I'm using OnePlus One running CM12. I have been using PIN lock with on body detection on. And just a day ago I did a factory reset and now I can't see the on body detection option under smart lock.
Ps: I did the factory reset with the PIN code activated. I forgot to turn it off before the factory reset.
Any solution to get it back? Thanks.

please help me
If your problem is too many pattern attempts try this.
Call the phone from another phone.
Answer the problem phone, hit the back key while call is still engaged. From there hit menu and go into settings. You may be able to remove pattern lock or do a factory reset. You will lose your apps etc but not your info on sd card. I fixed one for a friend with this method before. Might take a few goes to get it right.

That has't worked since before 2.1.......
Because it was new to me I had chosen face unlock, if not pattern as you know. I wanted to disable any security and go back to slide,but the option was grey and wont let me change. I chose pattern now and even face unlock option is turned grey. Only options left are pin and password. I just want to use the slide, how do I return to default options?
Thanx
No one?

Have you tried selecting either pin or password? Maybe it'd let you go back to slide unlock then.
No I tried that. It only leaves me with pattern, pin, and password options. Should i clear the credentials?

Try a cold boot. If that doesn't work, maybe a factory reset.

Cold boot didnt work. What the hell! On Transformer prime I used to switch between screen unlock options easily. Here I read "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage". There is no administrator here! How do I re-enable the first three options? I am going nuts!
Can anyone check if they can easily switch between screen unlock options? Is this a bug? I dont want to go back to factory defaults. I didnt root that one and I dont have a backup. I want to know have I messed something or is this a universal bug, so that Asus would fix.
Just tried face, PIN and pattern unlock and was able to return to Slide without a problem every time. It seems a bit drastic for such a thing, but maybe try a factory reset?

First of all you did NOT have to restore factory settings to fix this. But for some reason this procedure isn't even explained very well, even in the Nexus 7 Handbook. Maybe because in Pattern setting, you have to "Confirm the Pattern" before given the various Unlock Options screen. Duh.... yeah I know because I felt so dumb when I finally figured this out. Do your pattern and it magically unlocks the choices screen again. That aren't hidden when you use the slide or other settings in Security settings panel. The menu choices just show up only after confirming the Unlock choice you're using at that time!
If this fails and you truly are unable to unlock the choices menu, then you can try a Factory Reset. But first try dumping credentials as a last ditch measure to fix the problem. I hope this can help someone else, that was as frustrated as you and I were!!! .....I've seen where lots of new Android users especially, get tripped up by that pattern match unlock w/ "Confirm Pattern", not knowing it's to unlock the menu!
On the initial set up of Lollipop , when it gives you the option of setting up smart lock, my brother foolishly said no thanks and then when he saw me using this feature, I told him the way to set it up. But when he went to security the feature wasn't present. The initial no thanks has taken it as no thanks forever.
Is there any way to re-enable this feature.
Got this from googling smart lock:
This menu can also be accessed by also going to?*Settings, selecting?*Security, followed by?*Smart Lock?*and?*Trusted Devices. The Smart Lock option will only be available if a security lock, such as a pattern or a passcode, is enabled on your device.
Tried it doesn't work there has to be a other work around... without factory reset that is..
Even it is not working for me.. I even enabled it

Have seen this issue before, usually caused by a third party app. Boot in safe mode to see if issue persists.
Yes thanks, screen off and lock was the problem

Hello all. I have a problem. I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to set my lock screen to 'None'. I've tried:
Disabling fingerprints and fingerprint unlock,
Disabling smart unlock and any trusted agents
Disabling and uninstalling Android Pay and Android Wallet,
Disabling NFC,
I have no VPNs
I have no administrators enabled,
I have cleared my credential storage,
powered off my phone and powered it back on
I do not have any encryption enabled
and still 'None' is grayed out with the "Disabled by Administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage" message.
I just can't think of anything else to try in order to disable the lockscreen. Can anyone please help me?:crying: Thank you for anyone help anyone can offer. I'm desparate!
You seem to have tried everything. Only thing else I can think of is I know sometimes if apps are allowed draw over others, the phone can block some security settings.
Just a suggestion, but if you go into your apps in settings and change it there, maybe it'll work
All I can suggest then is a factory reset unfortunately, I cannot think of anything else to change
Sorry I couldn't be of more help
Draw over other apps
Should I disable Draw over other apps for every app in the list or any one in particular?

I have exactly the same problem,after factory reset it s ok,but after instalation couples of apps and other stufs again is the same...i dont know where is problem...is anybody resolve this without factory reseting phone?
We have this issue on our Honor 8. It's my son's phone so I can't test possible solutions. One I read was to remove all credentials. Since I don't have the phone, I have no idea where credentials are. Another I read said to create a pattern lock and a pin emergency lock. Use the WRONG pattern 5 times or until it requires the back-up pin. Enter back-up pin then the "none" choice returned. It will be a few more weeks before I have access to the phone. If either works, please report back.
