I have the s6 non edge and have setup fingerprint unlock and my Wi-Fi at home and my pebble are setup as trusted devices. But every time I want to unlock the phone, I first have to wipe up at the loch screen and then I have to unlock via fingerprint. Is it possible to setup the phone so I don't have to wipe up first?
Thanks
You mean when you have the fingerprint setup as a login option you have to swipe up first?
When I setup fingerprint as an unlock setting all I had to do what unlock the phone and put my finger on the sensor, I dont have to wipe up or anything.

So here is the gist. When using fingerprint and trusted devices, when the lockscreen comes up, dont swipe the lock symbol. Swipe anywhere else on the screen and no fingerprint needed.

Thank you very much for this info! - I was so used to swipe my finger for unlocking that I overlooked the Lock Icon at the bottom of the screen.
If you want to lock your Device again just swipe the Lock Icon that appears while your phone is unlocked via the Trusted Device.
Note: This is also working on S5 an S5+ Devices!
Thank you!'! This has been driving me crazy on my S6 edge +. How unintuitive, but you are right. ???

Hi all
İs there a way to turn off all fingerprint and 4 digits pin code for unlocking screen?
İ remove fingerprint but the pin code stays still. İ need to just swipe to unlock.
Thnx
I was able to revert to no code/password check for the lock screen...
Removed also the PIN?
Nope.No any selection for no pin. Only fingerprint in menu.
Deactivating fingerprint also didint remove pin lock.
What must i do?
Delete all your fingerprints.
This is the menu.Png.
The top selection is no password/pin selection. But it is blocked.
Why can it be blocked default by it self?
You must previously delete all your stored fingerprints.
Did that already mate

Have you enabled any VPN connection?
How could i do it? I dont know if.i did?
If you don't know how to do I think that you didn't activate the credential storage and any VPN.... So this is not the cause.
Check also among the device administrators if there is something unexpected.
İ ve checked everything but nothing found.So boring.İ ve got.the doze app and i uninstalled it also.
As described in the settings, lockscreen PIN check is under control of device administrators, credentials storage and cryptography...
Were you ever able to lock/unlock screen without PIN or password?
Untill selecting the fingerprint screen lockin i could.Or i have never tried i dont remember excatly. I think when i bought the phone i just put the fingerprint first.
Where can i check the device administrators menu? And where/what is cryptography?
Under Advanced settings/Security.
No way..Starting to get upset and angry with this phone. It will be very funny if i have to reset the phone for this problem!
Any solutions? I also have the same problem...
Solution to mate 8 password removal
Step 1 go to settings
Step 2 Go to Advanced settings
Step 3 Click on Security
Step 4 Scroll right to the bottom
Step 5 Click on Screen Lock
Step 6 Type in your password.
you will now see that when you lock your phone with the power button and unlock it with the power button, the lock screen has been completely removed.
you want the lock screen back with no password see below
Step 1 go to settings
Step 2 Go to Advanced settings
Step 3 Click on Security
Step 4 Scroll right to the bottom
Step 5 Click on Screen Lock
Step 6 you will see the screen lock will turn on.
Thats it, exit settings and test, you can now lock the phone and unlock the phone then swipe to on the screen to unlock it to your apps.
I did this and it worked for me because i had the same issue.

3) For Folder Locker Its the same...

Thank u advance...
Are you sure you have fingerprint sensor enabled in its settings to Nnlock Screen?
I'm aware you have Android 7 but which build is it and country?
Failing everything you have done go back in Fingerprint Setting and recheck all you settings..
Even to the point where you may have to delete stored Fingerprint settings save to device and start all over once again..
Hi, i got a new Smartphone (huawei P9 with android 7.0) and it drives me nuts that i can't find a way to disable the "swipe to unlock" on it. I do set a password anyway so to unlock my phone i have to swipe and then i get to the password screen.
Feels very unnecessary to have to go through two lock screens everytime. And i can't find a way to disable that. I did disable the smart-cover but that wasn't it. Can someone help me? I have also root access but i just can't find a solution for this issue.
Hi i have a problem where i cannot set a backup lock like pin or pattern... Only option i have is swipe. Cannot set finger print and face unlock options without the backup lock...
Phone is op 7 pro with android 10.0.4 GM21BA.
Aby help would be nice...
