I find that I can get into the phone w/o a finger print, or password, if in a smart location, or hooked to a device setup in Smart Lock.
But I still have to swipe the unlocked lock screen away. Is there no way to turn that off? Note: I did find a place to turn it off...but it turned off security altogether, and even deleted my finger prints.
Am I missing something?

Yeah, it's great if enough light, or holding the phone close. That's not always the case.
I use KinScreen, and can unlock with a wave over the proximity sensor, and if holding the phone > 10° the screen will just stay on. Put it down, and goes off in 15 seconds.
But the lock screen being there when unlocked is quite annoying. I don't think that was a problem on the Mate 9. And it just doesn't even make any sense.
Oh well, such is life with phones

The damn sensor is so sensitive, and with my otterbox case, everytime I am on a phone call the screen goes black and I have to hold it away from my head just perfectly and very still to get the screen to come on so I can end a call/look something up/use the dialpad for voicemail, etc etc.
Is there a way to shut the sensor off so the screen just stays on or will at least do a normal 30 seconds timeout and re-wake when I click the volume button? I dont talk enough for it to kill battery but the sensor is really, really annoying.
You can edit the file /system/build.prop
Search the line: mot.proximity.delay= VALUE
Change the value to an higher value.

Thats no screen lock.. that function is for locking the gs when its not connected with phone
Do not disturb mode works well, but pressing the home button will wake it up. Of course you wouldn't get vib notifications either.
Get rid of the baby.
Any news?
My Redmi Note 3 Kate have no screen lock or password configured.
Im using global beta 8.4.19; magisk, twrp.
Its okay for me FP turn on the screen, didnt know it can work like that.
I didnt set anything and I cant find anything to turn off that, I mean, just touching the FP circle, it turns on the screen with any finger or skin contact.
How can I turn off that?
Hi. Just wondering if it has tap to wake or if placing your finger on the scanner will wake the device? Thanks
I am curious about this as well
from what I've seen on videos tapping on screen on the wrong spot would illuminate a purple fingerprint where you should put your finger, placing it again on top of that figure would unlock, an you have to actually press firmly not just slight touch as external FP sensors. If you press in the right spot at the first try it unlocks with only just that one single press. I'm hoping it is accurate enough so after we develop some muscle memory it unlocks at the first press 9/10 times.
I wished it had double tap anywhere to wake up/see lock screen/start face id though
Can confirm, tapping only shows where the fingerprint reader is. If you just straight put your finger on it the phone will unlock.
That is so good though..... No need to use power button. Plus if you use smart lock...i assume if your in your home or safe area.... You can avoid even using the fingerprint?

To be honest Mate 20 was silent about smart lock for now. It didn't auto suggest smart lock for any of BT devices I paired or the home Wi-Fi. Maybe I have to enable it manually. Weird the LG V20 I am coming from tried to shove that in my face on all ocassions.
... I did some digging, looks like smart lock for unlocking is not present (Smart Lock itself is on the phone).
I'm used to the Huawei fingerprint sensor that scans and turns the device on at the same time.
On Samsung it seems if have to double tap oder press the on button before I can unlock it with my fingerprint. Is there a way to set it up to unlock and wakeup with the fingerprint at the same time?

You can't unlock and power on device using only fingerprint scanner because tab s6 has optical scanner.To use it, the screen must be on and backlit.
The Huawai P30 Pro manages that just fine with the same hardware.
You can double tab on screen and then use the finger sensor

Can you read? That's what I said in my initial post, that's to unnecessary tabs to many.
I agree, double tap, then fingerprint is to many when I'm not using a case that has auto-wakeup capability.
Unfortunately, I can only suggest another alternative since the fingerprint sensor isn't active with the screen off. When I don't have an auto-wakeup case on the Tab S6, I pick up the tablet and my finger hits the S-Pen's button on the back which makes the S6 wakeup. So, a quick press of the S-Pen button, or removal of the S-Pen itself is easier than using the power button for me when I don't have an auto-wakeup case on it.

Yea thats more convenient than the double tab when holding it in my hand, actually I wondered yesterday why the device sometimes turns on on its own, but I must have just moved the pen slightly while moving it.
The December 2019 update will allow you to do just what the Huawei can do, now you no longer have to double tap the screen or press the power button just place finger on the in screen fingerprint sensor and it will wake up and unlock.
