Guys is there a way to assing to the power button the new WM6.5 lock screen? I'd like that when i turn off (put in standby) my phone with the power button, the next time I wake up my phone it automatically shows the new WM6.5 lockscreen. Is there a way to do that? Thanks
Use HD Tweak and enable auto lock
The auto lock in HD Tweak messes up the backlight in WM6.5
Search on the forum for an app called Smart Lock 1.7D by Chobit Company. Install then go to Start/Settings/System/Smart Lock and enable "WM6.5 new lock" and "Suspend lock" Works perfectly!

If you use the WM65 default autolock by enabling it using HDTweak, you have to disable auto backlight, and also disable backlight in power setting to avoid the backlight problem.
Can use either HD Tweak and enable auto lock (disable auto backlight) or Smart Lock and then go to Start/Settings/System/Smart Lock and enable "WM6.5 new lock"
i only change one registry key to enable the wm lockscreen when the screen is out. HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDeviceLockEnable
Change from 0 to 1, then it should work.
I have tried in my lock screen settings to change to pin or pattern but no matter what after I re-lock my phone I still get the option to swipe the screen and there is no pin or patter it goes right to the home screen. I am probably missing an option but there was no alternative options on my Galaxy S3. Any help guys?
I can't seem to find the setting for setting the lock screen to none. I did bypass the lock screen in the venom tweak app, but I can't find in the phone settings how to even keep it from coming up in the first place. Right now pressing the power button briefly shows the lockscreen for about a second and then unlocks the phone.

edit: found a solution. used the venom tweaks to switch to ASOP lockscreen then downloaded no lock from the play store
The option for set to none the lockscreen was removed by htc since android 4.3.
So, the option are two, or do the same you did, or set the tweaks: Bypass lockscreen
In KitKat, pressing the power button or swiping up after a Moto Wave would skip the lock screen and go straight to android.
In Lollipop, pressing the power button brings up the lock screen. Swiping up from the Moto Wave screen flashes the lock screen briefly, then goes to android.
I don't remember how I had disabled the lock screen in KK, but in LP security->screenlock settings, there is no option to disable the lock screen.
Any thoughts?
Going to Settings > Security > Screen lock, and changing your setting to None will disable the lockscreen.

As per my original post, LP settings do not give you a 'none' option.

And you're on Lollipop, I presume?
Stock OTA upgrade, not rooted?
Mag, I'm on stock lollipop and I also have the option..

I'm on a modified system image, however I'm not aware that this was an add on...
Every other device running lollipop has this, hell, every devide running 4.0+ has it.
Can you upload a screenshot of what your's looks like?

I've read in another forum that removing the "Guest" user solved this problem. Others said running "Clear credentials" in the Security options helped them.

By lockscreen, do you possibly mean the keyboard (the one that shows notifications and you just swipe up on to remove)?
If so, mine does that too by pressing power. I just made a tasker task that turns the keyboard off and have it run at boot or if the screen is on. Keeps my PIN enabled when no Smart Lock conditions are met, but it now takes me straight to my home screen when I press the power button instead of using Moto's active display.
EDIT: wait, that always bypasses the PIN. Hmmmm
Its under settings-security-screen lock (1st setting).
Yes, it's the guest user issue. Funny thing is, I don't remember going into the Users settings (maybe the kids played with the phone).
For others reading, if you create another user or even use the Guest user once, LP disables the "none" option under Lock Screen.
It's silly how to fix it, though. You can't disable the Guest account from the settings page. You have to switch to the Guest user, then disable the Guest account from within the Guest environment. Which . . . doesn't actually disable the Guest account, since it still shows up in the User settings page.
In other words, not only is it unclear and unintuitive how to fix the problem, there's no visual indication in the UI that a change has initially occurred, or afterwards when the condition has been reversed.
Thanx for the replies.
With the fingerprint scanner's ultra fast response, entering the home screen is very quick. Thus, the lockscreen is rendered useless. Is there any way fingerprint scan opens the lock screen instead of the home screen just like how the iPhone implements it?
The fingerprint is for unlocking, so why showing the Lockscreen when you want to unlock. Just press the power button.
But I think it should be possible with Tasker, give it a try.
It should be useless, step back and one step more for unlocking -> loss of time.
I would like to have a option to double tap for waking the device. Just for checking notifications/time and not to press power button every damm time.
Is it possible?

Well in the lock screen, notifications are shown instantly, and looks cleaner; whereas in the home screen you have to swipe down from the status bar to access them. Apple have thought of it and so the iPhone 7 functions in this manner.
So what I'd like to see is: Fingerprint scan > double tap notification > app
Instead of: Fingerprint scan > swipe down from home screen> tap notification > app
An ability to switch to whichever sequence you want will be great.
Take a look at this.
As I already said, Tasker should be an option for your purpose.
My opinion is another than yours, I think it's very annoying what Apple did and my wife is always yelling at her iPhone because of this "feature".
I didn't have this on my previous i6s because I used to jailbreak and there was only iOS9.
The jailbreak issue was the reason for me why I leaves Apple for Huawei.
Now I have the original smart cover for my P10 and the most annoying thing of this cover is, that Huawei won't allow third party apps the access to the smart cover lockscreen, so they can display notification icons on it.
But when I want to turn on my screen I either lift the cover or, when it's already lifted, I push the power button. Even though I'm a leftie I think it's a good solution and works very well.
