I can't turn off screen lock

Hello everyone,
Somehow I have inadvertently set my tilt to lock the screen whenever the screen turns off. I need to disable this, and I can't find a setting. I looked in Kaisertweak, and adjusted settings in settings>system>Key Lock.
I currently have fast sleep and sleep disabled in Kaisertweak, and I have Key Lock set to "do not lock buttons".
Whenever the screen powers off, it enables this mode so that when I turn it back on I have to press the left softkey, which says "Unlock", and then press the Unlock button on the screen.
The worst part is that this is a sudden mystery problem. I went to bed last night with a proper phone, and woke up to this. I've been searching the forums all morning trying to find the answer, but I'm not having any luck.
I'm running Dutty's latest 6.1 build.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Jeff

Okie Dokie, well, I found the problem.
I had inadvertently turned on the "lock on wake" feature of the batterystatus plugin.
I didn't even know that I had this.
Problem solved.

thanks man.. I did the exact same thing yesterday and I didn't know how to fix this, until I read your post. I dont' even remembering checking that option in batterystatus. It's kinda weired. But thanks again..

My corporate MS Exchange Server automatically enforced the screen lock security to be used when I connected to the server for the first time. Everytime the phone goes to sleep I have to reenter the password to get access to the device. This is annoying and I would like to disable it somehow. Following the above information I went to the battery options advanced tab and disabled the option "Turn off the device if not used for...".
This seems to stop the lock screen after pushing the pwr buton on and off.
Does anyone know a better way to avoid the screen lock required by MS Exchange Server setting?

Entering PIN after bootingHi

Hi,
perhaps there's a very simple answer to my question. After booting my DIAMOND, there's the original dialpad for a very short time. I couldn't enter the pin. Then it shows "network unreachable". Ok, without Pin, it's ok. But why i can't enter my pin after booting?

im not sure if the problem i have is related, but about 50% of the time when i reboot the phone it goes to windows home screen without asking for a PIN.
It does not load TF3D its just a plane black today screen with calander at the bottom.
If i go comm manager and turn off then on "phone" or "airplane mode" this forces the device to ask for the PIN
after successful PIN entry the phone works as normal!!! bizzare
This has happened with every ROM i have tried so i can only assume its a problem with my device or the 3rd party software i introduce to it after i flash the ROM.

I have this too. But I just press the "Phone call" hardware button and then the screen where you can enter the PIN appears.

Missing and greyed out lock screen options after update to Marshmallow

Hi there. I have the Huawei Mate S CRR-UL00. Here in South Africa, we stopped getting OTA updates after Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, which has been really frustrating. So I decided to do a manual update to Marshmallow using the Middle East update from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-s/general/huawei-mate-s-firmware-crr-ul00c185b355-t3411584
That was a couple days ago, and everything has been running brilliantly... Up until this morning.
Without me changing a damn thing, all of sudden the option to have no screen lock password has been greyed out due to it being disabled by "device administrator, encryption or credential storage". None of those things have been set for this. I've also gone through every fix I could find online, like clearing out the credential storage and disabling the device administrators. No luck.
But then while going through everything on the phone trying to find what could have done this, I realized that I'm no longer getting detailed notifications on the lock screen. But here's where it gets weird. When I go to the setting to change this, IT'S NOT THERE. If I search the settings, it finds the correct option, but when I click on the search result to take me to the correct screen, there's nothing.
I'm a little bit stumped on this one and could really do with some guidance.

go to settings > screen lock and passwords
go to password
go to pattern
draw a 4 point pattern
enter backup pin 0000
lock device with power button
unlock device with power button to show lockscreen
enter a WRONG pattern
wait 30 seconds
enter your backup pin (0000)
it should reset your lockscreen security password should be
set back to "none".

Cannot disable the screen lock on S8+

I cannot disable the screen lock!
I believe it is a result of that fact that I just enabled the Find My Device feature via google.com/android/device manager. I set up a password there. Then my phone locked, and I had to enter the pw to unlock it. Now, I always have to enter that pw to unlock the phone. I tried to turn off the password lock in the phone settings. Under Screen Lock Type, it says password. I am required to type in the pw, to turn it off. It temporarily changed to "Swipe", No Security. But then as soon as a navigate away from this screen on my phone, it goes back to "Screen Lock Type" - Password. I can't disable the screen lock! It's driving me nuts. So, I turned off the Find My Device feature. I also went into Phone Administrators and removed the radio button next to Find My Device. That didn't do it. I restarted the phone. I disabled google smartlock (I don't know if that is relevant). That didnt' work either. I read something about selecting Clear Credentials, but that option is grayed-out on my phone.
Please Help!!!
