        Symbian is not an smartphone OS it's for toys now and Nokia is already dead with MeeGo (Intel stopped supporting it)

                AnonD-18378, 01 Oct 2011so what's ur comment android fans....now have u understood ... moreWow... typical fanboy bringing something irrelevant... You do realize that only AT&T's variant has this problem and that other variants (including the 10 million sold International variant) of the GS II doesn't have this problem. Plus, this is an issue to only those who uses the password lock screen on the AT&T variant which is still a minority. No other Android devices actually have this issue.

                Symbian, better? Symbian doesn't even have a password lock screen! So how is it any better? If it's really far better, you better explain why Nokia is replacing Symbian (the burning OS) for Windows Phone as their primary OS.

                        In contrast to the international version which doesn't remove the lockscreen even with a hard reset or by going through the recovery and wiping everything.
