I spent some time trying to find how to disable the slide unlockscreen, and just leave the pattern unlockscreen, not both, since is really annoying that in order to have any kind of unlockscreen more secure to protect the phone and your privacy, you need first to slide unlock it and then use any other unlock, in my case I'd like the pattern unlock. Sorry for the long story. I couldn't find any asnwer to this matter, and in my research I only found really old threats talking about this and none of them getting to an answer. Is there any way of doing this by now?
Thanks for your help.
No one knows about this...? ?.? :S
It is realy anoying and I am trying to found some solutions or workarounds but without much of a success...
Please pm me if you have found something other than No lock and mylock and screenmod widget and keyguard disabler.

hi
just found a great app called goodwin. its a very nice app launcher... however i camt manage to disable the built in slide to unlock, so is there another guy using it here? is there a way to disable it?
i use it too, I don't know if there's a way to disable it.
don't you find it useful?
well, yea i do, but i like S2U2 much better, and it always returns to launcher even if i just ran another program
I think the only way to know if there's a disable is to ask the makers of goodwin i think it's vito technology
unlock goodwin
its urgent...
does anyone know how to disable lock of goodwin.
Hi there,
I was wondering If anyone out there knows of an apps to locks the phone. Im new on this and what I'm looking for is something to replace the unlock swipe screen that came with the phone. I want something like a numeric keypad as a lock / unlock application.

thanks
Do you want a different option for a pattern lock?
I searched and didn't find anything. My brother has a numeric lock for his Nexus, but that's a CM feature.
I don't think they're out yet. If you find one in the market chances they won't work because of TouchWiz and you would have to be rooted.
Thanks for your quick response to my question.I am kind of new on this and yes what I want is a numeric keypad instead of a pattern.
once again thank you !!
Hey guys,
New to the android world n I'm trying to get the hang of it so pls bear with me and my silly questions. Hopefully some of you may be able to help me with this question.
So as the title goes, I'm trying to remove the stock lockscreen slider since it seems to be kind of inaccurate everytime I slide to unlock. Sometimes it hits immediately but most if the time requires 2 tries.
I wish to replace it with something better but I don't know yet where to get the apk for it.
The phones rooted already and I am using sdx stock app remover. I am trying to figure out which apk I need to remove to disable the lockscreen. Does anybody know the name of the necessary apk file?
On top of that can I replace the deleted apk with a custom lockscreen? If possible, where can I find good ones.
I hope someone will be kind enough to help me. I really don't like the slider bar on the motoblur.
Thanks,
Aqua

I wouldn't mess with it until we get an sbf, but until then you can get a lock screen replacement from the market, there's lots of them like GOTO Lockscreen, Lock 2.0, FlyScreen, Widget Locker Lockscreen and many more Hope this helps
Cool! Thnx man. That helps a lot. I've been looking for an app to do so but never could find a good answer. I won't play around with the core files till things are clear. Thnx again.

Ehmm yea but that disables the security feature like the pin or pattern or Biometrics. What I want to disable is the screen lock slider.

get 'no lock' from the market
I'm with you on this, I would like to get rid of the stock slider and still keep my pin/pattern lock. I use widget locker so of course I have redundant screen locks whenever the security lock kicks in. 'no lock' on the market removes the security lock as well.

In my search for no lock, I ran across a few apps on the market that did this as well. Don't remember which ones, but if you search on 'no lock' a few of the apps that come up do exactly what you're looking for - you just have to put in the time and go through them...
The stock motorola slider and the PIN/Password security are all the same screen and cannot be interacted with separately in any standard manner. I'm looking into alternative ways of doing this, but they're very complicated even with root. Pattern is less strictly tied to slider, and already works better in 2.0 with WL 2.0.1 improving it more, but motorolas slider in front of the pattern is very difficult to deal with too.
Me personally I love using my fingerprint locker instead of the slider, it's quicker and more efficient. Just a quick heads up
I'd love using it too if it doesn't keep missing my fingerprint. Sometimes it could take up to 3 or 4 times to unlock. Don't know why.
So Im now using widget locker. Awesome app.

Hi, I'm new to the AOKP rom. I was using CM10 and I thought I'd give AOKP a try as it's a smaller rom and seems to have a lot of other functions. But one function I don't seem to be able to find is to have lock screen widgets before unlocking the phone. I.e. A swipe and then type in your pin or draw your pattern etc. to unlock. It was an option available in CM10 I found it quite useful because it was quicker to get to the Camera etc. I have looked through the settings and can't find it. I've looked on quite a few forums and haven't found anything to help this. I have searched the forums and couldn't find anything but maybe I used the wrong words or something so I'm sorry if this has already been asked. Can somebody help?
Thanks JYC
me too!
I too am also having an issue finding this option (both swipe & pin lock security)
Any help in the right direction would be appreciated, even if it's not possible!
Ps I just moved over to Build 5 from Build 4

I have same issue. I can't figure out how to use pattern swipe with the lock. If I use swipe then I get no security pattern.
Hi. When I received the phone, out of the box security was not enabled and I was able to unlock the screen only by sliding the pad lock UP on the lock screen.
This worked well for me as I could read all notifications while locked, without unlocking the phone.
I then tried out the other security methods including Pattern. Didn't like it and wanted to go back to slide to unlock.
Under Security there is not a Slide to Unlock option.
Now, if I leave it as No Security, anything unlocks the screen, even a tap.
How do I get the original pad lock Slide to Unlock feature back?
A hard reset?
Sorry if this has been answered before, I did a quick search and didn't find a thread.
Thanks.
Set it to wallpaper lockscreen. Personally I use productivity so my messages go on lockscreen
Btw option is under settings / personalization / lockscreen type

Same Issue
Hello I am currently having the same issue with my lock screen. I hadn't even realized that switching the lock screen type was the reason, but it makes sense. Did you find a way to fix it? The above poster's method did not work for me.
Thanks for putting this problem in words!
So it looks like this is an issue that happens whenever you have an accessibility setting enabled as described here. This goes for any accessibility settings... Can someone confirm if this still happens with other Sense ROMs or if this only happens with stock?
