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.

I have a 10minute delay until the pattern lock screen pops up but what if i wanted to lock the screen right away instead of waiting the 10 minutes, is there a widget or LaucherPro shorcut method to do this?
Go into settings then security and you can reset the delay time

i don't want to reset the delay. i want to keep the 10min delay and have the option to press something to immediately lock the phone.
Yes - found what your looking for!

Yes there is thank goodness. I wanted this myself - tired of pressing the power button to lock the screen. The widget is called Lock Screen Widget from the marketplace. Enjoy - I know I did.
i tried that widget but it doesn't work. just turns the screen off.
i should note that i'm also using "Lock Delay" but even with Lock Delay uninstalled, the Lock Screen widget doesn't work for me.
A lot of people are saying that Lock Delay doesn't work with 2.2 but i'm not having any problems aside from the lock pattern coming up at random times but thats ok, it's only once a while.
pressing the power button works fine for me it locks the screen
we all have different configurations though:
I have Lock Delay to accomplish the following:
1. Pattern Lock only comes on after 10minutes of inactivity
2. Pressing Power button to turn the screen off and then on again will not show the Slide To Unlock screen
This way If i'm going to use the phone on and off during a short period of time (10 minutse), I won't have to keep bothering with sliding to unlock the screen every time i turn the display on.
By default the slide to unlock screen always comes up.
Hmmm. Works for me

Thats exactly what i was thinking lol. As far as the OP idk. i know there are widgets that can turn the lock pattern on and off so if you were to turn off the delay and use that widget that kinda solves your problem
Try switch pro widget

that's what a lot of people have probably but the problem that i see with that is that you have to slide to unlock and pattern unlock EVERY time you turn the display back on. am i correct? because i currently have Lock Delay (app) that disables both slide and pattern locks during the first 10 minutes so i don't have to mess with them every time i want to use the phone.
SwitchPro doesn't work, it only brings me to the unlock settings screen, pressing back will cancel out of the lock.
Lock screen widget works for me

switch pro widget has that option and many more for the power widget
Is there a way to bypass the swipe up lock screen after initially turning the screen on and going directly to the pattern lock screen? Annoying to have to unlock twice. Automatically did this when enabling pattern lock on my previous phone.
Any apps for this?

if you disable the sense lock screen you will have my problem... where there is still a 'slide to unlock' screen to which you cannot get rid of either... you can try a program 'antilock' and set it to skip the lock screen... but it kind of swipes the screen for you and you still see the screen then it dissappears
painful i know but this kind of just how it is
As above there isn't much you can do about it with the stock sense rom. Sense just isn't designed that way. Rejoicing the sense lock screen replaces it with the aosp one and also breaks the alarm clock.
On the other hand Cyanogenmod lets you disable the lock screen when pattern lock is enabled and many other lock screen customizations. If you aren't into rooting your phone its not really an answer though.

Thanks guys. I am rooted, but no mods for this yet...
I too would like to remove lock screen so it can go straight to lock pattern. if you remove htclockscreen.apk you cant see who is calling you until you unlock screen. I think I read somewhere its because there no aosp roms out there for the sensation yet.
cant wait for cm on sensation...

Look in the edit build promp thread in dev section set the associated press menu to unlock string to true ans reboot.. Then just press the menu button which will rid the slide to unlock page almost instantly thereby allowing for faster access... I find it the best work around for now

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.

I just upgraded from the iPhone 4S to the Skyrocket so this is my first Android phone. One of the concerns I have is that I am noticing an inconsistency with the Screen Saver and the Lock Screen. I have no option to disable the screen saver but I do have the Lock Screen configured with a pin code. Sometimes, when I pick up the phone and press the power button, I have the pin code screen which is what I expect. Other times, when I pick up the phone and press the power button, I get the Screen Saver with the clock and I can simply flick it aside and I'm into the phone without a pin code.
The Screen Timeout is configured to "2 Minutes" and Screen Unlock Timeout is configured for "2 Minutes." Am I configuring the timeout(s) incorrectly? I don't want to ever have the Screen Saver come up, I just want the pin code Unlock screen to display.
Set it for 15 seconds. And yes you can change the "screen saver".
Haha, never mind! After reading the "Unlock Screen" timeout more carefully, it is the time after the screen goes blank! I thought it meant that in "2 Minutes" of inactivity, the lock screen would be active! Setting it to immediately and then configuring the Screen Timeout seems to have fixed it!
Good. And you can change the lockscreen wallpaper too fyi

I'm loving it already! So many options that I have control over! I just need to learn how to use them! Looks like my son's option to upgrade to the iPhone 4S is going to be used to get me the Samsung Note and I'll give him my 4S since I spent my upgrade option on this SkyRocket!!
I prefer not to shimmy up the phone to reach the power button, and have it set up so a double tap on the back key turns the screen off. However, they do not shoe up on the lock screen. So I have to enter the pattern then turn the screen off. Does anyone know a mod or widget you can place on the screen in the lock screen to turn the display off?
Thanks
Viper ROM has that sort of option. I don't use Xposed, but I believe it does as well.

If you're willing to flash a custom kernel, Evolution's kernel has swipe to sleep feature (swipe right to left on the bottom of the screen to turn it off, works on lock screen.)

If you are using the stock LockScreen, double tapping anywhere on the display will turn the screen off. If you are using a replacement LS you can get an Xposed module that turns the screen off with a double tap on the status bar.
