Hi developers,
I need some help. If it is possible, please acknowledge ASAP. Thanks in advance.
My phone: LG Optimus E975 international version, ROM is official, rooted.
I have activated email exchange account(corporate), so it automatically set encryption on device and I can unlock the screen only with PIN or Password. It disables screen lock options: Swipe, Face Unlock, Pattern (In description there is written: "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage").
I want to use my phone's Swipe/Face/Patthern screen unlock features as before.
I found an app[SkipLock] in playstore
but it enables Swipe options only when WiFi is enabled and only with predefined networks.
Can anybody advice any other app which has similar functionality, but without dependency of WiFi, just always enable Swipe option.
I've searched on playstore, google, etc. and didn't find what I needed.
Thanks,
Hayk

Hi,
I just installed VPN software on my Moto X 4.4. Upon starting it, it pops up ""Type the password for credential storage". I've never set up such passowrd. No matter what I type, it will reject and ask again.
I searched a bit. One suggest is to enter 5 times to get it clear thes storage. Does it and no change. Another is to set the screen lock to none and it will ask to set up the screen lock and etc. Did not work either.
Is there any way to get over this one?
Thanks
Same Struggle

Struggling with the same on my S5 - any assistance will be greatly appreciated
vpn only works with some form of lock enabled: activate a pattern lock, leave it enabled, and try entering the vpn menu again.
Hello. After I installed this certificate (lrz.de/services/netz/mobil/vpn/anyconnect/rootcert.crt) I am no longer able to use knock code as a screen lock method. I found out that the name of the certificate is Deutsche Telekom Root CA 2 and disabled it from the trusted credentials menu, but I am still not able to select knock code in the lock screen -> select lock; the options Swipe and Knock Code are white and cannot be selected (It says disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage)
Any help would be much appreciated
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. I see you've posted this question here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/lg-g3-knock-code-screen-lock-method-t3112921 That is the best place to ask. In the future, please avoid posting the same question in multiple areas. I'm going to close this thread.
I am randomly getting
"Device Administrator Locked Device"
when I try to unlock my phone with finger or swipe unlock
Anyone else experience this issue.
Been like this from Day one.
You can see an example of normal pin lock and this other random device locked screen for reference
Thank you.
No I don't have this.
You may want to check under Settings > Advanced Settings > Security > Device Administrators

So my Dad uses a Galaxy Note 10 Plus. He works at a high level judiciary position i cant mention, so information stored on his phone are govt. classified stuffs. Security is very vital.
He is almost 70 , so memorising pins and password is not his thing.
Therefore he uses Face Unlock/Face ID feature and Fingerprint scanner for unlocking phone and securing his apps.
But this morning, for God knows what reason, his phone can ONLY by unlocked via GESTURE PATTERN.
The thing is, Dad never uses gesture pattern, he must have set it when he first recieved the phone from the govt. He doesnt recall the gesture anymore.
All the officials have been trying their luck with the gesture unlock to no avail.
He needs to recover his phone data fast.
Is there a way for him to unlock his phone using face ID, fingerprint, or even email authorisation or something like that??
As far as I know, after you've tried many times, you will get a messages "Forgot pattern" on the lower left corner of your lock screen. Touch Forgot pattern and enter Google Account info to clear the lock.
Just hope he can still remember the password for the google account!
Just keep on trying until the phone starts asking you for the account (mail) and it's password.
Use the account data (password) to unlock the phone.
It is possible that his employer has the phone under MDM (Mobile Device Management). That is very common on mobile devices that access secure information from an employer. It allows them to control settings on the phone. If so, they may be the ones that changed the settings and they also may be able to unlock the phone.
Hi XDA peoples. I come to you in times of great need, and to satisfy your curiosity.
Recently, my mother enabled biometrics on her discover banking app, specifically face ID. However, this enabled face unlock on the entire phone and, in doing so, set a password for the phone. Note, there was no password or any other authentication on this phone before - completely open device. Now she is completely locked out of the device due to the default security settings requiring a password every 4 hours. Remote unlock is disabled, so there is no hope of that working.
Now, my question is this: is there a password that the device would automatically apply if needed? And if so, does anybody know what it is?
Thanks.
Device is a T-mobile S21+, 8G RAM 128GB Storage.
I appreciate all help.
