when you activate the camera on a locked phone and hit the back button it takes you to the home screen without asking for pin or fingerprint. Anyone can reproduce the issue?

Not mine, back to lockscreen.
Using full screen gestures, no physical buttons.
I also get sent back to the lockscreen
Have you updated to the latest firmware? I'm also running Nova launcher if it changes anything. It takes me back to the last used screen not to the home screen.
Also not working for me
EDIT: I'm using stock launcher with google feed. Might be nova launcher then

On body detection and voice. No location or devices.
I've just disabled the body detection and it solved the issue.

I have a 10minute delay until the pattern lock screen pops up but what if i wanted to lock the screen right away instead of waiting the 10 minutes, is there a widget or LaucherPro shorcut method to do this?
Go into settings then security and you can reset the delay time

i don't want to reset the delay. i want to keep the 10min delay and have the option to press something to immediately lock the phone.
Yes - found what your looking for!

Yes there is thank goodness. I wanted this myself - tired of pressing the power button to lock the screen. The widget is called Lock Screen Widget from the marketplace. Enjoy - I know I did.
i tried that widget but it doesn't work. just turns the screen off.
i should note that i'm also using "Lock Delay" but even with Lock Delay uninstalled, the Lock Screen widget doesn't work for me.
A lot of people are saying that Lock Delay doesn't work with 2.2 but i'm not having any problems aside from the lock pattern coming up at random times but thats ok, it's only once a while.
pressing the power button works fine for me it locks the screen
we all have different configurations though:
I have Lock Delay to accomplish the following:
1. Pattern Lock only comes on after 10minutes of inactivity
2. Pressing Power button to turn the screen off and then on again will not show the Slide To Unlock screen
This way If i'm going to use the phone on and off during a short period of time (10 minutse), I won't have to keep bothering with sliding to unlock the screen every time i turn the display on.
By default the slide to unlock screen always comes up.
Hmmm. Works for me

Thats exactly what i was thinking lol. As far as the OP idk. i know there are widgets that can turn the lock pattern on and off so if you were to turn off the delay and use that widget that kinda solves your problem
Try switch pro widget

that's what a lot of people have probably but the problem that i see with that is that you have to slide to unlock and pattern unlock EVERY time you turn the display back on. am i correct? because i currently have Lock Delay (app) that disables both slide and pattern locks during the first 10 minutes so i don't have to mess with them every time i want to use the phone.
SwitchPro doesn't work, it only brings me to the unlock settings screen, pressing back will cancel out of the lock.
Lock screen widget works for me

switch pro widget has that option and many more for the power widget
I flashed the Venom ROM. Ever since then I cannot use the lock screen shortcut to the camera. I.E. holding the phone horizontally and pressing the volume button.
I have enabled all the other gestures that I want, like swipe up and down but I cant find out how to get the camera back.
Anyone else have this issue? any solution?
Second this.
It stopped working a few days after I got the phone and I'm still on the stock rom.
This started even before I rooted/S-Offed/added custom recovery to the phone.
I'm running ViperOne & it works fine for me.
I figured it out. I needed to have the AOSP lock screen.

Never mind I lost my swipe gestures when I go to aosp. when I swipe the screen vibrates but nothing happens.
Hi all,
I've always used the application "Screen off and lock" to quickly turn off my Z5 without pressing the side lock button. My button works fine I just find this to be quicker.
However now with marshmallow after I lock the phone using the application, when I wake it up again it won't unlock with my fingerprint, it forces me to unlock the phone with with my pin. It vibrates as if my fingerprint is accepted, but it won't unlock beyond the pin screen.
If I lock the phone normally by pressing the side lock button it will unlock with my fingerprint like normal.
I've tried multiple applications that do the same thing and have made sure to give them the lock permission but I keep running into the same pin screen issue.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Don't use the fingerprint icon, it locks your phone so it requires pin to unlock, you can slide to unlock as previously, or just use the power button to lock screen, then you can unlock with the fingerprint sensor with exception of first boot where you are forced to use pin first time unlock.
Don't quite understand maybe what you are trying to explain, to wake phone you have to push the button, IMO it is faster to just hold your thumb there for a second longer for unlock. Also not sure this is a bug

So when I use this application
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=en
to lock my Z5, when I wake it back up it won't unlock with my fingerprint it keeps asking for my pin.
But when I lock it with the lock button then wake it up it accepts my fingerprint instantly.

Sorry now I am with you, same issue here. Although it would seem the app is not compatible with the 6.0 fingerprint framework, because it doesn't work on pretty much any phone from what I can tell
same here.. i guess it's a bug and we need to wait for the next update that includes Stamina Mode perhaps?
Also for me it's a bug. With lock screen program the fingerprint sensor does not unlock the phone. The fingerprint sensor works only with using a button lock.
I face the same issue with Tasker and Nova Launcher. Worked fine on 5.1.1.
me too
+1 for me too

There's a ticket in Google Android about this, it's the same in Nexus phones. You have workarounds if rooted.
all screen lock apps are not compatible with Marshmallow yet - it requires to use the back up pin/pattern after using the fingerprint . Though, if you uninstall the app - the fingerprint will work without using the pin anymore T_T
I use gravitybox shortcut to sleep the phone. It work.
Hi guys. As the title says, it would be great to not have to use the power button at all to unlock and lock the device again and again.
Now obviously to unlock it, all i have to do is touch the fingerprint scanner.
And to lock it again i have tried apps from store and though those do the job and lock the device but then phone doesn't unlock by fingerprint scanner and it just wakes up and asks for pin to unlock.
Kindly help out.
I am kinda spoiled by knock On/Off feature on LG G4 and never used the power button on that thing.

You must use finger sensor to unlock and circle to lock. No other way. Huawei don't have double click lock/unlock. Bad thing. I see to another phone.
What if you try lock widget (chinese version & I'm not sure if it includes in international or European versions)
Use fingerprint quick action
Lock widgets require admin permission to work and if you lock with widget then fingerprint scanner takes you to pin code screen instead of unlocking the device.

Juat tested with Nova Prime and configured the double tap to turn off the screen.
But that also required admin access and after turning off screen that way, fingerprint scanner brings me to pincode screen again instead of completely unlocking the device.

Double tap Mate 9 not have. Bad. Lock widget not have international version. Only circle, but you must double clock on this quick tool to lock. Mate 9 not have user friendly features like my old G2, G4 or Z11. Mate 9 have only big price. ,)
try using this software from play store. it work very well on my mate 9
Using screen lock app.
Clicking on the icon turns off the screen and lock the phone just fine.
But then when you use fingerprint to unlock, it'll take you to this screen instead.

Where the heck did that come from. :cyclops:

how to install this floating dock? i hope so without root or custom rom, i dont want to void my warranty @gull_s_777

I saw this "floating dock" on my set too, and it's come with stock ROM.
Some detail can find in this website:
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/140...-tricks-take-charge-of-your-mate-9-p9-honor-8
I use Nova Launcher gestures together with Anywhere Launcher to allow me to turn off and lock my screen using a downward swipe from the upper left corner of the screen in any app. It's very convenient.
I'm on C636B188 and that includes the screen lock widget, so you can use that.
Originally, I thought I would prefer it to the floating dock, but after getting used to the dock I like it more because you can access it from anywhere, not just the home screen.
The "Custom Navigation Bar" app has that functionality.
You can add an extra button on the navbar to put the phone to sleep instantly and unlock your device with fingerprint sensor.
I don't know if any other app of such kind.
At least I have this Screen Lock widget directly on my phone. Fingerprint opens the lock just fine after locking it with this widget.
You can use a Nova gesture to lock the screen, but don't use Nova's Screen Lock action in the first tab. Instead, swipe to the last tab on the right ("Shortcuts"), and look for Screen Lock there.
Unfortunately, though, this no longer seems to work on Oreo. Whenever, I try to select the Screen Lock shortcut, I get a message saying 'App isn't installed.' I have a feeling it has something to do with the fact that they replaced the Floating Dock with the Navigation Dock.
i just update the stock firmware, yes, the latest stock 188 rom has built in widgt for turn off the screen. it is very handy.

I have a Huawei Nova 2i & was looking for the same. Go to Smart Assistance & activate Floating Dock.
Hi there . I've been using a Galaxy S10 for the past 3 years. When I flicked open the cover, it went straight onto the home screen, without ANY lock screen, not even swipe.
I did disable the lock screen on this Xiaomi 12T, but I still can't get rid of a screen that requires me to swipe before I get to my home screen. How can I get rid of it?
Thank you in advance!

Not possible and this prevents an app from accidentally launching.
Damn . Since I have a cover with a latch, apps accidentally launching are a non-issue
Another case of product design which sacrifices customization in the name of "saving the majority".
Ouffff. Anybody know any workaround? Other than rooting the phone
No workaround,without rooting and this remains to be verified, except maybe with an AOSP rom.
I believe in the extended settings/ developer options (to activate hit several times miui version in detailed cell phone overview from settings) it is possible to deactivate lockscreen.
