Email and Password unlock??
For the screen?

The screen unlock is a join the dots affair, no password is needed, all you need to do is draw a symbol, then repeat it, and it saves.
So every time you activate the screen, you join the dots in the symbol you selected.

Or are you talking about something else, like the credential lock?

    Hi All,
    I have updated my device to 2.1 too, many thanks to RFB for the links and the guide!!

    An interesting thing happened though, I have used the KDZ updater, and received "C++ Runtime Error" message just after starting.
    While I was trying to understand the message I noticed that the updater is actually still running behind the message window, and my phone is already in Emergency mode. So I didn't "OK" the message (as it would have closed the application straight away), just waited, and voila, the update was successful.
    Tell me about sweating.. :))

I used LG Utilities and it got stuck at 4% like everyone...luckily I rebooted the phone and the installation continued fluently to the end. And yes...I was pretty much sweating the whole way lol.

            Yeah. v2.1 works pretty good. However I played around with the lock pattern screen and got the email and pw unlock prompt. Inputting my correct email and pw does not unlock the screen and always return "Invalid username and password." Anyone else got same problem?

                  Did you post that your contacts had gone something like this:

                  xxx-xxxx-xxxx from previous versions?

                  If so, welcome to 2.1..the westernised/americanised android platform..lol..

                  2 things you can do, either export them to SD, assigning them groups, etc, and de-hyphening them, then import them into your google account from your pc.
                  deselect phone and sim contact section on the phone, and select google contacts, on the phone.
                  then sync...that'll sync them into their correct groups without hyphens.

                  OR

                  Download "Morelocale 2", from the market, run it once, select english, GB, from the custom locale section, ok it, and voila..never ever have to think about it again.

                  For anyone else, there are a ton, and i mean a ton of locales on this programme..

                  hope this helps.
