So You mean that You have to swipe (normally unlock) screen and then it asks You for a PIN?
If so check in lock screen or security settings.
There should be an option for that.
Can't remember exactly, as I'm using CM.

Yes this..
There is no option for this in 4.4.2 ..it was in 4.1.. so thats why i 'm asking if there is any mod or something to enable this? because i can't find any...

Maybe try to set a pattern lock instead of pin lock (temporarily) and then this function may appear (i has something like that on one rom).

Better unlock functionality in 4.2?

Would it be possible to (or does some rom already have it that I don't know about) make it so that lockscreen widgets in 4.2 can be fully expanded by default and then unlocked just by swiping the unlock up? So basically the widget could be shrunk back and the phone unlocked all in one motion?
This would basically unlock in a similar way to HTC Sense. I'm just not a huge fan of having to first shrink the widget and then unlock as it feels like a totally unnecessary step.
I think Xylon has quick press and hold to unlock, but I found Xylon to be pretty unstable on my VZW nexus. Could that functionality be ported to any rom? If it matters I'm running Liquid Smooth Beta.
Any help would be awesome. Thanks.
Team sourcery rom has auto maximize widgets and long press lock key to unlock phone. Works very well for what you are looking for

right, I've done that but it still takes two swipes to unlock. One up and one to the right. Not a huge deal but I'd like a quicker unlock option.

When the widget is expanded, long press on the little lock icon.

I don't think that option is available in CM10. I think it's just like that by default.

How can I modify my lock screen?

Is it possible to modify the pin type security so that after I enter my pin I don't have to push okay, but rather it just goes through? Preferably without using a third party lockscreen?

On my Evo3D there was a setting for this running CyanogenMod. Haven't found it yet on a S3 ROM.
Are you stock or using a custom ROM?

I thought maybe it would lie in the feature.xml file, but I haven't seen it.

On carbon the feature shows up after you finis setting PIN and go back to settings/security.

I'm on MOAR 4.01, and nothing like that there either. Lockscreen and Security tab don't show that option.
I asked this question a long time ago. I asked if there was quick pin (no hitting okay, just like the cyanogenmod ROM) and got no replys of any touchwiz roms with that feature. I wish touchwiz had it.

i hope work on Xperia Z Jelly Bean v3 ,im gonna to test it ,thanks bro
so its not a default thing on stock ics ?when have a pattern,slide screen goes disable ?
It is not a problem. In Gingerbread, it was the usual, first slide, then the security option. Starting from Ice Cream Sandwich and all firmwares after it, the slide screen does not occur if any other method of security is being used. So, if you use pattern or PIN or password option, slide screen does not occur. Just to save time.
oh,thanks my friend for complete answer

[Q] [Help Needed] How to flash my Note 3 to stock android

Hello everyone,
I just received my used Note 3 (T-Mobile) today that I bought from ebay, but when I turned it on I found that this phone has a custom rom installed.
As for the moment I don't want a custom rom and I want to use the stock software version on Note 3, can anyone please help me how can I do this???
Phone model is: SM-N900T
Android Version: 4.3
Build number: Darthstalker note 3 version 4
I live outside the USA and it would be nice even that when I flash to stock rom I will have my phone unlocked to use with my SIM cards here on my country.
I was searching a little online and here on the forums but I found that I couldn't flash to stock rom because of the 4.4.2 rom.
If anyone can help me, I will really appreciate it...
Thank You
Regards

Thnx phil,
Another question
I have successfully updated my Note 3 to stock 4.4.2 T-mobile but I haven't seen the new updates that comes with 4.4.2.
For example I don't see the camera icon on the home screen. Or I still have the tabs apps and widgets on the apps homepages.
Did I make anything wrong or I have to install any launcher or something else to make this other changes available.
I attached a screenshot to show you what I mean.
Thank You
P.s
I am sure that I did the update and I am running 4.4.2, at least this is what at the ABOUT DEVICE shows
I still have the tabbed app drawer, which is fine with me. As for the camera shortcut, try settings>device>lockscreen and make sure the setting is selected

Thnx for the fast reply.
I had secured the lock screen with pattern this is why I was not having this feature.
I changed it to swipe and everything is OK now.
As for the tabbed app drawer do you know how I can remove it??? I want to have only the app icons without the tabs showing.
Thnx again
Try hitting the menu button in the app drawer and playing with all the options.
