** Description changed:
- Build r91
- Steps to reproduce:
+ Build r91
+
1. set up a SIM PIN or make sure the inserted SIM has already a set up SIM
PIN (reboot device if needed)
2. after reboot, don't unlock and navigate to System Settings > Security &
Privacy > SIM PIN
- 3. what you se is a green tick on the toggle next to the SIM PIN and beneath
that a "Change PIN..." button
- Expected result: Users need an option to unlock the SIM card from this
- view. Tapping on the toggle brings up a dialog to enter the SIM PIN but
- once this is done user switches off asking for the SIM PIN as well.
- Therefor the unlock should function independently.
+ What you see: A green tick on the toggle next to the SIM PIN and beneath
+ that a "Change PIN..." button
+
+ What you should see: Some way to unlock the SIM without turning off the
+ SIM PIN.
+
+ There are three relevant states for a SIM:
+ (A) no SIM PIN set
+ (B) SIM PIN set, SIM locked
+ (C) SIM PIN set, SIM unlocked.
+
+ If a SIM PIN is set, when you start up the phone you have the choice to
+ unlock it (switch from B to C) or not (stay on B).
+
+ If you don't unlock it, you can't make or receive calls, send or receive
+ SMS, or use cellular data in any app. And you probably can't predict
+ ahead of time whether you'll want to do any of those things.
+
+ Currently System Settings only lets you turn the SIM PIN on (A to C) or
+ off (C to A), not to unlock it. It's not reasonable to expect every app,
+ that might use cellular data, to provide its own access point for
+ unlocking the SIM. Therefore, System Settings should let you do this
+ too.
