[HELP] [POSSIBLE FIXES] CM12S lockscreen cannot enable swipe to unlock - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just flashed CM12S, I used to have "swipe" as my lockscreen security and it worked fine.
I tested the "PIN" security but hate it (have to swipe first and then enter PIN).
However, now I cannot revert back to "swipe"?!?!?! It is greyed out and says "Disabled by administrator, encryption polocy, or credential storage". I do not use encryption.
Anyone else has the same problem? Anyone has a solution?
Thanks.

POSSIBLE FIXES:
I found for other devices the following possible solutions: (I did not test them, I did a clean install with calkulin's ROM)
1. Remove Guest account (it will come back).
2. OR: go into credentials store and just browse.
3. OR: remove credentials store (DON'T BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING, google this solution before you attempt).

[How-To] Enable Native Tethering on I337_OC3 - 5.0.1 (4/10/2015)

***The following modification will only work on Stock, Rooted OC3(Android 5.0.1) builds. Use on a non-stock custom ROM may cause issues***
**Required** Root access and FlashFire - Play BETA - PREVIEW
1. Join the G+ community using the same Google account as you're using for Play on your phone/tablet here: https://plus.google.com/communities/116661625291346007584
2. Sign up to receive the BETA versions from Play here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/eu.chainfire.flash?authuser=0
- Use the link provided after sign-up to download the app.
Instructions:
1. Place the I337_OC3_TetherAddOn onto your device (use either internal or ext-sdcard)
2. Open the FlashFire app and "Agree" to the Terms and Conditions.
3. Press "(+)" twice to bring up the "Actions" menu.
4. Select "Flash Zip or OTA" then locate and select the I337_OC3_TetherAddOn.
5. Leave "Auto-mount" unchecked under the "Options" menu and press the checkmark to continue.
6. From the main menu press the lightning bolt then "Ok" to begin the flash (leave defaults settings under "EverRoot" and "Reboot" options).
The screen will turn black then display the contents of your system, flash the .zip, then reboot. Done!
I think I'm going to try this just to get some experience with Flashfire, since I don't really tether. XD
Update: Flash seems to have succeeded with no hangups, but I don't have mobile data to test results.
This installed and worked great. Tested and used it twice.
Only issue is today I got a letter from AT&T stating I needed to stop tethering else they are going to change my data plan.
I rarely ever tether.
Anyone else had any experience with this? I'd like to go to 5.0.1, but don't want to lose tethering.
Hiya, link to I337_OC3_TetherAddOn seems stale. Any chance you could update, would like to enable tethering on my phone (OC4). Thanks muniz_ri!
Found it on another thread, thanks!

Can't remove screen lock from Huawei P8

Under Settings/Screen Lock & Passwords/Password, the "None" option is grayed out with "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage".
I've disabled all Device Administrators and Trusted Agents, cleared credentials, but still can't remove the password.
What am I missing?
Thanks!

I am having the same problem in Huawei Honor 6 plus. Followed the above steps as well but it didn't work out.
One thing I would like to mention is that I have recently received an update (B520) which has added android pay option in nfc and inside Google settings. That is the main culprit I think.

what you r missing is lack of sense about where what to post.

You need to have a bit older Google Play Services to disable FrpUpdateIntentService. Latest Google Play Services is not downgradeable anymore.
Latest Google Play Services Has Patched Frp Lock Disable by hiding "FrpUpdateIntentService" without disabling it, it's impossible to disable frp lock with google account. it's important to disable FrpUpdateIntentService for FRP Lock disable method to work.
USE AT OWN RISK, IF YOU HAVE CUSTOM KERNEL THEN IF GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES WILL UPDATE SOMEHOW THEN YOU WILL GET "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock"
To avoid Custom Binary Blocked By FRP Lock when google play services updated
Then you have no choice. you need to live without google account added.

FRP bypass
I have discovered a new bypass method that could be used on most android.
I spent 3 days searching and exploring to bypass a Google frp lock on a Alco pro12 tablet. Finally I was able to bypass it and get to system settings. There are a few complications as I had to switch to "guest user" or else it comes back asking for previous acco unt.
Steps are as follows:
1) tap "add network" on Wi-Fi selection screen.
2) type in anything and long press to access "share".
3) long press on Gmail to access app setting.
4) click "data usage" and tap "app settings".
5) click three dots in upper right hand corner and select "manage accounts" click "ok".
You will now be in the device settings menu to be able to do whatever you see fit.
I hope this helps someone as it did me. I DON'T condone theft or unlawfully accessing someone's device.
I gave my daughter a chance to be responsible and she failed. Luckily for her I finally figured this out and her $300 paperweight is now usable again.
Good luck to all!!!

do you have updated link for apk
i have discovered a new frp bypass, to do it you just have to be lucky i guess
1. buy a phone where the seller had the bootloader unlocked, or bypass the setup screen to enable the ability to unlock the bootloader and do so (if you still can idk)
2. flash twrp
3. flash your rom (if you dont want to use stock)
4. mount /system, use the file explorer to go into /system/priv-app
5. delete the setup folder (contains setup.apk of course)
6. reboot
its been literally 15 minutes so idk how permanent this is, but ive added my own google account and everything seems working and in order. htc u11 8.0.0 btw.

Some versions of the Android kernel are out of date and they allow you to do some trickery to get into the settings via the keyboard or a help link within the FRP itself.
It's a matter of luck, he is no moron.... It is you who is the frustrated moron, please refrain from name calling out of sheer frustration. lmao

It is better to use frp_destroyer zip by Zillinium which completely removes the FRP partition & I think it is the simplest way to do this.

Google verification issues

Hi all, I'm having an issue with setup wizard specifically the Google verification. It's telling me I need to sign in with an account previously used on the device (it's brand new) due to an apparent improper factory restore. I'm able to open apps using nova launcher but when I go to select default launcher it says setup wizard and I can't change it. I'm also unable to add a Google account. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Doesn't sound new. Wipe it:
Settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset
Box was sealed and everything, I tried restoring from settings but same thing. Also only the back button works home and menu don't, is there a root bypass or ROM in the works?
Did you ever login with another google account?
Try:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase config

I assume I'd need to enable USB Debugging to use those, which I'm unable to. Would a stock rom flash or root fix my issues once either are released?
So I found a fix via vnrom (Test DPC) everything works now but I'm hoping there will be a fix for the notification bar and such. Just wanted to update you guys, thanks for the assistance

Checking for updates bypass but need to connect to a Google Account.

Hello,
I have a big problem with my samsung S8+. Indeed, i installed TWRP 3.2.3-2-dream2lte with Odin 3.12.3, it was OK. I decide to wipe data and flash zip "no-verity-opt-encrypt-3.1".
No i must to do the first steps of the installation of Android 8. I have the september 2018 patch.
First problem, i'm stuck with "Checking for updates"..
I try the cmd in TWRP Console 'echo "ro.setupwizard.mode=DISABLED" >> /system/build.prop' with System Mount but nothing...
I try to disable wifi but nothing..
When i remove the Sim Card and disable the WIFI, the step "checking for updates" is fast and i can do the nexts steps !!
Second problem, at the end of the setup of Android, I have a message which say that i must to connect a google account of the owner of the phone (ME) and the system put me on the "Checking for updates" screen... I read that it's a protection for factory reset..
So it's a loop, i must succeed the "checking for updates" but if i bypass the step, it asks to me to connect to a Google account (which is done in the "checking for updates"step...
I tried to restore data with samsung account but i have the same message.. I have a probleme because Samsung Europ don't guarantee my phone because it's an Asian model so "after sales service".
Can you helep me please? you're my last hope. Thank you.
Best regards,
Florian
You could try doing the FRP reset for the s8+ and see if it removes the FRP lock then you would bypass the sign in to the google account and could just hit skip, there is usually a skip option on the bottom left if there was no Google account logged in previously.
Also, copy your build.prop to your computer and look to see if you have ro.setupwizard as OPTIONAL and DISABLED, because your adding DISABLED to the EOL but in my build.prop it's already set to OPTIONAL don't know if that could create a conflict but mine always bypasses the setup when I changed optional to disabled
