Hello
I want to have swipe plus additional security on my lock screen for Note 3. Is this possible? I am rooted, and have xposed installed, but couldn't find any modules that supported this. I'm still on 4.4.2.
thanks
Hello
No one?
I tried using gravity box's swipe before pattern for this, but my phone stuck on lockscreen and I couldn't unlock it. After many tries, and prayers, I finally unlocked the screen and promptly unchecked this.
Any other way to use this?

Hi guys,
Downloaded the Note 3 UK Kitkat update today via OTA
Ever since, when I go to unlock my phone, there is no lock. The pattern/pin I set works for 1 "unlock" and from then on I don't need it and only get asked for it again when I reboot.
Has anyone else ever encountered this and how might I fix it? Tried everything and nothing at all works - and my phone isn't secure at all.
Any ideas, I'm nearly out of them
Go into Security in settings and double check your lock time settings.
Ive been out of rooting since my thunderbolt so forgive me here. I want to root mu Verizon S5 and I'm wondering what I need to do after rooting to make it so I dont have to hit the ok button after I input my lock screen pin code. I prefer pin code over all else but I hate the ok button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Install Xposed Framework, and then install the Wanam module, under the Lockscreen section you will find "Enable quick PIN unlock" thant will do it for you...
I have a international and domestic unlocked sprint samsung galaxy s4 running stock rooted 4.4.2 NAE on straight talk. I've never touched the security setting in the 9 months I've had the phone but the other day I wanted to change it from swype to unlock to pin to unlock. It lets me go through the process of setting up a pin but after I enter the pin the second time it just goes back to the main menu and shows it's still on swype to unlock. Anyone else ever have this problem or no a way of fixing it?
Also I just notice when I select screen lock in settngs it shows Swipe, Face unlock, Face and Voice, Pattern and None as greyed out with "Turned off by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage"
Also forgot to add that I have earlier versions of philz recovery and Kt kernel but i'm going to update to their latest versions today.
Check out unknownforce's thread on stock rooted NAE. He talks about this issue in there and may have your answer.
I had a question, I rooted my tmobile s5 with odin and cwmod and afterwards my lock screen settings were changed so that pin and password are the only two ways to unlock it. The other settings are there but they're grayed out so that I can't select it. Any ideas on why this could be? Bad root? I need to flash another ROM (I kept it stock btw)
Hello,
My brother passed away almost 2 years ago under strange circumstances and I own his galaxy J3.
However the device boots to a pattern lock. I think it's running android 6 and is a tracfone J3 Luna Pro. I really would like to read the data from the device to have some closure. Given the device is now a few years old and hasn't been updated in almost 2 years, has there been any methods revealed which will allow me to bypass the pattern lock?
I tried to install TWRP but got SECURE CHECK FAIL : recovery and also FRP LOCK: On. from the device screen. Then I assume it's got the custom firmware disable bit set or whatever. Then does anyone know a work around that I can install a custom recovery?

@2gg1 you seem to be pretty active here. Any ideas on how I can install a custom recovery in this case?

Is there a way to root the device from recovery, etc?
First off all my condoleance.. The phone should have OEM unlock turned on which is by default set off. And only can be reached in developer settings. Check with this code on the dial app *#*#7378423#*#*. Not sure if it will work but give it a try
