WidgetLocker has a setting so you would need to unlock the screen before answering or ignoring the call. not sure if is password enabled.

Best solution I have found thus far has been to insert my phone in my pocket

use the fingerprint scanner and adj settings
or dont have ya girl call when ya wife
is at home

Tried data Defender? Might be able to lock down your Dialer?

Use your phone immediately after eating chips and other oily food without washing your hands. Nobody would ever dare to touch your phone.

lockscreen

Is it possible to set a "pin to unlock" screen that only requires the pin to be entered at first boot, as opposed to every time you unlock the phone?
I'm using CM6
Sadly, nope. Not yet, at least, to the best of my knowledge.
You can edit how long it takes before the lock kicks back in.....

Oooh, that's true, I hadn't thought of that. Not quite what he was asking, but if it were set to lock after... Six hours. That should be sufficient.
Yeah, I know it wasn't his exact question but I figured it was a good back up plan ....

turn the phone off, when off, hold volume-up, home button and power button...a menu should pop up, navigate using volume buttons to factory reset and select using the home button (I think)

not sure. but it should as it is basically resetting the phone...

Why don't you call your seller and ask for the code...
Looks like "hot" SGS to me :|
You would be lucky if he enabled "USB Debugging" on his phone. Flash the phone and your phone would be brand new. This is theoretical though. Never faced any problems like this.
Doesn't seem like you bought the phone eh mate? If he has Tracker Apps, you would be screwed my friend.
Just do the factory reset, it will work.

Eye gesture?

For some reason I cannot get the eye gesture to work for scrolling Web pages any suggestions? Is there a distance you have to keep your fave from the screen?

You have to tilt the phone....and just hold it like if you were watching a portrait video.....speaking of which...
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE WHOLE LOOK AWAY PAUSE WORKING ON THIS PHONE?!?!?!?! Since day one I've been trying to get that to work and nothing....not one single time did that damn feature work....
I hope I helped @corybucher if so hit the thanks =) lol
P.S. corybucher ........this is in the wrong section...it's supposed to go in Q&A a mod will probably move you soon
believe the look away pause feature is only for the stock video player

The look away or "Smart Pause" feature also works in the youtube app. It worked for me without even trying and is definitely a cool feature to show off the s4. Just make sure you enable "Smart Pause" in the settings under settings, my device, smart screen.

Thanks figured it out.

Also helps to hole the phone still and level and tilt your whole head just a hair or the phone...

Smart pause gets insanely annoying when ur trying to show someone a YouTube video and it pauses everytime you turn the phone

Any way to get the scroll to work in all apps?

New message wake

I may be missing it, but does anybody see an option that won't wake the screen when a new message comes in?

Yeah you need to have a custom room or xposed mod to get the setting back.

Dang, seriously? I guess I'm so used to rooted phones that I didn't realize that wasn't just a general setting. We need root bad.

For SMS/MMS, I installed Textra and turned off the native messaging app. Textra allows you to not wake up the screen in settings. Not exactly a fix, but I'm liking the app so far.

Question about fingerprint scanner

So if you jailbreak iPhone 5s/6/6plus you can unlock the phone by just putting your finger on the home button without unlocking the screen. Is it possible with some tool in Samsung Galaxy s5 by just swiping the pad without turning the screen on making the phone unlock?
Thanks for answers

I would totally like that if it is possible, and think it won/t use too much battery as if it is only the print sensor on, I hope somebody can help us with this.

Yes its a very awesome feature and I think its possible if some dev looks into it. I dont have S5 atm but I am considering buying the phone if this is possible
As of right now, there is no mod that allows this. but i'm sure sooner or later some dev will get it to work, as the posters above me have already said.

It will take a hit on the battery since this feature will be emulated through software since the hardware restricts it. For that to happen we have to modify the kernel to make the cpu stay awake at all times at low power. It's just like the Double tap to wake feature that is also sort of "emulated".
