I just installed Nexusmod 4 on my SG2 and im wondering if theres anyway to have the option of having the screen lock with swiping one way, and have it mute / set to vibrate if i swipe it the other??

is there a program out there that can slide to lock a phone? scenario:
i want to change my screen settings to almost the max so while im surfing the net and get pulled away from my phone for a few seconds the screen doesnt darken and fall asleep on me. BUT if i do that, then when i get off a call and put the phone in the case i run the risk of buttons accidentally getting pressed. so i want the option to slide to lock when i want. i dont think slide to unlock gives you that option.
What's wrong with just pressing the power button?
I use S2U2, set to lock when I press it - works perfectly.

Try ultimate launch. I have it set to use the gesture of a downward swipe to lock my phone. You can use it on all the sides of the cube or just one. I have it set to just the home side
Does anyone know how to adjust the lockscreen timeout?
Once the phone is locked and you turn the screen on it goes black again after 5 seconds.
The reason why I need to change it is because I have assigned a lock gesture to turn on the flashlight. When the screen goes black so does the flashlight.
Apart from other people asking the same question (with no answers) I found this thread a thread for HTC EVO 4G (MIUI rom).

I don't use this particular ROM, but it sounds like a "Floating Notifications" app. Check your applications if it's there.

the blue circle is called halo. if you dont like it disable it
i dont run this but check through the optinos you should be ablet o change to the lockscreen wallpaper.
some roms allow slider targets some dont. check through the settings.
Under settings/interface you'll find where you can disable halo, if it remains on the screen after disabling, double tap it holding on the second tap, then drag it to the red x at the top, then also in settings, you'll find lock screen options, it should be self explanatory in there
When I turn the screen on to check notifications and i expand a notification: text, facebook message, etc..
Even while my finger is touching the screen the screen turns off. This occurs both in power save mode and with power save mode turned off.
Its quite annoying, especially if i just want to read real quick what an email says.
Anyone else getting this?
Nope. Try doing a hard reset
Tried a second s6 and resetting the device. I get the same thing. I also have the unlock effect turned off.
My phone is also giving me problems on the lockscreen. I don't have an unlock effect either so I'm thinking be the problem. I notice when I turn on any other option my problem goes away. It just darkens my wallpaper to almost black. Did a hard reset as well.
I also noticed a huge lag when i tap a notification and then try to unlock. I'm also unable to double tap a notification on lock screen to open that specific app.
I tried using the buble unlock affect and still get the same problem. turn on screen->expand notification of given app while still holding my finger on the screen, then seconds later screen turns black

I see what you're saying about holding the finger on the screen and it still times out. Is it not like this on other lollipop phones, this is my first go with lollipop so I don't know? ...No lag for me, and I can tap then unlock and I'm in the app asap.

Well maybe its cause i came from an AOSP rom on my Lg g2 but i would think if your finger it touching the screen it should stay on anyways.
I wish i could just double tap the notification and it opens the app versus tapping the notification and then having to swipe to unlock.
the lag when trying to unlock after tapping the notification is a little, its not instant like how it would when tapping on a heads-up notification

I just tried again...If you swipe down on the notification to read it, it should go up to like another screen (not literally) but the notification slides up basically were the clock and weather would be. There it doesn't time out until the screen time out you have set under display is reached, and you can read the other notifications too. What you are doing is pulling down the notification without letting go then it times out. Swipe the notification and let go of the screen.

I don't care for the 'Always on Display' that Samsung and LG have implemented in their phones the last year. To me it seems absolutely useless, because it's not interactive and can't tap a notification to reply from the lockscreen. I much prefer Motorola's way they did their 'Active Display', I think that's the better way to do something like that. But whatever
Is it possible to disable AoD, and turn the screen on by Double Tap 2 Waking ? And then swipe up like other Android phones to enter the home screen ?
If I get a text, I want the screen to turn on, and be able to reply to that text from the lockscreen, is that possible on the S8 ?
You can double tap the home button to wake from the lock screen

Does that need AoD on for just the home button ?

Needs AoD and that only takes you to the lock screen. You can hard press the home button on AoD to get right to the home screen.

Can reply to text notifications from the lock screen ?
No. But you can get a lock screen app that will allow you to do this. Here is one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.floatify

You can install "glimpse notifications" app free from playstore with allmost zero battery consumption ... With that you deactivate AOD and everytime you receive a notification the screen light up to see the notification on lockscreen.
Don't forget to activate led bling light to work together and put all the apps that you want to light up your screen to "white list"
Also, the long press home screen works on both AoD and the regular lock screen, if you turn off AoD.
Galaxy S8+ Black
Hard pressing the home button while screen is off (AOD off) also works.
