Hello from France,
Same question for me!
I have a Mate 8, and I chose "password:none" in "settings/screen lock & passwords". But when I use the powerbutton to turn the screen OFF and ON, it still ask me to slide. Is it possible to remove this useless page?

Go to settings menu -> Advanced Settings -> Security -> 'Power button instantly locks'... (should be at the bottom of the page)
I have unchecked this option, so that when i press the power button it just switches screen off and does not lock.
I have additionally set the option next to it "Automatically lock", to 5 Minutes.. (So that i am presented with password lock screen after some time of inactivity, the time before that the power button will just switch on/off screen)
Note that these options are only available if you have set either a password, PIN, etc.

thank you !!!

How can I remove password from a Huawei mate 8

So I thought Id try this as I would also love to just press the power button and the main screen pops up (no lock screen) so I added a pin and unchecked Power button instantly locks, but this only means that it wont lock from the power button it will lock from between 1 min to 30 min after sleep.
The problem is that now when I try to put the password back to none its grayed out and faint writing saying "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage" ive added and taken out the pin a few times in the past whilst using (or not) the fingerprint scanner, so why now can I not undo it ?
im on NXT-DL00 17B368
EMUI 4.1
Hope someone can help me

During the "Factory reset" process I don't "ok" the "password" or "finger print" options.
I never have the "lock screen" show up

I bought a Mediapad T3 with the same useless page. Enable Developer Options, under that there's an option "Screen Lock". Disable that, and then the display won't be locked with the requirement to swipe to unlock (which is useless, except for notifications).

Hello!
How/where did you enabled the "Developer Options" in Android 7.0/EMUI 5.1?
Thank you in advance!

Settings > about phone > then click 7 time's on build number then back to main settings and you'll find it.
If you asking about where "screen lock" under developer option in android 7 So there is no screen lock under developer options maybe in android 6!

How to disable lock screen
You can disable lock screen with apps like No Lock (BoD).
This works with my Honor 8 (Nougat)
Don't use PIN code or pattern lock.

No worck on EMUI 8.

Password Lock Phone

Hello,
The exchange password policy was pushed to my phone after setting up my work e-mail. This is fine and does not bother me. I am having trouble figuring out how to enable the lock feature before the timeout period so that I can lock my phone whenever I want vs. waiting for the timeout period.
I have gone to settings and lock and it does lock the keys but does not require my password to unlock the phone. Is this how it is supposed to behave? Any idea on how I can lock the phone on demand to password protect my device?
Thank you all.
not sure what version you have but the Verizon Wireless TP2 when lock is enabled under Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock, it has Lock as the right softkey on the main screen.
I have the sprint version and when i go to Settings Tab/All Settings/Personal Tab/Lock the phone goes into lock mode and has the keypad displayed for me to enter the password. The issue is though that I don't need to enter my password to unlock the phone. As long as I hit the unlock soft key on the bottom left hand side the phone unlocks itself. I believe it should require me to input my password and then hit unlock.
Just an fyi I do have a password setup on my phone and it does work as I expect it to when the phone times out after 15 minutes and locks itself automatically. I just want to be able to do this without waiting.
if u go to all setting, personal, buttons, then end key, you can choose to display a quick list by holding the end key where you can select to lock the phone or just lock the phone by holding the end key.
Thank you! That worked and it is prompting me for the password to unlock the phone just as I needed.
glad 2 help

[Q] [ICS] Pattern unlock dalay doesn't work

If I use a pattern as a security option and the click "automatically lock" after 30 mins, it doesn't do it, instead it ask for a patter every single time I turn off-on the screen.
Anybody has this issue?

Thanks
Same here!

If im not mistaken, this option is only valid when you let the screen switch off itself and not press the power button to lock the screen. try it out.

I think you are right, I wonder why Google did this weird feature. iOS, WebOS, WP, Custom skins like Blur, sense? have a properly delayed Security Lock.
You set X time, and the security lock will be show X mins after you finished used the device including pushing the power button.

Pin lock screen turnin off

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.

Screen Recorder Not Showing Prompt

Hello. I'm new here and I really need your help. Recently bought Huawei Mate 9 and I cannot use the screen recording feature. Whenever I click the icon on the status bar, my phone only goes back to the home page and is not showing the prompt to start recording the screen. I also tried the knuckle screen record and the Volume Up + Power button and same thing happens. My screen only goes back to home and does not show any prompt to start screen recording.

Have you turned off window animations in developer mode? Put them back on. At least to .5x
Where can I find that setting sir/maam. Still having this problem. Thanks so much for reply.
You have to enable the Developer options.
Settings > About phone > Build number
Once you’ve found the Build number section of the settings, tap on the section 7 times. After two taps, a small pop up notification should appear saying "you are now X steps away from being a developer" with a number that counts down with every additional tap.
The thing is if you don't know where developer mode is, it means you did not turn off animations in developer mode in the first place ?

Hi - I had this issue as well with my Mate 10 Pro and I found out a way to fix mine: Go to Settings > in the search bar type "Dropzone apps" > Dropzone apps
This sets the permission for individual apps to display over other apps. In "Dropzone apps", find "Screen Recording" and turn on the permission. This fixed my problem. Hope this helps you too!
