I've been trying to set up my password on the Lock Screen but it fails using the following process:
- Choose Screen Lock
- Password
- Try to set password
ERROR MESSAGE:
"Because you've turned on an accessibility service, your device won't use your screen lock to enhance data encryption."
I'm not sure what accessibility service I may have turned on that is causing this error.
Suggestions?
Try go to Settings -> Accessibilty -> Turn all service off and untick all options and try again?
- As it can be seen from the screenshot given below, I can't disable the screen lock from developer options.
- I have no pin or pattern lock enabled.
- My actual intention is to disable even the swipe lock.
- My device: Chinese MHA-AL00.

Hi,
i'm on OOS 5.1.6 with unlocked bootlader, official TWRP, and root via Magisk, also got xposed and a few modules (greenify being one of them).
Now the noob silly part: how comes that even if i set fingerprint security for lockscreen (with PIN security behind), if i turn off the screen via power button, and then wake it up (after more than 5secs!) with button again, i am presented with a lockscreen with no security and i can simply swipe up the lock icon and enter the phone?
I'm for sure missing something really obvious here, OR one of my modules (GB, Greenify) might interfere with the security?
Just to be clear: fingerprint unlocking WORKS flawlessly, but if i use the button it just shows the small lock icon that i can simply swipe-up.
Thanks!
Maybe you have enabled face unlock?
Do you have smart lock on? Trusted place or similar, smart watch etc. If one of those are on, it will let you unlock just with a swipe.
And the default time for this lock is 5 sec, see the settings icon right of display lock in settings - security
Thanks guys, i had for some reason Smart Lock enabled, and specifically trusted places (Home) taken from Google Maps. I could not disable it (well i could, but it reverted back as active) until i found under 'Trust Agents' Smart Lock (Google) and disabled it.
Weird.
On Stock system and if screen is locked I can still access the pull down menu to turn on WiFi etc
How can I get it so this is not possible if phone locked
Thanks
I'm on the latest Android 10 beta so I don't know if it's the same, but go to settings, security and lockscreen, then tap the gear icon that's next to "screen lock", then enable the option "disable quick settings panel on lock screen"

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Simple that did the trick

Prevent instant lockscreen activation (Bring back "automatically lock after timeout")
Premise:
I moved from LineageOS to MIUI 11 since a couple of months and I was immediately bothered by having to unlock my phone every time, even if I used it one minute ago. I have face recognition and the fingerprint sensor is fast, but that doesen't help (trusted networks/devices neither in my case). Apparently, there is no option to lock the screen after a period of inactivity and the typical "solution" I've seen around was just disabling the lockscreen or using a third-party one.
So, after a bit of search I found an alternative, quite simple and yet a bit hidden.
It requires CustoMIUIzer (so yes, root, possibly with Magisk, and the EdXposed module) and Tasker.
In CustoMIUIzer you should go in System > Lock screen > Disable screen lock and select "Enable mod". If in the settings below you select "Disable completely" in "Disable screen lock" menu and turn on "Skip lock screen", when you will turn off and on your screen you will see that the lockscreen doesn't appear. You can put it back to "System default" but leave "Skip lock screen" enabled.
Now let's make this easier with Tasker, that has a plugin for CustoMIUIzer. The simplest way is making a button or shortcut in your launcher that you would press to disable and enable lockscreen manually when you want, without going everytime in CustoMIUIzer. The other way is automating the process with a couple of profiles (and tasks): the first one will trigger on display unlock, disable lockscreen and set a time (eg. 10min later) when the second one will trigger and enable lockscreen again. The second task could also be used to lock the screen manually.
For simplicity, I'll attach my files and screenshots. That's not necessarily the best setting, but it works well. I set the timeout to 10 minutes (in "lockOff", %TIMES+60*10). The task that disables lock ("lockOff") creates a toast notification when you turn on the screen, so you can remove the last three actions if everithing is working. Both profiles have to be active. Make sure that Tasker won't be killed by MIUI or battery savers, maybe lock it in recent apps.
