Have watched many videos and read many posts, but none mentions this issue.
After the KDE symbol comes up, everyone talks about a PIN screen, but that's not what I get.
I'm getting something called 'User Configuration', where it asks for Full Name, Username, and Password.
After (I think) entering those (it's very awkward because it just shows the keyboard - I'm hitting <CR> and
      then have to push the Power button to see the entries!) and using '123456' as the Password, nothing happens.
I'm sure there is a simple explanation for this - can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, everyone.
Did you ever resolve this issue? My new phone just came today and I am having the exact same issue. No idea where to even begin to try and fix it.....

Ditto. im having the exact same issue, i think its setup like its a pro version with the included keyboard and just wont accept screen rotation.

all of these problems could be avoided if they just make it where the os boots and operates, and then asks if you want a password and other nonsense.
i just want a phone, i dont do anything that requires password nonsense. just adds more things to go wrong. if it just booted to os, we could fix almost all the problems encountered.
