root Browser & ES File Explorer to look in every directory on phone and sdcard for the pictures and they cant be found anywhere.
thanks again for replying and trying to help appreciate it much. any other ideas tho?

What happens when you use a different camera app? If that doesn't work either I would suggest an RUU. If an RUU doesn't work I would suggest returning the phone.

still not working with other camera apps. im gonna try RUUing once and see if it still does it. i took a few pics today and all seemed fine until i went to view them later on then they were just displaying the gray triangle thing.. one pic was there and viewed fine one sec then the next its just like the others. i just looked in the gallery now and it shows the previews of these pics but i tap to open them and get the triangle again. its weird & really frustrating i took tons of great pics over the time with this phone and lost them all from this, except of course the stupid test shots ive taken of my wall or whatever pointless shots.. they seem to stay fine its just the important ones that wont.. aarrrghhh gonna RUU right now.
here is a screenshot of what displays for the pictures.. View attachment 2782818

come on isnt anybody having issues with pictures similiar at all?!
pictures i take sometimes show with parts of it having a section thats gray.. usually more then 50% of the pic is that way otherwise there is no pic just a black screen with the ! as shown in previous post here. can anyone please help me. ive lost a lot of important good pics due to this.
you all have always helped me with any issues ive had.. thanks for all that. and thanks for your help with this.

I am having the same issue i moved all my pictures to the external storage card to free up space but now the pics are in limbo i cant find them i just have the triangle where they use to be. the same thing holds true for apps

im beginning to suspect that KK write protection with the external sdcard is the culprit for this but im on viperonem8 and have tried the fixes i found that are suppose to fix the write protection issue and still having same issues. so anyone have any working fixes at all please let us know thanks

I am having the exact same issue and it is frustrating as hell. Especially when I get a great picture, then I go to show someone and it is ****ING GONE.. The only way that I can seem to save them if is when I take them, I immediately share them. After doing extensive research, I have narrowed it down to 2 possible issues.
1) The SD card is somehow corrupted, I purchased a 64GB SD card from eBay and I just recently read about an SD card scandal that was going on which could be the culprit. To test this, I am first going to try with a smaller card that I know works. If that doesn't work, I am going to have the pictures stored on the phone and see if that keeps them.
2) This problem really started to show itself after I downloaded an app called OneGallery, I don't really know if that has anything to do with it, or if it is completely coincidence. If replacing the SD card doesn't work, deleting this app will be the next step.
I love the phone too much to just turn it in or swap it out.

WhatsApp's video problems, please HELP me I'm desperate!!

Hello guys, I'm very desperate to find a solution to my problem, which is that when I record a video (with the stock camera) and try to send it through whatsapp it later kind of converts itself in a slow motion video (I DON´T HAVE IDEA HOW THE F* IT DOES THAT). If I watch the video recorded with the stock camera on the gallery it looks normal, nothing weird, but after I send it to someone through whatsapp the video now has bad audio synchronization and the movements look like if it was a slowmo video.
I've already tried uninstalling, previous versions of whatsapp, tried installing the most recent versions of it downloaded directly from their official web page, I even unrooted my phone reinstalled my official rom which is PL10 - B839 (Emui 3.1 - Lollipop 5.1.1), I did the factory reset...but nothing have fixed this utterly annoying problem. I don't know what else I can try, please help me guys!!!

You didn't need to do all that. WhatsApp has limit on file size you can send and it changes the framerate when you try sending a big file size video. The best way around this is to lower the quality of the video recording in camera settings.

Hi @HowlingSoul, did you get a solution for this? My wife has it on her phone (Huawei) as well. I can't get rid of it! Uninstalled / Reinstalled Whatsapp, cleared phone storage, reset full phone including full format but to no avail.
@sarcastical; it's not that at all. It happens with short videos, long videos etc etc. The sound is still in actual "rate" so to say. Lowering the camera settings has 0 impact.

No, I haven't found a solution for this problem and WhatsApp still doesn't give me a reply for my email explaining it. Maybe you can also send an email to them to this address [email protected]. If you have rooted your devices I recommend unrooting them and testing if the problem goes away (in my case it didn't, I just rooted my phone to change the font style). I had to send the email directly from Gmail because when I sent it through WhatsApp - Contact Us they saw that I had root in my device and just ignored my email. Please keep sharing everything related to this so we can find a solution.

Hmm that's very strange, send an email to them too to [email protected] I hadn't had this problem.

Sorry was gone for a bit ...
It all of a sudden worked for 1 day! I got a nice video of my kid in actual motion. Of course I hadn't changed anything. But then the next day all back to slow motion again ... I will send them an email. My phone is unrooted.

Hi guys!! I have good news, with the new update (2.16.107) the video problem is gone! now I can normally record a video (even a 1080p video) and send it through WhatsApp and it will look normal and the audio is now properly synchronized too! Please, tell me if the update works for you too.
They didn't answer my email though.

Hi guys! Well.....this issue exists as of today with the P9 Plus! Also there are issues with Snapchat too, where the camera auto zooms and other sound issues. Why does Huawei keeps having these odd camera issues with the most popular apps! We just hope they fix it with an update soon....maybe never!

Gallery Scrolling Bug [SOLVED]

Well Read the orig. Post for the back store and at bottom ive included the user who supplied the right awnser and resolved the issue;
Im kinda disappointed in the note 8's stock gallery and really just fed up with the lack of options here to get it working correctly.'
I was just going to keep my issue to myself until i check reviews under the Gallery app via Samsung and seen that its not just me effected by this annoying as H3LL scrolling bug.
Anyone who has a good amount of pictures should be able to re-create the bug themselves.
Pretty much in a nut shell if you open a ALBUM and slowly scroll down the entire screen shakes violently like its having a seizure.
I contacted the other Dev i work with and he wasn't able to duplicate but also doesn't have nearly as many photos on his device as I do.
This really just ruins the gallery for me personally whenever I try to show someone a beautiful photo this device takes and it just represents the entire phone like crap IMO. Let me know if you guys have the same issue and your thoughts behind this one,
and i'm sorry to anyone who finds the bug and annoys the h3ll out of them as well. I guess sometimes ignorance is bliss.

As well as another source I don't have from another forum/post

The remapping apps like Bixby remapper are causing the overlay issue with gallery for whatever reason. I feel a little bit silly now but atleast there is a response. Thank you everyone this made my day a ton better not having to deal with the darn shuttering gallery!

To point out you ususally have to be scrolling near the top half of the screen to cause it but it's done it to me at all locations on the screen randomly. Just slowly drag up (to scroll down through your photos inside a album) and near the top it will start to shutter heavily and if you stop scrolling and just leave finger on screen it just shakes like a earthquake.. ughh.. contacting Samsung today for a resolution time frame here. Just super annoyed at this point.
And yes I fully wiped my device and restored with the stock Odin img as well to fully verify it wasn't a app or defect in the Initial install.

I have seen it on youtube, I have more than 30 albums with up to 900 pictures each on SD card and so far I have not been able to reproduce it and I tried for good few min. Actually it is surprisingly smooth and extremely fast considering it is reading from 256 GB Samsung Evo SD card.

I cannot reproduce this bug. Glad I don't have it.

Interesting. I would try moving them to internal memory and see if the problem persists. That might narrow it down a bit as to whether it's a problem with your device or the sd card.

Little shhhh.. it seems like that has done the trick.. darn it.
I'm gonna test some more.. looks like bbr is gonna have to stay gone. Great catch man. I will move your awnser to the op and change the info to direct towards this as well to help others!
So glad its simple as this... I tested without apps and it worked fine but once I let smart switch restore and my gallery app updated it came back. I guess I should have done more testing!

i would def agree. Glad you took the time to supply the much appreciated answer. I've also added this info to Samsung site to help other users.
sadly Samsung probably knows its there and intended it to be there to make you not re-map the button. Grr.. they should allow remapping to whatever app you wish!

Weird. I don't have this issue, have bxactions installed, have >26xx images on my SD card.

I had the bug, Samsung 256 GB sdcard and over 5,000 pics and videos. I did have a Bixby remap installed...uninstalled the app, reset cache on the gallery, no issues so far. the stutter would accur no matter my scrolling location. I will further test to see if the stutter comes back

Interesting. There was another thread unrelated to this but was causing lag and stutter issues. The culprit: a bixby remapper app.
Perhaps once Sammy releases an OTA (since the official device release date is near) this may fine a lot of little bugs (for example, some are having issues posting videos to instagram)...

omfg THANK you. I thought I was the only one going through this as I haven't been able to find anyone else experiencing this until today. And then I nearly ordered a warranty replacement when I read the top post and saw that no one else was able to recreate the bug. It's a good thing I kept scrolling through and reading more comments. If I had done a warranty exchange, I would have just kept experiencing the same issue, never knowing that it was the Bixby Remapper causing the issue

My sd card will arrive in a few days, so all internal. I didn't have a lot of pictures (below 500). One of the first things I did was to install Bixby Remapper, so from my point of few, the bug there from the beginning. Removed it, seems to be working normally. Bought my Note8 from T-Mobile Austria.
Thank you for the solution.

Whew i was wondering what was up & was waiting to the next update in hope that it would be fixed. I never knew until i read hear that it was down to Button remapping.....:good: thanks for making this post (Very annoying issue resolved) helpful indeed....:good:
