• Clearing passcode delay bug
–Doesn’t immediately interrupt delay
–Doesn’t clear failure count
• Don’t mistype your new passcode the first time
• Otherwise count continues, you’re delayed again
• Clear simple passcode with panel up
First, after several passcode failures, a delay gets added between
attempts. If MDM clears it, the device won't immediately open -- the
current passcode entry delay must first timeout (which can be up to an
hour).
Worse, the failure count doesn’t appear to be cleared. So you get
unlocked, into the device, and set a new passcode. Then if you lock it,
and immediately mistype the passcode, you’re back where you started
-- if you had 7 failures before, then that’s # 8, and you now have to wait
15 minutes to try again.
Another bug: when you have a simple passcode, and it’s cleared while
the numeric keypad is up. When that happens, entering any random 4-
digit code will let you in, while hitting “cancel” kills the panel, but also
kills the “swipe to unlock”. So the device is locked, at a (mostly) blank
screen, and you can’t do anything at all other than power-cycle it.
