Stock lock screen vanished. Weird.

[Cnilles]

Hi everyone. Newbie to the forums here. I searched for this but came up empty handed:

Just last night, my lock screen (standard lock screen, no weird app or anything) vanished. When I press the power button, the screen turns off, but when I press it again, it turns back on directly to the home screen. No more lock screen. I can also do this by pressing the trackball but not the 'call' button.

At first though this was great, but I've pocket dialed 2 people already.
I tinkered around in the settings but didn't find anything. Maybe I've overlooked the obvious.

Thank you all for your help!

Hi cnilles,
I had this exact problem with my Eris a couple of weeks ago. As far as I know, there is no setting to cause the lockscreen to "vanish". I simply changed my lockscreen background and it was back to normal

Thanks for the tip! However, I'm still on the fence about changing it back. Maybe a few more butt dials will force me to change...
