    I have noticed the same thing. The Passport sometimes takes several seconds to wake up after 2 or 3 swipes. I wonder if it is not trying to reconnect to network services during that time. I may be wrong.

    He was just wondering if other people are having the same issue. That's kind of the point of this forum and website....

    You are correct, I am being a bit harsh. But there has been a lot of threads about "problems" which in my mind are trivial. For instance I have had a stack of smartphones with touch screens and none of them has performed perfectly with regards to swiping, touches etc. etc. I sometimes have to swipe 2 or 3 times to wake the Passport up. So what. Do I view it as a problem. No. Were my hands dirty? Has my screen protector been applied properly? Have I swiped far enough or hard enough? Who knows?

    That is how I view it.

    I sometimes think that people are trying to find issues.

    Yes I have it too, sometimes up to four or five swipes. I found it is more responsive to my right hand as opposed to my left but still takes a few swipes. I also noticed today it can take 1-2 seconds to respond after swiping a couple of times to waken. The power button on top seems slow to react at times too, not that I used it much, but just to compare. Not a big issue, but an issue none the less, it does get annoying after a while. Not sure if this is/will be fixed in official 10.3.1 yet to be released, I'm on 10.3.0.908/10.3.0.1418. Anyone notice this on any of the leaks?

    I have the same problem on my Z10. Might be dirty display, dirty finger, software related or a combination. For now I can live with it.

    Not short enough for a pointless Omg really?! Answer obviously.

    By the way OP yes, I have this issue with my z10, after many swipes it won't wake up, I have to press the power button which unlocks it and bypasses the lock screen

    Solution? Do a wake up press at the top of the device. And swipe up

    You think not being able to wake your phone is a "trivial" problem? What else do you think is trivial? Perhaps...not being able to make a phone call? (Yea, so trivial!)

    Let's assume that the users hands weren't' dirty, or that there was no screen protector, or that the perfect swipe was executed, and it still....ROUTINELY....doesn't wake up. IS THAT A PROBLEM?

    Can you imagine if you pressed the power button on your TV 4 times in a row before you could get it to respond? Or flipped a light switch 4 times before the room out light up? I think some people would perceive that as a real problem.

    And sometimes they actually have them.

    Hmm, I haven't noticed the swipe to wake issue. BUT, I've noticed that sometimes when in an app I can't get into settings by swiping down from the ear piece section.

    Weird. Default OS.

    I've heard of the slow to wake issue before. It happens to mine sometimes (and that's weird I saw someone mention it works better with their right hand, I thought the same) sometimes it even gets stuck halfway waking up. I just press the power button and swipe up again. I suppose it it were a serious issue for you, you could either turn the swipe to wake off or return the phone.

    I have had the same issues. Sometimes takes 4 swipes to actually wake the screen. Sometimes I just give up and press the lock button.

    The one time I was trying to show off my Passport and right off the bat I was trying to explain BB10. It's all about the gestures and swiping I said, sure enough, took 4 swipes to actually wake the screen...wasn't exactly impressive!

    I think that it has to do with the sensitivity of the touch screen which is different from the previous device of the user. I had the same issue for the first 5-10 days of use but further on somehow never happened again.
    Swiping works fluently for me, seems that my fingers learn to swipe in the right way.

    Make sure you didn't leave the original plastic on the passport from when you got it. That plastic doesn't swipe at all. Take it off and MAGIC!

    Yes, I had the same problem, I am not sure if it was the screen protector might be the reason behind. Would love to hear if any user have the same problem without having a screen protector on.
