[Q] How to add pattern lock and keep swipe light effect?? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, just wondering if anyone knows how to keep the swip light effect lock but still have a pattern lock after you swipe? if I activate pattern lock, it removes the swipe unlock and just goes straight to the pattern when you wake up your device. I want to be able to keep swipe unlock cus I like the light effect but then after you unlock, go into a pattern password or a numerical password.
Anyone know any app that can maybe do this?? thanks!

That option was available on my note 2 not sure why the option has gone.

nope they say to download the app from the market to remove it and when you do that no lock screen will work!
from all the threads I have seen I don't think its possible you can change it all together to a diff. one but not only keep the pattern one sorry

Are you just looking to get rid if the Sense unlock? Or trying to get rid of the pattern unlock?
I'm using widget locker to get rid of the standard Sense lock screen. I'm sure there are hundreds of different posts on what people use.

Widget locker is the way to go, you can change to the stock android or iphone style.

[Q] Unlock Screen

having trouble with the lock screen and security. I can put widget and apps on the lock screen no problem. But when I add a password or pin or other type of security I no longer have access to the widgets and apps on the lock screen. is the a short coming in Android 4.2 or am I missing something?
It is working as designed. Password or pin means security and widgets bypass this. Pick a less secure option or give up widgets.

Not natively, but the solution I set up for my wife's phone works pretty well. Try using Widgetlocker for your lockscreen, and setting your TW lockscreen security to pattern or pin. Unfortunately you won't have the pretty lens flare effect, but it does work pretty well.

Surprising!! I thought the point to widgets on the lock screen was that you could easily and quickly perform or see something without having to UNLOCK your phone. Just don't understand!
in my S2 i had a number password and widgets.
when i chose a widget to open it would first ask for a password and then open the app.
don't get why this isn't the case in my S4 (SGH-I337M).

SPen Bypass

I've noticed when I take my s pen out when my screen isn't on it bypasses my lockscreen and goes straight to my homescreen. Now I only have the basic swipe lock on. Anyway to prevent that from happening? I use the phone way too much to put a pin or symbol lock on. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

[Q] Disable lock screen sliding?

Lately when I go to unlock the screen from the lock screen, I'll accidentally swipe from the left of the screen and it will take me to a widget page, where I'll have to swipe back to middle, up to default lock screen, and then try swiping to unlock again. Is there any way to disable this annoying lock-screen widget thing?

Maybe someone can get this working in a xposed module

You could disable the lock screen altogether. When you double tap it would take you directly to your home screen.
I like the LG lock screen ...but I have no need for lockscreen widgets

Any progress on dealing with this problem?
Still no answer?
You can try lock screen policy app from the app store and that disables widgets on lock screen ... I think it should work with LG lock screen
