    I decided to change the password so I went to picture password option... and when I click it, it just dim the screen and nothing happened...

    Have you at least tried to reboot your device?

    Occasionally, things get goofy. The other day I turned my on, well, out of Standby, and I had the number grid for picture password but a black background. No picture. I swirled around the numbers. "Bad password" and still a black screen. I hit cancel and then my picture showed up. Who knows why??? Just happens sometimes.

    Try a restart:

    Press and HOLD both Vol Up/Down buttons. Keep holding while the screen goes fully black (ignore the screenshot), keep holding through the Black/White logo and when the Colored Logo shows up, release those buttons.

    If you have the STL100-1 variant the volume button reset method doesn't work. In that case, Press and HOLD the Power On Button until you see the LOGO as above

    The same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I'm on 10.3.0.1154 . I thought this was a 10.3 bug but guess not.

    Okay, what stage are you at now? You can use your phone? Or are you locked out of it? Is regular password working?

    My picture password on my Sprint Q10 is wacky. I can set it, and it works fine except it always locks after only 5 minutes, regardless if I set for longer when setting up password. Once I go back in to look at Picture Password settings it shows that picture password is off and I have to redo the whole setup. PITA.
