[Q] Unlock phone pattern without 'OK' - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, is there a tweak or a possibility to remove or bypass pressing 'OK' after typing the PIN on lockscreen?
For example like on iPhone, just typing the PIN and if it's correct voila, unlocks.
Thx in advance, cheers.

Unlock Screen

Hi Guys
Ok this may sound like a silly question but is there a way to have both the slide to unlock screen and also pin code screen?
The reason i ask is i like to have my phone protected so need the pin code but then i like some of the slide to unlock screens some people have posted and with the lack of notification led i'll hit the power button to see if i have mail or just check the time but would like to see a funky screen (i know sad)
Cheers
go into settings,location and security.there you will see "screen unlock settings".Choose whatever option you want.

Yes but if you put a pin onto your screen, the lock screen goes away and the phone is unlocked after entering the pin.
Yup just like giga502 said, if you set a pin code then the slide to unlock will be replaced
i would like to have both, could be a pain but does anyone know how to get both?
I doubt its possible to get both unless you root your phone and install custom rom.
Hey Guys
Managed to get both slide and pin screens
Downloaded WidgetLocker and this gave me the option
Cheers

I have added this option in my upcoming mod...
First you will see the glass or aosp lockscreen then the unlock screen.
But yes you need a kh3 rom with a cwm kernel to apply my mod.
Look for JKay Deluxe in theme and apps thread.

[CM10 JB] PIN lock screen question

Every time I have to enter PIN, then click OK to log in. It would be nice if the system logs me in without me clicking the OK button, like in iPhone. It is not a big deal, but it would be nice to have it.
Thanks for the hard work,
Jeffrey
NVM, I just found out all I need to do is to check Quick Unlock option in the Lock Screen section.

I just thanked you for this one, since you can't thank your own posts on XDA. Also, very classy to leave your post up, along with the solution, so that others can find it via the search function. Welcome!

[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

[HELP] Lock Device Does Not Follow the Settings

Hi Guys,
I need your help, I configured the phone to be locked after 5 minutes (Power button lock is disable) and for some reason did not follow this settings, sometimes just lock in 1 minute or so..., I dont have any security app installed, I use the stock ROM.
Smart Lock is only activated to detect when I carry on the phone.
Any idea??
Thanks in advance!!! and cheers from Argentina!!

Hi Alex, Seems that the smart lock is not so smart!!!!.
If you disable the Smart Lock function, the lock timer works ok!!!!!, That sucks!!! from my POV.
Thanks to reply

Applock and fingerprint

Hey there,
I have to questions...
Can anybody confirm that's not possible to lock the messages/sms
App from Huawei with the app lock feature via fingerprint?
Does anybody know an application where u can set your fingerprint for a standard
Password?
Thanks for help
You can use fingerprint lock for all apps.
Go to phone manager>swipe to second page>more>App lock
where you will get prompt to associate lock with fingerprint.
Also note the dialer, contact, and sms is one single app. So you have to lock the ""Huawei contacts" app.
never new about applock....thanks
Also is there a way that we can set fingerprint for unlock the phone and a pattern as an alternative choice? Because as an alternative unlocking choice is only a password or PIN

I'm really interested on that.
Hope that now that the source of the kernel has been rolled out somebody will find a way to do it
For me even the normal lock screen without any password + fingerprint would be great.
what is "phone manager" ? i'm using the french langage. thanks.
Phone manager is one of the pre installed huawei tools, the icon is like a sheild..
