I guess i need some software or little more configurations so, when I turn off the phone and turn it back on i want to see the big clock, but still the phone to be locked, and to unlock it to need the PIN code.
Hope you understand me, just i need my phone locked with PIN , but to be able to see the big clock without unlocking it.
Thanks

A few weeks/months back I did some setting in my Nexus 6 that sets the screen unlock pattern whenever the phone boots.
i.e. when the phone boots, it asks you to enter you screen unlock pattern in order to boot.
Now I want to disable that so that I don't have to unlock my screen in order to boot. But I am not able to find that setting... I don't remember where it was. I looked under Security...Smart Lock...etc... can't find it. Where is that setting?
I haven't rooted or unlocked the phone. So it must be some default setting (which I am not able to find now).
In security- Change Screen Lock to None or Swipe.. This'll release your problem..
Then check in pattern lock again. There is the option available, which you mentioned..

Thanks! I should have looked at that.
This will be the option
I have a T-Mobile S6 but flashed Cleanrom for ATT. I noticed that while using the fingerprint unlock method the screen will still require swipe to unlock. In other words, I have my phone set to lock 3 minutes after the screen turns off. Normally if I turned the phone back on before the phone actually locked it would just pick up where I left off but now with the ATT rom it will ask me to swipe to unlock when I turn the screen back on before the phone actually locks. Is there any way to remove this?
That's pretty weird. My AT&T phone doesn't do that.
Did you get anywhere with resolving this? I'm running stock AT&T, not rooted, and annoyed that I unlock with fingerprint and need to also, subsequently swipe.
I found the solution to what may be the same issue you're having - though I am running the stock T-Mobile rom.
You need to turn off all the smart unlock features - trusted locations, devices, etc. For some reason, with those enabled, unlocking (often, but not always?) requires a swipe and fingerprint - but without them it works as you would want/expect.
I think this may be an attempt to give us a lock screen when the device stays unlocked, but if you unlock it with the fingerprint when it is already unlocked, it doesn't bother to even try reading your print, so it misses that you did something that couldn't be in your pocket. Very annoying.
I have my lock screen set for fingerprint. If the device is shutdown or restarted, the lockscreen asks for a fingerprint. After that if the power button is pressed to shut off and lock the screen, the next time it is turned on the lockscreen asks for just a swipe. It wont ask for a fingerpring again until the system is restarted again. Anyone else have this problem? Solutions?
You have to go into settings and set the power button to lock device. Or you can change the settings to lock device after a certain period of time.
It's under Lockscreen/Secure Lock Settings

You can also set it to not lock if it's connected to a certain device, like a Bluetooth.
This is a god sent because it's always been a pain to unlock the phone in a car after it's gone to sleep and you are streaming music from it.
Thanks! That was driving me crazy. I knew it was there, but couldn't find it.
I know what you mean! It was confusing the heck out of me in the beginning but then caught on.
How do one wish to switch back to just a simple swipe after choosing fingerprint unlock
The SWIPE option is now greyed out ??

I have read this a few times. I cant figure out what you are trying to say. What does this mean?
"the only way to reset it is to go find my phone and unlock my phone from there it resets direction lock"

Do you mean pattern unlock?
I mean direction lock you ( you ounlock your phone when you slide the phone up down left right etc, to put again pin lock you go to "samsung find my mobile" and you can reset the phone from there

Sorry I have no idea what you're talking about. Have you tried a factory reset?

So you set lock screen to "Swipe", but then when you change it to "Pin" the settings crash/force close? Then you can only fix by unlocking through the Find My Phone functionality?
If so, well I just tried switching from Swipe to Pin...no problems at all, works fine on my stock N950FD.
What model do you have? Are you rooted/using Xposed? Sounds like either some sort of app/mod is causing a conflict. If you can't narrow down the cause, then you might need to try flashing stock firmware or just do a factory reset.

Oh wow, I didn't even know Direction Lock existed! Learned something new, thanks
Well I googled...see this page:
http://www.tomsguide.com/forum/id-3182077/samsung-direction-lock-reset.html
Different device there, but same issue... Unclear if it's actually a bug or simply designed to work that way. Read through the entire link though, there is a lot of good info and a few solutions that users seem to have confirmed. I'd start there...
hello guys
my apologies for possibly a basic question, but i thought this would be the best place to ask so i hope it's ok
on the iphone, i cant remember how but when i had face unlock, i used to be able to make the phone require further security beyond the face, i think i just held the power button then locked the phone and for whatever reason, this would make it so that it needed more.
is there any quick shortcut to do the same on this phone/android? rebooting the phone requires a pin but then it blocks most alerts so isnt ideal
i hope this makes sense!
