I want to use a PIN (and need to really for my work email exchange account) - how can I also use the standard CM11S lockscreen with it?
The idea being to slide that down, and then get the PIN screen pop up?
I cannot see an option or combination for it in the default settings, so any ideas?
I'm rooted and TWRP'd up, so happy to flash a mod if anyone can suggest one?
When you select PIN you enter the PIN first and then the screen automatically slides down.

Yeah I just want to see the standard lockscreen first, then enter the PIN, so that I get the equaliser and camera widget etc.
Right now I just get the plain old PIN entry screen when I turn the screen on, I found the minimise pin entry button, but that just gives the padlock icon at the bottom of the screen to drag up which isn't very cool!
I actually don't think you can edit that. I know there is an Xposed Module that allows you to have the quick circle, and THEN your password/pin/pattern, but that is for the stock Android lockscreen and not CM11s lockscreen, so I would assume that won't work. The lockscreens are the most difficult things to customize for whatever reason.

It seems they've changed quite a bit in the lockscreen; there still isn't an option to do what we want though.
Oh well, can't have it all I guess.
Indeed, but what i hope is with android L they will update the lockscreen to have notifications built in and allow a secure lockscreen with their design, that would be ace ! :victory:

With Secure Settings (and Tasker) it will do pattern lock. I am doing this. The only difference between KK and L with secure settings is you have to go into the spanner icon > Pattern unlock method [4.1+] > Lock Settings (Experimental)

I read somewhere (can't recall where) that, that is supposed to happen. You have to unlock first with pin/pattern then it should take affect but I too have only had this happen a couple times. The rest of the times it just simply unlocks.

Hmm. With the new experimental feature you mean?
But what I mean is it is broken sometimes. Doesn't accept the pattern. It shows the pattern path as correct and just hangs there, not unlocking, until I off and on the screen.
use the new play service apk and set location

Do you have Secure Settings?
And in secure setting do you have System+ Module enabled and set up as Device Admin?
What me and @rootSU were talking about is just a, you can say a bug, where the pattern is complete but it just hangs to unlock.You can see the pattern (Which I think sucks because someone else can see if you just leave your phone on that screen) but it just stays there. You lock your phone again and upon swiping the regular slide lock, there shouldn't be any prompt anymore and it should work fine after that.
I know using Tasker alone cause a lot of error like not disabling lock screen at all and just a blank screen sometimes.

Sent from my Nexus 5
HI there,
Upgraded my Z3 to lollipop 2 days ago and, from all things that are currently annoying me, the new lock screen is, by far, the best (or worst).
There are two things that I can´t get along:
First, even while locked, you might swipe your finger down and get access to a menu with wifi, bluetooth and other switches (including airplane mode), being able to disable communications completely without a password. I find that disturbing, not to say a vulnerability. Is there a way of completely disabling this menu while locked? I do not want to root the phone.
The other thing is the act of unlocking the phone itself. Before lollipop, It would take 2 taps, a password and the enter (ok). Now, they introduced a swipe up to reveal the dialpad, so I can enter the PIN. Is it possible to change this? I want to be able to unlock it faster... also without having to root it...
Thanks in advance!
For your second point about quick access to the homescreen change the lockscreen to just swipe in security settings
With just swipe is the same, and you can acces also Settings and that' s not so good.

Again, not true.
I have it set to just swipe, and when I swipe I go straight to my homescreen, no dialpad for a PIN or dots for a pattern.
However, initially I had to have either a pattern or a pin. To disable this just remove all credentials. I had none before I upgraded but after upgrade I had to clear them in order to be able to have the option for just swipe on the screen lock

I have it set to Just Swipe and I can acces all from notification bar.
I think we are talking at cross purposes here, apologies for the confusion, I will edit my original post
Yes, you can access the notification bar from the lockscreen no matter what the options for screen lock are.
I was replying about the second point, which was that he has to swipe the lockscreen AND use a PW/PIN to get to the homescreen.
Yes, I just realized. Sorry too for the confusion.
At least it' s all clear now for everyone.
His post had two points, one about notification bar and a swipe to unlock.
All good now, as I confirmed that the notification bar is not so secure.
Hi there!
Thanks, but swiping is not an option... The device is encrypted, so I have only the PIN and password options, unfortunately...

Is there an app that will shut my screen off? I used one but it forces me to use a pin even if I use the fp reader
What's so difficult about a short press on the Power Button? Or change the Settings / Display / Sleep to less than the default 5 minutes.
In Settings / Fingerprint ID / Fingerprint Management (you will need your PIN here) is Unlock Screen set to On (blue with the circle on the right)?

I actually don't like using the hardware button to close screen. On my previous phone I would double tap to close screen but setting up that action with my launcher conflicts with fingerprint reader. While I normally don't use a flip case I bought one on a lark for my Mate 9. Mine (by Qialino) will close your screen automatically when you close the flap and the fingerprint reader works fine when you open it. You can bend the flip cover back and it will support the phone in landscape although it depends on the surface as it is not really designed for that..

Nothing, but Mate 9 is first mobile what I have what this not have. I about 3years not use power button on my mobiles(G2, G4). And I not use power button to wake up. LG have double tap like standard. Not this.... May be better made widget to lock from floating circle.

I see, sorry. I've never had a phone that didn't need a press on the power button to lock. I had a look at a couple of apps since reading our post - they needed the PIN on wake, which negates the value.
I shall head to the Huawei site and suggest this (putting th ephone face down to lock) for their next update. At present, they suggest you use the "floating dock" to lock your phone without pressing the power button.
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/faqs/detail/index.htm?id=121864
Why does fingerprint unlock fail after I lock the screen with a third-party app?
Cause : For security reasons, the fingerprint unlock service does not allow third-party apps to access your fingerprint data.
Solution : Use the lock button in the floating dock, or press the power button to lock the screen.

You can enable the floating dock by swiping down with two fingers - it is one of the quick toggles.

Yes I wrote this. But no one click lock. ZTE Z11 have simple lock screen widget. Huawei have floating circle and double click lock screen. It's not user friendly. But at least something. I very often working from my car. It's not user friendly to lock screen by floating circle by Huawei.
Latest Chinese rom B165SP01 has a default widget to lock screen now. Just have to wait for Huawei to update for other regions if they decide to port the function over.
Huawei added it after a lot of Chinese users complained on the forums. I guess they do look on the Chinese forums and read feedbacks.

Ah yes! What a silly place to put a widget! Actually, the reason I didn't see it is that it does not appear on my page of widgets for my launcher (Total Launcher). I checked and it did work with the default launcher as well as Nova.
Is there a way to import that widget to the us version?
A single tap icon to turn off screen would be great. The floating thing is cumbersome. There is a power bar widget in the UK phone but it only turns off wifi etc. There's a reboot widget too. The bit in the middle is missing.
The external app I tried took from 3 up to 15 seconds to fully switch off : it clears the screen immediately but the screen isn't actually off, just very nearly so. In that time, nothing responds.

It is part of System UI. Using quickshortcutmaker, it shows as com.android.systemui/com.huawei.keyguard.onekeylock.OneKeyLockActivity

I think I found a way to shut the screen off by double tap with this app
I must be missing something but hell if I can figure out how to launch the camera from the lockscreen.
Used to be able to do it with a double power button click on my S8 but on my VZW Pixel 3 it brings up the code unlock first. I find that there are many times I just want to take a quick shot without having to unlock the phone.
For that matter, does Pie offer lockscreen widgets at all?
Thanks for your help.

But to the OP, something is clearly wrong as this feature is turned on by default on Pixel devices. Try a factory reset. You can backup your phone to your computer using the adb backup and restore commands.
Did you select Camera as default app when launching with the phone unlocked? The first time it will give you the "open with" dialog. For me it was Camera and Snapchat. I selected camera and always, and now can launch camera from anywhere.

No, it'll work. You can't view pictures taken before using the camera unless you unlock

Works for me with pattern lock, don't use pin.
Just go to the camera settings then scroll down and turn on Quick launch
Enter your pin, and select one of your camera apps as "always" then it'll allow you to skip the pin when you double tap. ?

I hope by now the problem has been resolved, I was also looking out how to access the camera from the lock screen and it turns out (thanks to advice from friends not from anything I found from the many internet searches) that if you click the power button twice the camera pops up. You can check this by going to Settings- System - Gestures - Jump to Camera.
Hello,
I have tried every option to show the Notifications on the LockScreen either with Details or only the icon with no success!!!!!
Is it designed that way? I didn't think so but this is what I am finding out
One more thing,
When I pause the song/podcast via my Wireless headphones, I need to unlock the device so the audio will continue after i press play?
Is it the same issue? that once the screen is locked the device basically is cut off?

Hmm kinda weird what music player are you using that it won't show on your lockscreen for me Spotify works fine on my lockscreen.
I use Podcasts Addict and Spotify as well,
But both of them and ALL ALL other applications are not showing.
PS: I noticed that the Screen Lights up when I receive anything but it doesn't show up;
I need to Unlock the device to see from which application and what the details of it.
