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? ** Affects: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1366814 Title: Configure lock pin or passphrase initially fails after upgrade to 229 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1366814/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
