Does Smart Face Unlock work for you?

As the title says, does it even work? I tried many many times, improved the face recognition at least a dozen times, but it simply never ever works...

Yes, for me works and it's super-fast!
I have enabled the unlock pattern with smartlock, so if the camera recognize my face it do not ask for the unlock pattern.

Can you tell if it has recognized you before actually trying to unlock the device? Or it's a surprise, so to speak?

If you notice: when you press the unlock button and the phone shows you the lockscreen there's an icon like a "user icon" in the bottom of the screen, if the smartlock recognize you it will change in an unlocked padlock, if it don't, it will be a locked padlock.
Sorry for my bad english dude

With Secure Settings (and Tasker) it will do pattern lock. I am doing this. The only difference between KK and L with secure settings is you have to go into the spanner icon > Pattern unlock method [4.1+] > Lock Settings (Experimental)

One thing I've had a few times though, if im locked then come in range of WiFi, it is still locked and the pattern doesn't unlock it, so I've had to turn the screen off and on again

I read somewhere (can't recall where) that, that is supposed to happen. You have to unlock first with pin/pattern then it should take affect but I too have only had this happen a couple times. The rest of the times it just simply unlocks.

Hmm. With the new experimental feature you mean?
But what I mean is it is broken sometimes. Doesn't accept the pattern. It shows the pattern path as correct and just hangs there, not unlocking, until I off and on the screen.

use the new play service apk and set location

I have the same issue. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I give up sometimes and just enter it manually.

Do you have Secure Settings?
And in secure setting do you have System+ Module enabled and set up as Device Admin?
What me and @rootSU were talking about is just a, you can say a bug, where the pattern is complete but it just hangs to unlock.You can see the pattern (Which I think sucks because someone else can see if you just leave your phone on that screen) but it just stays there. You lock your phone again and upon swiping the regular slide lock, there shouldn't be any prompt anymore and it should work fine after that.
I know using Tasker alone cause a lot of error like not disabling lock screen at all and just a blank screen sometimes.

Swipe to unlock even with pin and fingerprint setted up

Hi, after last update I have a serious security issue. Even if I set pin and fingerprint as unlock method, the phone can be unlocked just by swiping the screen. Has anyone experienced that? How can I solve?

Do you have Smart Lock enabled? Check your settings, maybe you enabled it and forgot about it.

How do you enable Call Screen?

I just got the Pixel 3a and can't seem to get the call screen to work. No Call Screen option in the Phone settings and no option when I'm getting a call. All the instructions I found are for the Pixel 3.
Edit: Seems like I just needed to update all of my apps. Please delete

I missed your edit. That's great!

Just making sure but it's not just me who doesn't have it. It's only available in the USA right?

hello, I found out that you have to update the phone app in the play store. What country are you in?

Hello I am in the UK, and the phone app is fully updated for me. I've seen people have modified the code for the pixel 3 to allow for global call screening. Hopefully as the 3a will have a the same sort of community.

Ambient Display

9.5.6 update, non-root, US unlocked version. Anyone having this feature randomly stop working, including tap to wake? Is there a temp fix or is this a software update needed from one plus?

Disable ambient display for now and use double tap to wake. OnePlus is working on it. I hope

*#808# in dialer and go to device debugging. Calibrate the proximity sensor. Seems to have fixed it for me.
