So on the lock screen on CM10 M2, you can have shortcuts on the lock screen, "slider shortcuts." One of the sliders, the 4th from the right, doesn't show up. I assigned a direct dial on that space and it doesn't appear or activate. I also tried with apps, it didn't work. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?
I posted this in General, but have not had any responses.
I am currently using the stable CM10 and am wondering if there is a way to separate the screen unlock (simple swipe etc) from the security lock (pin or pattern) features.
I would prefer my screen to turn off after a few minutes or with power button, and then when reactivated require a swipe (puzzle lock etc) to access apps. The idea on this is preventing accidental app activation in a pocket etc, but having quick access to slider short cuts.
However, I would like it to require a secure pin or pattern to access after a longer preset time (some longer time out). The idea here is my phone is found or stolen from me, users can see my info on the home lock screen but cannot access anything else..
Is this possible?
Thank you ,
Don
Hello,
I was wondering if there was a way to allow widgets in conjunction with a pattern lock screen. My widget locker setup works fine but part of it has a camera hot-spot using uccw. The problem is that every time I click on it, I must input my pattern to access the camera. This is the same with every other widget on my lock screen. I am confused because with the sense lock, you are able to access the camera without entering the pattern. It is only until you try to exit out of the camera that it'll ask you for the pin- this feature is something htc calls "tourist mode" I believe.
Is this possible with WidgetLocker? Why must the pin be entered in order to access any of the widgets. Is there a way to only require the pattern for the phone unlocking process instead?
Thanks
I have my Screen lock set to "Swipe" (the default) but I feel it's too easy to unlock the phone. As well as swiping where it says "Swipe up or down to unlock", you can also pull down the notifications menu and then go into Settings and press the Back button (which unlocks the phone rather than going back to the lock screen, which is the behaviour I would expect and want). Also, if I swipe across to the camera and press the Back button, this also unlocks the phone (again, I expect it to go back to the lock screen).
However, if I change the Screen lock to Pattern or PIN, the lock screen actually functions as expected and I cannot pull down the notifications menu or leave the lock screen via the camera.
Is there any way of replicating this behaviour with the Screen lock set to "Swipe"? In other words, I want to swipe to unlock, but I don't want to be able to pull down the notifications menu or leave the lockscreen unless I have actually swiped to unlock.
Well I think this is the standard and right behavior for all phones. It was the case with the GS2 too. There's no point in disabling accessing the notifications menu when there aren't any locks. It's only makes sense when you lock your device with pattern or pin.
Unfortunately I don't know any apps or modification that can help.

Hmm, OK - thanks for the information. The point is that it is too easy to accidentally unlock the phone - the lock screen should, well, lock the phone. I guess I could have a pattern or PIN unlock but it should be an option to have the same behaviour with swipe.

widget locker has pretty fine control over that sort of thing, including a disable notification bar toggle. i'm not sure if that actually works, though: i'm using delayed lock as well and that overrides some things.
Hi,
Under screen lock I marked swipe.
It stopped working.
When I press the lock button, the screen just appeared like the none option is marked although the swipe is marked.
I have tried the following:
Restart
Shut down
Change user to guest
Clear credentials
Change to password and change back
After changing to password go to smart lock and make sure there are not trusted places
After changing to swipe the smart lock option is grey like it is set to None.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I recently updated to the latest ElementalX kernel (1.15) and am experiencing the same issue, lock button doesn't lock or wake up screen, gestures work fine though.
Edit: After hard resetting the lock & wake functionality is back to normal!
