Hi Guys,
I'm pretty new to EMUI but I got this anoying thing. When I am using WhatsappWeb for example and I get several notifications, my phone unlocks itself and goes to the homescreen without any need to swipe on the lockscreen. This also occures when I lock and directly unlock it over the buttons (home or power), it just jump over the lockscreen like I would have swiped.
It is probably configuration based, something like "10 seconds after locking -> quick unlock" or something but I havent found out yet.
I want to swipe everytime to unlock the lockscreen and for sure notifications shouldnt be able unlock the phone.
I dont have pattern/PIN/password lock or fingerprint enabled.
Thanks
For this, you could use faceunlock + pin or faceunlock + scheme.
Whith faceunlock, there is an option to unlock only after you slide...

First of all :
I searched about this problem and found nothing. I wouldn't post here if I could have found a solution by myself.
Hello,
I'm using NeutrinoGT 2.2 ROM and I would like to use WidgetLocker and the fingerprint scanner. Here is what I would like to get :
1 - Press Power or Volume keys to wake up the phone. WidgetLocker appears.
2 - Swipe my finger.
3 - Phone unlock.
But here is what I have :
1 - Press Power or Volume keys to wake up the phone. WidgetLocker appears.
2 - Swipe finger : Haptic feedback.
3 - Widgetlocker stay on the screen. I must slide the tab to unlock my phone.
OR
1 - Press Power or Volume keys to wake up the phone. WidgetLocker appears.
2 - Slide the tab.
3 - CM7 lockscreen appear.
4 - Swipe my finger. Haptic feedback. Phone unlocked.
I also checked CM settings/lockscreen/disable Lockscreen. If not, I have to slide one more tab each time I unlock the phone (CM7's tab)
I'm using lastest WidgetLocker from market.
What should I do ? Where am I wrong ?
Thanks in advance !
why would you use another locker on top of 2 lockers already in the phone?i am also using neutrino and for me,i don't have the widget locker
without it,my phone is like this(no settings yet):
1.press power/unlock button or volume keys
2.cm7 slide to unlock
3.finger scanner slide finger
4.unlock
after turning off the cm7->lockscreen->unlock option->skip on security,it goes like this:
1.press power/unlock button or volume keys
2.cm7 slide finger to unlock
3.unlock
imho,you should just uninstall the widget locker
I know, but I would like to have a customized lockscreen with music controls, weather, etc.
And that's not possible with CM7 stock lockscreen.
well,i think you know how to remove cm7's slide to unlock.if not,i did post it before.
i don't know what's so special about widget unlocker since never use it before.but if you want the music,you can use winamp and poweramp.though don't know the weather widget
well,this is my suggestion.skip the finger scanner all together if possible.it's a nuisance actually(though i've gotten used to it)just use the widget locker's unlock.the widget locker is made for ever normal phone and the only phone that have a finger scanner is only the atrix.so the company won't make an exception to make a finger scanner JUST FOR THE ATRIX.so your options are:
1.go through at least 2 lockscreen(widget locker+fingerprint)
2.skip the fingerprint(get all the widget locker goodness)
3.skip widget locker(get a more secure unlocker:finger print scanner)
My problem is that WidgetLocker doesn't work with the fingerprint scanner, although it should work. It is stated here.
WidgetLocker should disappear when I swipe my finger. But it does not.
I know this is possible, this guy succeeded.
I'm not interested in PowerAMP or other apps. I just want to use WidgetLocker because it is a really great app.
hmm,well this i cannot comment.why don't you just pm the guy who actually stumbled upon it.he did say it was because of the update.sorry,can't help anymore.
imo,it's more of the app update related kind of problem and can't be solved by normal enable/disable options.just my opinion.
good luck on finding the solution
edit:re-read the post and seemed like it was almost luck-related solution.also,the last post sort of stated the possible solution.also do note the date.it's july last year so it does not necessarily work now as some updates could have screwed up your chance to get it working.again just my opinion
re-edit again: pm the guy that did it
Thanks graphidz

I'm so new with CM, didn't have a chance to explore a newly flashed Neutrino yet, but your post skip me the hassle.
Can Neutrino's CM7 have this option:
to unlock screen, you have to swipe finger OR enter PIN.
On the lockscreen, there's a button to directing you alternative way to unlock (by entering correct PIN).
The current Gingerbread support this ( I don't know about stock, I used to have PieCrust 1.6)

Hi, i want to use a face unlock that works this way:
After pressing the power button, i must slide to the wanted direction (unlock, sound off, phone,camera). After that, the phone must get the image of the user face to unlock and give the option to unlock by pattern (in case there is no light,etc.) and then it goes to the direction.
I'm using the ICS face unlock which is just like this, but it doesn't have the option to imediately unlock by pattern and sometimes the screen wher eshould be the front camera image just stay blank and it goes to the pattern...
I downloaded an app called Facelock for apps, butit recomneds that the user disable the phone screenlock andthis way i wonthave the slide option.
Anybody have a suggestion??
Please, the ICS facelock isn't working all the time...
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've got cyanogenmod 12.1 with android 5.1.2. Normally I use a PIN to unlock my phone but when I'm at home I'd like to just use my face. This doesn't work because I can't get the option for faceunlock.
In Settings -> Lock screen -> Smart lock, trusted faces is on
but in 'choose lock screen', it's not there
and 'Smart lock (Google)' is enabled
Questions:
How do I get faceunlock to work?
How can I use a PIN, except when I'm at home when I want to use faceunlock? I tried setting up trusted places but it didn't work.

Face unlock is a part of smart lock. Since it's not as secure as pin or password Face unlock (and other unlock methods like trusted place) should be used with a pin or password.
If face unlock is switched on under smart lock and configured. That's mean it's working. To confirm it's working lock with the power button and unlock. Then at the bottom instead of a padlock symbol you will see a small face icon. That means the camera is on and searching for your face.

Smart unlock methods stops working if u lock your phone using 3rd party apps. Instead of the lock button.

You're linked to instructions didn't work.
Link worked for me. As explained face lock is now an additional unlock method, you need set a primary one first (pin, pattern, password). Then you can select to use trusted face. I have a pattern lock but if the phone recognises my face when I wake it I can just slide to unlock without enter pattern as it recognises me.
Hello,
as the topic says - is there any way to get rid of this b******t?
on MM, after pressing power button i was already on my pattern screen, so i had to just draw it to unlock. Now at nougat, even tho i got pattern set, before pattern i still have swipe to unlock screen...no, i do not want fingerprint scanner. i want pattern. and i want a single lockscreen, without swipe to unlock. and no, i dont want 3rd party app for that.
just. a. simple. thing. that. worked. fine. on. mm
damn you lg/ google?
