Cant choose Lockscreen Security

Hi there
Why Im not able to chose the methode for my Lookscreen. I only can chose PIN or Password..
Check out the Screenshot (its in German but yeah whatever..)
It says its disabled...
Im using a Custom ROM...

Probably because you have a vpn configured or something like that.

Nope.. I didnt set up any VPN connections or anything else...

This is the translation in english:
Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage.
So you either installed an app that forces this, you encryped your device, a setting you set on or something similair.
It can be multiple things.

how to disable lte ipv6

I have unlocked and installed magisk, I can't change apn in the settings, use script to disable ipv6 but immediately restore the default.

You can create a new APN maybe? I was not able to edit the T-Mobile APN that loads automatically with the SIM card, but I could create another one to tweak things like that

I also thought of this method, but due to system reasons, apn will only select the first access point by default and cannot be changed, so this method is invalid.

Ah ok, I wonder why you are not able to select a different APN? When I create a new one, I am able to click the circle next to it and have the phone switch to that one.

Because of system bugs, I used China Telecom's sim card.
I use a script to disable ipv6
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/rmnet_data1/disable_ipv6
But I found out
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/rmnet_data1/disable_ipv6
The value has changed back to 0

...just curious, what's wrong with ipv6? I enabled both of them, 4&6.

Ipv6 has no problems, but the environment I use is a bit special, so I need to disable ipv6

I have found a way to use
Echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/remnet_data1/accept_ra
Echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/remnet_data1/disable_ipv6
Then restart lte

Obviously, they're just the options for you to turn off (that are on by default, which means, even without developer options on, they're still on in the background).

any help here?

Help with what? You have been given the answer.

If you don't want that option appears you have to do a factory reset and never activate it I guess.

that's the same as disable it in About phone > Dev options, since it resets any modification (such as ADB Debugging).

Yeah but what I understand is that he doesnt want to see never more that option.

If you are rooted:
1. use a file manager like Mixplorer
2. go to /data/system/users/0/
3. open settings_global.xml file in a text editor
4. search for "development_settings_enabled", it will find a line with value=1 (if you did enable dev options, obviously)
5. change the value to 0
6. reboot
Remember that before you change the line, you have to set all the settings you want, don't disable Dev Options, then follow the steps I said. Reboot and the settings you enabled before will keep, but Developers Options will hide.
If your device isn't rooted, unfortunately I can't help you.
I confirm it's working since I disabled animations and they kept disabled after reboot.

[ASK] How to change the owner's name?

Since I updated this phone to the latest Pie, the name of the owner that located in settings > system > about phones changed to a number 2. I don't have any idea why this can be happened.
Anyone have any suggestion to change it? Should I factory reset my phone?

full tablet encryption possible?

Hi there,
is it possible to encrypt the tablet using the stock rom? Can't find the option in the settings, only to encrypt the sd card.

It's encrypted by default:
Settings >> Biometrics & Security >> Other Security Settings >> Strong Protection

Maybe they meant FDE rather than just the FBE that most new devices use?

No, the encryption of Galaxy Tab S5e is definitely File-based one (FBE) because no Secure Startup menu is available...
or just type getprop ro.crypto.type in Termux and you can see the answer (file)

Yeah, most new devices are FBE. My thought was the OP was asking for a way to enable FDE. However you could be right FBE confuses some users as they don't realize the device is still encrypted as it doesn't ask for a password on boot.

I've got FDE on my S9, didn't know FBE existed. Thanks for clarifying things for me!
