Help Droid RAZR HD screen lock issue

Hey guys. I have an issue with my RAZR HD screen lock. I put a screen pattern lock on my phone, but it doesn't lock half of the time. Even after the screen times out or I press the power button. When I turn on the screen it doesn't show the pattern screen all the time, it just shows an unlock button in the center that I have slide. Why isn't it showing protected pattern screen? How do I fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Under your Settings/Security, what do you have for the "Automatically Lock" period?

It will not lock just because your screen times out and goes to sleep. You have to pick a time period AFTER that for the lock to kick in.
 
Sounds like there is another app that is preventing the lock from taking effect. You can disable all your added non-stock apps and see if it makes a difference. If it works with all non-stock apps disabled, them enable them one at a time until the culprit is discovered.
