S4 Lock Screen PIN occasionally bugs
Occasionally, and without any discernible reason, my PIN-locked Galaxy S4 won't accept my PIN. I have had the phone for about 6 months and this has happened 4 times so far. I know for a fact it can't be anyone changing it, and that I have entered the correct PIN. I have literally turned the screen off, held the phone in my hand for a minute while I did something else, turned the screen on and encountered this problem. A simple reset has, so far, fixed the problem, though the last two times have been within the last three days, a sharp increase in frequency that prompted me to worry. It's not a major issue and has so far been nothing more than an annoyance, but if the reset ever doesn't work I have files I don't want to lose on my phone with a factory reset. If this is a known issue (that I just wasn't able to find a thread related to) fine, as long as a restart will always work I'm content. Otherwise, is there any fix I can attempt?
