Hi, the universal version is compatible with all devices, including samsung devices with android version different than 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.0.2, so is supposed to work with your device if your s6 has updated to android 5.1. About fingerprint, sorry but the application only works with PIN and password.

Hi, the universal version should work with your device, can you specify what is not working for you? Are you using a custom rom? Regards.
[Smart Unlock] llapao:
Thanks for your reply. I was not using the universal version. :angel:

Now using the universal version, my feedback:

When I use the power button to lock the device the app will instantly unlock it, therefore the screen that was off it will turn on. I have to wait for the screen timeout in order to have it closed.

Note: I was using fingerprint lock but after configuring the pin the unlock is made by pin [this should be clearer at the OP].

Cheers!
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Thanks for testing. Other user reported the same issue about screen turning on automatically. I'll check it out.
[Smart Unlock] angel.martinezsanchez.92:
Yes.

After using Universal version 1.1 (lg g4), I noticed that after disconnecting from my smartwatch (pebble), Smart Unlock would still display as connected.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, there is a new version of Smart Unlock Universal with some bug fixes. We are not sure if the problem of automatic activation of the screen is fixed, we don't have a s6. Any feedback on this issue will be useful. Thanks to all.

Apk link here, and updated in main thread:

Smart Unlock Universal v1.2
[Smart Unlock] Dovidhalevi:
Should everyone be on "universal" or only those with problems with XDA, etc.? Lollipop only?
[Smart Unlock] llapao:
Sorry to say but my S6 still turns on the screen after unlock, I still have to wait for screen timeout in order to have it off.

On a side note, is it possible for you to change the file name accordingly to the version?

Like smart_unlock_universal_v1.3.apk ?

Cheers
[Smart Unlock] alexvtr:
First of all, congrats for a great app. I tried the free version a couple of minutes and immediately bought the paid version to support the dev team.

For the record, I use it without any issue on a LG G2 (D803) with VK5.0 (5.0.2).

One idea / suggestion: On a previous, similar app I used to use (but that doesn't support Android 5+), there was a neat little feature:

An unlock timer

You could set it to keep the device unlocked for a certain amount of time (IIRC, between 1 and 60 minutes, with a slider cursor).

Is this something that could possibly be implemented in this app? I realize Android 5+ brought a lot of different measures related to security so maybe it can't be done, but it's very useful.

Anyway, thanks again!
[Smart Unlock] supadupa111:
LG G4 lollipop 5.1, universal v1.2

Spent some time testing 1.2

1. After disconnecting wifi, smart unlock keeps phone unlocked as long screen is on. It also allows the phone to be unlocked once. However, if screen is off for this second time, it locks or if the screen stays off (from first screen off) for a few minutes, it locks.

2. (Pebble watch, headset bluebuds x) After connecting pebble, headset, then disconnecting headset, the bluetooth smart unlock would not fallback to the smart watch even though the watch is still connected. However bluetooth smart unlock works if I reconnect headset or if I turn off+on bluetooth power either on phone or watch.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi guys, we just uploaded a new version of Smart Unlock Universal. This should fix the s6 problems with screen, but again we need some feedback. Link HERE:

Smart Unlock Universal v1.3

I hope the new build fix the problem. About change the name file, sorry but we will continue to maintain the same name for now, we find it more comfortable to not have to be editing the opening thread in every new version of apk. Although we increment the version number in each build so you can check the version of installed apk from android settings.

The first part of your first point is the normal behavior of the application. If the device is unlocked with screen on, and leave a safe zone, the device will be locked when the screen is off, but not while you are using the device.

Otherwise, it would be a very intrusive and upset. For example, you are reading a message or writing one. Without realizing it, you leave a safe area and your screen will automatically shut down to force the lock, or what would be practically the same, suddenly lock window appears.

I would not want this to happen ;)

About the app allows you to unlock, If I understand correctly, without security after leave a safe zone once time, please try the new version, I made some changes in the unlocking part, maybe this affects to you.

About your second point, sorry but at the moment BLE devices are not supported with any version of Smart Unlock, so some unexpected behavior occur, depending on the brand and model of BLE device.

Well, depends of your needs. The "classic" version allows you bypass the pattern lock. But this version is not supported for many android devices. Further there is no "slide to unlock" when you're in safe area.

The universal version is compatible with all devices. Except using android 5.0, 5.0.1 and 5.0.2. Universal version is more stable but is more limited. Only works with PIN or Password, but you will have "Slide to unlock" screen when you're in a safe area.
[Smart Unlock] llapao:
I am happy to say that now it works as expected in my S6.

I will make some additional tests and will report.

I will buy the Google Play version just to support the DEV.

Thank you.
[Smart Unlock] Dovidhalevi:
Please assign meaningful names to updated versions, i.e. including version numbers. The variety of names I have for versions of this is, well ..., and too many (1), etc.
[Smart Unlock] Dovidhalevi:
Note, both "classic" and "universal" XDA versions can coexist, run either one. I do not know if this is so desirable.

Main thing is, "classic" eats 5m of RAM, "universal" 13m or more. On my device, every little bit counts so I went back to "classic." Since this is not such a complex function, I would like to see this use even less memory!
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
You can have both apps installed, but is not recommended run the two apps at same time. In fact if one of the app detects that the other is running, when you open the main activity, the smart unlock in background will be close, informing to user.

About ram... Is a very low use of ram, and I don't think we can lower this size, we just use android Apis, we don't mess with ram consumption. Regards.
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
So I'm happy to hear that another version of smart unlock supports galaxy

I download then use PIN 123 and try with wifi on. It works :)

Then I turn off wifi and it says incorrect password :( I cant unlock my phone :(
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
[APP] SMART UNLOCK - XDA version - Bypass lock security connected to trusted ...

Hi, sorry about that, have you configured the PIN from the application?
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
yep. I configured it from the application.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
And your device model and android version please?
[Smart Unlock] llapao:
Maybe you need 4 digit pin? Try 1234 <-
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
Galaxy A5 SM-A500F 4.4.4 latest kitkat

I have tasker to turn on wifi but it still cant bypass the locksreen ( I think it requires first time unlock on wifi )

So I try to lock it with Android Device Manager, but ADM cant bypass the pin lockscreen. It doesn't give me option to input new password. Weird

So until now, I still cant unlock my phone

I don't know. Maybe you could try with 3 digit pin to make it sure

Edit: Finally I unlock it via samsung site. I don't what cause the incorrect pin
[Smart Unlock] Dovidhalevi:
On bootup, both of them were running. No ill-effects, but ...
[Smart Unlock] dave_p_b:
Just installed the Smart Unlock Universal app on cyanogenmod 12.1.

Everything worked as expected. Turned the wifi off and on when I was on the lock screen and Smart Unlock behaved appropriately.

It would be nice to have an option for when a trusted network is detected and your screen is off, you can swipe to unlock instead of having to put your pin in one time.

Next I rebooted my phone.

Smart Unlock runs on start up. I can see it in my Running Apps list but no notification appears on the status bar.

To make the notification appear I need to toggle my wifi network of and on.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
We tested a 3 digit pin in several devices, including some galaxy devices, and app is working, we can unlock the phone normally.

Are you using other similar apps to smart unlock at same time? If you can unlock the device with Samsung site without much trouble, you could try again the same PIN to make sure it is a bug that occurs in the model of device you have. Regards.
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
I try it again and still the same, incorrect pin. And now I must wait again until morning to make tasker turn the wifi on for me because I forget to turn on the mobile data
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Thanks for testing. To enable wifi from adb:

adb shell svc wifi enable
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
my device is not rooted
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
No root required to use this adb command. I don't know if is working with all devices. If doesn't work try with same command but using the quotes:

adb shell "svc wifi enable"

EDIT: ouch, root required.

A question; Are you using some task in tasker app that try to unlock the device? Regards.
[Smart Unlock] dave_p_b:
[MENTION=2738303]KuRouZu[/MENTION] After installing Universal version and entering a new pin, my android lockscreen was set to swipe.

What would happen if the android lockscreen was set to something else such as pattern. I don't really want to try it incase it messes up Smart Unlock.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, if you select any lock as a pattern or pin from outside app, when you exit from safe zone, the lock will be reset at the same PIN or password you put when you set up smart unlock.
[Smart Unlock] handgun50:
No, I don't use it because I have tried it and it didn't work too

I have tried cm 12 on my old device and there is cm profile in built that can turn off lock screen when connected to wifi. So, why do you need another app to do this?
[Smart Unlock] dave_p_b:
Off-topic: I set up the CM 12.1 system profiles for WiFi on and off triggers and it worked but after a reboot things went wrong. The phone chose the wrong profile keeping the phone pin locked. At some point when i have time I'll look into it again.

I'm also interested in this app for friends who don't use CM 12.1.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, we just uploaded a new build. This is a minor update, with fixes for the white buttons bug on some devices.

Same link as usual: Smart Unlock Universal v1.3.1

Regards
[Smart Unlock] zivonex:
With the previous version (the one at the OP, the blue 1.3xda) the app works most of the time (sometimes even though I was connected to WiFi and app said Unlocked I still had to unlock the device manually) but I still could use 'knock knock code'.

With the purple one (1.3.1) I can't use knock knock anymore but it works better than the old version so far.
[Smart Unlock] famewolf:
Bug Found with Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3 running 5.0.2 Lollipop.

Scenario:

I went into the program, clicked add a device and went into wifi.....I selected my local router and saved it. I went into bluetooth and realized I had three devices in there I wanted more than wifi so I exited there and went to the wifi device and deleted it. I then returned to bluetooth devices to add all 3. When I tried to exit I got the xda panel about limitation of 3 devices....I unchecked 1 device...it still would not let me exit...I unchecked 2....it still would not let me leave...only after unchecking all 3 was I able to exit and when I did it showed I had 0 trusted devices....I was then able to go BACK into bluetooth devices and select the 3 I wanted. I would assume there's an issue where the deleted wifi device is not being recognized when I go into bluetooth and it thinks I am trying to add a 4th device but I don't understand why I had to unselect ALL 3 bluetooth devices to be able to exit the screen.
[Smart Unlock] mangoman:
isthere a link to the classic version that works with pattern?
[Smart Unlock] TheDannemand:
It's the first one linked in the OP. I use it with pattern on Nexus 5 (Cataclysm 5.1.1) and have no problems.
[Smart Unlock] anarchyuk:
great app
[Smart Unlock] LD17:
Dear all.

I have installed the app in a lollipop and it worked properly, good idea-application.

But then I set up my Exchange email account and the exchange server enforced me to set a PIN. I used the same PIN that the one I used with Smart Unlock, but the app does not skipped that PIN.

Any way to skip that security policy that the exchange server enforce me?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.
[Smart Unlock] bombadier:
Not sure where the problem lies but from time to time smartunlock seems to forget that its unlocked, this happens with tuneinradio or google music so think it could be to do with the app displaying on the lockscreen, the app says its unlocked but I have the lockscreen back and have to toggle my wifi off/on to get it to work again, will try and get a logcat next time it happens, anyone else encountered similar behaviour ? Using a oneplusone and slimsaber latest release.
[Smart Unlock] Blackyyy:
I'm on Android 5.1.1 if I install the app and use it, I don't get any notifications from Whatsapp, Mail and so on. Any Idea why? If I uninstall, all works normally. Tried the universal version
[Smart Unlock] paddymcn:
Universal running nicely on my Amazon fire phone, thanks. Looking forward to ble being operational, great job
[Smart Unlock] galets:
I am sorry if I am repeating concerns which were already addressed, but the search seems to not work on xda-developers today, and thread is rather lengthy

I tested an app, and I know a lot of you folks are crazy about it, but it makes me really nervous how it disables boot-up encryption. I am not sure how it is done, but I assume it either stores password (in this case that password could be retrieved by adversary), or it sets drive password to null. In either case it renders encryption completely bypassable

The way to fix an app would be:

1. never store encryption password, always ask for it on boot

2. probably makes sense to allow longer password for boot, than to unlock the screen

3. on password pick-up attempt (for example: 5 unsuccessful password/pin entry attempts), reboot device

without these measures, the app essentially renders device security useless
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, we just uploaded a new version of Smart Unlock. This fix the issue about bypassing the SIM card pin after reboot the device. Also, the application prompts the user to unlock once after rebooting the device, although not use the sim card pin, if is connected to a trusted device.

Link: Smart Unlock v1.5

This update is only for the classic version of the application, as the universal version does not seem to be affected by the bug.

Regards.
[Smart Unlock] TheDannemand:
Thank you, once again, for providing the XDA community with this very useful app.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
The app still bypass the device lock security after reboot if user don't have SIM card or enter the SIM lock before the app is started. So there is a new version with this fixed and other fix; now if the user already has the screen off and delay lock has been exceeded when disconnected from a secure wifi/bt, the device will lock immediately instead of waiting again the delay lock.

Link: Smart Unlock v1.6

Again this update is only for the classic version, as the universal version does not have these bugs.

Regards

This app looks great but after installing I can't get it to work on my Verizon G4 with 5.1. Any ideas?
[Smart Unlock] bombadier:
Is there anyway that we could reorder the trusted list ? or at least group wifi and bluetooth ?

Still having problems with smartlock saying its active and unlocked but having to enter a pin, usually a toggle wifi off/on will fix
[Smart Unlock] tobby123:
Feature idea

Great app - thx for the good job :)

May be you can build it also as a widget with the possibility to toogle easily between

o smart unlock off

o smart unlock on

o lockscreen allways unlocked (useful when in car or other trusted locations without wifi connection [perhaps only for a definied time period])

greetings

tobby123
[Smart Unlock] mysky911:
Thanks for the update. However, can we have an option/setting to let delay lock remain after wifi/bt disconnected? This is useful for cases where bluetooth disconnected and reconnect due to some interference of frequency, and not physically disconnected from the phone.

Thanks. Regards.
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Is a useful option that we will implement in upcoming updates. Regards.
[Smart Unlock] maigre:
I just installed. Looks good and easy to make sense of. A question — if I'm running Android's Smart Lock at the same time as this topic's Smart Unlock, are there any risks involved because of conflicts. Strange that Smart Lock can't be switched on and off, or so it seems. I like the features in Smart Lock, but find its performance to be erratic. Being limited to WiFi and Bluetooth is, well, limiting, but for me, it covers most of the territory where I'd really want it to work. So it may end up being more useful than Google's implementation if it works more consistently.

Sorry if this has already been covered here. 679 posts are a lot to go through and a search didn't answer this for me other than a post in December suggesting that there might be a conflict.

I see that Llama is on the list of conflicting apps. Is that specific to any particular usage of Llama or is Llama to be avoided with Smart Unlock altogether?
[Smart Unlock] bombadier:
Went to bed last night smartunlock working as it should wake up in the morning and smartunlock is still active(notification is blue Device is unlocked) and yet I have to enter a pin to unlock everytime, have to toggle wifi to get it work again, anyone else with a similar problem ? or how to troubleshoot this ?

Also any thoughts about reordering the trusted devices or adding sub headings for wifi and bluetooth? One long random list is a bit messy

thanks in advance
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, which ROM, device model and android version are you using? I don't have this problem with our testing devices. If you are using PIN to unlock, I recommend you use the universal version of the app, is more stable and more compatible with more devices than classic version.

About reordering the list of devices, we will consider your suggestion for futures updates.

Regards.
[Smart Unlock] bombadier:
Hi I am using slimsaber so android 5.1.1 and a oneplusone, I am using the donate version of the app,

I am using PIN to unlock, happy to provide further info, it seems very random as to when it happens, dont use any hibernate/blocking apps either.

Thanks
[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Probably the problem you're having is for the rom. Since you're using PIN, I highly recommend you try the universal version. If you are already a premium user of classical version (thanks for that!), the universal version will detect it and automatically you will be premium in the universal version too. Regards.
[Smart Unlock] bombadier:
Thanks will try the universal version out, didn't spend much time reading in the op, now I understand the 2 versions, thanks again.

Another idea is to be able to select from a list of saved devices, a minor pain to have to actually be connected in order to add to the trusted list.
[Smart Unlock] jarayn:
Neither version works perfectly for me anymore.

I have the paid version from play and just tried the universal one.

They both are the same.

They say either.

Safe zone detected first unlock manually

Then

Device unlocked

But

It isn't unlocked. It's still on three lock screen and requires a swipe. I expect it to bypass the lock screen completely like it used to.

Thanks
[Smart Unlock] beren:
I installed Universal version, and now I cant disable pin/sequence to go back to swipe unlock mode..

Swipe and none modes under security are grey and not selectable.

Even if I remove smart unlock I don't get these option available.

edit: re-flashing rom didn't helped...really want to avoid a wipe

edit 2: solved cleaning credentials under security settings.

[Smart Unlock] KuRouZu:
Hi, the behavior you describe is normal for the universal version. When you are connected to safe device, your pin lock will change to swipe to unlock.

The classic version disable any lockscreen when you are connected to safe device, but the universal version will give you "swipe to unlock" when you are connected to a safe device. This is due both apps is working different and call different apis. Sorry but we can't disable "swipe to unlock" in universal version.

It is rather strange, it has never happened to us in our testing devices, it seems like you've activated a password type exchange, or have activated the encryption device, which causes you can not choose swipe to unlock.
[Smart Unlock] beren:
don't know...sure nothing about encryption, but probably i mixed the two apps (i am a long time user of the first smart unlock) and also enabled lollipop's smart lock at the same time...this made the mess.

btw after fixing i noticed another problem:

i need smartUnlock only to disable lock screen while driving (BT car stereo connected), but when mobile is disconnected from BT (so lockscreen enabled) it prevents the system's smart lock to work (i.e. my pebble, or location) and i have to enter the pin/pattern even if i am on trusted device/location.

to be more precise, it works if lock/unlock screen within 5 seconds (the default lock screen timout) and stops immediately after.

if i stop+exit smart unlock everything works as expected.
[Smart Unlock] duojet:
unlock first time after exiting safe zone

hi,

this may have been discussed before but I noticed that the first time after I leave a "safe zone", for example my home wifi, the first time I go to unlock, I still don't need to use a password. tasker/secure settings had similar behavior. is there any way to avoid this, and require the pin code the first time it is unlocked from sleep/displayoff?

thanks!

[Smart Unlock] TomTanderson:
Problem with SSID on 2.4 and 5 GHz

I connect to an SSID that utilises both 2.4 and 5GHz frequencies.

If I add the wifi as a trusted source when on one frequency and the phone switches to the other frequency then Smart Unlock locks the phone because each frequency has a different MAC address. If I try adding the wifi again as a second trusted source (with the other MAC but the same SSID) the software won't let me. I get around it by ticking "add all networks with the same name" but this isn't as secure as restricting connections to a MAC address. Is it possible to change this behaviour? This may also be why other people think the software only works sometimes (which I originally did until I worked out what was happening).

While I'm posting, I have to say that I much prefer the unlock behaviour of the original version vs the universal edition (where you have to swipe). I understand that the universal version uses different APIs to support more phones but I hope you are going to maintain both versions or possibly combine both versions into one package with a tick box to select the method.
