Hi, I installed ios8 and then restored my iPhone 5. My company requires a 6 digit passcode on the lockscreen,, which is what I used to have. Upon start-up, ios8 asked me for a new passcode and presented me with the regular keyboard.

Now when I want to unlock my phone I have to use the small regular keyboard instead of the old keypad. How do I change it back?

I've been to the passcode settings screen and the simple passcode option is greyed out. My iPad was also updated to ios8 and its still using the 6 digit passcode on the numeric keypad. Why is the iPhone different?
