Public bug reported:

I experienced this with mako and manta. After updating to #229 I tried
to configure a pin/passphrase to enable developer mode, but setting the
pin failed, and entering a password fails too.

Open System Settings -> About this phone -> Developer mode ->  Lock security -> 
4 digit PIN code
The screen shows two fields to enter and confirm the pin code
Enter a pin in both fields e.g. 1234 
Press Set 
System Settings complains with a red failure message.

Then go Back and to Passphrase
The screen shows three fields (previous, new, confirmation)
Leaving the first field empty or put an arbitrary string there and enter a new 
password to the other fields
Press Set
System Settings complains again with a failure. 
Go Back

Note that  System Settings indicates that the phone is locked by
passphrase.


Going back and selecting Swipe (no security) again and then setting a PIN code 
or phassphrase resolved the problem, now in both cases no existing PIN or 
password is required. 

There might be an issue with the Lock configuration due to the update?
