Hey Im writing a launcher, in which Im building my own custom lockscreen.
the custom lockscreen is an activity which being launched whenever the screen is off (by listening to Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF)
to disable android's lockscreen I use this code:
KeyguardManager keyguardManager = (KeyguardManager) getSystemService(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
KeyguardLock lock = keyguardManager.newKeyguardLock(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
lock.disableKeyguard();
It all works good, till some point, in which android's lockscreen is turned on again (like it has never beem disabled before).
It happens a lot on samsung galaxy 2 (but happens also on other phones).
What Im I doing wrong?
thanks!
Managed to solve it somehow by calling
KeyguardManager keyguardManager = (KeyguardManager) getSystemService(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
KeyguardLock lock = keyguardManager.newKeyguardLock(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
lock.disableKeyguard();
right before I start the lock screen activity
