[Q] Lock screen pattern after swipe

what im trying to say is, can i have the glass lock screen and a pattern, and swipe the lock screen without the pattern , THEN have the pattern to show up? im on Continuum 5.6, thanks for any info.

shouldn't you be able to do that if you enable both the regular lock screen and the pattern unlock?
Another option is to get widgetlocker, with this you can customize lock screen and if you have the pattern enabled it will come up AFTER the lock screen, or atleast thats what it did for me.

yah i use to use widgetocker but no glass lockscreen and music controls.

on the newest version of widget locker theres an option for the SGS style which is more or less the glass screen and u can add the music widget onto it.

Fingerprint scanner keeps disabling

Hi guys, i'm trying to use the fingerprint scanner but it seems after the first time i enable it and use it, it disables itself when i lock the screen again and try to use it. So after the first time it works fine, but then when i lock and try to unlock again it asks me to "swipe to unlock" rather than use the fingerprint scanner. so ultimately it changes to swipe unlock after the first time using the fingerprint sensor upon activating it in settings....is this an issue? im a samsung noobie btw

Did you adjust the security lock time out under the lock screen settings after you enabled the fingerprint lock?

Samsung LED cover & lock screen

Hi all,
I received yesterday my Samsung LED cover.
I only have one question:
Is there a way to bypass the lock screen?
I mean when I open the case i want to get the unlock screen directly where I can enter the pincode or use the iris scanner instead of swiping the the screen first to go to the unlock screen.
I hope somebody can understand what I mean.

Not really sure what you mean. When I open the cover, my display turns on and I can use the iris (a red "light" turns on on top) or fingerprint scanner. Though I still have a problem to align the screen right for the iris scan. Still need to swipe to see the guiding circles.
I´ve even tried to open the case (display turns on), turn off the display then unlock with the fingerprint. Works. Iris scanner does not. The red "light" is off.
Check this:
settings -> advanced features -> accessories -> automatic unlock
There is a editor of LED icons as well.

The accessories part does not show up in my settings menu. Could you provide a screenshot?
EDIT: Never mind. It showed up when I put my note back into the LED case, lmao.

Disabling lock screen disables fingerprint security.

I'm not a big fan of the EMUI lock screen player controls for Spotify (and a few other apps). They aren't formatted correctly and look bad.
I've tried replacing the lock screen with several different 3rd party ones to take advantage of their music controls.
If you don't disable the EMUI lock screen (in developer options), then it interferes with the replacement screen.
Disabling the original lock screen also disables the fingerprint (and face unlock) security features of the phone FOR ALL PURPOSES.
Trying to reactivate the fingerprint security or register a fingerprint actually just reactivates the EMUI lock screen and your back to square one.
I can sacrifice face ulnock, but losing fingerprint unlock entirely is quite annoying.
Does anyone know of a workaround for this?

Mi 9 lite screen unlocks after missed call

Is there any setting that will prevent screen unlock after a call (missed)?
Phone should end in lockscreen but instead it unlocks to whatever I was doing.
I don,t have any lock except default swing up (no fingerprint etc)
Thanks for help.
