Hey guys!
I'm wondering on how to remove the TouchWiz lockscreen because I'm about to use Lockbot wich act buggy with TW Lockscreen, it shows the TW Lockscreen before switching over to Lockbot.
Is there an APK somewhere i can remove to get rid of TouchWiz lockscreen (the one with the puzzle sliding etc.) ?
Thanks in advance masters!
Im in a similar predicament, i actually am using a passcode right now so it doesnt look like touchwiz

Thank you for your reply, the problem is I cannot use Lockbot now because the TW Lockesreen messes it up. Also on Exlair (Android 2.1) it is not possible to set up a passcode, FroYo is needed for that plus this won't fix my Lockbot issue either. I alreafy did some diging in the APK folders but couldn't really sort it out. You are on FroYo I believe? It is possible to set a SIM pincode but that doesnt help aswell.
PEACE!
The free app NoLock will remove your lockscreen entirely, if you press power/home to wake your phone it will immediately be unlocked. There are several apps on the market to replace your lockscreen with a different style but in my experience these aren't completely satisfying - sometimes the original lockscreen appears for a splitsecond, other times they're just not as responsive and may take a second longer for you to unlock the phone.
Regardless, just try searching the market for 'lockscreen' and see what you find. WidgetLocker is pretty good but not free.
Indeed I am on Froyo, I wasn't aware it isn't available on eclair. Well, if anyone else finds further development besides market apps that seem to slightly lag please help out!

This is exacly my problem, LockBot is one of these tools, it shows the default TW Lockscreen for a second before switching to LockBot Lockscreen, this is exacly why i want the TW Lockscreen removed
Oh and thanks for thinking with me
Download SGS INFO on the forum here install and run the app selecting set powerbutton action. Select the tickbox and this will permantly disable the lock screen until you select otherwise.
The beauty if this is that it doesnt use a 3rd party app to do this just provides a shortcut to hidden options within the SGS.
Hope this helps.

You can also easily revert back to the stock lock (...and two smoking barrels! ) screen by modifying the code in /system/framework/android.policy.odex.

i installed the app. but when i choose set powerbutton action, i have only this one on the list :
shutdown: enable to shutdown on end call long press.
thats not right or ?
which code must i enter to disable lockscreen.
and would it be the same code to reactivate the stock lock screen ?

when i tick off the shutdown option, then 3 things happen:
1. the question if i really want to shut down my phone is gone. (i think this is the real action, what it does)
2. when i restart my phone, the sim card is not accepted, its even not asked for pin. i tried 3 times, so its not working
3. the lockscreen is gone.
so i need an other option, maybe i will deinstall it completly.
or has someone an other suggestion ?

Hey Rambone!
Most of the times these apps don't work together with apps such as LockBot for getting another lockscreen. Will try it out tho, thanks for the heads up
Great job on your ROM's b.t.w. mate, really awesome! Keep up the good work!

Hello I'm kinda of a noob to this stuff (not kinda really lol) and I was wondering where can I locate this sgs download on the forum
Hey XDA'ers,
I just picked up my N6 a few days ago.. I've been on Nexus devices after I gave up on the Galaxy S3. Never looked back! (Except for my CM12 LG G3 )
So here is my question to you all. Has anyone created or integrated app/code that once your face is recognized, unlock to home screen without a swipe? I was comparing the iOS finger unlock with my fam this weekend and it would be nice not to swipe up even though your face has been recognized.
If its not implemented, I can donate some money for someone to create something like that if plausible. Maybe a bounty if others are interested.
Thanks for taking a look!
Is that not the default behavior when you select face unlock as your security? I haven't used it in a little while however I am sure that is how it works. Turn on phone, look at it, boom home screen.

Nope. I use face unlock right now. Once it recognizes your face, it allows you to swipe up. It didn't automatically unlock.
Couldn't this pose a risk of unlocking when unintended? Perhaps you just want to see notifications on the lock screen quickly and see if you actually want to unlock and act? Or what about changing the track in the lock screen music player?

I see your point, however if someone were to make an app or bake it into a ROM, there could be a "hold off for __ seconds" before it checks for a face and goes to home screen. For instance, you could make it zero if you want immediate unlock, 10 seconds to check notifications. And if you didn't want to unlock and just check notifications, you would just hit the icon so it stays locked until you swipe up at that point (how it is with 5.0 at the moment.

Then I would be too impatient when I want to skip the lock screen and just swipe anyway - defeating the purpose. Swipe is faster than wait 10 seconds to auto-unlock.

Similar thought: I'd like to have no lock screen at all when smart lock unlocks the phone with trusted device/location as well.

I think it just makes sense! If you don't want it, simply deactivate the feature, right? I'm starting my developing classes later thus summer. Maybe I'll be able to cook something up if nothing shows up by then haha.
Thanks for your interest guys, but it looks like not many are interested :/
+1 definitely would love someone to fix this
Bump because I want this, I can't figure how to do something like this with tasker.
What I want:
Condition: Lockscreen locked with pattern, trusted face enabled and triggered.
Scenarios:
1. Notifications present? Remove pattern but allow me to swipe to unlock when I'm ready. (Current behaviour)
2. No notifications? Go straight to homescreen without any interaction as soon as my face is detected. (New behaviour)

I've been trying every combination of tasker and secure settings I can think of, but there's no way I can detect when smart lock is triggered with the built-in settings.
http://nelenkov.blogspot.com/2014/12/dissecting-lollipops-smart-lock.html
I read that, and there seems to be a per-user trusted flag that's edited by smart lock, if tasker somehow could read it, we could trigger actions with it.
There problem is I don't know where the flag is or how to read it, I'm a bit out of my league here, maybe you are more knowledgable in this matter.
Take a look at the Stock LG G2/3/4 ROMs, this is their default Face Unlock behavior. I came from the G2 and am having withdrawals, partially because of this feature.

I am still search for this
Hello,
I did a little searching but could not find anything specific to my setup. I'm going crazy trying to get double tap back on my phone. I know double tap to wake was working earlier in the day then I messed about in settings and I just can not find what I did that caused double tap to wake not to work, I'm running the Cataclysm rom on an otherwise stock 6.0.1. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, I'm going to go crazy and haunt you all.
Thanks
See if you changed something in smart lock.

Download Kernal Auditor in googleplay and under one of the tweaks is a double tap to wake. I've tried a few different double tap to wake mods and none of them really work as well as Lollipop, but it's something. I noticed it only works when tapping the lower center like 1 sec between taps.

its not in any settings, as google disabled it before releasing the n6. however, it can be re-enabled, with root of course. it can be included in a custom rom or you can use this nexus 6 double tap to wake app to enable it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codechron.n6doubletapunlock

Go to Settings > Security and scroll down to Trust Agents. Within that page, turn on Smart Lock. Go back and you will find Smart Lock where expected. Just learned this last month.

Then I definatley borked something. Smart lock used to be there when I bought the phone. I bought it already modified from ECrispy, the developer here. He restored everything to stock then flashed Cataclysm 6.0.1 on it and shipped it out to me. Guess I did somehting to it

Bet your setting it to full screen arent you? Set it for half screen and it will stick. Its a bug the Dev doesnt care to fix. Has been reported hundreds of times.

In miui based rom, touching the fingerprint scanner while the screen off will turn the screen on.
I know if password and fingerprint lock is enabled, this method works. But i don't want to set any password
Is there a way to do that on non-miui rom like lineage, aosp, nos, etc?
No. You must set a password/PIN/pattern prior to setting up a fingerprint.

Then you are having a problem with fingerprint I guess. All the people using custom roms here still touch the fingerprint sensor to unlock directly from screen-off to home screen, same as on MIUI.

Yes. It does drain the battery, both by the touch panel and the cpu clock needed to maintain it. It's small, but noticeable.

Ok, thanks for the info, but i still looking for fingerprint method
Cause i want to save my power button's life
Somehow I did it!!
I was resetting my device (Nos oreo), and add fingerprint+pin, reboot my device
And here's the bug:
After reboot I can't use my fingerprint, so I unlock it with my pin, went into setting and the fingerprint setting is gone (Nos bug, or Oreo bug maybe), so I decided to remove my pin and changed into swipe (default). I restart my device and voilaaa, the bug made me happy, the fingerprint is not gone, and the screen lock is still swipe. I try to wake my device by touching my fingerprint and it's worked, press my power button and just swipe to unlock!! No pin or password required :victory:
Here the screenshot

Hey guys
Why fingerprint unlock doesnt work after double tap to screen lock/off? Is there any way to achieve that. Everytime u double tap to make screen off , the next time u wake ur phone using fingerprint, it just ask for password. So u r stuck with only one option to press power button then apply fingerprint.
