I have a couple questions about the lock screen.

I have a couple questions about the lock screen. I have a note 5 running marshmallow, and when I’m on a lock screen I made I can still access multitasking and open other apps which seems really unsafe.

1) Can I disable hardware buttons on the lockscreen?

2) Is there a way to use fingerprint unlock?

3) If none of those, can I use the note 5s lock? That way I can use fingerprint unlock and what I’m used to.

Thanks for any answers you can give me.

  1. The lockscreen is not meant for security at all. (That is why I don’t use it.)

    1) You can’t disable any Buttons (without root)

    2) Not afaik.

    3) Are you talking about the stock lockscreen? Of course you can use it.

    Lukas Morawietz​ Thanks! New question is how do I use the stock lock screen? When I disable the lighting one, turning my phone in just goes right to the home screen.

    I guess you have to enable it in the system security settings.

    Finally figured it out. Somehow my settings had changed to not require a passcode for an hour after turning screen off. Weird.
