I have a twin. It is possible for her face to unlock my Galaxy. Any female/male twin combos with Galaxy or twins in general. If you haven't figured it out I'm a male. Not sure how I feel about this.
Haha I'm assuming you guys are adults that would suck if you guys were teens bickering someone would be in trouble.
I might have my brother and sister try this out to see if it really works

Well cant test that you should try it out in the same room and position facial expressions etc try it im curious as well lol
My brother has unlocked mine and we are not even twins we just look at lot alike. It worked like 6 out of 10 times witch is pretty good or bad how ever you look at it. Lol. With the voice and face unlock it didn't unlock but with his face and my voice it did. Hope this helps

Yeah I have a twin brother and he can face unlock my phone too.. sooo back to the good old pattern unlock. Until they make thumbprint unlock

fraternal twins are as related(genetically on 50%) as any other regular siblings so this doesn't have to be restricted to fraternal twins but could be asked of any siblings
A picture of your face could probably unlock your phone, no twin required
Now notice I said probably, I don't know for sure

Yea were adults. Were not alike in a lot of ways though. She found it nice but not cool... Girls... Wish I was enthused enough to Google a face palm to her reaction.

I'm not sure how it works but when I set it up and when she used it, it was in the same room. I've unlocked my pone with different expressions so I guess she would be able to. Two important things though. First I think you have to look at the camera and not the phone if that makes sense, my sister agrees. Secondly her hair couldn't really be in the frame.

My cousin (we share the same grandmother) said her twin daughters can unlock her phone... Gets me worried about twisted kids and Google wallet
My brother (14) and dad (46) can face unlock each other's phones.
This isn't surprising to me since my uncle who looks almost nothing like me (with the exception of skin color) is able to unlock my phone with face lock 9 times out of ten. I just figured my phone is racist and thinks all black people look the same :/
Sent from over there....
Yes, I would think so.
i showed me cousin that feature and he also was able to unlock it with his face. that is not secure at all.
In just the right light, I can open my brothers phone with face unlock.

Hopefully this isn't against the forum rules.
I'm looking for someone, I bought a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 from you off Craigslist yesterday. We were supposed to meet up today so I could pick up the box and accessories but I realized now that you don't have a phone anymore, I don't know how to reach you. You gave me your XDA username in case I needed to reach you but I'm an idiot and forgot it.
If you see this, could you PM me so I could get the box, the case piece, the receipt, charger, and extra battery from you?
Thanks
LOL and good luck.
If he sold you the phone I doubt he's in these forums any more.
Hercules Hercules!!
Do a search for his name...lawl missed that you lost his name.
this is literally the good'ol "looking for a needle in a haystack"

Lol, well, I paid him already.
But I do already have the phone, and the case, and the extra screen protector.
The box/receipt/extra part for the case/USB charger/extra battery seems like a weird thing to rip someone off over.
Heh, maybe I'll wait until tomorrow before I go nuts. From his XDA user name I found his Twitter and Google Plus accounts and contacted him on all of them. He's pretty active on XDA.
On the downside, he did mention when I met him yesterday he was leaving the country on Saturday....
On the other downside, he did mention on his Twitter dropping his phone and it slipping under the wheel of a car right before I bought it from him....
Lol. You're kidding right?

Even though he sold you his phone, didn't he keep his sim card? his number should be unchanged...... unless he just totally went off the radar and decided he didn't need a cell phone anymore or switched providers without porting the number.
Hi to all,
Yesterday I was thinking if it could be possible to get face unlock without being displayed the camera image.
I mean I would like to have the pattern unlock screen displayed but if you have your face in front the phone it will be unlocked immediately.
It's just an idea.
Happy new year from Colombia!!

This should probably be in the q&a forum. I would assume the camera view is vital to position your face properly so I doubt this request will come to fruition.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I support this REQ. I don't want to have to see my gangsta face each time I turn the screen on
I agree, dont like other people looking at me looking at myself.... Makes me look like a douche.
I dont think the face alignment would be an issue. Practice makes perfect.
might also be a suggestion that on the fake pattern lock screen, there was a faint face outline..like really dark grey or something.

Hello, today my baby just got stolen by a bunch of ********! somehow after an hour in gym at school, i look and my phone isn't there. I called it and it sounded like a jerk *****. Anyway, i tried to install Plan B but looks like he shutdown the phone or that my stupid gps isnt locking like it always does because of ICS! is there any chance i can track it? I'm a prepaid consumer so insurance is impossible.
You should call the cops and tell them its an iPhone 5 prototype and I'm sure they would get a swat team involved like they did last time.
If Gps isn't working it looks like you might be out of luck bro.

Invest in the app on play market called gotya I swear it works they try and open your phone and put pin a wrong key bam takes a silent pic of them send it to Facebook and sends you a location GPS spot in your email that you can give the police then you get your phone back

What if they know the buttons to hard reset the phone? I mean its not really that hard but the only thing you can do now is call tmo and let them know what's up. Get a police report and file an insurance claim through ASSurion. Assuming you have insurance.

98% of people who own a smartphone are complete buffoons and really don't deserve to have them. The only reason the average Joe gets an expensive piece of hardware is to have bragging rights. Most iPhone users don't know what a jailbreak is nor do android users know what a root is.

I think my girlfriend is going thru my phone when I'm in the shower, going to grab and bite to eat, or anytime I leave my cell phone around that gives her the opportunity to look thru it. BTW..I'm not cheating on her.
Is there an app out there that will log when someone uses/unlocks my phone and or sends a pic of her when she tries to access my phone. I don't believe in unlock passwords, cause I have nothing to hide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!

You could always clear your recent app history and check it when you think she looked at it unless she would know how to clear that. Then you would know what she opened too.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Get the app with the password but give her the password. Set that app up but use nova launcher to hide it. Give her the password upfront but just tell hr you want a secure. But in all honesty, crazy girls like that are hard to deal with. Unless you're very patient and love her you might want to reconsider. I once got in trouble for two girls talking about my small ears in Korean on a subway. Though I am Korean I don't know the language but my crazy gf at the time did. Un****ing real the situations you can go through with women like that.
...
Best advice is ask her.
Yeah people lie, but if you have nothing to hide she should have put that together by now. If you've proved trustworthy and she still has issues then talking about it would be far better then trying to bust her looking for something that isn't there.
Wife and I have open phone policy. Look at it all you want.

Use face unlock. It's not as telling of suspicion as switching to a pin code, but if you're having to assume she's snooping, as opposed to blatantly picking it up in front of you and cruising around it for sh!ts and gigs(my wife) , then it stands to reason that she's not going to confront you about it, if you just decided to use a "nifty feature you like on the phone"

If it was even remotely possible for this to happen there would be a huge violation of privacy laws both locally and internationally. There is no way that China, Korea, Japan, or America would let spy phones cross international borders. If I were you, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
