Hi, everyone!
I've made clean install of newly released NexusHD2 v2.5 and experiencing strange issue with my lockscreen setting.
Since its impossible to disable vibration on SLIDE type lockscreen I was using pattern to unlock.
Now when I select pattern in locksreen settings I get two lockscreens: slide and NEXT pattern comes up.
Has anybody run into such problem? Its strange that nobody reported it in rom's thread yet.
Thanks for attention.
Solved
I solved my problem. The case was in setting option ''Show widgets before unlock". This option should be disabled.

Nobody's 'reported' it because it's not a 'problem'. It's a feature which I personally use because I can then have the weather, time and alarm info on the lockscreen without having to unlock the phone first. I can also jump directly into the camera/a custom app, and it loads faster as the app loads whilst I input my pattern so it's ready once the phone is unlocked.
Where have you found this option...
Searching anywhere for it...
Maybe i'm Blind...

ZOMG. This is definitely a step in the right direction.
I'm going to contact the developer and find out if I can get the code to the lockscreen disable portion of the app. Would love to see if I (or someone with actual Android programming experience) could tweak that into something that disables the swipe lock but can keep the pattern lock enabled.
-edit-
Email sent, though BIP's developer is out of town this weekend. If anyone knows of any other apps that accomplish this, I'd be interested to know.
lock 2.0 disables it, as well as the app "no-lock".
problem is, even with the new version of battery indicator, every app ive tried the stock slider still manages to come back someway somehow , battery indicator seems to be the best solution so far, and im wondering if its lock 2.0 that somehow brings back the stock slider.

Hey have you ever been able to receive a response from the dev?
If you are seeking a "new" lock screen, or the "no slider" look.
I highly recommend Widget Locker.
It has a root bypass of the lock screen "5 second rule" which starts up the "old" lock screen.
I bought the app, used the root bypass option, and i havent seen my old lock screen yet.
They even have a keypress unlock, if you want a very simple lock screen, and you can hold your back button down for .5-2sec or so to unlock.
Though, I dont use the pattern lock, so i have no idea if it works in combination with this or not?
Edit: Disregard, I didn't realize the age of this thread D:
Sorry for resurrecting such an old thread. Funny thing is that I actually did start using WidgetLocker and I DO sometimes get the stock lock screen before it starts, so I was looking for a way to completely disable the stock lock. There are some apps out there that remove the stock lock but it causes every hardware button to wake the device up, which is no good. (This includes battery indicator as I just found out)
Yea, thats no good, it kinda defeats the purpose of having some sort of alternative lock screen when it wakes up on key press like that
I'm not sure why, but i have never got the lock screen to pop up again, unless i kill widgetlocker myself.
Well, if you indeed find out how to get rid of that lockscreen, i would love to know, it would be nice to not have a app constantly running pretending to be an alternate lockscreen, you know?
I am using the Extended Controls app from the market.
With it you can enable & disable just about everything the X10 uses (including the lock screen).
So I've searched through the threads and there doesn't really seem to be an answer for this other than to use something like widgetlocker, which I don't really want to do because I would like to still be able to use the music player controls from the lock screen. I'm just so annoyed by the haptic feedback every time I want to unlock the phone!
Does anyone know of any way to disable this?
btw Running Azure 1.0.1
Same here. But sometimes, if there is no answer in search means the problem can be solved easily... But I'm still finding the answer too
Go to: Menu - Settings - Security, then uncheck the "Use tactile feedback" option. Hope this is what you need.
@Rapier - yeah, I tried that but unfortunately all it does is disable all haptic feedback except for when unlocking the phone :S
Anyone have any ideas?
have been looking for this too a while ago and i have found this in the hero forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6521199&postcount=174
I haven't had the time back then to test it out myself so i don't know if it will work

Strange. For me it works exactly as it should. Is disabling the feedback only for the unlock pattern, on the other keyboards, dialer and so on, haptic feedback is still present.
Are you using stock or custom ROM? I recall you've said something about Azzure. Maybe this is the issue. I'm using stock ROM and have no problems disabling through the way I told you.

Ohhh ok yeah I guess that's the problem there. I'm running Azure 1.0.1 and unfortunately there does not seem to be any option on my ROM to disable the haptic feedback for the lockscreen as it uses the vanilla lockscreen, for which I believe there was no option to remove haptic feedback. But yes, I do recall being able to turn it off when I was running a stock ROM.
Well, that's a bummer, but thanks anyway!

Hey thanks! This looks like just what I need! I read through the thread and it doesn't seem like it's all too stable but I suppose it's worth giving a shot
Hi guys, I thought this would help you, so I wrote a (I hope) noob-friendly guide.
Basically, this fixes the screen turning on in your pocket and detecting random touches. It keeps on happening to me, I end up randomly calling people/emailing the president and it's really annoying when it happens.
This does NOT fix the flashlight turning on due to detecting a 'V' gesture (for that you gotta disable the gesture itself, sorry, can't prevent that happening).
So basically you gotta install this app (Glimpse Notifications) (Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with this dude, just sharing for fun) and do the initial setup. Then, in the app itself, go into the Extras menu and enable Lockscreen menu and enable 'Lock when covered' and the next two options you can set as per your preference (I use 'only in Lockscreen' and '600ms'. You can also enable a double tap to lock on the lockscreen if you're using the Beta version (available in the Extras menu).
Oh, and to prevent it from closing in the background, enable the Persistant Notification in Extras and go to your notification bar, long press on the notification and tap the crossed bell (assuming you're running Cyanogen OS/CyanogenMod/a ROM based on it) to hide it.
That's pretty much it, you're set!
P.S. I know you can get similar functionality using Gravity Screen etc. but this is free, and it's only polling your sensor when the screen is on and you're in your lockscreen, so it should barely use any battery (and uses only around 8mb RAM).
P.S.S. It's my first thread on XDA, any feedback would be appreciated
Good job!
My friend had a similar problem, this seemed to work for him, thanks!
Anytime!

Glad I could help
Christ almighty... a fix for this issue. I've actually had this happen all the time with disastrous battery drain as a result :/
After I've installed the 220MB update yesterday, the phone keeps asking for password almost every single time I unlock the phone. Even though I've got fingerprint enabled.
Keeps saying enter password according to device security policy.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Do you have a 3rd party launcher, I read somewhere Samsung made a change to what 3rd party apps are allowed to do, if you set something in the launcher that has to do with unlocking the phone this will be the result.
Thanks for the reply?
Yes, I have Smart Launcher Pro.
But is this new to this update? And is there any way to turn it off??
You can not switch it on and off. The only solution is to go back to the default launcher.
I think I found the solution. It uses Device admin rights to turn off screen on double tap. Disabling that seems to fix it.
i have the same issue
Im running stock launcher and i faced this problem as soon as i updated. nothing else is wrong with the phone except this fail to recognise my fingerprint.
After reading the post about launchers i remembered that i have 3 apps that tweak my phone, 'Galaxy buttons Lights', 'Easy Home' & 'All in one Gestures'. I disabled all and enabled each one and found out that 'All in one Gestures' was causing the issue. I had set up the app to have the top and bottom corners to toggle drop down menu and lock phone. These gestures where also active on the lock screen hence i think it was hindering the fingerprint recognition process. I guess the app has to push an update to fix this.
I now have this problem after update, I'm on stock its driving me mad!
Found my problem, its my screen off/lock widget.
I've now just tried 5 others and they all cause this problem, if I close by physical button then I don't get asked for pin on unlock, only if I use the widget does this happen
Same here. Although it's just S7, without the edges... And my password is over 10 characters long! So if anyone finds a true solution, that would be great... Stock launcher.
same with nova launcher, if you are using gesture to lock sreen, it needs pin/password to unlock, fingerprint is not enough...
samsung.. pls ..stahp..
I'd like to keep fingerprints to use with App Lock and such but without using the lockscreen. Any way to keep them?
I also want this, so it works like a password for apps
but I don't like to unlock my phone at all, just swipe on the lockscreen
I searched a lot, found another thread someone wanted this too
but nobody understood him, they thought he wants only Fingerprint without pin?
but why is it not possible to use Fingerprint (and backup pin or password) ONLY for applock, and not on the lockscreen

In addition to the FP, use on body detection and face unlock.
That should reduce if not eliminate the need to unlock the phone manually.

But then I can't swipe on the lockscreen, there's no lock at all, so if I was previously in whatsapp I would be instantly online, instead of just reading messages on the lockscreen

Try using the app No Lock :

I don't use the FPR,or,any lockscreen for that matter,so,IDK if this will work.
I used it on other phones where you had to use at minimum a swipe to open & it bypassed that requirement,perhaps it'll do the same in this situation.

It was only a suggestion.
I don't mind a lock screen on my phone.
I want my phone to lock.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried it, but still have to swipe to get in. I'm not sure of other OS' but TouchWiz allowed for it. I'll write OnePlus Dev's to hopefully include it on an update. Also, native rear flash notification since we don't have a led for it.
