I'm sure there are a few of you that share annoyance about this. Here's an entire AOSP issue tracker devoted to it: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=79889
I use an NFC implant to unlock my phone. It worked beautifully on 4.4.4 with Xposed. Lollipop brings NFC unlock with smart unlock, but after scanning an authenticated tag, you are presented with an additional keyguard that you then have to swipe. Even if you're simply using pattern unlock, you have to hit that little arrow at the bottom of the keyguard before you're presented with the pattern grid. Unlocking requires an extra swipe. Stupid.
With Secure Settings/Tasker, disabling keyguard/pattern causes the "Black Screen of Death" which renders the phone useless until reboot. As a result, I've stayed on KitKat.
Can a developer implement settings to disable that keyguard conmpletely? So if you're using standard PIN or pattern you're presented with the pin input or pattern grid immediately, or in my case, once the NFC tag is scanned it brings me straight to the homescreen?
Bump. Someone?
Bump
Wanting to implement this as well... xposed module that used to do it on 4.4 no longer works on lollipop

that's weird, in samsung devices, you can set default lockscreen to 'none' and keep fingerprint active.
I had it working on my s7 edge with your original clocker app. I'm not sure about the light version I will try it on my s7 edge later today. The nexus however will not because it will auto delete the prints whenever the screen is set to none.
I really love this lite version, but why do I have to write my pin when I click the widget music? Is there a way that i can play the music without unlock it? Oh and is it possible to add more info on the notifications? What I mean is when I tick no show content can show like '4 messages in 3 chats' like in stock lockscreen. Hope you can read my suggestion, great job :good:
the widget click works together with the PIN you set, i will consider making it an option to set without PIN when clicking widget.

I used the c locker free but it was very slow on start up of my device.
It took more then half a minute to lock the screen.
I switched to the lite version hoping this would faster and it seems to be.
But when I start up my device it doesn't lock and i get a toast saying "auto unlock as system lock is enabled".
In settings my lockscreen option is set to none.
I'm on an Asus Zenfone 2 laser (Z00ED) with stock firmware.

Done. Thank you for the help.
FYI: I Had an other issue.
I just updated my phone and let google restore all my apps, including C Locker Lite. After that i did a reboot, but i forgot to turn off the android lockscreen. When the phone started I saw the C Locker loading screen and then a blank / black screen. without any way to unlock. I could pull down the quick toggles, but nothing else. I waited for about 5 minutes, but still nothing.
Also i didn't wipe my SD, but did wipe data and system.
I restarted again, but the same thing happened.
I went into TWRP and deleted the app from data/app/ with the file manager and restarted. everything worked again.
It's not a problem for me anymore, but it might be for people doing a factory reset without any custom recovery.
good app!
Sorry if its been asked before but I accidentally changed my lockscreen on my honor 8. I can't go back to using magazine unlock for some reason. I've tried changing the themes and display setting but no luck. Somehow I've even accidentally got rid of my magazine unlock pictures in the gallery.
Tl;dr I have two questions
1. How do i re-enable magazine unlock on EMUI 4.1?
2. Can someone check where the photos for magazine unlock in the gallery are located so I can figure out how to get it back? (Press the i icon on the top right when viewing in gallery.)
My problem is the opposite of this. I want to get rid of this
In settings>Lockscreens I cannot untick the checkbox next to magazine. I have already unsubscribed from services and deleted all the pics.
I still have a screen to unlock before I unlock the phone with a patter or password.
In order to remove the changing lockscreens, u just have to set another one out of for example the gallery app...
Or you can just pause at one Wallpaper, by swiping up in the lockscreen and press the pause button.
To get rid of the magazine unlock, you have to go with the Designs App.
There you can edit the current theme.
The Magazine Wallpapers are located in /sdcard/MagazineUnlock
1. Private Space
Settings > Security & privacy > PrivateSpace
Private Space is a separate account where you can hide all of your private files, photos, videos and apps. You setup this account with a pin and fingerprint password. After you're all set up, you can access your private space by pressing the fingerprint sensor which will log you in to your separate account. Your main fingerprint will be used for your primary account and a separate fingerprint will be used to access your private space. It's really fast and secure, which makes this a great EMUI feature.
2. Face Unlock
Settings > Security & privacy > Face unlock
Face unlock technology has gotten so good, that it's now one of the favorite way to unlock your phone. After setting up your your face unlock on your Honor 10, picking up your phone will automatically trigger the face detection. It only takes a fraction of a second for your phone to unlock. I use face unlock with my Honor 10 and it works from all different angles and lighting conditions.
3. App Lock
Settings > Security & privacy > App Lock
In EMUI 8.1, you don't need to download an additional app to lock specific applications with a password. In your settings, you can toggle which apps to be locked behind a four digit pass code. You can also associate a fingerprint with the locked app, so you can unlock with your finger as well. I use the app for my file manage, Play store, Gallery and Snapchat.
4. File Safe
Settings > Security & privacy > File safe
File safe is a security feature that lets you set an encryption to specific files and folders within your Honor 10. When trying to access these files through the file manager, you'll get a password prompt to continue.
How to disable lockscreen pin without deleting the fingerprints. Normally it deletes fingerprints results in we have to enter pin for app lock. And unlock phone using fingerprint sensor also don't works.
