Is it a work phone?

You've got an apps that installed a security certificate, usually banking, android pay or a company app, if it's not work related you can try to delete the certificates under security but be warned that apps that need them won't work without them, if you don't have anything like that it's safe to delete

Is there a way to change the lockscreen without root?

Maybe there is a setting that I am overlooking to change it
I hope there is, cause I hate it!

Download agile lock from market, or something like that

you can change the lockscreen wallpaper by going into settings / display / screen display. There is a section for the lock screen. Just click on wallpaper and you can change it. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Looking to replace the lockscreen myself, but in the meantime you can at least change the image on the stock lockscreen by going into the gallery, selecting an image, hit menu->Set As->Lock screen wallpaper
better than nothing!
got it thanks
I used to use WidgetLocker on my Desire when it was still running Sense. It worked generally well. Sometimes it would clash with the Sense lock screen and I had to go through the Sense lock screen after the WidgetLocker lock screen. Though most of the time it worked fine. Maybe it wont have any problem with the Touchwiz lockscreen.

Try Ripple Lock, it's a Honeycomb lock with a single pulltab in the middle. It will replace your lockscreen without root, there is even an option to fix double lock (Galaxy S issue), you will need to enable mode 2.
here's what is looks like.....
I'm using widgetlocker. Put it on my phone about 5 seconds after turning it on. Has been working perfect with no issues.

I have a passcode enabled and my lockscreen is only the screen where you are suppose to enter the passcode. How would I make the lockscreen be a normal lockscreen where I have to slide to unlock and then enter my passcode?
Ditto...WidgetLocker for me as well. Simple quick and easy.
I use lockbot.

[Q] Cant find Lockscreen widgets

I updated my Galaxy Nexus to 4.2 using e587de13bf8a.signed-takju-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.e587de13.zip file.
The update seemed to happen fine, and I can access all new 4.2 features, except the Lockscreen widget.
My lockscreen doesnt seem to go right or left. The Google Now bootom-up swipe asks me to enter PIN, unlocks the phone and takes me to thr Google Now window. A back button there takes me to my Homescreen.
Can anyone tell me if I am missing something here?
Thanks,
It's working fine here
Sliding right takes me to the Camera and sliding to the left takes me to other widgets like messaging gmail etc.
Try flashing again. It might help you

When you turn the screen on, you should see two rectangles on the right and left borders of the screen.
Swipe from the clock down to lower your security. Then swipe left or right to access the camera and widgets. To bring your security back up grab the lock at the bottom of the screen and pull it up.

Tried all those and much more, but its still the same.
Other than this, all other 4.2 features work fine.
Same is happening to me and one of my friends (both on takju).
I could swipe from left to right imminently after the update, but after some time i couldnt anymore. Only the clock widget is present.
Can it be because we have corporate email accounts on the phones and it forces the lockscreen to be PIN?
thanks

That might explain it. Even I have my corporate account configured on the phone.
Any way to workaround this?

Tell me, how stupid would you feel about Samsung when you realize the effects only work when you use Samsung's lockscreen wallpapers?
Ok I am totally speechless now... Thanks for helping me realize Samsung is fooling all of us...

i have rooted my tab s 8.5 (t705) and updated to nf8 but all of the unlock effects are still there. where did you go to enable these lock effects?
it is located in settings/device/lock screen/unlock effect and there are 6 options namely none, blind, brilliant cut, popping colors, watecolour and ripple.

Change to one of your own wallpapers and see if they still work.
I just put a custom lockscreen wallpaper and the effects still work here.

unlock effect still works even if i changed lockscreen wallpaper. the only wierd thing in my tab s is that whenever i chage my homescreen wallpaper, to a live one, it will go back to default wallpaper every time i restarted my tab, this does not happen when a plain wallpaper is selected.

Here's how to get the intriguing Montblanc digital content for free

I just came across this article on Phone Arena. I tried and it works as expected. :good:

worked for me, thanks!
Worked for me on AT&T. I can't seem to figure out how to set the Lockscreen Ink Wallpaper. I'm using Smart Launcher by the way.

It only works if you're not using a secured lock screen (ie swipe)
That's dumb.

You don't have to keep unsecured lock screen though. First change your lock type to swipe, then change unlock method to ink and then change your lock screen back to finger scan or anything else you like.
Thanks that worked out great.
Worked great for me. Thanks for the heads up.
Doesn't work for Edge
I was drifting around and came across this and thought I'd try ...
Yes, I know Edge and Note are different - So please don't flame...
Glad it works for y'all, but unfortunately this tweak doesn't work in this manner for those of us with the Edge looking around for tweaks.
Even though the activity exists and the Icon appears, when you get to the "Download Montblanc content" , the product doesn't exist"...
As an FYI, I'm on the ATT variant, so build.prop editing isn't an option (no root capability)...
The rest of you lucky enough to gain root on your Edge variant, perhaps you could start with a build.prop edit ..
Good luck and thanks for the tip OP
How did you root att note 4?

Galaxy Note 4- Live Wallpaper For Lock Screen Only?

Live wallpaper for lock screen only
The title says it.
How do I do this with out it also being on the home screen?
Not concerned about battery usage and not trying to buy a separate app to make it happen.
I'm trying to use a matrix live wallpaper from Zedge.
Also, how can I remove the status bar and phone logo from the lock screen as well.
I just want the matrix for my lock screen with nothing else except to use my fingerprint scanner.
Thank you.
Without root, you can't
i understand...thank you
