[Q] Lockscreen effect - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Hello all,
I have the AT&T Note 4 and when I first set the phone up, I was able to select a lockscreen effect. However, I can't seem to find where that setting is located, and I'm looking to change the effect. Is there any way of doing this short of wiping and restarting?
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the quick reply. That location is also where I thought I'd find it, but I don't see an option for it. Attached is a screenshot

It would seem that you do not get an unlock effect while using fingerprint unlock. As you are not swiping the screen

Huh, you're right! If the phone was unlocked, then I got the effect, but when it was prompting for the fingerprint, then I didn't get the effect. Temporarily switching to "Swipe" exposed the option to change the effect.
Thank you!

Your welcome!

Location Based Lock Screen Style

Is there a way to change lock screen styles based on location? (Maybe through something like Tasker?)
My 1 year old daughter has learned how to unlock my phone with the swipe lock screen, so I have changed it to facial recognition, which has adequately secured it from her.
However, when I'm not at home, I would prefer the ease of the swipe unlock.
Is this possible?

I couldn't find definitely that it will allow you to change unlock method based on location (everything else is listed and it's hinted at several places) but you might give SmartShift Lockscreen a try. You can find it here on Google Play.

Thanks for checking. That appears to be a lock screen replacement.
Ideally, I'd like to use the stock lock screen and just update the settings.

In that case I would check out Secure Settings App which is available through Google and has a thread here at XDA.

Thanks for the suggestion!
Couldn't figure out the facial recognition. However, I figured out how to toggle between requiring a pin and not, which should suffice for keeping my phone protected from a toddler accessing it.

[Q] Terrible lag when turning off the screen?

Has anyone else noticed that there a noticeable lag when turning off the screen? The slight fade out animation seems to stutter and there is about a 1-2 second delay from when i press the power button to it actually doing something. This is probably one of the weirdest places for a phone to lag.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm running on stock rooted BTW.
EDIT (more info): This doesn't happen right after a factory reset. I takes a bit of time for it to happen which makes it seem like some app messing it up, but it happens even if there isn't anything installed besides the default stuff.

Could you link them? I looked in the Q&A section and didn't find anything. The search feature is currently down so I cant use that. If this is in fact a duplicate thread, then I'll get it closed up.

Yes I know but I need the original round clock back on lock screen that I had from the beginning, because I took it away, but now cannot find it anymore on widget list.
Hope you understand...

Voice Search when the phone is sleeping

Hello folks,
There's a way to bring up voice search when the screen is off. Anyone know what is it?
I've done it a few times accidentally. If the screen is off but unlocked, it brings up the homescreen too.
Drawing a circle in the middle of the screen with your finger?

Lock screen app icons after 5.01

After upgrading to Lollipop, there are 5 icons at the bottom of the lock screen but I can't find where the preference is to change them.
Thanks for any help.

Similar problem, but with encrypted phone
I am having a similar issue, but my problem is that my phone is encrypted. I am able to use the smart lock feature to access the swipe to unlock screen with the icons at the bottom, but I can't customize the icons because the menu is not available while the device is encrypted. Is there another way to change this screen? I know I have been unable to find one.
I've also tried decrypting the device temporarily to change the lock screen, but the device refuses to decrypt. It sits for hours at the LG menu after restarting to decrypt, and I finally have to pull the battery to restart. After I do so, the phone operates as if it was never given instructions to decrypt. Any suggestions?
