Couldn't Answer a Call Tonight

[anon(5719825)]

I know I saw this posted here before and I couldn't find that thread.

Tonight, I couldn't answer a call. the little circle thing would not slide, it just would not move. All I could do was wait for the person to hang up and then try to call her back. This time as I was dialing the number, she called me back and the phone was already unlocked so I was able to answer it.

I have the lock screen set up to face unlock and maybe that is why?

Face unlock is a stupid waste, especially when you're not well lit.

It is but there was no option to unlock the phone other than the normal screen when you get a phone call. Sliding the little circle would not do a thing, the circle refused to move.

I've had that happen a couple times. Morally when a text and phone call hit the phone at the same time.

This happens to me on occasion. While I have no idea what causes it, a good way around this while it happens is to press the power button, which will turn the display off. Then press the power button again. The display will come back on and you will be able to answer the phone. Hope that helps.
