id try either holding down the END Key and selecting Lock and see if that then turns it on with just a single tap on end key to lock. or go to settings, today, and on the items tab tick in the HTC Lock.

i tried, but there's no HTC Lock.
there's only device lock, but when i check the box for "Device lock", and press ok, no lock and when i go back to "Today", it unchecked itself.

Hello,
The exchange password policy was pushed to my phone after setting up my work e-mail. This is fine and does not bother me. I am having trouble figuring out how to enable the lock feature before the timeout period so that I can lock my phone whenever I want vs. waiting for the timeout period.
I have gone to settings and lock and it does lock the keys but does not require my password to unlock the phone. Is this how it is supposed to behave? Any idea on how I can lock the phone on demand to password protect my device?
Thank you all.
not sure what version you have but the Verizon Wireless TP2 when lock is enabled under Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock, it has Lock as the right softkey on the main screen.
I have the sprint version and when i go to Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock the phone goes into lock mode and has the keypad displayed for me to enter the password. The issue is though that I don't need to enter my password to unlock the phone. As long as I hit the unlock soft key on the bottom left hand side the phone unlocks itself. I believe it should require me to input my password and then hit unlock.
Just an fyi I do have a password setup on my phone and it does work as I expect it to when the phone times out after 15 minutes and locks itself automatically. I just want to be able to do this without waiting.
if u go to all setting, personal, buttons, then end key, you can choose to display a quick list by holding the end key where you can select to lock the phone or just lock the phone by holding the end key.
Thank you! That worked and it is prompting me for the password to unlock the phone just as I needed.
glad 2 help
As it is tweaked right now, pressing the rigth button is shutting the screen down, yet not locking the device, which is v. convenient.
However, sometimes I need to lock it, which right now is only accesible via start --> lock. So, what I am looking for is a way to lock the devide by pressing the right button twice (e.g. once only shuts it down, two locks it).
Can you help me?
If you leave it with the screen off for a while, it automatically locks..

It sounds like you've got the known issue where the end-call button does not lock the device.
It SHOULD do that - there's a fault that stops it happening.
After doing Start, Lock, the lock button will then lock the screen, as well as turning it off.
If it doesn't then I suggest you have some software on your phone that has altered what the button does.
Use AEBPlus - keyboard remap program - it's free.
For every one button you can assign action for single, double, triple and long keypresses.
In your case assign "Lock" for double press on red phone button.
I hope that this can help you.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it was some of BsB Tweaks' tweaks, dunno which tho, however I find it quite useful as it is. Will check out AEBplus, thx.
Is there a way to get the lock screen before the pattern screen?
for me, when i hit the wake button, it goes straight to the pattern screen. If i turn the pattern screen lock off, and i hit the wake button, it goes to the lock screen.
I just want it so that if i hit the wake button it would go lock screen then pass word pattern screen
Pretty sure you can only have one or the other.
That's weird. Mine always prompts the lock screen then my pattern screen. Thought this process was default.
Could try this. Go into settings>CM settings> lockscreen> unlock options
If skip on security is checked then uncheck it. That should prompt the lockscreen then pattern screen upon wake

Why do people assume that everyone is using CM. I am on Weapon and your answer means nothing.

One can only assume since cm is the majority. If you don't want assumptions then be specific on the details. General questions can arise numerous answers.
If I use a pattern as a security option and the click "automatically lock" after 30 mins, it doesn't do it, instead it ask for a patter every single time I turn off-on the screen.
Anybody has this issue?

If im not mistaken, this option is only valid when you let the screen switch off itself and not press the power button to lock the screen. try it out.

I think you are right, I wonder why Google did this weird feature. iOS, WebOS, WP, Custom skins like Blur, sense? have a properly delayed Security Lock.
You set X time, and the security lock will be show X mins after you finished used the device including pushing the power button.

Hello from France,
Same question for me!
I have a Mate 8, and I chose "password:none" in "settings/screen lock & passwords". But when I use the powerbutton to turn the screen OFF and ON, it still ask me to slide. Is it possible to remove this useless page?
Go to settings menu -> Advanced Settings -> Security -> 'Power button instantly locks'... (should be at the bottom of the page)
I have unchecked this option, so that when i press the power button it just switches screen off and does not lock.
I have additionally set the option next to it "Automatically lock", to 5 Minutes.. (So that i am presented with password lock screen after some time of inactivity, the time before that the power button will just switch on/off screen)
Note that these options are only available if you have set either a password, PIN, etc.
thank you !!!

How can I remove password from a Huawei mate 8
So I thought Id try this as I would also love to just press the power button and the main screen pops up (no lock screen) so I added a pin and unchecked Power button instantly locks, but this only means that it wont lock from the power button it will lock from between 1 min to 30 min after sleep.
The problem is that now when I try to put the password back to none its grayed out and faint writing saying "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage" ive added and taken out the pin a few times in the past whilst using (or not) the fingerprint scanner, so why now can I not undo it ?
im on NXT-DL00 17B368
EMUI 4.1
Hope someone can help me
During the "Factory reset" process I don't "ok" the "password" or "finger print" options.
I never have the "lock screen" show up

I bought a Mediapad T3 with the same useless page. Enable Developer Options, under that there's an option "Screen Lock". Disable that, and then the display won't be locked with the requirement to swipe to unlock (which is useless, except for notifications).
Hello!
How/where did you enabled the "Developer Options" in Android 7.0/EMUI 5.1?
Thank you in advance!

If you asking about where "screen lock" under developer option in android 7 So there is no screen lock under developer options maybe in android 6!
How to disable lock screen
You can disable lock screen with apps like No Lock (BoD).
This works with my Honor 8 (Nougat)
Don't use PIN code or pattern lock.
