Hello,
So I am adjusting the phone of my little brother, the problem is that his SIM card is blocked.
So without doing anything on purpose, I realized that there was a little bug that would let anyone have access to your phone without entering the SIM card PIN code! Nice security OOS13!
Watch this..
I don't think this is normal.
Edit: Maybe it should work on OOS12 too, since it's because of Google Assistant on the power button.
Edit: I changed the action to power menu instead of the assistant to prevent it.
if the sim card is blocked why not just remove it instead of doing that!? seems pretty dumb to me lol
Well i also have os13 I'll chk
Unless it has bee manual changed, on my fully 9 pro, fully stock A12 - On os12, the default action for power button is to launch the camera, click and hold launches the NFC payment cards stored on the phone.
I attempted to copy what you did.
The pin entry screen you used, is that from a cold start? Meaning is that the one that appears when you turn the phone on?
Great find through, hopefully it will work for others on A13!

Indeed it's a great find.
Did you set a SIM PUK lock pin or just a pin passcode? With google assistant on. I believe the video is showing the SIM PUK lock as attached. I will turn on assistant for a11 and report back.
Edit: I created a power button macro on Android 11 to open assistant, it does not bypass the PUK
LOL

I just blocked the SIM card then I wanted to turn off the phone, I pressed the power button and the google assistant appeared and bypassed the phone.

Not really a fresh start since I first used the phone without SIM card, then put the SIM card in, and discovered the bug.
Edit: Even after a restart of the phone, so a fresh start, it works... I don't know what the reason behind this...

My guess is they had a big brain idea at the end and said "let's add google assistant to the power button!" And integrated it too low in system loading. On a11, I can't get the macro to do anything before puk code, probably as it's not got system loaded yet. But in (a12 supposedly has an option in pixel phones for long press assistant also )a13+, that assistant is integrated as system. In A11, It's locked down. I didn't try with my password removed so it can be unencrypted, maybe it would load some of the system.
At any rate, it's a really funny find and if it's existed since a12/a13 and nobody has mentioned it, that may tell us how many people use the sim lock.
Did you try it on a reboot with a regular pin/passcode on the device as well?

Maybe, we will probably never know why...
I did not, I've removed the macro because I don't want the phone to be open to everyone, now it's in my brother's hands!

Just upgraded my N5 to Lollipop and was thinking of setting up Smart Lock from when I’m at home and at my desk at work using NFC tags. I use a four number PIN to unlock my phone, which is getting a little tiresome.
Is this even possible? Not sure what the range of a tag is – would I have to place the phone on it or would it be enough if I put a few tags around the house? Also how to I go about programming the tags to unlock – can I use the phone for this?
Thanks
You need to tap the back of the phone with it, and then you still need to swipe the screen to unlock it, you set it up by going to settings>security>smart lock>trusted devices
Thanks for clarifying. Didn't realise that I have to tap a NFC tag, so that won't be suitable for my purposes. Smart (Un)lock with a Bluetooth device should work though, and easily cover my flat. I could buy something small and cheap that I can always leave plugged in, acting as my personal unlock device - any ideas? Probably won't even be using it, perhaps a pair of Bluetooth speakers?
As for having to swipe to unlock - that's perfect and exactly what I'm looking for. Just want to avoid entering a PIN when at home/work
I'm using my smart watch as a trusted device and then, no need to unlock, just swipe up.
You could use something like this ring if you like wearing rings.

I've noticed that with a smart device setup (have the Bluetooth in my car setup) that while the device is connected it does not go to sleep. I would expect some pretty nasty battery drain if you're always connected to a device. My phone battery lasts the day with pretty moderate use with 15-25% left. If I kick it up a notch then it seems not last the whole day, or at least need charging at the end of the day.
I wonder if people see the battery drain with the smart devices connected all the time...

This would indeed be the easiest solution to the “problem”, but I'm just not into smart watches… seems like yet another device I have to check and I want a watch that lasts for years on one charge. Speaking of smart watches, one of my colleagues was just handed the developer edition of the Razer Nabu at a conference – that’s definitely something I’d consider getting for my better half who walks a lot at work. I has some interesting functions apart from the usual step meter.

Thanks for the suggestion, but rings just aren't my cup of tea. Maybe a cheap BT speaker such as http://ebay.to/1tdepnM would work? I could leave it plugged in at all times in a hidden spot and just never use it.
Regarding the device never going to sleep - that must surely be a bug? Or the worst design decision for a while. Have you tried other BT devices?

Fantastic, thanks! I'll give this a spin right away
Edit: works like a charm here at work. Got the smart lock message upon the first unlock, subsequent unlocks are just a swipe away
I was so excited to finally have a use for my NFC tags when I heard about the Smart Unlock feature.
First thing I did was put a NFC sticker on my vehicle dock and added it as a trusted device. Sure enough, the phone doesn't ask me for an unlock pattern; great! HOWEVER, there is just one little problem.... After unlocking, I'm presented with the "New tag found" full-screen message which you have to manually close EVERY SINGLE TIME!
What's the story here? I've done some digging, and there's even an Xposed module to disable this message. This simply cannot be the way that Google intended for this feature to work.... Any ideas?

I found a fix for that, give me a min to find it again
I can't find it again.............I do know that it used 2 apps, and one was a sort of tasker app that you told it to do nothing

Thanks all the same, but I still think that there has to be a simpler answer here. Using a third-party application (or two!) to mask the problem cannot be what Google intended.
Google intended for NFC to be used to transfer between devices... The tags are more of a third-party support. Download Trigger, and all you have to do is register the tag. You can even set it up to do things like launch your media player, activate Bluetooth, turn up your volume, etc.
I used an expired transport card which has an NFC chip. Stuck it on the car cradle and works just fine. No need to click away any message after the initial pairing

That may be what was originally intended, but Google has since added other features that are built in. For example, you can write a WiFi access point to a tag and it will now connect automatically WITHOUT the need for third party apps like Trigger. I still don't believe that a third party app should be required for smart unlock to work as intended.
I'm starting to think that perhaps it is the type of tag I'm using, or perhaps there is a "null" record that can be written to a tag which will prevent the built in reader from popping up.

I'm not sure why you're so against the app, but regardless, you should try it out. Use it just to write to your tag. Uninstall the app afterward. Should still work as you want it to. I have one in my car that I configured with Trigger (when it was still NFC Task Launcher). Haven't had the app installed on the last few phones I've owned, but it still works as intended - turns on my Bluetooth, ups the media volume, and launches Play Music.
As far as your tag, I believe you are correct. I vaguely remember a similar issue some years ago where the tag kept prompting with that empty message.

It's not that I am against the app (or any of the others in the Play store)... And you are 100% right, there's a lot of functionality in those apps, and it can certainly solve my issue. It's just that when Google adds a feature like this, they don't *require* you to download an after-market app for it to work. And a full-screen popup whenever you approach an NFC tag set as a "trusted device" literally BREAKS the feature in my opinion. I'm just trying to get to the bottom of it and find out what I'm doing wrong.

Do you have some kind of app installed which performs actions upon touching an NFC tag (eg trigger)? I had the same messages pop up every-time, but once I installed an app and related a "display on" action to it, the messages stopped. If you don't want the tag to do anything just let it do something trivial, like enabling mobile data (which is probably enabled already anyway when you're driving). I hope this works for you.

Freeze Tags.apk with TiBu. Profit.
Nfc Tools
What your phone does when you touch an NFC depends on the URI that is written on the tag. You can easily check that by downloading NFC tools and scanning the tag in question. If the tag is writable and you want nothing to happen when you touch it with you phone, try writing following URI to the tag with NFC Tools: bad://access/development
Exactly, what the title says, "Launching camera from lock screen/sleep mode not working". I actually have 2 brand new HTC One M8's and both phones do not launch the camera in landscape orientation. Am I missing something? I looked through all the setting and couldn't find anything that was associated with this feature. I tested it with lock screen and no lock screen but it still doesn't work.
I'm really disappointed in HTC. I bought an upgrade only to find my first HTC One M8 defective - multiple sim cards not being recognized. I tried everything - layers of tape on sim card, new sim card, factory reset, airplane mode on/off, putting it back in and out 100+ times, cleaning the sim card, compressed air in slot, etc. All failed results.
I am starting to find many bugs on the 2nd HTC they sent to replace the defective one and I will start a new thread in regards to another bug to keep these threads on topic. Well, I don't know if they're "bugs" or simply broken features.

Figured it out. I guess it was just user error or lack of knowing. Apparently, the 'Motion Launch gestures' has to be enabled in order for this to work. I wish there was a way to isolate this. Launching the camera quickly is very convenient when you don't want to miss a shot, but I don't need to use all the other motion launch gestures. It'll just wake my phone while in my pocket or make "butt" calls.
Hello everyone, I have an unlocked international Play and I've set only security pattern and several fingerprints activated start-up security, which means every time it boots up requires a pattern input before loading the system.
However it just happened to me that after I shut down and reboot, it asks me for a password which I have never set. I've tried also my google account password and it doesn't work and in the end I have to hard reset my phone and lost all data.
Before this happened I've used this phone normally, updated to October security update, installed normal apps... the last two app I've installed is Fingerprint Quick Action and Disable Increasing Ring. I suspect it was one of these two or the security update... but honestly speaking I have no idea what just happened.
So now after reset I abandoned pattern and just use password directly just in case this happen again, FYI.
When you set a pattern or a fingerprint, you are required to supply a PIN to get into the system in case you forget your pattern or for some reason it won't accept your finger.
I have no idea how you'll get around this without flashing and starting over.
Hope this helps in the future.

Hi, on my device password is not required to set a pattern... perhaps you can try to clear your security pin and try to set a pattern, Play will not ask you to set a password.

This is right actually, this has been my experience with all my devices, whether they had a fingerprint scanner or not.
If you didn't have to set a PIN then I don't think it is normal.

I had also faced this, I think it occurs if you enable encryption. What you need to do is enter the numbers corresponding to the pattern in sequence. For eg, if your pattern is the first row, you'd enter 123.
This is in case you have set pattern as the security feature instead of security pin. Sorry you had to wipe your device but quick googling would have helped you out.
Hope this will be useful to someone else in the future.

Apparently my Google skill requires improvement... Thank you so much anyway, so the pattern is actually treated as number pad, gosh.
I previously had a Galaxy S9+ (android 9).
I wirelessly (and wired) charged it overnight.
In the morning, the fingerprint reader would unlock the phone - no problems.
I (only) ever needed my PIN to unlock it after a reboot, or after what "seemed" like many "days" of use.
Now, I have a new S20+ (android 10).
Every morning, after wirelessly (or wired) charging overnight, the phone forces me to use my PIN to unlock it.
There has been NO reboot. The auto-optimize and auto restart are (not) enabled.
Is this forced PIN unlock requirement normal behavior - or is there a setting where I can change this ?
I am half-asleep in the morning, and would like to be able to use my fingerprint to get into my phone - as entering a PIN is annoying and slow.
I have searched around for an answer to this and have seen all kinds of conflicting information - but none relevant to what I am experiencing.
I have seen: PIN unlock needed if --> reboot, or 72, 48, and 4 hours of non-use, or xxx number of fingerprint unlocks, etc.....
My case is simply (overnight) - which is 7 hours, max - so this makes no sense.
Obviously, on Android 9 with my previous s9+ this was not happening.
Anyone have some ideas on this ?
Maybe it's auto restart...
Check under advance menu in device care and uncheck it.
My auto reboot is set during the day but I noticed it rebooted over night so maybe its something else.
I know you say auto-restart is disabled but maybe you can check the battery usage graph and see if your phone did in-fact restart during the night. Maybe due to a crash/bug.
Other than that I'm not sure. And FYI this is NOT normal behavior. I haven't had to use a pin on my S20+ to unlock it a single time since initial setup on day 1.
Hi, hope this answers your question.

i believe new samsung policies is now asking for pin to be entered every now and again but shouldnt be so often - i get it like once or twice a week

Wonderful.
Thanks for that !
Indeed that is exactly what seems to be going on.
I use both face unlock and fingerprints.
From that document you linked, it is obvious that when my phone is idle for 4 hours while I am sleeping, that because I use face unlock, it makes me use my PIN to unlock it
I surely do not like this behavior/rule, but at least I now have the answer to what is going on.
You just saved me the hassle of doing a factory reset !
Tonight, I will remove the face unlock completely and test this to see if I am required to use my PIN in the morning or not.
I will report back here what happens.
This is a great topic. I was just wondering this AM why I need to keep entering in my code every morning.

Nice find! Thanks
I've noticed this also.
I just wanted to confirm that last night I removed face unlock and this morning I was able to unlock my phone using my fingerprint without the need to use my PIN.
I definitely preferred the quickness of face unlock versus the awful fingerprint reader on this phone but at least now, when I get up in the morning, I can easily get into my phone without having to enter a pin.
Thank you so much for your assistance here.
Innit, by the way, where did you get that information from in the first place ?

Hi,
I find the Smart Lock (using Trusted Places) to be very buggy..
Sometimes I find that the Smart Lock just stops working when I'm at my desk.. Whatever, so I try and re-enable it, but I'm never able to easily re-enable it. I follow the same process, but the lock screen doesn't have the unlocked padlock. Rebooting the device made it work, and I also got it to "work" by toggling "On-body detection", and then going back to "Trusted places" (or some odd combination of adding a 2nd Trusted Place). It's a bit frustrating..
It's also not clear to me how to enable the "Trusted places" option. For example, the "On-body detection" option has a toggle to enable it. The "Trusted places" screen has no button/toggle. I tap on the big tile/graphic of the "house with the 4 dots linking to the phone", and I believe that's how you kickstart it?
Lastly, in the Trusted Places screen, it has a note at the bottom saying:
"Your device will stay unlocked for up to four hours..."
Click to expand...

So according to that, it expires at 4 hours? However when I wake up I notice that it's still active..
I have a similar issue were at random the smart lock will just not work and I have to log back into the phone, even finger print option not available. Basically same as if I was to restart the phone. The feature is still enabled so don't need to re enable! I was hoping that getting onto a pixel this garbage will stop happening after experiencing it on my old op6t but as of now the pixel works worse then op.

Ah interesting, so you are experiencing similar issues too..
I wonder if it has something to do with the phone temporarily losing it's current location, and thus forcing a lock on the phone? Not sure..

You would think but I have my watch connected to it as well both wearos or fitbit sense and same issue with smart lock, so not just location limited.
Noticed the same problem here. My old device I just used the rear finger print scanner, it was instant on and in, with the Pixel 6 Pro the finger print reader is neither in the best place or the quickest, and if you are in a dark place and don't aim properly, its a blinding light! So I thought at least at home I can use smark unlock. Worked fine yesterday, today it wouldn't stay unlocked. All settings appeared okay, my address was shown as a trusted place, I loaded maps so it get my location (it was already showing me at home anyway), but just not working.
I then removed my trusted place, readded, exactly the same address from the pinpoint on the map was shown, and it is working again.
I took the 4 hours to mean that after 4 hours you would need to sign in again once, then you get another 4 hours of smart unlock.
Just a buggy piece of Google software I guess.
Honestly I don't think I've ever had Smart Lock that really worked on ANY of my android phone. It works when it wants to.
Smart Lock has been janky since original pixel and the nexii before that.
