Unblanking Issue

Hei,

I just updated my SailfishX to the latest EA. I wanted to configure unlocking to a similar method than that of the fruitphone has: - when locked, press power button to unlock. - when unlocked, press power button to lock. - autolock timeout set to immediately.

Now when unlocked, and I press power button to lock (immediately), and then try to unlock the phone, the lock screen remains. When swiped away, an empty screen (like an overlay) comes up. When locked from this screen via the power button, the same happens over and over. But when locked via top swipe, the phone can be unlocked.

Anyone else experiencing the same?

Some comments to @spiirion

Response to @spiiroin's comments: First of all, thank you!

The tag states the version: 2.2.0.29

So, the only thing I modified was this:

mcetool --set-display-off-single-powerkey-press=unblank,tkunlock

This way the phone is supposed to directly unlock if the fingerprint is recognized while pressing the power button. If not so, the keypad should come up requesting the unlock code.

I never ever installed any patches on any of my phones running SailfishOS.

For now, as a workaround, I set the autolock time to 5 minutes. This more or less helps, but it is not what I would like. My goal is to lock immediately (with or without power key).

EDIT 3.0.0

Hi @spiiroin,

I gave it another try with the latest EA. This time it is 100% reproducable. Here is how:

mcetool --set-low-power-mode=enabled

Now, when LPM screen is on, touch the biometric sensor and press the power button. The phone seems to be unlocked as no keypad comes up, however; by swiping to either side the "ghost screen" slides in.

Falling back to the original setup for the time being, as the prvious version gave this issue only occassionally.
