I have received an XDA IIs from a collegue, and would like to sync it with my notebook with my Outlook, but it's full of all his Outlook stuff.

How can I blank out the phone so that when I sync it with my notebook it will remove all of my collegues data and just leave mine?

Hey guys, I'm hoping someone can help me really fast! I am selling my Note 3 with Safestrap and I was able to do a factory reset in the stock slot but all of my photos and internal storage are still there. What do I need to do to clean my phone off for the sale but still keep Safestrap installed?

Any quick help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Guys, I have some sound files that I don't want the play music player to see when I'm playing music in shuffle mode.

Is there a specific folder I can put them in?

Or maybe create a folder with a specific name that the player won't index?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riekr:
Simply create a .nomedia file inside a folder and that folder plus all sub folders will be hidden from most media players

Lockscreen/Keyguard Disabler​

What is lockscreen disabler and what do I need it for?

Sometimes you may face the problem that you are forced to setup a device pin or password everytime you want to unlock your phone.

There may be different reasons: some companies require such protections when you want to receive emails onto your mobile device.

Another public reason is: you want to use VPN on your Android smartphone. To setup a VPN you are forced by the system to setup some kind of security.

This module is for all the users who don't want to be forced to use a protection, although using the services descriped above.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damages to you or your device, nor for any consequences that result from using this mod.

This mod is intended for testing purposes and not for bypassing security policies or guidelines in your everyday (work-)life.

Long story short: here it is now: A module that simply hooks into the lockscreen's callback, wether there is a password required and mocks, that there is no password needed for unlocking the device. As the password is still active in the background, other apps (especially the apps that enforce such password policies) will never notice this little hack.

There are no app-permissions required.

Installation

Install the Xposed Framework, install the APK and enable "Keyguard Disabler" from the module overview in the Xposed App. After a restart you can start using the standard Android "Slide-to-Unlock" again.

Download

Source code

Find the source code on github!

New Settings-Interface V1.3

Supported Devices

The module should work with the following Android versions

Any pure AOSP android version (Stock, ParanoidAndroid, Cyanogenmod, etc.)

HTC devices or devices running a ROM with Sense 5 or Sense 6

Samsung Touchwiz devices are reported to work

Credits

Thanks to:

@sirlatrom and @gsamtan for their very good support with this module, because it wouldn't be what it is now without their help!

Nice, worked on my Nexus 5 with stock 4.4.2. Do you think it would be possible to enable/disable lockscreen keyguard without the need of a reboot? That combined with Tasker integration would be awesome (no idea if that is even possible), as the option with Secure Settings isn't always working..

But as the module is now it worked perfect for its purpose. ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] PAGOT:
I think we are working for the same company :D. Anyway, did not yet install you. But any idea what to install on top of this to have some sort of security? Like a second pattern unlock. Had it like that on iPhone.

Exchange password hacked and installed android pattern.
[Xposed Framework Modules] LucasR93:
I'm glad it is working for you. The next update will have the possibility to quickly enable/disable the "hack" without the need for a reboot.

A little 1x1 widget would be nice, too, just like a quick toggle on the homescreen, time based automatic enabling/disabling,.... there are a lot of thing that could be implemented ;)

Maybe you can use some 3rd party apps like LockIt to add some security to your company's email account? I don't know how secure it is. Adding a second lock might be possible, but it would also be 3rd party, as the native lockscreen is still running with you password protection.

If you have any other ideas to make it useable for you, just leave me a message here :)

[Xposed Framework Modules] LucasR93:
Thanks for your log - it seems to be 4.3+ exclusive at the moment, as in earlier versions of Android the keyguard worked different. I need to read through the sources of Gingerbread and ICS to find points to place a hook for the older Android versions.

[Xposed Framework Modules] AddamsonFlint:
I am totally a fan of your efforts- I too am in this boat and it annoys the crap out of me.

We use IBM Lotus Notes (unfortunately) cuz our upper-mgt is stuck in the 1980's when it comes to tech-mentality.

The IBM Lotus Traveler app had device admin control to enforce a lock screen password.

I have researched and tried so many patches, fixes, work-arounds, etc., and NOTHING has worked thus far.

I think I can create something in Tasker to accomplish what I want, but I'm new to Tasker and don't quite know how to build the right setup yet.

But I am fully motivated to ultimately find something that will work.

I was excited to see this Xposed Module. Unfortunately...it didn't work for me.

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I will keep an eye on this post for any updates/fixes.

Thanks again for the effort on this front.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sirlatrom:
In a similar situation here. I might have to add that I tried in 4.3.
[Xposed Framework Modules] LucasR93:
[MENTION=4564159]AddamsonFlint[/MENTION]

Hi, thanks for your feedback. We also use Lotus Traveler and it is horrible to have these passwords. I'm sorry that it is not working for you. What device and Android Version do you use? Can you provide the log that you can find in the xposed app under menupoint log? Would be very helpful for further investigation in our enemy :P

[MENTION=2690883]sirlatrom[/MENTION]

Okay that is really interesting, because you are the first 4.3 tester who gives feedback here. If you could provide me with your device name and the log files from inside the xposed app I can start troubleshooting. Thank you!
[Xposed Framework Modules] StonerSteve420:

[Xposed Framework Modules] dtreth:
Could you include an option for disabling the lockscreen altogether? I want to use this in combination with NFCSecure, and it's better now without the password, but it's still not quite perfect.

Again, as is it's amazing.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sirlatrom:
I disabled all other modules, restarted my HTC one Sense edition running Maximus HD 21.0 (Android 4.3) and still I had to type my pin. I tried changing to password instead of pin, but no luck.

Here's the scarce log output. Obviously I'm using version 1.1 of your module.

[Xposed Framework Modules] LucasR93:
Hey guys, happy new year! Unfortunately development is paused at the moment, two other guys were contributing a lot, but they are not active at the moment like me.

I can not tell, when and if there will be an update soon. Adding additional lock methods, under the deactivated lock screen is quite dificult from my view, as I stated some times in the thread already. I don't know if this is possible and of course securely to implement.

If you have JAVA skills, I can only encourage you to have a look into the github repo at the moment.

Have a nice day
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
No problems :) I just want whatever was done in v1.4.6 to be in the latest version, as I don't like the green update available message in Xposed. It's the most recent version that works with Samsung lock screen options.
[Xposed Framework Modules] el.mariachi:
missed calls

On my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone, the missed call lockscreen notification doesn't show the caller-id of missed calls as soon as a secure lockscreen would be enforced (e.g. because of installed certificates).

Is there any way to make the the Samsung MissedEvent widget believe that the lockscreen isn't password protected?

Thanks,

Love this idea! I have a Galaxy S5, and I'd love to be able to have the fingerprint lock and VPNs. (Right now I can only select a PIN or password, which is less secure.) It DOES indeed work with your Lockscreen Disabler (i.e., disables lockscreen altogether), but I was hoping to find options for using the fingerprint unlock as well.

Right now you have options to select "no lockscreen" or "slide to unlock"... Could you add options for the other unlock techniques as well? (Options attached) Doing a Google search, others are seeking this as well. I'd happily donate!

Tasker toggle widget

First of all, thank you so much LucasR93 (and other contributors) for developing this app - it's exactly what I've been looking for to allow me to bypass entering my PIN while having the option to quickly toggle to it when needed.

I wanted a widget that would let me quickly toggle between Device and Slide unlock. At first I tried adding it to the app source, but I'm new to Android development and it turned out to be more than I could handle .

Fortunately because the Broadcast Receiver was implemented, I was able to throw together a basic solution with Tasker. It's a widget that when activated, first reads the current setting from the preferences file, changes it to the opposite value by sending an Intent, and lastly updates the icon to reflect the new value. It's not pretty but it gets the job done.

Sharing the source in case anyone else had been wanting to do something similar.

Firstly, many thanks to those who built and maintain this app. It's working just great on my Nexus 5 with 5.0.1 on Sprint. However, I am noticing some significant memory and battery issues and thinking about 5.1 using the Xposed alpha. I noticed in the 5.1 Working/NotWorking thread that Lockscreen Disabler is in the NOT category. Just wondering if there are plans to update. No pressure. I'd just like to maintain the functionality and if it's not planned (or possible), then I just have a decision to make. Thanks again.

[Xposed Framework Modules] physcofish:
Does anyone else have an issue that when the module lock screen method is changed with tasker the new setting doesn't take effect until the screen is unlocked. For example if I have the module disabled and tasker sets the module to slide-to-unlock while the screen is off the next time I turn the screen on I have to enter my pin before slide-to-unlock takes over. Just turning the screen on and off is not enough to change this.

This is mostly an issue when going from slide-to-unlock back to disable as unless I turn the screen on and slide to unlock it once after the tasker task is triggered my device remains in slide-to-unlock mode.

This is on a LG G4 with the stock deodexed image from TheDriller.
