I'm working on disabling the lock screen and I'm running out of ideas.
I can find it using ES File Explorer and I can kill tasks - can anyone figure out what I need to do to get rid of the annoying lock screen?!
Could I sideload an update that would essentially make Lock Screen.apk an empty app?

I have installed this Dashclock extension and it is asking me to enable notification access for it to work. Where is this setting? This extension works on my phone which is running CM10.2, on my phone I had to manually enable the app via notification access, so I assume I have to do the same here, but I don't know where this setting is?
Hi,
did you find a solution? I've tried quick shortcut maker and found the menu, but it opens just for a second and then changes to wlan settings panel.
I need to make changes here, but how?

Hi,
Could someone kindly provide me with the current settings apk as i was a bit daft and forgot to back it up whilst trying to mess about with lock screens.
Cheers
Please delete thread - worked out how to do it
can you enlighten the rest where to find it?
Yes sure. I Extracted the update-kindle-juniper-35.4.6.1_user_461013820.bin file using 7-Zip and when it creates a folder you need to traverse to:
System > App and voila There are the main APK's so you can keep this as an apk backup area in case you mess up like i did
oh sorry i though this was about replacing the settings.apk witht he stock android one.
No it was putting the currently Amazon one back in - I tried a stock android one and had nothing but problems with it. Whether it is because there are 2 Amazon Settings apks
AmazonSettings.apk
AmazonSettingsPermissions.apk
Also the option to change lock screens does not show visually in the settings menu, but if you add a lock screen it will send you to the hidden settings option (Notification Access) to enable to the change which lock screen receives notifications.
Tried long and hard with this if you add a stock settings.apk lock screen option gets a bit corrupted and you cannot preview edit original one.
I really wanted to mess abit more with lock screen but looking at the apks for the Amazon rom:
LockScreen.apk
LockScreenPreviewer.apk
LockScreenSettings.apk
LockScreenSettingsPreviewer.apk
I didnt know if normal roms has 4 different ones??
Greetings dellow xda dev's, I am currently running a Tmobile galaxy note 3, with the newest stock odexed FOL1 firmware, rooted, running twrp 2.8.5.0, I hav been installing apps and setting things up all day as a recent problem has forced me to factory reset my phone. Due to the way I use tasker to lock my phone (using secure settings to set a password) and restoring the old tasker profiles, my password appears to have been corrupted in some form or another as I have entered it a bunch of times and it won't unlock, claiming that the password is wrong. I have spent most of the evening looking at exploits and bypasses but none seem to work with my phone, there is no password.key file in the data/system folder, and deleting the gesture.key doesn't help. Using android device manager I can send a message to my phone and 'lock' it, but there is no unlock option anywhere on the screen; until I hit the home button and it simply sends me back to the normal lockscreen, and whatever new password I punched in with the manager doesn't work. I have tried several flashable zip files (lockscreen security bypass and pattern password disable), I have also tried everything mentioned in :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620456 that article, as well as poking around in adb and in twrp's file manager, as well as some old lockscreen vulnerabilities (sadly copy and paste do not appear on the emergency dialer or the password field).
I am rather desperate to get my phone unlocked without a factory reset, as I just barely recovered from one recently, and need my phone for work tomorrow morning. I do have some tasker and autoremote profiles running that will tell my phone to setoff an alarm through tasker, and that will alert my phone to when my tablets battery life is low, but I don't know if either of those will help. I do not have any trusted bluetooth devices that can unlock the phone, nor do I ever seem to find a password reset/forgot your password option after typing in my password.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated and tried come morning before work.
I installed Next Lock Screen and desired to get rid of Zen UI's Lock Screen completely, so I rooted my phone and installed Titanium Backup and found its entry "com.asus.lockscreen". I have already removed a few other Asus pre-installed softwares, but I'm not sure if removing this thing will bricked my phone since it has a "com." in front of its name. What do you think, is it OK to remove it?
1st off, don't remove it, just disable it from Settings. Also, all Android apps really have com before it, because of the package name, "com.somebody.appname".
Hi
I'm trying to run this command on boot:
Code:
settings put secure sysui_keyguard_left "com.devuni.flashlight/com.devuni.flashlight.MainActivity"
However, I cant find a way to make it run at boot. App Init.D can execute it on demand (sometimes works), but never at boot. Kernel Auditor is not working as well (nothing happens).
Please, what else can I try to make it work on Oreo 8.1 stock ROM, rooted with Magisk?
Thanks in advance!
-Or at least, is there an app to create 1x1 widget to execute this script?
-Is there any way to change icon of the shortcut? This one shows only white circle as an icon. However, same app had normal icon, while set as shortcut on alternative lockscreen app... Or is this not possible?
Please, I have this issue since month, and I cant push it trough. It is last issue with my new phone, but I am afraid I will fight it for maybe months more! Unless I will get some help maybe...
