Screen Timeout \ Sceern Lock window.

Hi ALL,
I know this is Galaxy S I9003 Android Development but since we do not have saperate Section I am posting here.
I have Two issues
1. I have selected "None" for Screen lock in Settings-> Location and Security. still i see this ( <<<<<xxxxxx>>>>> ) type of screen lock some time after time out. I want to remove this. My phone is rooted and on XXKB33.
2. I usally set Screen Time out at 15 Seconds. It automatically goes to 1 Minute.. What can be the issue.? I use LockMenu Where i have set time out as 15 secs.
can anyone pls help me resolving these?
thanks

For the first issue the only way to change the lockscreen to default android lockscreen is to modify system files... look at my other post with vanilla lockscreen.....

Anyways Will try this vanilla screen lock.

Here you can not deactivate the screen lock. You can only change security settings like password, PIN or pattern lock. If you select none, you will not be asked to input any of those after sliding the screen to open it. But lock screen will still be there.
lockscreen wallpaper
hi! i'm new. i just want to ask, how do i even activate my lock screen? rephrasing that, do i even need to activate my lockscreen for samsung i9003?

The responsability of screen lock is android.policy.jar and framework-res.apk... maybe try to restore again that files... one question... have you tried app from market that enable lock screen like: screen off and lock? (I'm not sure about the correct name). Another question.... but the lock-unlock button works?

I applied from the default stock Indian fw! And yeah I did try the few apps from market called lock screen it seems to work only at times!!! :-( and no the power on/off button only turns off screen but doesn't lock!

[REQ] Ripple Lock Mod

I tried this app out, and it is really cool.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen_free
Being able to pull the thing anywhere to unlock is nice
But the nicest thing is having the ability to pull 1of4 apps into the center and it unlocks to that app(def awesome for the camera)
However...here's the issue. It's an app, that means it needs to always run(memory/battery hog) and, my AOSP Lockscreen starts first, i unlock that then the Ripple Lock comes up.
Or...pretty much any lockscreen that has the ability to unlock to a specific app would be awesome
Does anyone think they would be able to make a mod to turn RippleLock(or similar) into the default main lock screen, not an app??
ok.... this thread seems a little bit dead...
Never mind, but let me tell you that I like your idea, unfortunately I am not able to this so but it sure would be great if someone really did look into this
Here is how I got it to work.
1. Stop ripple lock.
2. Disable stock lock screen with "No Lock" from the market and reboot phone.
3. Start ripple lock.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the great lock screen
"Home-Less and Iconic"
Thanks guys! I've been looking for something like this.
VS910
RevoltRom1.4
Thanks guys, this app is really cool. Also, ripple lock 2.5.5 has a "fix double lock issue" setting. Haven't tried it yet cause I already downloaded and am using the No Lock app that K0G suggested. When I'm out of class I'll uninstall No Lock and try that function.

Agile Lock

I was trying Agile Lock i find it good but know i am having doble slider lockscreens, i have to slide (the orginal lockscreen) and then it shows agile lock, how do i remove the orginal slide lock screen?
i have Exchange server installed
It wont if you dont set any lock pattern or code.
Disable any lock pattern in settings then open agile lock from app drawer, click 'stop' then 'start'
Everything should be fine then.

i have exchange account which prevents me from disabling the lock pattern
In Agile Lock settings you can find Double Lock Issue. Try uncheck Use system security lock, then go to Fix double lock issue. 3-rd string check helped to me.

I think you should be carry out set S-OFF and rooted your phone, and if you install Rom with sense 3.0 or more, you can ignore Agile lock...Good luck!
Speaking of Agile lock. I am unable to receive incoming calls when on lock screen, I have to unlock, go to notifications and later select call to receive it..
ANy bug or am I the only one facing it
That sometimes happens to me... no clue why it does/doesnt
Does it make me a fanatic to point out that the OP having 1081 posts asks this in a new thread ?
ah no.. it just makes you stupid.
and maybe you didn't realize that message posts/counts increments. if you search your first post ever.. it will still say your current post count...
and.. why am i answering such a stupid remark from a stupid user? oh well i guess i have useless time to kill.

Magazine Unlock doesn't work after updated to Pie

After update to Android 9.0 with my P20 Pro (without factory reset). I found a problem with Magazine Unlock, it doesn't change randomized lock screen.
What should I do?
Thanks

Maybe your magazine unlock is paused. When your phone is locked try to swipe up from bottom of the display. There you will get resume/pause(||) option. Resume it. Let's us know if issue still persists.

Currently having the same problem as the OP. One moment it was working fine, and now it doesn't work at all. I have the magazine unlock setting on and ticked all the boxes and when I lock my phone it just shows the home screen wallpaper. I've checked the settings on the lock screen itself, there is a lock icon but when I press on it nothing happens. If I add my own images into the magazine unlock folder, they work fine and like the magazine unlock feature should work, but I really enjoyed seeing the random photos that would appear before. I honestly can not find a fix for this and I don't really want to factory reset my phone, so would really appreciate if someone has a work around for this.

You need to unlock your lockscreen wallpaper
Now, go to you lockscreen then swipe up from bottom
There are several settings there..
Press the locked icon
And you can change the time or another setting for your lockscreen wallpaper
So you can have your random magazine again..
Hope it helps you
I tried going through your steps DTsPro but sadly it wouldn't work. Like I said if I add my own pictures to the magazine unlock feature it works no problem and I can use the swipe up unlock/lock feature on the lock screen with those images, the moment I delete them and try to use the built in magazine unlock images, I just get a static image and I'm unable to select any of the icons on the lock screen settings however it says on wallpapers and themes that magazine unlock is selected... It is a very weird and somewhat annoying problem that I just can't seem to find a solution for, but thank you for at least trying to help
Same as me p20 I have problem as well. Magazine unlock, whatever I do it doesn't work at all. Any help plz
On lock screen swipe from bottom of screen. It will show couple of options. Don't let screen unlocked with face recognition or fingerprint. These options appears on the lock screen when you swipe from the bottom of screen on locked screen. There is a lock icon on these option, tap on it and unlock it. It will show message that screen will change everytime. Try these options with cool mind. I was not able to figure it out for weeks. But now I have and it work like charm.
simple solution as it might sound, but change your theme and keep going through the process untill it shows the pop-up msg asking you if you want to keep or discard Magazine unlock and choose to keep, Voiala it goes back again.

Question Lockscreen problem after miui 12.5 update.

Recently updated my redmi 9t with the new miui 12.5. After that i'm unable to unlock screen with fingerprint when using downloaded theme. It works if i use stock theme. Anyone knows how to somehow fix this. Your help is highly appreciated.
Hi,
I have the same problem. I didn't downloaded any theme or pictures, anything, all is in default, and still get that msg.
What is stock theme? After upgrade I got some picture on lock screen with snow and mountains.
Hi severac, stock theme is the standard theme (classic theme). I have tried to clear cache and memory for the theme app. The problem is still there.
Another problem i have is whenever i tried to change wallpaper for downloaded theme lockscreen it will change to the standard theme lockscreen.
Are you able to unlock screen with your fingerprint somehow?
After the new theme app update, unlock with fingerprint not working anymore. Even on standard theme. Uninstalling the update doesn't help either. Hope they fix this in the upcoming update.
Hmm, I managed to unlock my screen with finger. I can unlock it when screen is turned off by itself, for example, after 2 minutes. Then if I put my finger it unlock the phone. But, If I lock my screen with some app, like tap to lock, one touch to lock or similar, it doesn't unlock it with fingerprint after that.
Mine works only if the screen turned off with an app opened. Deleting and readding the finger print doesn't do anything.
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Guys, how did you get passed the lockscreen? my note 8T updated, and now I cannot get passed the lockscreen, I never set a password, only a pin and fingerscan. All it's asking for is a password.
Help. I do not want to wipe data etc
