Hi KuRouZu,

I think I may have got to the bottom of this. I have a tasker like app, AutomateIt Pro installed which I've used for years. It's not had any lock screen related rules running since Jelly Bean or Kit Kat but it did have device admin rights and notification access and had a constantly running service. Anyway before going down the factory reset route I uninstalled the app and the problem instantly went away and didn't reoccur. I have since reinstalled it, but at present it hasn't requested device admin rights again (not that that is necessarily linked) and so far no problem. I may remove it again anyway as nowadays it's far less useful than it used to be and I only have one rule active anyway to turn on Wi-Fi when external power is connected.

Anyway just a bit of feedback in case you encounter anybody else with a similar issue.

Thanks for your help in trying to solve this.

Got to report... Nexus 5 CM13 Nova Launcher pattern unlock, does not unlock yet recognizes my Wifi. Always tells me the first manual unlock has to ne done.

Edit: universal version works.

Any ideas on how I could make it work with the pattern-compatible version?

Wifi is ok but Bluetooth is not ok.

I can select devices but after, they are not "active".

UniversalVersion: Best of several applications tested and in my opinion, better than Google's SmartLock, because there is no verification via WLAN possible. Tested on the following devices: Samsung Galaxy TAB3 10.1 LTE (p5220) - Stock(Android 4.4.2)/ rooted, Samsung Galaxy S4 active (i9295) - CM12.1(Android 5.1.1)/ Root activated, WiKoLenny2 - Stock(Android 5.1), Samsung XCover3 (G388F) - Stock(Android 5.1.1), Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) - CM11(Android 4.4.4)/ Root activated and on Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) - CrDroid(Android 5.1.1)/ Root activated.

I am using your tool "smart unlock universal" since a couple of days and I think I might have found a bug that won't be noticed by many people but which is annoying for those who do.

I'm not sure yet that your application is really the problem's source but I thought I can inform you anyway and maybe you can confirm or test it yourself.

device

My device is a OnePlus One running the most recent CyanogenOS 13 (ZNH0EAS2JK). The installed app version is 1.5.2_xda.

problem

I noticed that my own VPN profile/setting is being deleted once I come back home and switch into the "device unlock" state. I will do more tests but up to now this is my impression.

I set up a VPN profile and setting. I can use it, disconnect, reboot the phone and everything works fine but somewhen later, once I enter my own Wi-Fi and thus unlock the security settings with your tool, my VPN profile has been deleted.

Would be cool if you can have a look at this.

Take care,

Cheers Mort

PS: Besides all that, this tool is great and works perfectly for me. =)

But maybe someone else want to test it anyway with his stock Android Marshmallow by creating a vpn setting and moving out of and back into his secure zone.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
[MENTION=717281]shaarky[/MENTION] as I am paranoid about these things I've been scanning multiple versions of old Smart Unlock versions and previous version 1.5.1 trigger a false positive too . The latest version of google play 1.5.2 is clear, that version was released about two weeks after the xda version. I assume that some library update or android studio update fixes the issue.

In short, I build a new update with latest google library versions to avoid this issue:

Download - Smart Unlock Universal v1.5.3

Thanks for your report.

VPN problem

I was able to confirm this "bug" that deletes all VPN settings and since the requirement to set up a VPN profile is a secure pin I'm pretty sure every device with a modern Android version is affected.

Basically I don't think anymore that it is really a bug but a flaw by design. Google Android won't let you set up VPN setting unless you have secured your devices by using a "more safe" configuration than just swiping. That will be the reason that any VPN setting will be deleted automatically once you enter the Smart Unlock "Device Unlocked" situation, e.g. by entering your home Wi-Fi, because the pin is replaced by a more simple screen lock like a single swipe.

Not fit for MI4

I am using MI4 with MIUI7 and Kitkat 4.4.4. Earlier I had Mi band and unlocking mechanism was working like charm. Later I decided to change the band. Unfortunately, the MIUI7 wont let you to unlock using any other device apart from MI Band. So I started hunting for such APP which can serve the purpose. I landed here and installed this APP to test with my JBL Flip (For testing purpose). As per my security settings, Device should have 6 Digit password and Device will be formatted if 4 Incorrect PIN is provided. Beware that MIUI 7 had a BUG which wont let you to enter 6 Digit PIN at lock screen. Instead, you will have to choose enter Password (Not PIN) and then key in the 6 Digit PIN. Now, after installing this APP, this setting changed automatically from Password to PIN at lock screen. Also, the auto unlock was not working. I GOT STUCK HERE!!! I am not sure why this APP changed the Lock Screen Method? I was left with no other choice and mobile for formatted :( . :(:silly:

I know most of the issues are with MIUI7 and they are least bothered about this. My only expectation from this app's improvement is to not to change the lock screen method.

Thanks

"device locked" - first switch on is still unlocked

actually the app (play store version) does great job on N5X and LG G2 before.

Both devices are rooted and run custom firmware.

There is one issue which I would like to ask if there is anything I can doe to control it.

As title alraedy says, after disconneting from trusted WIFI, the first start is still unsafe even the app notification shows "device locked"

Power button is set to lock device immediately.

When Wireless Router signal is lost, phone DOES NOT lock.

Using Motorola Droid Turbo 2 with stock Marshmallow 6.0.

After disconnecting from my trusted home wireless router and driving out of range the phone is still unlocked!

This is a serious security bug. When the home router signal is lost this app should lock the phone but it doesn't.

I have no problem paying for this app but this major security flaw needs to be fixed before I will use it.

Appears not to work well with S7 edge

I have been using this wonderful app on the Sony Z3. Now moving on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, I have found that the app does not work well. It will detect the safe zone, but it will not unlock the device. :(
[Smart Unlock] latino147:

[Smart Unlock] bouncingstar:
With wifi or bluetooth? Your experience gave me hope! As for me, I have added a wifi device and the app displays "Safe Zone detected first unlock manually" every single time.

With wifi. I'm using the built-in smart lock for Bluetooth.

[Smart Unlock] bouncingstar:
Is your device on marshmallow? I just tried the version of the app on Google Play and upon installation it says that due to changes in marshmallow, the app only works with pin and password. It then proceeds to request for either a pin or password. Then it overrides the security in settings to swipe (it was pin and fingerprint combination before). Is your version any different from the current version on Google Play?
[Smart Unlock] latino147:
I believe it's the version from play. I had installed freshly as i couldn't restore with titanium.

But to be honest i don't remember if i did something in a specific order but i believe i had set up fingerprint unlock first and then installed smart unlock.

That being said, it's not playing nice with the fingerprint unlock. When it's unlocked all is fine, i only need to swipe to unlock. But when I go out and the phone locks i always need pin again to unlock, until I get home or in the car again
[Smart Unlock] bouncingstar:
Your experience is just like mine. The app will override the fingerprint unlock setting and change it to swipe. In summary, this app and the Google play version as well as the Universal version will not work with fingerprint on the S7 Edge, and may be not with all marshmallow variants.
[Smart Unlock] latino147:
Apparently it's an issue on MM to lock the screen from an app. As soon as you do that then Fingerprint unlock is disabled and you're reverted back to pin or password.

Nova Launcher has a fix for this. There are three options to have the launcher lock the screen using a gesture like double-tap:

1: Device Admin: this will require pin to unlock (probably the same method this App is using)

2: Timeout: trick that blacks the screen for 5 seconds and awaits the screen timeout to lock itself (fingerprint lock will remain)

3: Using root

[MENTION=2738303]KuRouZu[/MENTION] [MENTION=545079]hazex[/MENTION]

It would be great if you were able to implement one of these other two options (or both) so we can make it work properly on devices with fingerprint scanners.

[Smart Unlock] lblb:
Major bug–my phone locks me out completely

Hi,

I've discovered a bug that causes my rooted Vernee Thor, Android 6.0, to completely lock me out—it won't accept the correct PIN.

What I did:

1. Unlock by swipe enabled, no PIN at the start, the default setup.

2. Set up multiple fingerprints to use the fingerprint sensor on the Thor. This setup also forces you to setup an alternative PIN to unlock the phone. Interestingly, this PIN is not the same as the regular screen unlock PIN, I have not set up one of those.

3. Installed Smart Unlock Universal 1.5.3 and set up a trusted WiFi, the one I'm connected to.

4. Got annoyed at the need to swipe to unlock when inside a trusted WiFi, so I disabled the swipe option for screen unlock in the android configuration.

5. And it all works. If I'm in a trusted WiFi (I also use a ExpressVPN with that), the phone unlocks immediately after button press. Otherwise, it asks for the PIN. This has worked this way for several days in a row.

6. Now today morning, and I changed nothing the evening before, I found my phone being unable to unlock with the correct PIN. It says wrong PIN. The fingerprint sensor doesn't react. I had to do a factory reset to regain access.

7. I reconfigured Smart Unlock the same way as before, see points 1–4, and in the trusted WiFi it unlocked immediately. Now I switched the WiFi off, locked the phone, it unlocked again one time (another bug I suppose), I locked it again, and then it asks for the screen unlock PIN. I enter my correct PIN, it says "wrong PIN" and I'm screwed. At least I can still access internal memory by USB.

8. I called the phone and I manged to reactivate WiFi and I have established an internet connection, but this doesn't solve the lockup, nor does rebooting the phone.

Now I'm off to another reset and recovery operation and I'm sure to leave Smart Unlock far away from me. This is dangerous.

Not workin with Nexus 6

Hello there,

I love your app. It worked great with my old Samsung Galaxy S III and Sony Xperia Z 3.

However, I am currently using a Nexus 6 (Android version 7.0) and the app is not working. I have tried the 3 versions of the app: Smart Unlock v1.6, Smart Unlock v1.7 Beta and Smart Unlock 1.5.3 Universal. There is no error displayed, the lock screen is just not ommitted.

Could you help me, please?

Tried some other method (pin, pass), but it always asks for old pattern and it wont recognize it. Anyone has some idea how to solve this without doing factory reset?

[Smart Unlock] lulli1:
o.k. thanks - so why don´t you simply go to your TWRP recovery and delete the Quickunlock apk? It has to be in /data/app folder. Boot up and the apk should be gone.
[Smart Unlock] Masinac:
I would if it was there, as I said, I uninstalled it, so its not in data/app (or I'm missing it) but somehow it still starts it unlock screen and accepts its PIN I have set up. Just to make sure that I'm not missing it in /data/app, can you tell me full name of the app as it should be in /data/app?

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I've tried Smart Unlock Universal, its the one that causes problems, don't know if that changes things.
[Smart Unlock] lulli1:
O.k. so, if you have a data backup from before your problem, just go into your recovery wipe data, reboot and afterwards restore your backup. Without backup you will loose your data and settings.
[Smart Unlock] Masinac:
Ahhh, there is no other way that is not involving data loss? I haven't made backup recently :/
[Smart Unlock] lulli1:
Hard to say. If you definitely can't enter your phone anymore, and the responsible app is not installed any longer, what would you expect us to tell you? You can do a nandroid in TWRP and root after wiping. Titanium backup is able to restore app data out of a nandroid. Maybe you could succeed that way and get back your data.... But you should know about a risk to loose the data and get problems with titanium.
[Smart Unlock] Masinac:
I guess you're right :/ too bad that none of the developers is here to tell us where they actually hid stuff and how is it possible that app keeps asking for its unlock code even when it's uninstalled. Thank you for help.

EDIT: I managed to get rid of the lock screen of this app. Apparently Android holds gesture and password info in "gesture.key" and "password.key" located in /data/system. All I had to do was to delete "gesture.key" because I used pattern before, if you have problem with forgotten password you guys should delete "password.key". After that just reset phone, and it will ask you for pattern/password, but this time it will accept any combination, that way you will be able to unlock phone and change the pattern/password to your liking. I've done all of this thru File Managed in TWRP recovery.

Hope this will help someone.

Are there any alternatives that work for android 7.1? Tasker with Secure Settings doesn't work for me anymore.
[Smart Unlock] seaniedee:
The best solution I've found so far is to use AutoTools to set the automatic lock timeout to it's maximum whenever I am within range of my home modem or within range of my cell tower. You could also do it based on time of day. This means that (in my case), as long as I turn on my phone every 30 minutes, the timeout gets reset to 30 more minutes as long as I am at home. So, I set up a task to turn on my phone for a couple of seconds every 29 minutes. When I leave home, I set my automatic lock to 20 seconds.
