Content hidden - notification - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I keep searching through the XDA and on the web because I can not see any additional information on lock screen. I found that the S7 users got the same trouble but they can resolve it when turning lock screen "none" but unfortunately I can only use "swipe" as for now (B05). SS below

No Lock Screen

I installed Antoniomistrstta lockscreen and heartofwolf lockscreen fixV4 transparent today but it didn't do anything anyway I uninstalled it the problem is I don't seem to have my lock screen all I have is unlock in the bottom left hand side of the screen, how do I get my lockscreen back??
anybody please..
It's reverted back to the classic lock screen.
Go to Settings, Menu, All Settings, Lock, Display (tab) and change "Windows Classic" to "Windows Default". Click OK and it will restart your phone.
That should sort it
I have been to settings, all settings, then I get a screen with bluetooth,Lock, sounds, et I go into lock and all I have is 2 tabs password and hint..

Something's messed that screen up then, because there definitely should be 3 tabs. I'd ask on the threads that you got the lockscreen mods from, because they're surely responsible for this.
Thanks I am just installing the original rom again so hopefully this should sort it out, fingers crossed, thanks for your help..

Ah well, if you're happy to flash a ROM then you'll be okay. As I'm sure you're aware, it's the default lock screen, so it will be there after you're done.
At least you know what not to install now
Try opening up Regedit of some kind and go to:
HKEY_Curent_User > ControlPanel > Keybd, and change DeviceLock-something to 1

[Q] Where are the Lock Screen Settings?

For the life of me, I cannot find where the lock screen settinsg are on the SGS3. Anyone let me know?
Thanks!

Yes there are some lock screen settings there but in terms of changing what apps appear on the lockscreen and other type settings it appears that AT&T in their infinite wisdom has decided that's too many options to worry about. Don't want to confuse us users or anything.

Wow...so the reveiws I saw about adding/removing widgets to the lock screen is a moot point for us AT&T folks now...awesome.
How about modifying the apps that are available on the lock screen?
Maybe I'm blind or maybe someone smarter than me can figure it out but I think the only answer is we need root and maybe even need a custom rom to fix (I like to think of it as unbreak).

Is this on an AT&T branded S3? Cause I don't have any menu option "Shortcuts" on mine.
OK nevermind, I figured out why I can't see it. I had Swipe lock with secure lock checked off since I have secure lock turn on automatically every time I hit the power button. Didn't think there was any point in having to swipe twice, once on the dandelion and once on secure lock, but I do see occasionally see the lock screen when it times out without hitting power. Once I enabled swipe lock with secure lock Lock Screen Options went from a greyed out option (which I thought was a header) to a clickable one.

Thanks -that did it
It would be really cool if the camera shortcut would bypass the pattern unlock too. Either way, it is cool as soon as it unlocks the camera appears.
Has anyone tried the text shortcut where you bring the phone to your face and it calls them?

You can change the apps on the lock screen. Settings> security> lock screen options>shortcuts then follow the directions on the screen. I don't think you can have more than four apps on the lock screen, though.

It works from contact view, but it doesn't seem to work from Google Voice text, or messaging text. I'll keep messing with the settings to see if I can get it to work as in the european unboxing event.

Deactivating Lock Screen Swipe

Hi There,
I needed to set up a VPN on my Tab a while back that worked fine. Before I was able to set it up my Tab made me activate a lock screen swipe. I now no longer need the VPN and have deleted it but I can deactivate the swipe. Can anybody out there help. My settings menu doesen't seem to have a disable button.

Not sure what ROM you are running but if you go to setting, under interface or system (depending which ROM) there is a screen security setting, from there change to which ever lock screen you wish.
Not sure why the disable lock screen option isn't available to you, but you can use an app that disables it. I think these apps might require root, but I can't remember. Search the play store for an app called No Lock

Go to screen>lock screen, tap on screen lock, confirm your saved pattern. This brings up a page that gives you the various lock options.Hope this helps!

[Q] How To Disable Auto Factory Reset?

Just installed Moar Rom. Auto factory reset is automatically turned on in the lock screen options page and I am not able to disable it. I've searched the forums and did a lot of searching online but I have not been able to find any solution for this. By any chance does anyone have any advice on how to turn of this feature? Thank you!

I don't believe there is anything in there related to what I am trying to solve. If you go to Settings > Lock Screen, at the bottom there is a section titled Auto Factory Reset. I would like to turn this off.

Sorry, Yes I misunderstood. Have you checked security settings for Google and Samsung. I would say one of them is the reason it's greyed out.
I found that this setting was being controlled by my Exchange server at work. I had read online that this was something that Verizon had implemented, however it appears that is not the case here.

[Q] Just got the Yotaphone2, and two small annoying problems

Hi all,
intrigued by the phone and due to the fact that I'm an avid reader, I decided to go for it.
I'm still getting used to it but I've got two small annoying problems that I can't figure out if it's a device fault or else:
1) when two-finger typing, if I press two letters fast enough, it records it as a swipe gesture. Not a major thing, I can type slower than that, but it would be interesting to know if this is an issue specific with Lollipop or else.
2) I've enabled the pattern lock, but I can still unlock the phone without any pattern when sliding bottom-up the main screen. This is a bit more annoying, as when keeping the phone in the pocket it happens I get it unlocked by mistake and I thought the pattern lock would solve this.
Is this normal?
1. If that keyboard-swipe thing happens on the color screen, make sure you have disabled "Gesture typing" from the Google Keyboard settings (Settings - Language & input). Alternatively you can also try out some different keyboard app. If it happens on the EPD, then I guess you're out of luck.
2. Some other user reported that same issue with the slide-unlock, but I tried it just now and for me it asks for the pattern no matter how the screen is turned on.

hey and thanks for the reply.
1) I do use the gesture typing/swype keyboard as well as normal typing. My previous Nexus 4 had no problems no matter the speed I'm typing at. It's just on the main screen the EPD works fine and I'm kinda getting used to its laggines.
2) this is totally odd.. are you on Lollipop as well?
1. You could test some other keyboard app which supports Swipe. Although that does sound a bit that the system can't keep up with your typing and is flooded with touch events.
2. Yes, I'm on Lollipop. For me the slide-up just turns on the screen, and I need to swipe up again for the pattern entry screen to show up. It must be some specific combination of settings.
There are features called "smart lock" in the security settings that can bypass the pattern lock under certain conditions, maybe your set up is glitching and it may be worth poking around in there to see if something is set up.

Hi manmikey. I've checked and all the Smart Lock features are turned off, I've tried to play around a bit but can't really see anything out of place.
I currently have:
- screen lock: pattern
- lock second screen: on
- make pattern visible: off
- automatically lock: 5 secs unless kept unlocked by Smart Lock
- Power btn instantly locks: on
- Smart Lock: all off, but a very specific Sony speaker system
anything else that could impact this?
Might be just an Android bug?

I'm at a loss then, could it be a rouge "trusted face"? Maybe a blank face is in there! when the camera is looking for a face to unlock there is a symbol at the bottom centre of the screen that looks like a person in a circle, when defected the symbol changes to an open padlock, are you seeing anything like this when you swipe up to unlock?
Sent from my YD201 using XDA Free mobile app
there's no symbol: I can unlock the device (with the pattern lock active) just by swiping the main screen from the bottom center, up.
Just like that, and there's no screen in between the "turned off" state and the "android desktop".
I've checked and there are no registered friendly-faces in the smart lock, on top of it being off.

That use to happen to me but I think you have to wait a bit then it will ask for pattern or pin when unlocking

Front screen.
The back screen asks for the pattern when unlocking.

As you suggested, I've tried the factory reset, but nothing has changed.

Hi. First of all, sorry for my bad English. I bought the Y2 few days ago and I had the swype problem. I tried one thing and, maybe, it is a possible solution. Tell me if it works.
(I don´t know how are the exactly menu names)
Settings-Language & input-google keyboard (6th option)-advanced Options-delay to hold: change the number to a higer one.
It works??
I have another problem. Could you help me?
When I use the keyboard, in the bottom right there is a keyboard icon (It serves to switch the keyboard). When I swipe, I always press the icon with my thumb accidentally and I can´t write.
Is there any way to remove the icon from there?
Thanks!
