While my pixel is locked, I can pull down the notification bar and access my phone settings (wifi, data, Bluetooth, hotspot, etc.).
Is there a way to disable access to those settings on the lock screen? I don't want those settings accessible until my phone is unlocked.

Did you start another thread with the same title? I can't seem to find it now. But nonetheless, I can't figure it out either. I've seen posts about using the systemUI tweaks but that doesn't seem to work. I kind of believe it to be a security problem since you can disable wifi, data, bt etc. And I really don't want to know how to do it with a custom rom since I'd never run one on this device since my bl is locked.
Bump on this. Is it possible to disable the navigation dropdown on the lockscreen that allows access to all your settings? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
@facted
system allows to access some settings
anyway you can use a lock screen app
I searched and found this and I am using it myself now
Go to app setting and find disable status bar > turn it on and Done!
ZUI Locker-Elegant Lock Screen
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zuimeia.suite.lockscreen.international&hl=en_GB
Sorry to say but this app (ZUI locker) is crap. No finger unlock, thats for starters... I dont even want to get into the other things this program lacks of.
there's a xposed module that can fix this however xposed isn't stable on Oreo yet...
https://github.com/char101/xposed-q...main/java/com/github/char101/qslock/Main.java
maybe it can be adapted for magisk.

Hi guys,
At first, when I bought Galaxy Nexus, it was on 4.0.2. I cannot access settings through the notification panel when using slide lock unless I slide open and I will see the settings menu.
However, now when I patch to 4.0.4, I did not try out did the patch changes the ui. Now, I can access settings through the notification panel without even slide open.
Is this normal? Does anyone experiencing this? Please advise.
Thanks.
Being able to slide down the notification bar and enter settings without unlocking is normal. Unless of course you have a PIN or pattern enabled, then you can't do anything without first entering the PIN or pattern.

Thanks. But at first, when I bought the phone, I can drag down the notification bar, but I cannot access settings straight without sliding to unlock. However, now, I can access settings straight, when I click the settings shortcut, I can hear the unlock sound and den straight to settings. Please advise.
hey everyone. I have a question. I searched but didn't see what I was looking for in this phone forum. I got the N2 on Friday, came from the epic touch. I was running Easy Profiles on the e4gt and wanted to use it again on the N2. Well, I am still am for sound changes. But one of the main reasons I use EP is to disable the lock screen when I was at home and enable it when I was not at home. I know jellybean broke EPs capability for this. So... my question is... what else can I use? I don't mind using a widget but the auto changer with EP was awesome! (and once they fix it, I'll go back to that primarily I'm sure) I've tried no lock and no lock screen. neither disable the lock screen. I've tried all 3 apps with my systems settings as slide to lock, lock with pattern and no lock. it's just not doing what I want it to and I'm at a loss. if I set the system lock to any type of lock, no lock and no screen lock wouldn't keep it unlocked when it was engaged. if I changed the system settings to no lock, the 2 apps wouldn't lock it. easy profiles has 2 different options with the lock screen and I've tried multiple variations with that too. does anyone have any suggestions? ideas? apps to try? I am currently downloading a few ROMs to try out but I'm thinking it's a jellybean issue and not a stock rom issue.
I was in the exact same boat and loved EasyProfiles.
I started using Tasker yesterday and checked out: http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index
I still at noob at it but managed to disable the pattern keyguard.
Now I think it is a JB limitation but Tasker ability to disable kerguard stops once you chose something in the Notification bar.
Check it out, what they say about it true. Tasker is awesome and I'm only now learning how great it is- like automating talking SMS when in the car. EasyProfiles couldn't do that.
thanks. I'll look into it again. I downloaded it last night but uninstalled because I didn't see what I was looking for and didn't have the brain capacity to figure it out!
Try this for starters:
Profile "Unlock wifi" - State -> Net -> wifi connected
Task "Unlock"- Display -> Keyguard -> off
I used that to work yesterday and will play/learn more today.
Like I said though, accessing the notifications makes it lock again so I toggle the wifi off/on to make Tasker disable keyguard again.
I installed secure settings from the market, disabled everything but pattern lock in it. then went back to easy profiles, set locale app as secure settings and so far it's working.
Android 10, screen locked, but can still toggle wifi, bluetooth and hotspot using the drop down quick setting menu. Only location seems to require an unlock. This can't be secure. Anyway to lock it down besides removing the sensitive shortcuts from the menu?
This is annoying because it toggles my Do Not Disturb sometimes while in my pocket.
Hi all,
Hope you are fine. I am using Mi Note 10 Lite and MIUI 12.02 Global ROM. I can access/enable/disable all things (WIFI, Mobile Data, etc.) on Notification Bar when phone locked. My opinion is this is a vulnerability for me. Is there any way to prevent this?
Any help appreciated.
Kind Regards.
Settings -> notification -> lock screen notification -> disable the "Open notification shade on lock screen"
Well, if you swipe to the right while on lock screen (to the camera), you can still access the Notification bar. So for instance, if you lose your phone, anyone can still disable wifi and gps in case you access the "find my phone" option on the PC.

I believe that disabling the status bar on the lock screen is not a security feature, but rather to prevent accidental modification of some settings (in a pocket for example). If someone steals your phone, they can just as well turn it off, remove the SIM card or perform a factory reset, they do not really need to use the status bar at all..
Is there a way to disable notification pulldown on secured lockscreen? An ADB command or a root method is welcome.
This is the simplest portion of security a phone manufacturer could invent - no one likes to get their phone out of their hands and accidentally (or purposely) turn on Airplane mode, DND, Flashlight, etc.
I'd love to hear from someone that does see this as an issue and suggests there should be an option to disable the notification pulldown on secured lockscreen.
I absolutely agree with you. To this day, I can't believe that we can't at least have toggle switches for each aspect of what we want to allow to be done from the lock screen. I know there's a root app for controlling whether you can power off from the lock screen (besides the obvious hold the power button, or hold the power button + volume up, or whatever it is now to force turn off, or maybe that only reboots, but someone can still catch it especially if the bootloader is unlocked and turn off in that state.
I used to use a root app for your purpose exactly, but it stopped working a couple of Android versions ago and wasn't updated.
There are some more complex workarounds but I probably don't recommend them. I forget if Android on the Pixel forces you to have some QS tiles showing, or some quantity, or certain stock QS tiles, but if you have full flexibility, you can disable them all, replace them with dummy toggles (there are apps you can do that with) and use an alternate toggle app such as Bottom Quick Settings, however overall I found the solution inelegant although kudos to the developer anyway.
I just remind myself that I've never lost/misplaced or had my phone stolen so it isn't likely to cause a problem for me. If I'm held up at gunpoint, of course, that's something different, but they would likely force me to unlock my device anyway - I know someone who was beaten with a gun in their driveway until they unlocked their iPhone.
Some OEMs do give you a minor amount of control (like one of the very few kudos I can give to Samsung) - you can control whether you can power off from the lock screen or not, and yet you couldn't control if someone could turn on/off Wi-Fi, Mobile Data, Bluetooth, GPS, and Airplane mode.
Been using this lsposed module for this:

To add to your reply, this will obviously only work with a recent canary (Zygisk) build of LSposed (latest is here) as the current stable build of LSposed only supports Riru & Magisk now has it's own Zygote system which doesn't work with Riru (if I remember correctly?).
Just download LSposed above, flash in Magisk, install above APK, enable in LSposed & select System UI, reboot and it should work perfectly.
I think GravityBox also has an option to disable the pulldown, if/when it becomes available for Android 12.
