I really find it annoying, when my other hand is busy and I need to unlock the phone I hate dragging the wallpaper to get access to the buttons. Any way to disable the wallpaper? I usually unlock my phone by clicking on the right side button, I don't need extra protection.
I know there is an app called "nolock" however it must be open for the wallpaper to be disabled.. which sucks.
Thanks
try going to settings - location and security and use change lock screen to disable.
At least for me, the hardware button is more than enough accidental turn on protection. Is there anyway to turn off slide to unlock?
When I had my Droid, I remember there were several methods available to do this; but I don't remember what any of them were called or if they are compatible. I know that GoLocker (the GO lock screen replacement) is NOT compatible, at least when installed through the Market.
Try the No Lock app from the market.
After setting up a security pin I have no slide to unlock on my device. I hit a button it asks for the pin i set i type it in and it goes straight to whatever was last on screen without asking me to slide to unlock,
hi
i have tried several applications like go locker for example but none has what i want.
maybe someone can help me:
- i want my screen to lock automatically but only after some delay (that i can customize) the lock includes the pattern.
nowadays i have to unlock with slide then put the pattern....
i want to:
- 1 slide to unlock
- if time > 3 minutes for example slide + pattern
can someone help?ยป
The method with slide to unlock is redundant and annoying. How to remove slide to unlock?
I'm in the same boat.. every time I try to turn on fingerprint unlock, I still have to slide to unlock.. I'm missing something here..
I don't get it. When you have finger print as your unlock method there is no slide to unlock. They are mutually exclusive, you can't have both.

I have experienced the Slide to Unlock screen when I have a paired bluetooth device that I have listed as trusted. I think this is what these guys are talking about, and it is annoying. I wish it would just unlock to the home screen.
I think you should upgrade to latest firmware, i never got slide to unlock screen when i use finger screen function!
Look attachment!

Slide to unlock shows when you use the smartlock feature to keep your phone unlocked. It's there to prevent you from butt dialing someone.
Go to secure lock settng > secure lock time and set it to instant.
That way every time u lock your phone it will ask for finger print and will unlock right away

This man probably has it, your phone will not go to the lockscreen when fingerprint security is checked unless you enabled trusted devices and are near one. It should in that case simply go to the home screen as it does on most devices when similar schemes are enabled but it instead switches to swipe to unlock making the whole thing not only pointless but more work then never enabling trusted devices at all.
Its either a bug or stupidity, hopefully they get it changed.
Make sure you don't have any trusted bluetooth devices set up. If you do, you'll always have to swipe whether fingerprint authentication is enabled or not.
Aha!

Ha- that actually does work as a workaround, but sorry... What I want (and think OP is after) is to just turn off the swipe.
If the phone if unlocked, show me the home screen.
I want to take the risk of the buttdial!
Use case- pick up unlocked phone, press the side button, see home screen. Not swipe to get to home screen.
Don't know if that's a feature request or a rant or just a bit of both.

I tried to use No Lock Home module for Xposed instead of built in Smart Lock. But it doesn't eliminate Swipe to Unlock either.
I had my S6 set up to just require a pattern to unlock. Worked fine for the first 6 months I owned it. But since I allowed Samsung to upgrade my software, a swipe is needed before it will allow a pattern unlock. This happened to my wife's phone too. Thanks for the ****ing annoying "upgrade" Samsung.
I'm hoping this is an easy settings fix. I've searched online and in settings without success.
I have a pattern screenlock and use smart unlock. If the phone is in an unlocked state (because of smart unlock or a recent unlock) and I open the dual screen, it still shows a lock screen that I have to swipe away. Is there any setting (other than removing a lock altogether) that would enable activity as soon as I open the dual-screen, without having to swipe away the lock screen?
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried the Smart Lock options?
You can keep it unlocked while you have certain devices connected like a smartwatch or wifi signal.
Thanks! I actually am using smart lock. The device is unlocked, but I still have to swipe the lockscreen away, although I don't have to enter my pattern. I was hoping there would be a away to simply open the cover and, if it is already smart unlocked, that it would just pick up where I left off instead of having to swipe first.
