Has anyone figured out how to tie the scanner to a different locksreen? I'm kinda dependent on my cutom WL screen and would like it back, but I love the fingerprint security on this thing.

Reading some of the lock screen apps cause fingerprint scanner to stop working.
I would like an app or widget to instantly lock screen but keep fingerprint scanner working.
Thanks
Same problem here. I have tested several and they all mess up the fp scanner. There are a gazillion of these apps, testing them all will take forever. Anyone k of of something that works?
Hi. I recently switched to the Axon 7 from an Xperia Z3. On my old phone, I used the ACDisplay LockScreen with a custom widget I developed myself that displayed custom unique information.
However, with the Axon 7, I am unable to use ACDisplay, as it does not function correctly when a passcode is enabled. Microsoft's Next Lockscreen, on the other hand, fully supports my fingerprint, but doesn't allow for a custom Widget.
Is there any way I can get both of these? If the Axon 7 had the stock lockscreen, I could use an Xposed Module. But unfortunately I'm left to use one of the many custom lockscreens, none of which seem to support both fingerprint security and custom widgets.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Out of the handful I tested, Next Lockscreen was the only one that worked properly with the fingerprint reader. Someone else may find one out there, though.
Hello readers,
I want to use NEXT lockscreen by microsoft instead of the default android lockscreen, but the only problem is i cant get fingerprint scanner to work with it.
In the setting of NEXT lockscreen it says to go to system and enable the fingerprint but that requires a pin as well and now when i swype down the NEXT lockscreen
the android lock screen pops up with the pin, so basically two lockscreen and 1 pin. However, finger print bypasses both lockscreens.
So my main point is can i set up a Finger print scanner without a pin or patten and then i will set a PIN in the NEXT lockscreen settings, so basically the android default
lockscreen would be set as none with a finger print scanner and a pin with NEXT lockscreen.
I've read an old post from 2015 about deleting the lockscreen.db from data/system/ using root.
While i am rooted, i tried to move all the lockscreen files from that folder to another part of the storage, no luck.
Paranoid if i delete everything will crash.
Hi everyone,
As you probably know, the Huawei lockscreen is really bad and outdated as notifications are not even "usable" like others lockscreen.
So i wanted to replace it by Next Lockscreen and everything worked well, except with the fingerprint scanner.
When i enable fingerprint, i can't disable the stock lockscreen anymore (sadly) so i have to unlock twice if i use the pin code and that's really annoying.
Do you have any tips to counter this effect ?
thanks all
I'm on the latest RR, 5.3.8. Finger print function works, but there's no addition settings available to do other things once the phone is unlocked (gravitybox added some additional functionality, but no xposed in 7).
I've tried several apps that let you configure additional functions to the finger print once unlocked. The entry i'm using is 'toggle notifications'. This works, but seems to add significant lag when unlocking the phone, requiring at least 2 taps to unlock.
Any thoughts or suggestions for achieving this? Ideally it'd be nice to do a slow double tap - first to unlock, second to toggle the notification without having to move my finger from the back to the front.
hello try to download the NExt lockscreen in Play store..work wonders for me...
Is this app similar to widget locker from years past?
I don't know if I want a full blown lock screen replacement. When I did have widgetlocker instsalled, i used the same apps as were on the home screen. Layout was very similar. Really all I want to do is use the fingerprint reader as another button. It's far more convenient to tap it once unlocked than to move fingers to the front of the phone to swipe the status bar down.
