Hi everyone,
Huawei is no longer allowing to use custom launchers (Nova in my case) without activating the default lock screen (PIN)??
It's showing the message that only default launcher can be used if I disable the default lock screen.
Is there a way to bypass this?
I want to use Nova Launcher and Next lock screen. But then the Face ID and Finger Print unlocks don't work. I'm forced to enter the PIN.
Thx..

As the title says I m looking for a way to disable the default lock screen. I use s2u2 but all ways get double locked and its just freaking annoying. So if any one can tell me how to disable the default lock screen that would be much appreciated.
Thanks
I don't have this problem, but I'd like to know how to assign the long press of the right phone key to access the S2U2 lock instead of the stock lock screen.

You own an lg incite before?
Use RhodiumHardwareKeyRemapper. Just do a search on here for it.

Depends on your type of rhodium and ROM, I suppose. I use Co0kie's Home Tab (CHT) and use that lock (which has music player controls as well), so can't remember how to do it without (and not sure if can be disabled in 6.5, although CHT gives you the option), but try:
Settings > Menu > All settings > and uncheck "prompt if used for".
Probably does not work and/or you've already tried it so sorry if it is patronisingly obvious!
Disable default Lock screen
This is something from Jackos W6.5 Roms. Great Rom, but he also suggests disabling this, and using a different lock screen. I use S2U after running this. No double lock now.

Will this allow S2U2 to be the lockscreen when you hold the right phone button down? My lockscreen has always been disabled and after installing S2U2 I had zero problems with double lock. I would just like to be able to make it the default so that when I press the button I get it instead of the WinMo lockscreen.
I have pattern lock screen enabled with widgets. I installed gravitybox and enabled the option to maximize widgets and hide pattern dots until touch. But it does not work. Have anyone get it to work in any way?
Thanks
Is it possible to remove the shortcuts on the lock screen? Extremely annoying when you launch apps instead of unlock your phone.
You know you don't have to touch the lock icon right? You can literally swipe the very top of screen to unlock.

In order to change the lock screen, you need to change the apps on the Sense home screen bar. I just tested. Delete the apps from the bar at the bottom of the Sense Home screen and that will remove them from the lock screen.
Hi,
I have enabled FDE on my G4. This makes it impossible to switch back to swipe or any other lock screen type that would allow me to change apps shortcuts on said lock screen. That's ok if you always have the PIN code keypad displayed on the lock screen but if Smart Lock is enabled and there is no need to enter a PIN, the default lock screen and apps shortcuts are shown. I can't modify these since the settings app considers that it is not relevant to my screen lock type and doesn't show the Shortcuts option.
Is there any way to launch the lock screen apps shortcut activity manually?
Thanks,
Yes!
Change the screen lock to Swipe. This is the only way it'll show the shortcuts option!
After you set the shortcuts, set the pattern or any other unlock method again, and the shortcuts will stay
Nevermind. Just read you can't change to swipe.
Oops.
You need to launch a specific activity of the lock screen settings app. I used Tasker and the Secure Settings plugin. The app name is 'Lock Screen Settings' (not 'com.lge.provider.lockscreensettings'). The activity is called '[Shortcuts].ThemeSetting'. Launching that will open the screen where you can edit the shortcuts.

Same problem here, thanks for the tip. For me secure settings complains that it doesn't have permissions.
Are you rooted?
I am.

Try this:
- disable smart lock completly and choose swype as unlock option
- go out of settings
- enter settings again and go to "lock screen"
now there should be the option to edit the shortcuts. After that just enable smartlock again. I remember that i did it like that but i don't have a FDE.
Hello everyone, I bought a Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite recently and I'm missing an option. I wish I could lock the screen using fingerprint. just like I use to block. Are there any ways to do that?
I thank everyone.
Nope, only for unlock and slidedown gesture
this or double tap to lock would be perfect functions
Maybe it is a lousy advice, but try Nova launcher. You can use an option to lock screen on long press of main screen button - I'm using it right now it's quite useful.
