Look in the xoom's themes and app Section......they changed the lock screen.......probably someone here could modify it to use the front cam....

It's possible, sure. You'll need a custom designed program to do it though as it's not a feature that Android has.

That would be a neat feature but only for a few times - I'm sure I'd get sick of having to be in the right amount of light with a tablet aligned properly and waiting for my face to register. I'd change it back to my pin# right quick.

Guys I found an app which uses face recognition lock(which works!) But it only locks apps.....and you can even bypass it by a pin.....its called visidion applock.....

I hope we can unlock by pin... imagine you have a problem and your face is not recognized anymore... you can't unlock your tablet... hu hu

you send message to dev of application.

Ppl I found a way to make this app use the face lock after you unlock your device......go to the settings of this app.....select the* keep the unlock status* option....you can exit this app....now keep any app running in the background(make sure that the app running in background is selected in the list of apps in the facelock app by visidion).....then lock your screen....when you will unlock it you will see the face lock.....it will only appear when you have to unlock the tab.....
Have fun...

Any change to lockscreen widgets in TW 4.3?

Hey guys!
I'm on CM 10.2 at the moment and was considering comparing the latest TW firmware. My biggest issue with TW in the past has been the inability to have multiple lockscreen widgets (and primarily a camera shortcut) while using a pattern lock.
Just wanted to know if that had changed with the release of 4.3 or if it's still the same?
Did a quick search but couldn't find anything conclusive.

If you're device is rooted! The just instal exposed framework! And download the module! Here it is works perfect!

Cheers mate.
I take it it's not officially supported in this update either then?

No it's not officially supported. I am not rooted but have got the functionality through the excellent widgetlocker.

Even with widget locker you can't access the camera without having to unlock the pattern lock though can you? Won't it just pop up the lock after selecting the camera shortcut in WL?

You can access the camera without unlocking. Just swipe right.

as far as i know its all the same, i use widgetlocker but in the short while i used stock it seemed the same as in 4.2
Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk

It really does work! Sweet!
Thanks guys!
When I first tried it I made a shortcut to the camera app. That doesn't work, you have to either swipe to the side or use the built in widget locker functions for a camera shortcut.

Remove Smart stay icon in notification bar?

Hi as title says, is there a way to remove the slight faded eye looking icon in the notification bar when smart stay features are on?
I always leave the feature on so the icon sitting on my notification bar is unnecessary. I am rooted and am amusing I need to delete a system file (maybe?) so if anyone knows please tell me
Thanks!

I fixed that on mine by using the corresponding option from Wanam xposed.

What do you mean? Can you tell me the solution?

Root. Install latest xposed framework. Install Wanam exposed module. Toggle the corresponding setting there.

use 2 finger to pull down from top and you shall see the option to turn it off.

That is not the same thing, the toggle will disable smart-stay, most people would want smart-stay to still work but not to show the icon.

I don't understand the process. It sounds quite complicated so I think I'll just live with the icon showing on my notification bar.

Finger Print Security

Hello Guys,
I was wondering if there's any Good and Less Irritating Fingerprint Security app for S5?
I need to lock some Apps like WhatsApp so what's are the Best options?
With cool features.. I tried using an app FingerSecurity (or similar) it was sort of irritating.. Because if my Device gets locked while using WhatsApp and i open the lock with Fingerprint.. Then it again prompts me to put Finger Print and when i scan again.. Nothing happens..
Please help me out.. And yeah my device is not rooted.

I don't think there are any apps for FingerPrint Security. If there is I wouldn't even trust that app. It's a good chance it's fake, or it can take your idenity.

Samsung should do it!

I can't send a screenshot, because I'm using a custom ROM. It's in settings-security-screen lock- fingerprint

I am not talking about Screen Lock.. I am talking about locking apps.

Oh. There is no possible way.

This is not true. Apps that use Samsungs fingerprint scanner don't get your fingerprint. The only get to know if the fingerprint is one of the fingerprint that are registerd.
Also Samsung does not save a fingerprint but a hash.

That is okay. I just want you to know that your fingerprints are not vissible to the apps which use fingerprint unlock
I would not give my fingerprint to an app either

Looking something similar to S note, that you can actually insert information on the lock screen not just having read only info.
Thank you anyway
