[Q] Stock 4.3 lock screen widgets

I see that the lock screen widgets are able to be minimized if I set my lock screen security to use only a swipe without any pattern unlock. Is it possible to have the lock screen widgets minimized when turning on the screen while using pattern unlock?

I think there is a few xposed framework modules that address this. I am just relying on memory here so I'm sorry if they dont end up helping you solve your problem

Smart Lock woes

I have a pattern screen lock set up on my device. I also have enabled my car Bluetooth as a trusted device for Smart Lock.
It obviously recognises I am in the car as when I turn on my device I get the swipe to unlock screen but this then takes me to the pattern lock screen. I thought the point of Smart Lock was that it disabled the security for those trusted devices?
Am I doing something wrong or is there a hidden setting I am missing?

I think you should keep the bluetooth on
The Bluetooth is on, which is why I get the swipe screen but it doesn't disable the pattern lock.

For security reasons, when Smart Lock is enabled, after any connection to the trusted device the first unlock has to be using the predefined unlock of the phone, and after that the Smart Lock will work as expected until the connection is lost, and then again the same procedure. if the connection is lost

fingerprint locking on apps only?

Hello.
I want to use applocker to lock apps with my fingerprint, but it requires me to register fingerprints through settings. Settings does not allow me to register fingers, as it wants me to turn on the stock lock screen. However, I'm using a third party lock screen. Is it possible to bypass this requirement and use to fingerprint locking for just apps?

There's any way to bypass lock screen password?

Phone unlocking without PIN or fingerprint

I recently updated my phone and now even though I have set up fingerprint and PIN for unlock, it's just straight-up opening without the need for the Fingerprint or PIN. The lock screen still shows the option to enter pin but one swipe will unlock the phone despite not even entering the PIN or using the fingerprint.
Face Unlock is off i.e. Smart Lock
PIN is set
Fingerprint is set

Latest update as of 09-09-2019
Update:- Turns out the update has enabled on-body detection.
Solution:- The latest update somehow turns the Smart Unlock feature by default. Just go to Settings -> Security -> Smart Unlock and disable all the options for unlocking it via Smart Lock. This will solve your problem.
