Disable magazine unlock on android 7 - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

I have just updated my P9 to nougat via this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/help/p9-7-0-nougat-update-eva-lo9-b182-t3539754
The new rom has a magazine unlock screen that must be opened before you are shown the pattern unlock. I want to remove the magazine unlock screen completely so it goes immediately to the pattern unlock.
I have spent a few hours reading and cannot find anyway to do this. Are there new lock screens that can be installed with root access that will remove the magazine unlock screen? it is quite annoying as I have to swipe twice to unlock my phone now.

Lock Screen

Is there anyway you can have a shortcut to the camera whilst having a pattern unlock or pin unlock on the lock screen?
I'm sick of missing photo opportunities due to having to unlock the phone and the time it takes for the camera to load.

Android v4.2.2 has this option. Wait for a while for it to get released officially or head over to development section to try out the leaked firmware.

[Q] New lockscreen unlock method?

Hi, this is my first post so be forgiving
Just few weeks ago I've received new phone - Lumia 620 (I had 610 earlier). I had "some" experience with flashing my nokias and now I'm pretty intrested in modifying WP 8.1. I know this OS is closed and can be unlocked only partly for sideloading apps but I'm wondering if there's any way to change unlocking method or turn it off. What I mean? I mean unlocking phone by swiping just like in android not from down to up but from left to right or even by maze lock. I saw few apps in windows store, but they work only when screen is unlcoked whitch means i have to "lock" the screen by clicking notification which just makes screen black and "unlocks" phone after double tap. And there is my question: Can I turn off lockscreen? Btw. I saw this thread and I'm wondering if this app is just making interactive background or modifies system fiels so I can for example change unlock method?

lockscreen mod request.

hi to all, is there any mod that allows you not to immediately unlock the device with your face? in order to have the notification read first and then unlock with the swype, keeping the unlock with the face like on iphone X and huawei p20.
I'm also searching for a method to do this. It would be cool if we have a symbol on the lockscreen that we can push to start the face unlock or that unlocks the device after the face unlock.

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.

Is there notifications on the lock screen?

I mean the lock screen, not the always on screen.
Notifications from WhatsApp will be shown on lock screen? There is option to answer messages from the lock screen?
Thanks
You can see messages yes, but you have to unlock to unswer, but i think this is with every android device
No, on a OnePlus Lockscreen interactions work without unlocking.
I#m searching for a possibility to change this too.
Unlocking before being able to answer and the Quick settings without unlocking would be really a great thing.
