Password gets set instead of a passcode during welcome wizard

[Omer Akram]

Whenever I quickly type the passcode during setup wizard, instead of passcode, password is set as security mechanism

1. factory reset your phone
2. on the startup wizard select 4-digit passcode as security mechanism
3. when asked to confirm the passcode, quickly type it again.
4. finish setup

What happens:
Instead of a passcode the password is set and I am greeted with OSK to unlock the screen.

I tried twice with my mako and then once with my krillin and couldn't reproduce at all. How often does this happen for you? Do you do anything special at the edge tutorial part?

(When you say "factory reset" you do mean using --wipe with ubuntu-device-flash, right? If you don't pass --wipe, we don't expect the password screens of the wizard to work right.)

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Yes, I always do --wipe. I am seeing the issue ~70% of the times during my silo testing. I'll try to grab a video

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

And you don't pass --password= to u-d-f either? I'll continue to try to reproduce.

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Bam! Just got it. :)

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

I've also confirmed that you *can* reproduce by re-enabling the wizard, resetting the lock mode to swipe, and rebooting. Should make it much easier to debug rather than having to use fresh images.

For me though, regardless of method, it's about 1 in 7 to reproduce. Which is high! But still requires a bit of churning.

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Omer, despite confirming this bug, I would still be interested in a video if you have the time. Your reproduction rate is significantly higher than mine. I just ran through the wizard 10 times with no luck. So maybe your timing is different than mine or something...

[Alberto Salvia Novella (es20490446e)]

Please, do the following:

1. In the bug description, change the "OSK" acronym to its long form.
2. Set this bug status back to "confirmed".

Thank you.

[Alberto Salvia Novella (es20490446e)]

Sorry: the bug status back to "in progress".

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

@Albert, I'm confused. Why does it matter how OSK is spelled out? Did I miss a memo?

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-system-settings - 0.3+15.04.20150309~rtm-0ubuntu1

  * New rebuild forced.

  [ Michael Terry ]
  * Don't accept multiple "Finish" clicks during the last step of the
    wizard; doing so can cause password-setting to be left in an
    inconsistent state. (LP: #1414762)
