My bad had the wrong one!

No problem man
I've had the s6 and the lock screen would actually set the way you wanted. I've set up my fingerprints and set the lock screen type to fingerprints, but it still shows the stupid "swipe screen to unlock" lock screen and ignores the fingerprint setting. I checked the smart lock settings and none of those are active. Any ideas what to try next?
Use your finger. Don't swipe.

Settings > Quick Settings > Lock screen and security > Secure lock settings > Secured lock time > Instantly with the power key or when the screen times out
Basically it is defaulted to not lock the phone until it has been off for 10 minutes, meaning you do not need to use the fingerprint to unlock it if you have recently done so.
Set it as I said and you will be required to use fingerprints every time (or a pin, pattern, or whatever secondary method you chose) and it will unlock directly to your homescreen.

Really? Why did you bother with that?
On the off chance you're being serious and not thread-crapping, the screen will only unlock via swipe. no matter the actual setting, it still acts like swipe is the lock screen setting.

THANK YOU! That is possibly the stupidest, least secure default setting they could have chosen! I like Samsung, but they make it hard sometimes. How stupid. Thanks!
I am having same problem & have my phone set to lock immediately. Frustrating bcuz I want that security feature & it's not working.
update: smart lock and my gear fit watch together, were the culprit
Take off all lock options on your s7... then download gesture lock screen from the play store and set it up. It gets rid of the swipe and you can also customize it a lot more. I just got the s7 and was about to return it, especially after seeing so many threads with this problem, but gesture lock screen works perfect for me. Good luck.
Was having the same issue. Would ask for swipe motion after locking if I attempted to use phone by pressing home screen button. As soon as I disabled Bluetooth it started to prompt for finger print again.
it works...

Thanks S7EdgeGirl, it worked fine after I turned off my bluetooth option...now its asking me for the finger print to UNLOCK..
Crazy..........................
thaks a lot..this helped me out...
Issue for me was the Samsung smart watch was listed as a trusted device in Smart Lock. Turn this off and now it locks immediately as intended.
Hey guys, i have finally got the solution!!!! It is happening because of the smart lock option. Please disable it. What smart lock does is, when u unlock the device it remains unlocked until its with you for emergency kind of thing. If you disable smart lock it will prompt you for entering pattern or any other which you have set. Thank you....

I have the same problem with c9pro
Guys please help. I already set my pattern and fingerprints lock in my c9pro but when i locked and immediately switch on the screen, my phone can unlock using swipe only
I already set Lock screen setting > secure lock setting > lock instantly with power key is ON
But still only need swipe to unlock
What should i do?
Thanks
My s7 stuck on swipe. BT off set for fingerprints initially restated phone went through "new" security measures then after first fingerprint opening reverts to swipe. Changed to no security restarted then 're set up still no good. Figuring it was fingerprints changed to pin set up still works as swipe....frustrating
Hello,
On my old phone I had an option to put a personalized message on the lockscreen, for example, to call this number if someone find this phone.
Is there a way to do the same on the OP5? I have substratum with a couple of modules but I haven't figure out how to do it.
Use "Lock screen message" in Settings > Security & fingerprint > cogwheel on screen lock

Hi
Currently, when my screen is locked I can pull down the notification bar and enable/disable wi-fi etc. Can I disable this notification panel when its locked?
I'm not talking about "Quick-open Notification Panel" option under home settings. When my phone is locked, i want that to be 100% locked so that others wont be able to enable/disable data/wifi etc etc.
Is it possible?
Settings / lockscreen / lockscreen settings.
You just have to check "lock network and security"
(Something like that, my phone is in french)

Thanks i see that now and it's already enabled.. but its still not restricting the slide down panel. I locked my phone and now the finger print prompt is there, and i can still slide down the notification panel.. can you give it a try and let me know if its actually working? im talking about when the screen is on, but locked. not standby/always on display mode.
On my G955F, you can still pull down the notification panel, but you can't check or uncheck anything, except the torch.
