Help Sim Lock Code Input Screen

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me why the Android OS likes to give the user only 3-5 seconds to start inputting the SIM LOCK code before closing it and continuing to boot up the phone?

I find it really annoying, especially since i go through batteries like no tomorrow and have to input the code every day.

Surely the lock screen should not disappear until the user has correctly inputted the correct code or at least give the user 15 seconds to input it?

I hope this gets addressed with a firmware update as i'm currently having fun and games inputting my both my PUK code and change of SIM lock code all within a mere 5 seconds before the screen goes away..
 
I've managed to solve part of my problem by inputting my sim into my good old trusty Nokia phone which does allow a reasonable amount of time to input codes.

I'm turning off sim card lock until Google or Samsung (who ever is responsible) sorts out this crappy time out issue.

Not good enough for a smart phone to be honest, not giving the end user enough time to input their codes is not exactly smart is it?
