I've noticed that Android 5.0 allows to change many system settings (enable/disable WiFi/BlueTooth/Autorotate/etc) on its Lock Screen without entering any password.
I hate this liberty.
Does anyone have any idea how to disable this feature?
I cannot find anything in settings.

I too cannot believe this was left as a feature... I was hoping that would be fixed in the final version.
Bump.
This is actually a security issue.

I agree but there's nothing in android. 3rd party lock screen is the only way.
a fix for this would be good, as anyone can just pick up your phone and change any of the quick settings without unlocking it.
So you would not be able to track the phone if it got nicked and someone just stuck it in airplane mode!

does it matter if airplane mode is in quick settings or the main setting? if they want to steal your phone and put it into airplane mode, they will do it regardless if its in quick settings or the main settings. its stuff that you yourself use often that will appear in quick settings. i personally think its a great feature.

But they should not be able to do it while the phone is locked. At very least we should have the option of what should be accessible without unlocking the phone.

even if they were not in the quick settings, you can still pull down the notification bar while in the lockscreen, and go into the main settings. so, everything there is available to any thief.

Heck, I'm not even worried about the security situation with this, I just want to disable it because I think it is extremely poorly executed!
It offers nothing that power toggles doesn't, and is not even configurable for what options are present. I never use auto-rotate, cast screen, invert colors, etc, and yet, those options are available instantly!

They can also just remove the sim card or turn it off.
What I am looking for, is for the only possible thing you can do, while the phone is locked, is enter the password. Is there a way to set that up? Not be able to toggle any settings at all or remove the quick settings(I am ok with the emergency calling and camera widget, since you can't access the pictures on the phone until entering the password). I know they could still remove the sim or power off the phone but at least it might buy some more time if your phone gets stolen for you to track it or snap a pic of the thief. It would be nice if you could also disable the power menu and volume buttons while on the lock screen.
For now, until other solution is found or developed, you can go to notification settings and in 'When device is locked' change the setting to 'Hide sensitive notification content'. This disables access to quick settings from the lock screen but also hides titles of notifications, so you will see the notifications for emails, texts etc., but their content will be hidden.
This doesn't work. Well, if you have root and xposed you can install "Advanced Power Menu" to control the power menu on lockscreen etc and with GravityBox you can control the items on the quick settings. But I still couldn't figure out a way to totally disable it on the lockscreen.
As I remember the "X posed" Module "Notification Mod" could do exactly this. Problem is: It seems that development is discontinued and the stable ver1.2 doesn't (on my lollipop custom rom) work on 5.x

I am seeing this in my new Samsung S7 edge... with finger print and password lock.... it is not there on S5 with finger print and password lock... its a silly feature... why would they turn it on ? My son just put my phone in airplane mode accidentaly.... and I kept wondering why no messages and calls for the whole weekend.... hate to think what it would be like if it happened to someone who was say, on a on-call emergency personnel or something like that.... no one would be able to reach out to them.... I guess now have to keep checking my phone every hour.... hahahaha... or maybe go back to using my S5.. if someone has a solution to this pls share... appreciate it.
No way to disable access to quiick settings on lock screen on unrooted Android M....
Try the Market anyway,
One solution for me on Android 6.01 was to disable WiFi, Bluetooth, Airplane Mode, Mobile Data from Quick Settings using Systen UI Tuner in Settings then downloaded Settings Extended app at the Market and moved all mentioned in SE's Notification Shortcut. Don't forget to enable "HIDE LOCK SCREEN NOTIFICATION" in Preferences which is the objective of all this anyway. So don't forget to click this.
You can even disable everything in Quick Settings and instead put them all in SE Notification as Shortcuts. What's great about SE is that its Notification gets the icon color/shade/background color/color when toggled etc. perfectly in Android 6. Exactly the same. It looks like its really part of the Notification Screen except that there's that horizontal gap that separates the notifications and makes the screen fiddle faddle.
Try it anyway. It might be your only hope against lock screen vulnerability in unrooted Android 6.0 phones.

I have the same problem with my S7. Its weird that you cant change the wifi or bluetooth without unlocking the phone but when you select mobile data or airplane mode you can turn that off from the lockscreen so when your phone gets stolen, the thief can so easy turn that off that there is no way to trace your phone. Why do they even call this a smart phone while its so dumb?

I must apologise first, I’m not a nerdy-head about android, but I was thinking about my new phone (upgraded to A7) and your question is one that I sought out for answers.
In Nougat, I logged in as Guest and used a pin for the user so that a ‘guest’ can’t access the Guest account without my permission.
Then comes you’re question.
You can remove all the worrisome quick start icons from your quick settings (probably leave flashlight). Then use a 3rd party app (Notification Toggle is mine) which isn’t available to a user from a protected login.
As I’ve never had a lollypop viable phone I’m afraid another user might need to help you with a more detailed method for A5.
Hope it helps somewhat. As an old 8080 machine code programmer, it was always about solving problems and then working the bugs out. I'm not even sure how to post on these - socially thingy’s.
This issue it's still there in Nougat, so before it is passed on to Android O, we have to POPULARIZE this issue so they(Android developers) know how big of a pain in the ass it is. I'm posting the complaints to every forum, magazine, fan page, etc. When it's on the social media, they have to do something. This issue has survived because people don't want their friends to know about it, coz it's partly embarrassing...
I have version 5.0.1 with pattern lock, with the apps Lockwatch & Smart Lockscreen Protector.
But it's useless when anyone can just access the quick settings from the lockscreen and switching off Wifi/Data or turning on airplane mod..
There is any way to block access to this toggles? Or even to the whole Quick Settings?
I can live without access to the flashlight in lockscreen if that a problem..

Wrong section bro, post in Q&A, by the way, why would you bother someone disconnecting your wifi and Bluetooth, they can't turn on 4g and all that things which cost money in monthly plan.
One scenario comes in mind. When you lose your phone and want to use device manager to find the phone. If someone stole your phone, can easily put it in airplane mode so you can't locate it
Wonder why Google can miss this. Just like screen still turn on when on pocket with ambient display ON.
If you unlocked, you can try Cataclysm or N5X. Both has option to disabled it. Hope this help.
Slimlp also has this. Stock, no
Im unlocked, but "clean" rooted (stock rom+recovery+kernel with cf-auto root).
Since google added SELinux at enfoce mod by default in Lollipop (which avoids OTA installing at any state of Root), i'm considring to install a custom room.
But if to be honest, I really don't want to (I hate to mess around with all that thanks the crappy Galaxy S3 I had.. I bought the Nexus 5 in thought I could stay with stock+OTA and enjoy "clean" root+Xposed.. Apparently Google had other plans )
So if someone have an idea to avoid access to wifi/data/aiplane mod toggles from lockscreen, I will be happy to hear.

As already stated, only with custom ROM. There is no other answer.

Anyone can press the power button on your phone too.
Quick access to the radios is useful.
Until 4.2/4.2.2 anyone could just connect a cable to your phone and use ADB to pull everything off.
Don't give your phone to strangers or place in unsafe places.

None of this is possible with a locked screen. Accessing the radios on a locked screen can prevent you tracking it. Sure, like you say, it can be turned off not another issue is accessing the guest account and installing malicious apps and making calls. Bit of a security hole if you ask me.

Not with a recovery lock and locked bootloader. At least my data is safe. Whats wrong with wanting a safe phone? Why have a lock at all if it can be semi-bypassed by quick settings.
You're right though, would be nice of TWRP also had recovery lock. At least we still have philz for now.
But yeah, I can get YOUR data no matter what you do, even after factory reset, but doesn't mean everyone can.
Its kind of like say "dont bother locking your doors because we can break your windows". We all still lock our doors.
I also think that this is a very serious issue.
When I lock my phone I want it to be locked completely not partially.
Have anyone figured how to disable quick access on locked screen (locked with password, pin or pattern)?
And also to remove camera icon?
The only thing i want on my lock screen is to enter my password and see notifications (this is something I am able to do alredy =))
Thank you!
I am hoping on an xposed module :angel:

The 'Quick settings' menu can be edited - when the phone is unlocked open quick settings panel and tap and hold any of its icons, you will be allowed to remove or add some functionalities. Just remove 'airplane mode' and 'mobile data'. This way when the phone is locked no one can disable its connectivity.
The drawback is that you can't switch the airplane mode easily even when the phone is unlocked.

Start fresh is always the best option for things like that. AOD isn't hardware related it's software. Something broke somewhere or somehow

I am in the same boat..!
AOD just stop working. (Stock Rom, no root etc)
I basically tried everything.
Clearing AOD, data, cache.
No luck.
I even resetted device settings.
No luck.
I suspect something/app "broke" AOD.
I can set AOD etc, but it just
not working.!
I also notice that device /display /screen saver
is not working.( if you set /enable it)
Factory reset is my very last option.
If i cannot pinpoint culprit app or maybe an update
that "broke" AOD,
i guess I'll be wasting my
time to Factory reset.. just for AOD to "break " again?
once i re install my +- 200 apps. etc.
Any suggestions?
See if the proximity sensor is incorrectly detecting something.
AOD will not turn on if the proximity sensor is engaged, and even if it turns on it will turn itself off if the proximity sensor is triggered for a few seconds.
Use any app on the Playstore.

I'm having the same issue on my S7 Edge. Tried pretty much everything, even installing several different firmwares (7.0 official non rooted) and no signal of AoD or Nightwatch. Altough, if I use a 3rd AoD app it works flawlessly.
All sensors are ok, phone is running smooth all the time....
I've spoke to Samsung technical support in Live Chat and they say that this is a software issue that is about to be solved by Samsung in the next SW update. But honestly, even trying different firmwares, factory resetting the phone, AoD working in 3rd party apps, and still no signal of default AoD makes me wonder if this might be an hardware issue... Just don't know what because as far as I know AoD is SW only (right?).
I have a couple of friends with updated S7 and S7 Edges and all of them have the AoD running smooth.
If anyone finds a solution for this please just share it
I have the solution
Download the app "NOUGAT QUICK SETTINGS " and grant the ADB permissions on usb debugg. Then you activate the ambient display tile and turn it on in the Quick settings bar. Do it and you aod will back.
Here is the solution
Easy and quick
1. Go to SETTING
2. And then go to "Lock Screen and Security"
3. Click "Always On Display"
4. Turn "Show always"
Done.
Same issue on mine since few days, it's note 8.
I even put the original Samsung theme back, still no luck

Hello,
My kids have Huawei P9 Lite Mini and using Screentime lab application to moderate the phone use: however they have recently discovered that Ultra Power Saving as a way to by pass screentime and keep running their favourite apps.
So, how the heck can I get rid of Ultra Power Saving? If I root the phone, is there any chance I can hack the setting and disable the possibility to activate such Ultra Power Saving mode?
I would be truly grateful to anyone who can help me with this!
Cheers,
Daniele
You can't disable it sadly. Huawei phones cannot be rooted anymore so the only thing you can do is to password lock the apps they use.

Thanks sir! Unfortunately this Ultra Power Savings ruins the whole idea of screentimelabs.com as it kills the background running application. Putting password would not allow them to use the phone during the allowed time, so I'm at a dead end :-/
I read about some portals that sell Huawei bootloader unlock codes but it sounds suspicious, plus I'm not still sure whether with Tasker or other tool I could change the core of Settings and disable that damn UPS...
Thanks anyway for your input!
I have finally found a hack to do this!
So the general idea is that the UPS setting can be accessed in 2 locations, one is in Notification Shade, the other one is in the phone setting. We will just block/replace these 2 access points then we are good.
1st, install the "Power Shade" App, it replaces the system Notification Shade, so that the UPS cannot be reached from the Notification Shade.
2nd, use any parental control apps / self control apps to block kids from opening the "Power Shade" app and the phone setting.

But you can still access ultra safe mode from Settings/Battery and turn it on from there. To fix that you have to install a launcher like Nova to, and block/hide settings from app drawer.

Hi all. In this Video the reviewer states that he isn't getting any notifications with the screen off. Also it is a problem for one of our members. Is anyone else having these hassles? Do you get incoming text, email AUDIO notifications without waking the phone?
Hi
I have no issue with notification at all..
Even when screen is off ..
U do have to active notification from each app setting and alow all permissins...
Also keep in maind to keep app running remove battery restriction from app setting also..
All will work normal
Working for me but I did need to grant WhatsApp and Trurcaller lots of permissions.
I even got True Edge installed for a visual way to get notified and that works brilliantly with the device asleep with screen off.
I was a bit surprised at the extra level of permissions needed. It's all gravy now, but I could see why a reviewer or somebody unaware would get caught out
But yes, I am getting notifications with the screen off in sound and visually, without having to wake the phone.
Indeed at first I wasn't getting any notifications but then I discovered you need to go into the app info and give permission for notifications and turn off battery saver.. now it works perfect and only for the apps I want
The video the OP posted is exactly whats happening to me. I have all the settings as described. Battery saver turned off and even when into each apps settings and allowed ALL permissions just to see if it would work. As the video says, notifications come, but you have to wake the device to see them, there is no sound or anything on screen until the device is woke. Exactly as the video describes. I do hope its fixed soon, I am back to using my Note 5 whilst my beautiful 10 Ultra sits in its box.

Have you undone your earlier modifications to the phone (copying files from phone to phone etc)?
You have two problems and the one to ignore for now is louder notifications. It's notifications at all.
It isn't something to fix from Xiaomi's view and it is always worth learning the software. I don't like it myself... It can be cloying etc.
But the default behaviour is to opt in to notifications. It's working as intended. That said look where we are, it's just your problems are a special case. No biggie, let's fix this!
You have an outstanding issue clouding this where you are trying to use unexplained files on the device (like seriously what format are they? Does it work in Music or anything? Have you tried removing them?)
Took a while but I get all my notifications now when screen is off, see 2vattached screen shots
Thanks all for answering my question! I think this is my last question before buying from Liaow.com, if the syncing isn't a constant problem. Does anyone have a major syncing problem as explained in this review? Once or twice a day I can deal with. I check the calendar throughout the day like most people. However if I get busy and forget, missing calendar events/alarms wouldn't work for me. I'd be forced to use my work iPhone<shudder> for calendar events lol.

How did you get the icons to show on the lock screen?
Mine doesn't. Quite annoying.
Also sometimes the lockscreen doesn't show me notifications even tho they are there.. :s
I have no issues with icons displaying while locked. You do need to enable them and ensure they start automatically and power control is turned off for the app. It has been much easier in the EU ROM for some reason.
Solution!
Here is the thing that helped me with the same notification issue! Just google "xiaomi mi 10 ultra notifications" and in the top 5 links you'll probably find an article from: theunpopulartraveller. It explains the settings, and they need to be accessed by pressing and holding the app icon ^ app info.
Don't give up, try and you'll get the sounds from needed apps back. And ye, actually now I find the way Xiaomi did it much more convenient: I just turned on notifications for 2 apps, and all the rest are silent, while previously I had to turn off all the rest of the apps (much more than 2, definitely) not to get disturbed by all the bull****.
EU Rom doesn't have the "importance" option at 30/31
Well after trying to update to 12.1.1 and seeing what a buggy heap of junk it was, I factory reset, installed 12.0.15, and formatted data. But now notifications don't work when the screen is off whatsoever, absolutely no notifications. Beautiful. I'm so sick of the software issues with this phone, I'm definitely never buying another Xiaomi phone at this point.

Disable adaptive notifications from setting. I dont know what google thinking when creating such feature.
it basically interrupt the whole notification process. Using so called Ai to decide, when to give you notifications or when not to. But most of the time it pick wrong decision and delay our notification altogether.
This is android feature since Q thus also causing problem on Pixel phone. On xiaomi seems like it suddenly got worse on Android 11

Have you checked each notification that it has no battery optimisation set, also, check in notifications that each one has access to the lock screen. Since A11, notifications have been a pain but for some reason they do work much better on the EU ROM.

There are issues for Gpay and some banking / local safetynet apps for EU ROM which i do not wish to live with.
Somehow the props file in the eu rom causes those issues.
i am probably going to rollback to 12.0.15... now is the excruciating 160 hours wait for unlock.
You obviously don't follow the EU forums. GPay works, safeynet works and my UK bank works. But you also get everything plus more than the Chinese stock and all updates are based on both weekly and stable stock ROMs respectively.

i don't follow it to the tee, but i've seen some reports of some users not able to use gpay out of the stable roms.
that's why.. too much trouble.. i'll see what i can do when the unlock timer is up..
