i had my tablet (ASUS TF201) on face recognition mode with a backup of a drawn pattern and my friend decided to keep getting it wrong and now it asks me to log into my google account, i know my google credentials are correct. but my Wifi isnt switched on, is there any way i can enable wifi or bypass the google verication and put in my pattern without restoring?
note: ive got the device rooted and im pretty sure the debug mode is enabled in my develper settings.
any help would be appreciated.
cheers..

Dear m8's,
I did not find any answers to this.. But found that I'm not the only one with this question.
Is there a way to keep "Use Secure Credentials" activated after a reboot?
Or is there a way to automaticly reactivate it after reboot without beeing prompted for the password?
When I start my phone i'm asked for a password because i set it to behave like that. I dont see a reason why the certificate store (where my 802.1x Certificate is stored) has to ask me for a password again.
Any solutions or ideas?
Regards Aspi
That's also what I'd like to know.
I remember with HTC offical ROM, it's automatically enabled on each reboot.

I've wanted to know the answer to this for a long time..
I'm wondering can we get something happening by using anycut and LaunchAfterBoot apps? I'm not good enough with anycut to be able to figure out of the manual method would be powerful enough to tap into that setting.

I have found a couple of market apps...
Keystore Unlocker - automatically unlocks secure credential storage for you on each boot (root required).
Keystore Notifier - forces credential storage to prompt for password automatically when a wireless network which requires it is in range (for if you want to keep it secure or if your device is not rooted).
Upon reboot this setting is always set to unchecked, so that app will come in handy. Any ideas on where in the filesystem I can find info on the stats of "use secured credentials" ?

I can log on to my samsung account online, but when I enter the same password on my galaxy to activate the tracking and erasing data function, it's saying "error processing failed". I've tried to reset phone to delete account and create new one, but just before restart it's asking me for password to samsung account, which doesn't accept. Any ideas
Think everyone is having the same problem.
Same for me
I thought I was the one, there must be solution or it's kind of bug which will be fixed in next update?
I did have the same issue, logged in online ok, couldn't get past password stage on the phone, I did 2 things, restarted the phone and entered p
Samsung password on the phone with wifi turned off, (it had bern on when it failed).
Not sure what solved it but it worked. And now the security settings are activated. Hope this helps

I originally created the account on the phone; never had a problem logging in to it.
What I did find though, having set up the remote access / wipe stuff, was that software update (which also uses your "Samsung account", was checking for stuff every hour or so; murdering the battery!
What I did, I switched wi fi on, because I had it on when I was setting samsung account on mobile and worked! It accepted password, so I reset device, activated security settings, but still can not access via samsung dive.

Same here, I set up my account through the phone and that was fine. However I'm not recognised by the samsungdive website.
Perhaps the link between phone and website is not working yet?
Mines an old account just logged in first time on this phone as normal .

Works normally for me, no issues.
Is it because when I open Kies on my PC my it can't read the firmware version?
Anyone else who gets this error message can you check?
Guys I've reverted back to the UK firmware and everything has started working now.
I was using the German KDD FW.
+1.
I enabled with my usual username and password and setup account on the phone.
Phone wouldn't recognise that same password for the SMS notification setup.
Went to samsungdive, that site wouldn't recognise it either.
I did a password recovery on that site (same password), and then samsungdive would let me use that password okay.
However, that password that I now know definitely is correct still doesn't work on the phone.
completely stock phone.
Rebooting now to see if that helps, but not that hopeful. :/
Edit : nope didn't work. now it's stuck on and can't even de-select that protection because it says the password is wrong. I think we've found our first big bug!

actually not a new issue. Fixed:
http://www.amitbhawani.com/blog/setup-mobile-tracker-samsung-galaxy-s/
Site is correct that we should've entered a numeric password? I used swype and it just said enter 8 characters, and didn't make keyboard numeric. It accepts alpha when new password, but log in won't accept anything that isn't numeric

Did you manage change this password? This screen shot from link is from first Galaxy, I can't find any option on mine to change it.

You can change the password from the actual Samsung Dive website. Just click on about me. Once you have logged in you are then able to change the password which also changes it on the phone.
I've changed password on samsung dive website to alpha and still nothing
I thought it had to be a numeric password? That is what I changed mine to and it worked with no problems.

Turns out the problem for me was Chrome. The samsungdive site doesn't work in chrome although it's fine in firefox.
Ok, I managed to log on to website and I have all options. I've used the same alpha numeric password, so don't understand why it hasn't worked before.
However it doesn't show my mobile number even if it's entered in my details.
Any ideas?
Hello,
I run my own website over ssl. I haven't bought a trusted certificate, but have generated my own root cert. From this one I have generated various other certificates for my servers and clients.
When I install those certificates on my stock Galaxy Nexus or my CM9 Touchpad, ICS tell me that I must set a pin/pw/pattern to unlock my device. It seems there isn't anyway to store certificates without enabling one of these unlock method.
Once the certificates are installed there is no way to reenable slide to unlock without removing the certificates from the device.
I don't want that. I have generated my own certificates and I have full control on them at the server side. If my device get lost or stollen, I just need to revoke them, and I can do this easily. So this type of security is useless for me.
I would like to be able to use slide to unlock or even "no lock screen" while keeping my certificates installed on my device.
Does someone knows a way to do that. Or give me some advices about where to search ?
Thanks for reading !
I have searched everywhere and didn't found any information about this.
Does someone know where the default security policies are stored ? are they stored as plain text ? are they signed ?
Same issue here dude:
No device administrators but still can't disable pattern lock screen
[MOD] [REQUEST] Avoid slider unlock on 4.0 with credentials
I found that using tasker and secure settings, I can disable pattern unlock even if I have certificates installed. The only problem is that the mod can't be permanent. After a few hours with pattern disabled. Android will ask you an unknown password to access your certificates. Reenabling pattern unlock via secure settings solves the problem for a few more hours ...

Well, I suppose it has some sense. Having a custom certificate means restricted access for a reason, and is also reasonable to ask for minimum credentials to the one that is using such device. You wouldn't leave the keys of the office of your work hanging outside in the door would you?
I keep the keys in my pocket, like my phone. No need to put them in a locked case. It would be annoying to have to find the key to open the case so I can get access to the key that would open the door ...
There's an app that disables your lock screen on the market.

Could you post the name or link please?
No Lock Screen.
There's one on there that you install using your computer, and it downloads to your phone and disables the lock screen. It's mainly for a forgotten password though.
I'm thinking that no lock screen is what you need.
That completely removes it though.
I suggest installing MagicLocker to replace your lock screen entirely.

That kind of applications don't work like supposed when Device Administrators are installed. Just after that custom unlock takes you anyway to the pattern or password. Try it.
This worked for me I agree with you: there's no reason that I can not have my phone without lockscreen protection just to sign into my school's wifi network.
http://anigan.wordpress.com/2013/04...password-with-vpn-enabled-stored-credentials/
PS: Diggin those thanks if this works for you
Just an addendum to toggling pattern lock on and off using root, when you disable pattern lock, the phone will revert to whatever the last lock method was. If it was "None" the phone will turn straight onto the homescreen. If it was "Slide" you'll see the side to unlock keyguard.
If you want to change this, go into Settings > Security > Screen lock > Slide then repeat but choose Settings > Security > Screen lock > Pattern. This effectively sets the 2 lock types the phone will toggle between.

Hi all,
Anyone familiar with google Android wifi settings. I used to have a nexus one where I saved all my wifi passwords for the wireless router at work, home etc. When I got a Samsung tablet with android these settings were automatically remembered and I didnt have to put in the passwords for all my routers on my tablet. It did the same for my s3 however since a hard reset of the s3 I find I now always have to enter wifi passwords which it should remember because my other devices already stored their information. I tried backup and restore settings in the s3 with no luck.
Cheers
Fei

Usually, if you allow Google to do it, it will back them up online (somewhere). Once you add your account, e.g. after a hard reset, it will update your device, at least that is how it works for me and I do regular mega wipes.

When you go through the setup wizard, are the backup and restore google tick boxes selected?

Can't say 100% but I believe so because they wouldn't had been checked in backup and restore. Okus I would have spotted it on installation and checked them. Must just be my crappy phone its been nothing but problems for me.
Tried using one of your other devices resynching your Google account then doing the same on the s3?

Anyone else having an issue with the Trusted Places portion of smart lock not working on their S9+?
It's set up with my home address, location accuracy is set to High, and any mapping app shows my proper location, but I'm still always prompted for my pattern or fingerprint when wanting to unlock the phone.

try restarting phone, reboot, then unlock with pin and that's it, it just unlocks after that

An anonymous user asked us to post the following:
I finally found this after digging through all of these threads after my upgrade from s7 Edge to s9+. It's called "Pin Window." Settings>Lock Screen and Security>Other Security Settings>Pin Windows. Be sure to enable "Ask for Pin before unpinning" to get the feature where you can pin one app to the screen and require authentication(pin #, fingerprint, etc.) for that app to be exited. Happy Galaxying and hope this helps everyone who's been looking for it!
