Hi guys , I have problem with my GSII , the pattern lock seem to be missing from the setting menu ( setting -Location and security ), I don't know may be because I installed Go Locker and may be because I messed around with the Go Locker setting ( Lock "Home"key ) option? even I uninstalled the Go Locker still the option for the pattern lock is missing from the setting, any solution ? thank you in advance .
( Sorry for my bad English )
In location and security is there the option to set up.screen lock?

No the option of pattern lock has gone from Location and Security menu( I don't know how ) have a look at the screen captures below , thank you for your reply .
Anyone have the solution for the disappearing of the pattern lock screen on the setting please help ( see my previous post ) , I've been searching for the solution but I couldn't find anything .
If you don't have any mods installed and running a custom ROM, the fastest way to get it running again would be flashing the custom ROM again.
Be sure it's not a full-wipe rom.
And perform a backup before you do anything.

is there a way to put a password on the lock screen with the latest gingeirits ...
i go through privacy and security settings .. but once i do the ring thing, it unlocks the phone and doesnt prompt me for a password ...
thoughts??
also, can smone post links to awsome themes for this giniritis version ...
OK. I installed an update to my ROM and restored apps + data to my phone and now the lock screen is stopping me from unlocking the phone. so i installed a bypass app to at least unlock my phone.
I need to either remove/reset the password so i can change it or have something to change the password.
Any help much appreciated!

Don't Matter Fixed it!
For those that have the problem get Screen Lock Bypass and clear settings/setting storage data on titanium or related. then restart and your password is reset/removed!
You'll have to redo your settings though which dosent really matter.
hi
i updated my galaxy s6 edge to 5.1.1 and full reset factory done , but after update i have a problem.
i use fingerprint sensor for lock screen , after setup fingerprint for lock screen and restart my phone , after that i dont have acces to my vpn setting and it ask me for Credential password !!!!
but when i change lock screen method to pin or password there is no problem !!!
any idea how i can solve this problem ?
The exact same thing happening to me . I end up using a backup password instead of a fingerprint as a first thing everytime i reboot the phone, it helps so far.

hi people, looking to your advice and suggestions.
I was on Android 9 Miui 10. Last night I did a dirty flash to Android 10 Miui 11. There was no issues during this process and the phone booted up fine with no loss of data.
Steps I took -
1) Disabled Magisk modules
2) Removed all screenlock and Google and MIUI accounts
3) Made a Nandroid backup before flashing
Today morning, I tried to set up screenlock on Android 10 MIUI 11. Added the pattern lock, and added a fingerprint. Strangely when I tried to add one more fingerprint (for my left index finger), it asked me to set pattern lock again. Well I set it again, and added the new fingerprint. Same thing happened when I set the face unlock. I added the pattern lock again. But, the patternlock never turned to ON status, even though fingerprint and facelock was showing ON.
When I tried to lock the screen and to test it out, I was able to unlock with swipe (with no pattern, fingerprint or face unlock required). I haven't set any smart unlock as well.. I thought perhaps a reboot will help, but now I'm stuck on a soft bootloop ( the phone boots upto to the lockscreen and reboots before I can do anything )
Is there any suggestions on what I can do ? Please advise. Thanks in advance

Fix
Managed to fix it my myself. FYI
1) Boot TWRP Recovery click Advanced> File Manager> data> system and delete 6 files (ref : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/remove-lockscreen-recovery-t3530008)
1.access_control.key
2.access_control_password_type.key
3.locksettings.db
4.locksettings.db-shm
5.locksettings.db-wal
6./data/system/users/0/settings_fingerprint.xml
Bootup was successful
2) After bootup, you might find it difficult to set the screenlock password (won't take affect). Follow this -
In a web browser (on any device), log into Gmail with the account you used when setting up your phone.
Go to https://myaccount.google.com/intro/find-your-phone
Press "Lock your phone"
Enter "abcd"
Your phone's screen is now locked. Unlock it with "abcd"
You can now change your screen lock.

Hi there,
Good that you resolved on your own.
Also, this bug can be resolved this way. Try to setup second space. If you are already setup earlier with a password then follow the other member guide until the removal of locksettings db files. Then reboot and try setup the second space.. while setting up it will request to setup the password or pattern for first space and finger prints for second space. Once done move to first space and setup the fingerprints there for first space.
Just making a note here.. so somebody can make use of it in need at desperate hours...
I have spent sometime to figure this bug in the first space but setting up second space solved the bug.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
