As above, I have to pick my phone up and press the power button to turn the screen on and see my notifications. Is there a way to see them automatically?
I have tried enabling "When device is locked: Show all notification content" and this does not fix the issue.

I'm running the latest nfsfan 6.5 rom
I'm not talking about S2U2, I'm talking about what everybody with 6.5 seems to have when they turn their phone screen on. A lock slider near the top of the screen located in the center that you can slide either right or left to unlock.
I've looked around my setting but see no mention of it so I'm using S2U2 in the meantime.
Start button, then "Lock" at the bottom of the screen?

start>setting>system>lock> put any kinda lock you want.. >lock in 0 min.> ok> turn off screen> turn it on
You could also try csdevctrl. It locks the phone when after the device has waken up.

You can also hold down the end key which will bring up a quick menu.
My friend installed 6.5 and his lock screen pops up everytime he turn the screen on. He said it was a very basic instal, no extra cabs or customization.
When I do
start>setting>system>lock> put any kinda lock you want.. >lock in 0 min.> ok> turn off screen> turn it on

it forces me to put in a password. That is not what i want and it's time consuming.
Start > Lock - works but i wish it would just require a slide whenever i turn the screen on
wtf
the way i use it is to hold the End button and automatically locks the screen, that is the best way i have found to use it without having to input a password to unlock, plus i dislike to have 3rd party software to do stuff that the OS should be capable of doing in first place.

Download the WWE-Chobit Company SmartLock 1.7E.cab and install. This will show up in your settings and give you some check boxes that will make life easy.
I tired Cho's app, it messed up my touch keypad.
Had to remove to be able to type letters instead of symbols.
No joy here.

How to activate slide to unlock in winmo 6.5
You can have the screen lock and unlock it with or without a password. Having it with a password lets the phone lock automatically after a specified amount of time. Conversely, without a password you must lock it manually to display the lock screen with only slide to unlock to access the phone.
Just try de-selecting the "Prompt if unused for" box in the lock screen settings:
Step 1: Start menu/settings/lock [Then clear the checkbox]
The password "type" grays out and the "password" and "confirm" boxes clear. Hit OK and it will allow you to unlock without a password by sliding to unlock. The only thing missing is automatically locking after a certain period of time; so you have to manually lock each time by pressing Start, and the Left soft-key at the bottom of the screen (Lock).
You can also change your power settings to make this process a little more automatic. You can have the screen turn off automatically without having to press the power button after you do the start/lock maneuver.
Once you manually lock the phone, the screen will then turn off automatically. The next time you're ready to use the phone; press the power button-screen turns on-slide to unlock. Or if you get a call, you get the winmo 6.5 slide to answer screen (by changing the power setting this way, the phone doesn't power off, it goes into standby.
(This way you don't have to install anything, have conflicts with the ROM, and can prevent premature hardware button failure)
Step 2: Start/settings/system/power [Advanced tab: under "On battery power" select checkbox-turn off device if not used for and choose shortest time interval]
It won't turn off the phone, it'll just turn off the screen after the time you specify and you don't have to worry about accidental dials or button presses. Turn off backlight just dims the screen.
No need to press the power button to turn off the screen (changing the power settings makes it automatic), so once it's locked you can put it right in your pocket. When you're ready to use the phone again, press power and slide to unlock.
Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Buttons -> "End Key" Tab -> Select "Automatically execute the selected action:" -> Select "Lock device" -> OK
Hold the "End" button to lock device.

Lots of solutions to one problem that should not have occured in the first place. Why didn't you copy the iPhone/S2U2's behavior, MS?
Alreading mentioned here but install CSDevCtrl and in its settings
check box "lock when device wakes"
Hi
I am not able to get the device to go into sleep mode (blank display) by touching the power button unless its at the lock screen. Depressing the power button does nothing, other than to activate the quick menu unless pressed for a few seconds. The only time I am able to get the device to sleep via the power button is when the screen has timed out (based on settings) and before the screen in unlocked, otherwise I just have to wait for the screen to timeout.
I cant seem to find anything that would prevent the device going to sleep via the power off button, any suggestions?
Does this happen all the time or only while the phone is charging, as there is a setting that keeps the screen awake while the phone is charging:
Settings>Applications>Development
happens all the time, and I am aware of the stay awake feature during charging
If you're using a custom rom it may have something to do with that. Maybe the key isn't mapped or set correctly. Other then that, that's a pretty odd issues.

Sounds like some buggy program is keeping a wake_lock longer than it should. (The way games and ebook readers keep the screen lit/phone awake).
Had you installed anything new before this started?
New to HTC and dealing with an unrooted phone, coming from a slew of Samsung devices.
It appears the phone will only lock once the timeout has been reached. I'm used to the devices locking with the power button, but it doesn't work this way on the M9 and I don't see the option to change it.

Go into setting > security > lock phone after - change to time you want. I have set to immediately and locks when power button is pressed.
See attachment photo
:good: This mostly does it. It will lock either when you press the power button or when your display times out. I liked how the Samsungs handled it in that you had a choice of screen timeout, lock timeout, and lock with power button. So I could have my screen timeout in 1 minute, lock automatically in 3, or lock immediately if I pressed the power button.
Is there a way to disable the warning when turning data on with TouchWiz ROMs? I'd like to be able to just turn it on from the notification bar and not have to press Ok on th dialog that shows when I press it.
Hi, I have a Galaxy Note 10+ and today I cracked the lower portion of the screen.
Touch and regular display work, however, the "always on display" does not.
In order for me to access the phone from a locked screen off state, I need to:
tap the power button (so the "always on display" awakes), then
plug a power cable so the regular screen turns on, then
swipe pattern
Currently I need the power cable to make this work.
Touch does not get detected on the "always on display".
Is there a way to disable this "always on display" so that clicking the power button starts the regular screen?
Would other unlocking techniques bypass the lock screen?
Can I setup a bixby routine that makes the regular screen turn the on the phone on movement?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
Nevermind. I think the regular screen sometimes is not turning on.
And it is by chance when it does.
Quite unfortunate.
Time to backup everything.
Thanks
Disable the lock screen.
I simply double tap my screen to turn on and off.
Double Tap apk on Playstore.
Update, yeah it will die sooner then later. Replace the battery at the same time. Win-win.
