I have my screen set to automatically lock at 5 minutes. This is the same time interval as my screen timeout.
If the screen is on and I press the power button to turn the screen off and then on again, this is the "Swipe to Unlock Screen". I have not been able to find a way to turn off txt message preview on this screen. This functionality was in Lollipop on the ATT Galaxy S5 and I cant believe that it did not make the S6.
Additionally, I cannot find a way to turn off txt message preview on the ticker bar on the top of the screen.
Security on this phone is a nightmare for dating.

This setting has no effect/does not work. Give it a try and see if it works for you, I bet it does not.
The only thing functional is setting it to 'hide all notifications on the lock screen'.

Can we add widgets on lock screen after update to 4.0.4?if yes pls tell me how...
Just tried it out and it seems i can only add Appz and not actual widgets ? Try this .....
Settings >
Security >
Screen lock >
Swipe >
Lock screen options >
Shortcuts >
Then select your Appz by clicking on the icons and add what you want from your list.
Hope that helps
Buddy as soon i select swipe it returns back to security screen and do not ask for anything further.......
This is what i did , have you got the short cuts turned on ? (slide the slider right till it turns green )
Ok i messed my instruction post up lol
Security >
Lock screen options >
Shortcuts >
Select from list
What i meant to say was you select your "lockscreen security" I used swipe and return to "Security" and then select "Lock screen Options" Sorry about that
Could not find it...i think this option is not available for p3100 model.......
Oh sorry to hear that , I'm on a 3110 (running a 3113 ROM ) .I just looked at your usual manual and it says nothing about adding stuff on the lock screen

As it currently stands, if I were to press the power button on my phone to turn on the screen, the screen turns off within 5~10 seconds if I don't unlock my phone. This is annoying if I'm checking notifications or something, because it just checks for an unlock, not user input. If I'm looking through my notifications and sliding on the screen, it'll still timeout. Is there any way to change this value?
The only option I know of is Settings > Display > Sleep, but that's once the screen's been unlocked and there's been no activity, I'm talking about the timeout directly on the lockscreen.
Ever thought about asking that in the ROM thread?

Has anyone figured out how to disable / freeze the Screen Swipe Effect? I prefer using the pattern lock, but the screen swipe effect still comes on when my phone is paired to trusted device.
You can change the effect used and shortcuts displayed using options in General > Security > Lock Screen settings, but I can't find any way to disable the actual effect.
I've just updated to CM 13 and realized that my phone could be unlocked without any lock screen displaying. Previously, I had a pattern set for my OPO so I was surprised the OTA update removed it. Undeterred, I tried every type of lock option to no avail. It saves the pattern, PIN or password as it requests for it whenever I return to the options screen. However, pressing the power button or double tapping the status bar only blanks out the screen. Pressing the power button or double tapping the screen immediately unlocks my phone, thus bypassing any unlock mode that I've set. Any ideas or anyone facing this strange issue?
Am I the only one facing this problem?

Pull down the status bar until you see the quick toggles then do this:
1. "Edit tiles"
2. + (on the top right)
3. add the "Lock screen" tile
It should be grey now (inactive). Tap on it to enable the lockscreen again.
This tile disables the lockscreen, regardless of your security setting.
If this method does not help, I guess your only help will be a factory reset.

Great! Now the lock screen works as expected. Strange that the lock screen tile is auto selected after an OTA upgrade and no indication in the settings as well (until I toggled the tile off and back on again).

Can't tell you much as I use CM13 and won't switch to COS13.
Check the keyboard settings, there should be an option for gesture typing.

Yup, first thing I did was to head there and toggle gesture typing. No luck there and no idea how it got broken as it stopped working after the OTA update.
I set the setting.
I don't know what more they want from me.
Screen turns black then immediately it's locked.

C'mon.
