Bypass lock screen 5.0 OTA update

Hi all, one new annoying feature that VZW added to the 5.0 update was removing "Bypass lock screen on wake" from the security settings. Now when I check the security settings I see the option greyed out (screenshot below). Anyone know a way around this? The two-step unlocking is really annoying.

screenshot missing. What are the two steps? Turn on, unlock? Personally I want the lock since my phone has so much personal data on it.

If you need bypass for calling, there is that option in the swipe down motion gesture settings.

(5.0) How to get rid of slide screen (pre-lock screen)?

How do we get rid of the slide up screen when you turn the display on? It seems that enabling pattern lock will enable the slide up screen to show up again.

I really don't think you can, it's a standard feature of Lollipop.

Seccurity setting automatically lock -> cant disable immediately

For greenify it is required that I disable the setting of the immediately lock the screen after automatically lock. To be find in "settings" - security - automatically lock. I cannot disable the only option there: "immediately". Can someone help me please.

Screen security (silly?) question

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.
