Hi,
i have installed Stock with CWM kernel, baseband 70 + doomlord's Acronium ICS rom (full wipe, some apps backup restore) and everything works fine, but i have no default lockscreen. My phone is Xperia Arc S.
When i wake up device by home or power buton, it jumps directly to homescreen without "slide to unlock" screen. I can set lock by pasword, gesture, face and others, but i dont want to lock it, only prevent unwanted operations through default "slide to unlock" screen.
Are there some advices where's the problem?
Thanks
Set screenlock in settings>security>screen lock.

As I write, there are options "picture, gesture, PIN or password", no simple "slide-to-unlock" which I want. I dont want to protect phone by password, I want simple screenlock only.
Try to reflash the rom without to restore backup.

SO I deleted the HTCLOCK.APK thinking I could just use pattern lock but I got the left to right slider came up now. I like the htc clock so it really borks the alarm.
Anyway I've tried flashing MYN rom twice but the lock I had doesnt come up' I would rather not wipe data as I cant grasp why I should have to. The rom should install the lock app back on right? I've extracted it from the rom and tried installing it that way. it fails.

Try going to the htc sense app, deleting data and restarting it or have someone on that rom pull the lockscreen apk. I'm on Fresh, so if i pulled it, im not sure it would work for you
Use root explorer or adb push to put it back in...note has to be in /system/app
Also, locker widget locker (paid app) will allow u to set whatever lock screen u want without them being installed...
Via EVO on XDA app...
Thanks for the replys. I went ahead and did a full on wipe and it fixed it. full wipes arent to bad now that google keeps the apps. As for the aftermarket locks, I've tried that one and lock 2.0 and they both are a little buggy and still dont silence the stock alarm clock.

you need to download a custom lock app form the market called no lock which disables custom screen lock.
Thanks mate,working like a charm now.
I'm using liquidsmooth rom and there's a bug when setting up the lockscreen security settings. I'm not locked out of the phone, but I want to disable the PIN security and just have it as swipe. When I click lockscreen settings I get the error "Unfortunately Settings has stopped working" then settings closed.
I installed holo locker, but it still wants to use a pin number. is there a file I can manually edit to disable the PIN lockscreen and set it back to swipe?
Luquidsmooth rom JB 4.2.2, Galaxy S3
I would just reflash the ROM. Don't bother wiping anything, should fix it.
After updating to 3.2.8 I have issue unlocking the phone. Using my Fingerprint used to unlock it but now it just turns on the screen and asks me to draw the line and underneath it it says 'emergency'. (it does not say that it didn't read my Fingerprint)
Any idea what to do?

I dont want to sound stupid but did you set your fingerprint to unlock phone?

I've seen no such option to set or remove it (and it used to work before the upgrade)
Sometimes it does unlock and sometimes just turns on the screen and sends me to unlock via pattern (again, it didn't fail to recognize my Fingerprint)
Edit :
The issue was with Nova launcher, I had to go to 'advanced settings' and give it root access so it will be able to open the phone normally without asking for pattern

I suggest to clean flash again
Hi,
Question, just did a clean install and setting up my phone.
Before i reflashed my phone I could tap on the padlock on the lockscreen to enter my pattern to unlock the phone but it doesn't work anymore.
I always have to swipe up before I can enter the pattern.
If I remember correctly, it was a setting (or a combination of settings) to get it work but I can't remember...
It was working on both 8.1 and Android P DPx
Any ideas?

It is working for me. I'm on stock 8.1 rooted ROM. I actually always tap on the padlock instead of swiping as sometimes when swiping up I need to do it 3-4times until it unlocks the screen. It's easier just to tap on the padlock. However I don't use any pattern or fingerprint security... ?
