[Q] cm7 main lock disable and keep gesture lock only?

I am running cm7 with 4g rom and nighly #18 and i want to be able to disable the main lockscreen((either one of the 4 that offers CM)) and just leave the gesture lock only.
Anyone has any idea on how to do this? Thanks
[edit]
i tried no lock and its a no go, it disables all, found an app called gesture lock but you have to pay....

Settings>CM Settings>Lockscreen settings>Unlock Options> Disable Unlock Slider

Yeah it took me a second to find it lol. On 6.1.2 the option was in a diffrent location and on 7 RC2 I had to look for a good minute to find out where that settings new location was.
Moreover. I love the guesture lock and its on only thing I use. I hae guestures for everything. I am still getting use to the guesture feature for texting. I just cant ever remember to use it lol.

[Q] Is it possible to get rid of the slide to unlock screen?

So is there anyone that has developed something that will allow you to get rid of the unlock screen completely? I think it would be nice to just be able to hit the button and not have to slide the screen every time.

i havent used this app so i dont know if it works or not but it does what you want.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock&feature=search_result

I use Battery Indicator Pro. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.darshancomputing.BatteryIndicatorPro
The free version can't disable the lockscreen.
Just search for "disable lockscreen on the market.

Awesome! Thanks you guys!

On CM7 there is a feature for disabling the lockscreen.

Except that it re-enables all the time. (Issue 2121 on the Bug Tracker).
Been waiting a long time for this to be fixed.

I know there is a app that uses your proximity sensor to detect if the phone is in your pocket, and if not it will unlock your phone when you press the power button.
Going trough my app list now.
Edit:
Found it, it's called Intelligent Keylock Unlocker

I found the same, BUT!
Disabling instead from the recently added 'Tablet Tweaks' menu means it stays disabled. No idea what's wrong with the other disable methods, but this one works. Yay!

I love you.
Now i can reconfigure my Power Widget as i don't need that particular toggle switch any more!

Theres an app on the market called no lock. all it does is gets rid of the lock screen. I was using battery indicator pro for it but hated the notification that was always there.

[Q] Nova Launcher double tap to lock

Double tap to unlock works with Nova Launcher if the device is locked via the back button. What I am looking to do is double tap to turn off.
Any ideas or help in configuring the Nova double tap function to execute this action?

Double tap the notification bar. You can probably set it up to shut off home screen taps too with gestures - i'd assume.

I guess this is what I'm looking for. Which setting it is to assign to the gesture of double tap in NL settings.
For now, the double tap of the notification bar works great.

What you could do is get screen off and on from the playstore and then assign that to the double-tap gesture. Hope that helps.

Thanks wargreymon89 - installing now. seems like a perfect fix.

In Nova launcher you can assign an activity for a double tap...anyone know what activity "knock knock" is? Ive went through the list a few times and couldn't figure it out.

Tried a few things, ended up using Screen Off and Lock from play store. Works like a champ. Just set double tap to shortcut, activity, then screen off and Lock.

Truck,
I assume you have Nova Launcher Prime then? I just have the regular version. Please confirm. I would love to have double tap capability again on my HTC One M8 like I did with my previous phone, the LG G2.
My M8 has double tap to WAKE already installed. Will doing this disrupt that, or just add to it? Please confirm.
Thanks,

No, you should be fine. The double tap to sleep works on the homescreen of Nova Prime, and then you already have double tap to wake on the M8. There won't be any disruptions.

Is it still not native within Nova Launcher like KKLauncher or Smart Launcher?
Do we still need third party app?

Quick question, are you guys just turning off your screen, or turning off AND locking? I'm looking to JUST turn off.

[HOWTO] Disable double tap to wake/unlock LG G3

Hello folks! For those who want to disable the option "double tap to wake/unlock" on LG g3 for any reason, in my situation the phone ever got the screen on when I accidentally tap the screen, that was draining my battery, now I found an app that can disable this option. It's called "Any Cut" you can find it in play store for free, create a shortcut for the "Knock On" apk and there you can disable this option. (But it still working if you use knock code to unlock).

Why not use a knock code. 4 knocks to unlock, my phone never comes on by itself not once.

I love knock code but in my case is kind of annoying. Ever a accidentally touch the screen, it comes on. Also using knock code when I take it out of my pocket it's asking me for recovery password.This is for those who want to disable this. Like me.

for me this works only for double tap to sleep. the double tap to wake still remains on and it doesn't help me to much.
also i use a quick circle case and it constantly wakes in my pocket and i really want to deactivate this and i don't know how

normally i use knock code unlock but i tried also your method. the problem is when i use the quickcircle case. if the case is opened, the double tap feature is disabled for both turning on and turning off the phone. if the flip is closed, i can still turn on the phone with double tap.
i am desperate to solve this. my battery is killing me due to this

Well, I think the problem is with the quick circle case, it works with a magnetic point that auto-activate the double tap to unlock. It's the same case as if you use knock code, double tap activate itself and for now I haven't found a solution if you are using the circle case. But even you don't double tap the circle the screen turns on?

Dang man. Maybe try and find whatever app uses the Reed switch from the magnet on the cover. And disable it. Or cut the magnet outta the case.

It can be turned off in the hidden menu

It depends in which LG g3 variant are you using. For example; I'm using LG g3 from sprint and my hidden menu isn't very helpful at all. Only show few options...

Try the app gravity screen. I used it on my s4 when I was having the same issue you are. It helped big-time.

you're an angel!!!
My bf was going nuts over this and I cant seem to find a solution until now. He's so annoyed that he was willing to downgrade to any phone the very next day after getting it. Lol. I've tried the hidden menu but only showed me 3 (Verizon). Thanks!!
I on the other hand will keep the knock on enabled on my M8. ??

Double tap screen off like g3 with nova.

Not sure if anyone using nova knows this or anyone interested or anyone wants to get nova or whatever reason just likes to have this feature.
First step is install nova and prime (I think it requires this because we need the gesture)
Go to app store and download Screen off and lock by katecca. (You might wanna activate the app first) .
Once downloaded go to nova setting. Go under gesture and buttons. Select double tap. On the top tab select app. Scroll down to screen off (under s). When you first select it. It will have to activate the app first and just hit yes/activate it. (Unless you activated it first)
Once done..
You can now double tap anywhere to get screen off instead of the status bar.

Awesome! Thanks for the tip!

Thanks! Good find till a dev can get the wake/sleep working without issues!

Now if only the back button was on the right hand side so when I use the phone in my right hand I can reach it.

If you have greenify you can link doubletap to that also.

That's what I've been doing for a while myself... Double tap will Hibernate + Lock phone aka Sleep.
Works very well

how about the other way?

G3 allows you to open and unlock phone? with tap patterns. Would love❤ to see that on this phone?.

Works but really does lock the phone so Smart Lock doesn't function when you're in a trusted location.. anyone know of a workaround or an app similar that will work with Lollipop?

Validus ROM has double table status bar to sleep. You can download it on their google + page.

I know this thread is a little old. Is this still the best double tap to sleep method through Nova?
