[One (M7) Android Development] plazma247:
Dear Mr accidentally took exception to a turn of phrase :) (dont hate me yet read on, its my sense of humour).

Its great that the lock screen works for you, then there is hope it could work for others, but for me on both the 23rd and new 26th build only none or swipe options works, with a complete wipe of everything including internal storage just to be sure, I flashed just the rom and no gapps or root to be sure it was the rom (also tried with both installed). But when ever you set pin/pattern/password, it takes the primary and secondary entry and then hangs. On most other roms (for example linage 7.1) you would get a following page asking you about notification on the lock screen, older roms it would just return to lock settings. Its possible as this option has been changed or moved at some point why it can never complete the pin/pattern/password lock screen setup or maybe something else entirely, but the wizard never completes. If you reboot the phone at this point due to the crash, it will ask you for a pin, unlock and then again just hang.

Ive also seen others have been advised in the past that you have to wipe system completely to get back in, this is not the case, you can instead simply boot into twrp, goto file manager and delete a few files in /data/system:

*.key (there will likely be two files that end with .key delete both)

locksettings.db

locksettings.db-shm

locksettings.db-wal

After this you can reboot and your back to the default swipe to unlock without wiping out the system partition.

As for "process system isn't responding" isn't..., of course im aware the correct thing to do would be to click wait, as the 23rd build was only a few days before, i thought maybe wrongly it would be helpful if i would point it out, as it may have been something in the latest build that caused the message.

Its not something that ive seen happen on other roms, i think last time i saw a rom build that had the error on boot was on a s3 many many moons ago. Obviously without knowing what is causing it i cant comment further, but maybe if you could disclose the issue behind it its something that could be addressed or/and someone else can assist you on over coming the issue.

And thanks for the apology, its genuinely appreciated, ive been around xda many years, and its one of the far better corners of the internet, I find on large people here are warm, welcoming and most go out of their way to help others. So i hope you can forgive my sense of humour at addressing my message to Dear Mr.. I hope it gave you and maybe others a smile.

If you have any suggestions on the locks screen or would like me to test something please let me know, i hope you keep up the work on the rom.

As a side note regarding the video recording issue, I did see something in the camera about an option for video/picture stabilisation, im not sure if most of the modern phones implement this in software or hardware, but from what ive read most implement it using hardware, however as its something the m7 never had it was an option i was surprised to see. So could the video recording issue be as the camera app is trying to do stabilisation during a video recording and thus something the device is unable to potentially do? Would the 7.1 camera app work in 8.1 and if so would this get around the issue?

PS Nice wheels, has it got a lift kit?
