Hi All,
I need an app which I can't seem to find.
Basically I don't want to have to enter my pattern to unlock my phone when I'm at work, So either when I'm connected to the Wifi or through GPS. Either way is okay with me. I dont even mind if i can get a widget and i can just disable/enable the pattern lock with a simple press.
I tried doing this through tasker, but i have no idea how to do it.
My phone is rooted, if that makes a difference
All help appreciated.
Thanks
anybody?
Get "Secure Settings" from play store. It has toggle for pattern and swipe lock.
How do i use it? I don't understand Tasker
Do u have Titanium Backup installed on your device??? If yes, simply freeze Keyguard app... Reboot and ure all set...

I was about to post this question when I saw this thread. I searched google and found other sites where the accepted solution was to use gestures instead of the slide. Or to use widget locker. Apparently there is no way to turn it off.
Does anyone know how to disable is by using root access to delete a driver or something?
I am using lock menu program, you can download it from the market. In its options you can disable vibrate on unlock
It's probably my #1 annoyance with the current android build. GIVE US THE OPTION TO TURN THAT SSSS OFF!
With that said, yea, you can either disable the slider and use gesture lock or widget locker. Personally, I dont want to install more crap just to get rid of the vibration, so I went ahead and use the built in gesture lock instead.
I'm looking for a simple app that allows the the Atrix to be woken up via the volume buttons.
I know that there are several other apps, but they all center around removing the lock screen, or replacing it. I *want* the lock screen, I just also want to be able to use the volume keys to wake the phone up.
Is there ANYTHING out there like this? Just this SIMPLE function? I'd even use a bloated app if it allowed me to use the stock lock screen.
Just try widget locker. You can customize it so it can be simple like you want it.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
"No Lock". Flawless & free..

I gave it a try, and it *almost* works like I want it. I use the fingerprint to unlock, and if you have both the pattern and the fingerprint set, it appears as though after the device wakes up you still need to swipe the screen. This is a hassle. Maybe I'm missing something in the configuration? Also, it appears that WidgetLocker is laggy as hell.

I specifically said that I *WANT* my lock screen.
I only need the ability to wake up the device by pressing a volume key.

I'm not sure why you are upset?
I asked for an application that allowed me to keep my factory lock screen, and NoLock does not do that. If you have "NoLock" enabled, then the volume keys wake up the phone... they also UNLOCK the phone. If you disable "NoLock", you have the lock screen back, but the volume keys do not wake the phone.
Maybe if you had actually read the post, you would have realized why I responded the way I did.
I know there's an app for it. But I can't remember.
One thing is if you have tasker set context volume buttons, task screen on.

I cant find any way to choose the volume button in tasker context. any helpful suggestions?
I'm just starting out with Tasker, and man are there some endless possibilities. I also can't find any references to the volume buttons. Any help would be appreciated.

Me too, that would be perfect.
For now, you caa use "anyunlock" on market. This tool is not stable if you use with advance task killer and fast reboot. This is shorterm solution with me!

This app right in the FAQ section says, "Can I use the standard Android Lock Screen", and the answer from the developer is no... Still not what I'm looking for.
Any luck finding that?
WidgetUnlocker now allegedly supports the finger print scanner of the ATRIX. I have found it unreliable at BEST.
I'm waiting for another release to see if the capability gets more stable.
The problem with wu is that it's canceling the slide to answer and that renders it useless.

Nolock will prevent full lockscreen but allow to bring out of sleep mode via either volume buttons or power button. The timed sleep mode in settings will put phone to sleep.

Hi guys
I realised everytime we off the screen, and when we turn it back on, no matter how long, the lock screen will be activated. And i cant find a option to set a time before it locks.
Any help on this? Im on stock rooted KF1

If let the screen turn off instead of lock then the lock after time setting in the settings is vaild. However if you lock the screen then thus setting is bypassed and the unlock screen will be shown after you unlock the phone. I use delaylock from the market to bypass this and have the lock screen disbaled for my custom amount of time no matter how the display goes off.

Sounds right. It isn't free.

Use no-lock to bypass the lock screen. Its best and free.
Market link - https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock
widgetlocker is a good alternative, isnt free but loads of great options.
Guys up till now are there any apps or settings accessible so when i press the power button to off the screen but still doesnt lock it?
Tried widgetlocker alrdy but no such option
I dun mean bypass password screen btw.

Is it possible to have both a swipe lock and a pin lock? I want to have a pin lock if the phone hasn't been used or unlocked for 30 minutes and a swipe lock to avoid accidentally unlocking the phone. The pin lock is a requirement for accessing a corporate Exchange account.
It worked on my old Nexus One with CyanogenMod 7.2. But I haven't figured it out on my Nexus 4 with CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly
I'm sure this would be possible using tasker if you have any experience with that app. In fact tasker allows you to pin lock only certain applications which may come in handy for you. You should look it up if you haven't heard of it before.

I was able to set a pin lock with Tasker using Secure settings. But I'm not sure what will happen if I disable the pin lock and switch to Swipe lock a hundred times a day. Perhaps the corporate security admin will wipe my phone :silly:
Could it be solved by using another lock screen than stock?

Installing Widget Locker solved my problem :good:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker
Switch between swipe and pin (or pattern)
Has anyone found a possible solution?
I LOVE swipe lock, dashclock, and quick apps etc. But at work, I would prefer a pin. When I don't want the pin anymore, instead of diabling a lock screen all together, how can I set it to revert back to a swipe lock screen?
***side note unrelated (don't hate me) ****
share a related thread?
I have been searching forever for a way for Tasker to realize im driving and change settings etc because Im going say 20mph (even just for a few seconds) would indicate that I am likely driving.
*********thanks for not hating me***************
Here are some resources for lock screens:

Thanks!
IDEA: at location 1 --> enable pin at location 2--> disable pin
A toggle as listed above for random situations like a baseball game etc.
Ok so im using an app locker that locks access to apps and asks for pin code. But there's an easy way to bypass it because anyone can just delete the applock app or force close it from settings and they could access any app. So is there any way to prevent uninstall of a certain app and prevent it to be force-closed?

Usually these apps have options to be hidden or something. Otherwise they are useless.
