Screen Unlock Pattern Settings

To secure data and limit phone access, set the phone
to require a screen unlock pattern each time you turn
on the device, or every time the phone wakes up
from sleep mode (when the screen automatically
turns off).

Setting an Unlock Pattern

Creating a screen unlock pattern increases security
on the phone. When you enable the User visible
pattern field, you will draw an unlock pattern on the
screen whenever you want to unlock the phone’s
buttons or touch screen. When you activate the User
tactile feedback field, you feel vibration as feedback
while drawing the pattern.

Note: Make sure the Require Pattern field is activated.
