[REQ] Number lock

I have been searching for an app that has a number lock instead of a lock pattern (I hate it).
I tried Lock and lockbot but both are a bit buggy. I tried protector too but I can uninstall it easily if the phone is rooted.
Can anyone help me out?
Or something that ask password when the phone is connected via USB...
Thanks in advance.

[Q] CM7 Lockscreen Questions

I have just recently updated to CM7 and have some questions about the lock screen.
I use a PIN to unlock my phone and now on CM7 its making me slide then enter my pin. All I want to do is enter my pin and have it unlock it. Can i disable the slide? I looked in the settings but didn't see anything.
Also now for some reason whenever I lock the phone is switches to vibrate. I have no clue about this.
Any help is appreciated!
Ok so taking the PIN code off stops it from switching to vibrate when I unlock it. Still wondering about the first question.

[Q]/[REQ] Unlock directly to pattern unlock?

Hey, i was wondering if any of the devs here know of a way to make the phone go directly to the pattern unlock screen when it wakes. I really hate how enabling pattern unlock makes an extra step to unlock the phone (i.e. unlocked with the regular sense lock screen, then drawing the pattern). I can't be the only one who this bothers.
I used to have an epic 4g and when pattern unlock was enabled, the stock lockscreen would simply get disabled so there was only 1 step to unlock the phone. Does anyone know if this would be possible with a sense rom.
Also, ive tried disabling the sense lock screen all together (It then defaults to the AOSP lock), but you still need to slide to unlock, then enter the pattern.
Thanks everyone
I am looking for this as well. AntiLock app might work but I haven't tested it yet.

[Q] Prevent lock code?

Hi, is there a way to remove the pin lock option from the settings before I give my sons a phone, I'm happy for them to use a pattern lock?
incorrect pin doesn't give the same option to reset as pattern.
Thanks

you would have to edit settings.apk. you can block the settings app using another app that can password protect apps. if they have pattern unlock set up then just dont bother with pin lock?

thanks, editing the APK is beyond me, I tried an app a year or so ago, can't remember what it was but didn't work as well as I'd hoped, I was hoping there was a new, elegant solution

[Q] Cannot disable face unlock, wrong pin

When face unlock does not work on my stock ics LG Optimus L9 I just enter my pin and all is well.
I decided to remove face unlock and pin unlock and change to swipe to unlock. When I go into settings, I tap on lock screen, then on select screen lock. It asks for my pin, i enter it and hit next, it says "wrong pin"
I know it's not the wrong pin because I unlock my phone with it 20 times a day. I always use the same pin for years. It seems like a bug but it sucks because now I am stuck with face unlock.
Is there anyway around this or has anyone else experienced this problem?
thanks
Hard reset

Do a HARD RESET. It will solve your problem.
