Temporary Fix For Samsung's Galaxy S II(2) LockScreen Bug: From At & T

Samsung's revolutionary Galaxy S II phone has apparently being crippled with a weird security issue especially when associated with the AT & T.The issue is when ever you unlock the phone it enters into a lockscreen,and a mere timeout or letting the phone to just sleep will allow the device to jolt itself out of the sleep and bypass the security lockscreen where it may or maynot need the password..
                                                                      Although a permanent solution is not available right now and with both At & T N Samsung working on the issue,a temporary fix was released by At & T.By default the when you are using a security screenlock in your device,it goes into a timeout or Sleep mode.Now if the User presses the Power Button after it has entered Timeout Phase it will request the password.Whereas if the user presses the Power Button before it had entered Timeout Phase,the phone will still request a pass but its not necessarily needed to unlock it.So the temporary fix might be to Reset the time-out-screen's IMMEDIATE setting.You can do this by going to Settings --> Location & Security --> Screen Unlock Settings --> Timeout --> Immediately.
Well thats a relief for now.Now lets just wait for a permanently fix to be released in the upcoming days.
