I was seraching for an easy way to unlock the screen since I have enforced lockscreen lock due to my exchange. There are ways to overcome it but I want to keep things safe.
Apps needed
1- Xposed installer
2-NFC screen lock
3-Llama
Steps
1- Install and activate Xposed
2- Install NFC screen lock mod and activate
3- Select option to have NFC on when screen off
4- Install Llama
5-Create event in llama to turn screen on with a nfc tag.
6-Scan tag.
The role of Llama is to turn the screen on after nfc screen lock mod unlocks it.
Hope this helps someone

i want to change the system lock pattern.
remove the auto keyguard,but only keep the fuction of screen auto dim,and i can use the phone directly no need to unlock.
Could anybody tell me the source code to built it?Many thanks!
Posted this in the LG section but have since rid of that phone for the S6.
I'm hoping to find a way to disable the lock screen when i'm at home or another trusted area, without the need for unnecessary GPS/Location usage as with what the 'smart lock' option demands. Also, without having to root the device.
On my S4 widgetsoid did this brilliantly right from the notification panel and it would coincide with the device locking features that were set.
For instance. Whenever i was home I'd disable by tapping the padlock icon. Then if i went out I'd just tap it again to enable it. If I forgot to enable it, the set time limit for the locking options would take control and eventually automatically lock the device on it's own.
Is there anything available like this? Widgetsoid needs system access for this feature to work now.
Hi,
i'm on OOS 5.1.6 with unlocked bootlader, official TWRP, and root via Magisk, also got xposed and a few modules (greenify being one of them).
Now the noob silly part: how comes that even if i set fingerprint security for lockscreen (with PIN security behind), if i turn off the screen via power button, and then wake it up (after more than 5secs!) with button again, i am presented with a lockscreen with no security and i can simply swipe up the lock icon and enter the phone?
I'm for sure missing something really obvious here, OR one of my modules (GB, Greenify) might interfere with the security?
Just to be clear: fingerprint unlocking WORKS flawlessly, but if i use the button it just shows the small lock icon that i can simply swipe-up.
Thanks!
Maybe you have enabled face unlock?
Do you have smart lock on? Trusted place or similar, smart watch etc. If one of those are on, it will let you unlock just with a swipe.
And the default time for this lock is 5 sec, see the settings icon right of display lock in settings - security
Thanks guys, i had for some reason Smart Lock enabled, and specifically trusted places (Home) taken from Google Maps. I could not disable it (well i could, but it reverted back as active) until i found under 'Trust Agents' Smart Lock (Google) and disabled it.
Weird.
Prevent instant lockscreen activation (Bring back "automatically lock after timeout")
Premise:
I moved from LineageOS to MIUI 11 since a couple of months and I was immediately bothered by having to unlock my phone every time, even if I used it one minute ago. I have face recognition and the fingerprint sensor is fast, but that doesen't help (trusted networks/devices neither in my case). Apparently, there is no option to lock the screen after a period of inactivity and the typical "solution" I've seen around was just disabling the lockscreen or using a third-party one.
So, after a bit of search I found an alternative, quite simple and yet a bit hidden.
It requires CustoMIUIzer (so yes, root, possibly with Magisk, and the EdXposed module) and Tasker.
In CustoMIUIzer you should go in System > Lock screen > Disable screen lock and select "Enable mod". If in the settings below you select "Disable completely" in "Disable screen lock" menu and turn on "Skip lock screen", when you will turn off and on your screen you will see that the lockscreen doesn't appear. You can put it back to "System default" but leave "Skip lock screen" enabled.
Now let's make this easier with Tasker, that has a plugin for CustoMIUIzer. The simplest way is making a button or shortcut in your launcher that you would press to disable and enable lockscreen manually when you want, without going everytime in CustoMIUIzer. The other way is automating the process with a couple of profiles (and tasks): the first one will trigger on display unlock, disable lockscreen and set a time (eg. 10min later) when the second one will trigger and enable lockscreen again. The second task could also be used to lock the screen manually.
For simplicity, I'll attach my files and screenshots. That's not necessarily the best setting, but it works well. I set the timeout to 10 minutes (in "lockOff", %TIMES+60*10). The task that disables lock ("lockOff") creates a toast notification when you turn on the screen, so you can remove the last three actions if everithing is working. Both profiles have to be active. Make sure that Tasker won't be killed by MIUI or battery savers, maybe lock it in recent apps.
Is it possible to have AOD lockscreen be the only lockscreen? Seems like I have to unlock the AOD and then unlock the regular lockscreen. I LIKE the AOD screen - can I configure it to be the only lockscreen?
Sorry if this is a stupid question - I'm a new Samsung user.

Firstly, i assume you prefer the AOD and the added security of a lockscreen.?
Otherwise,
easiest option, would be to disable lockscreen and set option to " None ".
In this case you would only have AOD if enabled ?
However, in this case, certain banking apps,
and maybe some other apps ? , that
require a lockscreen eg Fingerprint, Pin etc
won't work (non rooted device )
Security.
I would suggest, to enable AOD and fingerprints etc and in AOD you could enable fingerprint icon
to "show always" on AOD screen.?
Only concern is maybe "burn in" issues, on screen ?
Otherwise, you can set fingerprint icon to show if you lightly tap /press screen.
See screenshots.
So al you need is on AOD screen use fingerprint to go straight to your Device main screen..?
There might be some other options some other members use..?
However, your straightforward question was... can you use AOD as " only lockscreen."
My experience.... says no...!
but who knows... if you rooted..!
Good luck.
