Droid Screen Lock Security Bug Found

Android Pattern Lock Screen Lock Security Bug was found in Android 2.0.1 firmware but mostly Droid user’s will have issue with that. Screen Lock can be bypassed by calling the phone and hitting the back button, that will unlock the phone and whoever did that to Droid has access to everything! I can see jealous girlfriends do that to their Droid boyfriend.

Issue has been already addressed, here is what Google Spokesman said:

“We are aware of the issue and we’re working to deliver a fix to Motorola Droids shortly.”

But this isn’t the first time Screen Lock has been breaked, Engadget reported last year how to bypass screen lock on iPhone. Just wanted to share for those that think iPhone is perfect :)

Tested this on: T-Mobile G1, MyTouch and looks like this bug has been fixed or never existed.
