I had nicely set jkay aosp lock screen, untill once I decided to protect my phone from little son, and set the pattern. When the danger was gone, I went to settings and disabled pattern, but the lock with dots for pattern left alone, how would I reset/remove/disable pattern lock completely?

Never mind I found solution. To disable lock pattern you need to go to the same menu as to enable it, insert your pattern there and choose none as a lock.

I hope I am not double posting somewhere, but I recently enabled the pattern lock but it seems as though the swipe lock is still activated. I can't seem to find an option to turn it off. It is rather annoying to have to unlock the phone twice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is your phone stock? Mine is stock and when I went from swipe to pattern, it automatically canceled the finger swipe option. My only guess would be to try to turn all security locks off, then just enable the one you want.
Go back to security settings, it will ask you to swipe or enter your code, after you do that you should be at the settings screen and the top option is "none". That should turn all the security locks off for you.

Thank you for the response. A few things. The phone is stock. When I go from disabling the "security lock" to enabling it, the swipe lock is still there.
Any more help or things to try would be greatly appreciated.
I don't know then. If rebooting doesn't fix it, the phone might need the factory reset which I don't know exactly how to do. You can do a search for it. I would probably take it back to att and get an exchange since your still in the first 30 days and get a new one.

I don't think he means the finger print swipe lock. If I have the pattern lock on my atrix, after I unlock it, I still have the standard swipe right to unlock the phone.
Edit: sorry, happens the other way. Swipe right, then goes to pattern unlock.

Correct, when i enable the pattern lock, i still have to use the swipe lock to unlock then phone and then unlock the pattern lock to use to phone. This is rather quite annoying.
Ahh thanks for clearing that. Totally misunderstood that, yeah mine works as you guys described. Hopefully they will change that with a patch.

Never really notice this until now.
Basically once i set a PIN code, everytime i wake up the phone it immediately goes into this PIN code screen instead of the lockscreen where you swipe right to unlock then lets you enter the PIN code.
Is this how it's suppose to work for the SGS2?
Apologies if this has been asked before.
That's a bug, but its there. No worries.

go into settings-location and security.there you will see "screen unlock settings".Choose whatever option you want but if you only want the swype screen option to unlock then select "none".
Ahhh ok ... hopefully it can be fixed soon by Samsung or Google!
I miss my lockscreen with the date and time info without unlocking but yet able to pin protect my phone, coming from dell streak.
Thanks all for the replies!
How can I disable the first lockscreen? by this I mean, if I use pin or pattern or password lock, they appear after the first lock screen with the slide to open. I would like when I bring the phone from standby to go straight to the unlock (pin or password) screen rather then first screen which I need to slide to open then the locked screen where I need to input pin or password.

Its been discussed many times that its not possible with default stock Sony firmware. There are couple of threads lying around as well.

Good to know I am alone. Mind you I have not seen it.
I've changed my lockscreen multiple times, and it always defaults back to the key/slide one..
Anyone else encounter this problem?
No I have changed mine to face and pattern and it hasn't messed up so far

Mine doesn't always default back to this one - although I've noticed quite frequently (often while charging) that instead of getting "locked" and required PIN access, often it will just require a simple slide to lock..
Slightly different issue here. I use pattern unlock. Sometimes when I tap the power button to wake the device the home screen will appear instead of the pattern lock screen. When I tap a shortcut to do something, the pattern lock screen will appear.

Go to your System settings>Security - then ensure that 'automatically lock' is set to immediately and 'Power button locks instantly' is checked!
Using BarBum, love it, will upgrade. This is what's up: been using smart lock for a while, love it. Originally, when the conditions were met, when I turned on the screen, I had the lock icon in the center I could tap to enable the unlock screen (pattern in my case), and I would swipe to unlock. If I used the power button to turn it off, instead of tapping off, it would be at the unlock screen on powering back on (yes, the option is enabled).
Now, I see the swipe to unlock screen for a second, then bam, home screen, no chance (unless really quick) to tap the lock icon. Power button isn't locking anymore either (option is still set).
Is this a change on Google's part I can't change back from? I haven't updated my rom (yet) just play store / system updates (not ota).
Any ideas? Thanks!
