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. 1. Press ➔ and then tap Location and security. (Settings) ➔ 2. Tap Set screen lock ➔ Pattern. 3. Read the instructions then tap Next. 4. Review the onscreen animation procedure for drawing a pattern and tap Next when you are ready to draw a pattern. 5. Draw your pattern by touching your first on-screen point. Then, without removing your finger from the screen, drag your finger over adjacent points until the gray trace line overlaps each point and they are highlighted with a green circle. 6. When you have connected at least four dots in a vertical, horizontal or diagonal direction, lift your finger from the screen and tap Continue. 7. Confirm the new pattern by redrawing it and then tapping Confirm. The Unlock pattern is set.
