type the pass and change it in settings>personal>lock
if you can't remember the pass HR will do the trick or you can search fore an app that would break the pass...but i'm not sure if you will find it

[Q] Lock Screen Options Greyed Out After 4.4.2 Update

I just updated my Verizon Samsung Note 3 to the 4.4.2 version of Android OS via OTA. I couldn't figure out how to get the Camera app to display on my lock screen, so I went to my "Lock Screen" settings and found something wrong. I had the Swipe Pattern as the unlock type at the time, and my only options where to change to "PIN" or "Password". I changed it to PIN, hoping that I could change back, but no luck, I am now only able to choose "PIN" or Password" for my lock screen options while the rest are greyed out and it still does not show an option to enable the camera app shortcut on my lock screen.
What I tried to do so far:
Cleared all cache on device
Disabled "Lookout" for being a device manager
Cleared certificate for "FoxFi" app
Rebooted several times (I read somewhere that doing a factory reset did not work either)
I'm hoping this is not a permanent bug in the 4.4.2 OTA update from Verizon. Does anyone have a solution?

Someone had suggested going to the security tab and clearing the certificates cache or something like that ... I am at work so don't have my phone in front of me , but that enabled them to change a bug wth the foxfi app. So maybe that will help you change the lockscreen security settings.

I went ahead and cleared all of the trusted certificates by going to "Settings > Security > Clear credentials" and IT WORKED! I can now select any of the unlock types and the camera app shortcut is now functional. Thanks for the help.

your welcome ! Glad it worked and got you up and running :good:

Clear credentials is grayed out for my phone. Any solution to that?

as a side not for those of you with root still you can make any of your widgets full size upon waking the phone on the lock screen which is pretty cool. you use a module for Xposed called Maximize Widgets

It looks like you have most likely encrypted your SD card, which forces you to have security installed. Go into settings>storage and uncheck phone storage encryption and sd card encryption and see if that resolves your issue.

guys i have the same problem,i can't find a solution i have cleared the credentials cache and no solution

Dont Worry i fixed it, but i think people should try this any. what was happening was my Galaxy s3 was in Easy Mode for somereason what that does is disables Lockscreen options like widgets and Multi-window, so if the credentials dont work, see if you have Easy Mode on, because after 2 weeks of frustration, disabling Easy Mode fixed it for me.

You mean the 'lock' icon placed right in the middle-bottom of the lockscreen?
If it's so, that is never supposed to happen. That icon is there to swipe up and unlock the screen.
Please let me know if I understood wrong.

yes, you are right. I mean that icon, and i think i did not descripted exactly.
if i turn on the "smart lock", and press the power button. The lockscreen might be lighted,and the 'lock' icon should be a "open lock", i can go to the main-screen without the password. Then i can click the 'lock' icon to make it closed, and need the password to go to the main-screen.
Do i descripted clear？

Yes, I just gave a try to Smart Lock, that I have never used before. Did you try resetting Smart Lock? May be try it once, and let me know.
By resetting, I mean to add your desired trusted attributes again, and also the PIN/Password/Pattern lock.

If nothing works, you can always reset your device back to stock, and try again. Sorry, I do not have any more ideas on how to solve this.
EDIT: Just a wild guess, remove the lock from PIN/Pattern/Password, back to Swipe or None, and then again set the lock. See if this helps.

Thank you all the same:good:

Can not change my fingerprint anymore

Hi,
I'm locked out of my fingerprint settings. Actually out of whole the lockscreen. It says my fingerprint is not verified and I should try again in 5 minutes.... But it keeps saying that.... I don't wanna factory reset.... or will this be the only option?
Thanks

Why don't you enter pin or pattern or any backup method you have, instead of using your fingerprint?

Strange; if fingerprint is not working, you should be able to enter a password (that was mandatory when creating your fingerprints)

I know.... But my phone just says finger not verified try again in 5 minutes.... I've waited much longer than that. I cannot change my lockscreen at al because it directly gives that notification. Really weird. I remember when this happened... My phone didn't recognize my finger a couple of times. At first I had to wait for 25 seconds or something.... Then one minute... Then five and yeah.... It still says 5 Pfffffffffffffffff I really don't want to factory reset. Can I backup my phone and factory reset and put everything back? Not only the apps but the app data also?

Because I couldn't open my lockscreen settings. But for some magical reason it is solved. It asked my fingerprint again and got in! Thanks for taking the time to read my problem

App Lock forgotten password query

Hello I am relatively new to the xda forums, and I'm using Nova 3i INE-LX2.
Recently after updating to Pie, I find that background apps tend to close alot faster than before the update. So I tried looking through developer options, but accidentally clicked the option for Disable Screen Lock (stupid). This had reset all my passwords, fingerprint, face recog, except my password for App Lock.
Since I always unlock my apps through fingerprint or face, I had already forgotten my PIN for my App Lock. Is there any other way aside from factory reset to reset the App Lock? If not, any rooted methods to backup all my data, everything, except App Lock?
Thanks in advance!
