My Jolla1 shut down this morging because it thought it was low on battery. When I powered it up again I had to enter the SIM PIN, but not the phone one, i.e. my phone was basically unprotected. This had happened in the last days already.

[Edit: the "system PIN" is called Security code in Sailfish language]

I'm on 3.2.0 and have not seen this behavior earlier, but this is no situation I'm in often, so this does not necessarily mean a thing.

[edit] as I later found out it has nothing to do with low battery, the phone simply does not ask for a PIN on start _at_ _all_!

Could it be 3.2.0 bug? I often have my phone shutdown because of low battery and I have not seen it. On the other hand I keep it locked most of the time when it happens (usually listening to youtube).

Installation of 3.2.0 removed the device PIN on my phone. I had to reconfigure it.

Same for me, after the upgrade to 3.2.0 my Jolla 1 forgot that I had a PIN set at all...

My update to 3,2,0 did not lose the pin code. My device is Xperia X.
