Is there any way to disable the home button on the lock screen? I can make it not show up but pressing where it was still wakes the phone up.
Would also like to know this.

i dunno if any of you notice this. when you press the right most button, with the red end call key, the phone goes into standby, but did not go into lockscreen. when you press any button, the screen lights up in home screen and the next second the lock screen kicks in.
i am wondering is it possible to tweak and make it such that when u press the button, the screen will go into lockscreen first before the screen blackout. i guess we can't have the screen blackout and going into lockscreen together since going into standby, app wouldn't run either.
Just that i prefer to lockscreen first rather than when i wake it up, it goes into lockscreen and i have to unlock it.
That will depend on the ROM. At least on the HD2 this will happen if you disable automatic backlight. Did you do that?
Hit start and then hit lock on the bottom left.
So I'm looking for a Lock Screen program that will fit my needs and so far I've come up very blank...
Here are my needs:
1. Lock the screen when I hit the power button.
2. Prevent the phone from powering off when holding down the End Key when the device is locked.
My device is a Touch Pro 2. The built in Lock screen works great at preventing a power down, but it doesn't lock when I press the power button.
Most of the replacement programs S2U2, PocketShield, TouchLockPro, LockMeLite... they all lock when I hit the power button but they don't prevent powering off when holding down the End Key. S2U2 is supposed to have a setting that will lock this but it doesn't work.
So, any recommendations?
Okay, I found a program (see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649695&highlight=lock) that makes the default lock screen show up whenever the system goes into stand by.
Is there any way, when using the default windows lock program that comes with the Verizon Wireless Touch Pro2, to make the phone lock when pressing the power button on top?
I'm struggling to find a program that will prevent my phone from powering down when I have it in my belt holster. Most of the replacement programs out there do NOT prevent the phone from turning off by holding down the end key when the screen is locked. The only lock program that I found that can is the default lock program. But that won't automatically lock the phone when I press the power button on top. It will only lock if it tap the 'lock' soft key.
Any suggestions?
Found my solution! A little program that causes the lock to happen whenever the phone goes into standby.

I have a pattern lock on my phone, and I was wondering if there was a way to set the lock screen so when I press the home button the pattern view shows.
The way that I would like this to work is as follows:
I pick my phone up and wake it up in my preferred way (double click home button), I then check to see if I have any notifications, if so I double click and interact that way, but if not, again press the home button to show the 9 dots and allow me to put my pattern in.
Is this a possibility, I'm currently running CM13.
Thanks

Hello All. I just enabled the function to unlock the phone by hard pressing the home button under Settings- Display- Navigation Bar. I find that this only works if your screen timed out and not if you shut the display off with power button on side. Is this working as it should or do you see this as a bug? Personally I think it should unlock with a home button hard press no matter what. Thanks.
Mine goes to unlock every time. Iris/Face Recog or pattern....
I am using no security, just swipe to unlock.
I do think that that is a bug, I'm using the hard press to unlock feature without security too, and the hard press works even after locking the screen manually.
Screen timeout and screen lock have to different settings.
So if you screen times out at 30sec
But the lock kicks in at 1min.
Then your be able to simple press the home button and go right back into the home menu after the 30sec but before the 1min mark.
If you press the power button it normally auto locks.
Meaning you cant press the home button to launch into the home screen.
Now this is all if you have no Security on.
I had the exact same issue as you did after I installed Samsung Oreo Beta Program. Then I found out that for some reason that the option got turned off. So you might want to double check and see if it is still enabled. To do this, do the following two things below:
1. Enable Unlock with Home Button
• Settings
• Display
• Navigation Bar
• Buttons
• Unlock with Home Button
*Then make sure Unlock with Home Button is enabled*
2. Then I would double check your phones Lock Screen & Security by doing the following:
• Settings
• Lock screen and security
• Screen Lock type
*Make sure Swipe is enabled*
Worst 8+ option...
1. Home button on AOD is disabled.
2. Unlock with home button (hard press to unlock) is disabled.
Still, hard press on home button area on lock screen (AOD), unlock the phone?!
Does anyone have a clue how to disable this crappy option?
