[Q] Stock Rom - Keyguard Functionality - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

When I turn the screen off it does not require me to swipe when I unlock the screen it just goes to main screen. I would like to have swipe to unlock when I turn the screen or my screen turns off. The only way I know around this is to enable security and then enable the swipe to unlock but then I have to use both swipe and the security code at the same time.
Anyone know a way I can use both but not at the same time.
I want to be able to turn off my screen then it use the keyguard swipe to unlock as well as when the security timer goes off to enable that as well. Thanks in advance. I am running stock.

[Q] Bypass lockscreen and go to pattern lock

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

wake screen

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.

[Q] Jelly Bean Lock Screen - Allow slide and pattern?

I just updated from Gingerbread to Jelly Bean. In GB I had the pattern set on the lock screen. After I input the pattern, it would require me to swipe to unlock. At the time I thought this was annoying that I had to do both.
With Jelly Bean, the lock screen shows the weather and calendar as well as allowing me to swipe in different directions to access different apps. I love this new feature. However, I also want my phone to be secured so I would like to have the pattern security on. Ideally when pressing the power button I would be presented with the "slide" lock screen with the calendar/weather and choice of sliding a direction for apps. Then when I slide to unlock or go to an app, it would ask for the pattern security before letting me in. This would allow me to secure the phone and entire directly where I want to go. It would also allow me to quickly see the weather info or calendar without entering a pattern first.
Does anyone know if this is possible to do? I love the slide lock screen options, but I feel the need to secure the phone with a pattern/pin/password as well.
It pretty much works just like you described. The only exception being that after you enter the pattern lock you don't have to swipe.

I know, but I'd like to have the swipe screen there first. That way I can swipe directly into an app and/or see the calendar/weather before I have to draw the pattern. So when I press the power button, I'd like to be presented with the swipe screen first, then after swiping to an app or to unlock, it would ask me to supply the pattern/password/pin. That way, I would get the advantages of the swipe screen and the security of the pattern/password/pin.
I'm just wondering if there is a way to force it to work like this, but I'm guessing there isn't.

Lock screen issues

I am running a stock un-rooted note 5 . my issue is that I have to Swipe up on the lock Screen and use the fingerprint to unlock but I only want to use the fingerprint . Any idea HOW to do this?
Please search next time. You have smart lock activated. If you have a lock icon on you lock screen, your phone is not secure. Just swipe anywhere but from that icon and your phone unlocks. If you swipe from the lock icon, then you are securing it for the next time you turn the screen on. To change the smart lock setting, go to settings > lock screen and security>secure lock settings> smart lock.
The thing is I already searched and could not find anything on this. Also smart lock is not turned on. If I wipe it's either use finger print or pin if it can't read my print after a few tries. My phone will not unlock from just a swipe it has to be a pin or password. I don't want to swipe at all but just use a finger print.
I figured it out the thread can be closed.

Any way to get rid of Swipe To Open when it's unlocked

I use SMART LOCK and FINGERPRINT scanner but even when my screen says it's unlocked by smart lock I still have to swipe up to get to my home screen. Is there any way around this? I was afraid I was going to miss the rear finger print scanner that would just instantly get me to my home screen after picking up my phone correctly. Thanks
I think the only way to do that is with facial recognition. I know there's an option for that security to unlock/swipe the screen after it recognizes your face.

I didn't setup smart lock yet, but I do have fingerprint setup. When screen is black, I put my registered finger to the right spot and phone unlocks and goes to home screen
There's an option for face unlock
For smart unlock, I'm afraid that that's not possible since that swiping is the only thing protecting your phone to be accidentally while walking/running or whatever you are doing those moments.
This can be done with Face Unlock

You can also set up "Unlock with S Pen remote" - pressing the S pen button will turn the phone on and bring the last screen you visited.

go to your phone settings, search for face recognition and turn off "Stay on Lock Screen"
