Screen Lock?
 
Ok. I'm not sure what has changed but when my PPC-6700 locks, it no longer give me the animated screen. The one with the big numbers, where i can punch in the code with one hand. Instead now, I have to punch in my unlock code with the pop up keypad. Which is so small i have to use the stylus everytime i want to unlock my phone. This is extremely annoying. even more than the pop up sent notification thing (thank god I took care of that). Anyway, some one please help.... if there someway i can get this feature back? PLEASE HELP

dang, I'd like that too, didn't know it was an option. The stylus method sucks and I've wiped my data once which is very disturbing.

That's normal when you choose a password that isn't of type "Simple PIN" (since they have to present you the opportunity to type upper/lowercase letters and special characters.

If you want the big number method you have to change the type to "Simple PIN" and use an all numeric password. If this setting is enforced by your exchange server there's nothing you can do other than talk to your admin (or change your SIP to something like SPB Full Screen Keyboard).

I just checked and I am using "Simple Pin" and it still give me the pop up key board.

OK. I figured this out. In order to use the big number method, not only must your (phone lock) password be in "Simple Pin" but it must also be 4 Numbers. Anything more than 4 numbers and you will have to use the pop up key board.
