Bug Description
Ubuntu 14.10 r274
1. Start up the phone.
2. Immediately when the welcome screen appears, unlock it.
What you see: A splash screen with the word "Scopes".
What you should see: The first thing you see on unlocking the phone should not be the word "Scopes".
Some of the ways this bug could be fixed:
- rename the Dash app from "Scopes" to "Ubuntu"
- use a different splash screen mode for the Dash
- special-case the Dash so that it has no splash screen at all
------ UX Comment -------
Remove the work 'Scopes' from this splash screen and update the spinner animation with the new one.

In addition to this, once the splash is gone we will have a white screen for around 5 seconds while the icons and the header are loaded. I'm not sure if that should be reported as a separate bug.
During the first boot, we are already seeing a spinning ubuntu wheel, so putting something like another loading image while the icons are loaded sound like a bad first experience.

I saw what may be a variation of this on an update from 112 to 114 this morning. When I unlocked after the update/reboot, I did not see the "scopes" screen, but the home screen of unity8 instead - except there were no icons. After about 1-2 minutes, it flickered slightly and went dark, then went to the screen with just the word "scopes" described above, and eventually went back to unity but the icons were there this time.
