Is anyone else anoyed by the redundant unlock process with 2.2? In 2.1 I had a pattern unlock only, you were able to disable the single swipe thing. Now it appears if you activate any kind of unlock (pattern, PIN, password) you will have to swipe the screen first to even get to the unlock pattern. Why? Only way to delete the swipe is to have no unlock pattern at all.
I did at first but I found out that you can control music with that lock screen. So when I have it hooked up in my car I dont have to unlock the phone just to change the song. After a while I just got used to it...
I had it disabled when I upgraded... now it's nowhere to be seen. WidgetLocker it is. Sort of your problem reversed.
ah ha! i knew i wasn't hallucinating. I had some audio controls for pandora even in 2.1 at one point, but they mysteriously disappeared. anyone know how to get that feature back?
Noticed this today while a friend was messing with my phone while it was standing on the table locked.
He pressed the lock button, the screen showed up with the clock, wallpaper and stuff.
My phone has a pattern lock, so he was unable to access the main launcher screen. But he was able to pull the notification/status top bar and do stuff like change brightness, disable wifi and bluetooth and so on.
To me it does look like a security flaw. Is there any way I can block that?
Thanks everyone!
I see that. But when i try to open anything, my pin code is required. Do you have a screen lock pin set up?
Edit. Ok i see what u mean. Quick settings can be changed, but not the settings gear icon. That requires a pin. Huh!
This is bonkers! Some of these may even potentially involve more serious security concerns, but in any case there ought to be a way to turn off this access. I do not want to allow anyone to change my Wifi network, Bluetooth device, open a hotspot, use the flashlight or even change the volume while it is locked - especially since I can instantly unlock it myself with a fingerprint.
This is really crazy indeed. I hope Google fix this on the next Android release or even let the users decide if they want this or not. I really don't want to root my device because of this but I don't see another option right now.
i don't like that a potential thief can turn off DATA even though the phone is locked.
I think this was meant to make toggling wifi, Bluetooth, airplane mode, flashlight, do not disturb easily accessible.
I installed this rom recently and noticed it was heating up in my pocket. When I looked, the screen was unlocked. I checked why this was happening and by accident, the knockon was activated. I disabled this function and the problem persists. Does anyone know how to solve it?
Obs.: The problem is not warming, but the unlocking of the screen because it has times that it makes calls to some contacts, opens randomly and opens some applications ... causing the device to warm up ...
If you're using Auto Face Unlock along with Smart Lock's On-body detection the phone will sometimes unlock right after you hit the power button without locking, that might be it.

Hello, I do not use Auto Face Unlock. That's why I find it strange. I have to use a password or the unlock pattern so that no bull**** happens.
The OnePlus 6T's fingerprint sensor can easily be bypassed with this trick. . We have confirmed it working on two phones so far. Phone Unlocks itself via camera and voice from Lock screen, plz some one report..
Please confirm that the phone cannot see your face when you unlock it, and no Smart Lock trigger was active.
This alleged problem does not exist on my phone.

No i turned off face unlock , it just unlocks itself, just open the camera from lockscreen then close the camera app,
no , i turned off face unlock, it unlocks itself from launching camera from lockscreen thn closing the camera app, it bypasses all security locks " fingerprint , pins and face unlock"
We shall wait for others to check. I couldn't reproduce the error at all.
Do not have this problem with mine, are you sure you don't have your left thumb registered?

Either way if this is true. you should be reporting it to OnePlus. Not telling everyone on XDA how to break into someone elses 6T

So if I'm hearing you right, you're saying that by opening the camera from the lockscreen and then pressing your home button, your phone unlocks? Doesn't do that for me, it prompts me for my PIN or fingerprint when I press the home button. Can't reproduce this either... Might reinstall OOS? I'm at a loss for advice on this one.
I can reproduce this. I use navigation gestures, so opening the camera from the lockscreen and then just close it with the right (or left) swipe gesture to go back and you're in the phone. I don't think it has anything to do with the fingerprint sensor.
Edit: now I can't reproduce it anymore strange.. [emoji848]
I'm not able to reproduce this either. Switched to navigation gestures. Turned off face unlock. Launched camera from lock screen. Swipe from side to go back took me to lock screen with fp prompt only, no keypad for PIN. Tried again, this time swiping from middle to go home. I get fp prompt & keypad for PIN. However, with this screen the camera stays open and viewable through the lockscreen, but phone is still locked.
After a few tries I see my home screen but it's only a flash then it's back to my lock screen. It looks like it may want to but maybe I'm doing it wrong. Either way, this looks important enough to report to OP and see what's what.

Tilted phone so it can't capture my face and tried as you've said - running camera and voice commands from lockscreen and phone is still locked, cannot bypass..
So there are two vartiants.
1) Phone still recognizes your face
2) Enabled smart unlock? so phone knows that you are in home and automatically unlocks device.

Nope, i unlocked my friends mobile @ my home...
You sure you have a pin/fp/pattern set up at all?
I've been trying for 5 minutes with gestures and it always just either asks me for a pin or sends me back to the lock screen.
Seems odd but maybe post it on the OP forums instead of here, won't get them to fix it if they aren't aware of it...
Nope. Unable to reproduce.
Hello everyone.
My Moto e4 sometimes gets stuck on lockscreen while I'm unlocking it. I swipe up, I insert the unlock pattern and the phone doesn't unlock. I am able to do an emergency call or go back to lock screen, but it doesn't do anymore, so I'm forced to reboot the phone. It happens with digit code too. If I enable the fingerprint sensor to unlock, It often has the same problem, except that I can read a strange message under the lockscreen's clock saying something that sounds like "fingerprint sensor not detected". As always, I need to reboot the phone to unlock it. Does someone else had this kind of problem?
Thanks in advance!
