      but, as i said, this is not a permanent fix, whenever there is a new security update, you'll face this bug again.

            Anonymous, 15 Apr 2020I also have the same problem dont know what to do You have 3 options:
            1. Easiest one, let the phone completely out of power (battery). and then, recharge it, when you turn it on, you PIN/password/pattern will be accepted as usual. But, DON'T FORGET to change your PIN/password/pattern at this moment, if you don't, the BUG will be back few hours later.
            2. If you have activated Samsung Cloud, and REMOTE UNLOCK feature, you can unlock it via samsung account website. If you have unlock it, the same as no1, you have to SET a new PIN/password/pattern as soon as possible.
            3. Now this is the hard one and unrecommended, you gotta pull the battery out, ask a technician to do it for you. And then put it back, and go back to method no1, except that you don't have to wait until its battery out of juice.

            That's all I did. There's no permanent FIX yet that i know, except that keep your storage usage under 45GB.

                  Ok, just to report here the progress, after i cleaned up the phone storage, i did the updates, so far so good, the BUG didn't show up. so i can confirm, that it's very much related to your storage being so full. so to avoid this bug, always keep your internal storage under 45GB. (at least 10GB free).

                                Anonymous, 13 Apr 2020Yes maybe the phone is not orignaldon't worry, i got the original one :) all apps have been successfully cloned to the new phone, all but the apps data, so i'm moving the apps data manually. so far the realme x2 pro phone is satisfying as expected. not as pricey as samsung's, but faster than samsung galaxy note 10.

                                  Shahbaz khan, 12 Apr 2020I never faced this problem, may be your device is faulty Yes, perhaps that is true, however many people have this kind of problem here(Indonesia), I've asked the my local Samsung Center and they agree. If you google it, you can find the problem is quite common on Samsung S8 series, this is one of it ==> eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Other-Smartphones/S8-plus-screen-lock-pin-not-recognized

                                  I think the risk of having this bug is higher if you have storage almost full most of the time. My overall storage was around 51~53GB, because I don't use microSD card, I need 2 SIM activated. I'm currently clearing the phone, as I already have my new Realme X2 Pro phone. Once I have moved everything out, I'll try to do the security updates, and let see if this problem still occurs.
