Help Disable Some Unlocks

[pmokover]

Is there any way (either a setting or an app) to disable the swipe to unlock my Droid Razr on the main screen BUT to enable either an unlock password or pattern?

I have found apps that disable the swipe but they also disable all other unlocks.

Thanks.

menu>settings>location and security>change screen lock. You may have to change the time which is within the same menu as the change screen lock option. Mine was set to twenty minutes as a default.

Thanks but that doesn't seem to do what I am trying to do which is: get rid of the swipe on the main screen to unlock the phone and use a pattern or password INSTEAD. This method enables a password or pattern but does not get rid of the swipe. So now I have to swipe AND enter a password. I want password only - no swipe.

Huh? I have no swipe when this is enabled....

Then you have what I want but I can't seem to get it. When I enable any of the optional screen locks (pattern, pin or password) I still have to swipe first.

You have a Motorola Droid Razr on Verizon?

I do. Set the time to screen off. If that doesn't work, reboot it after.

Apparently I am a complete moron. I do have the swipe to unlock. It must be second nature to swipe it because I don't even realize I am doing it.

Sorry for the misinformation......

OK. Good to know it's not just me.

It does seem pointless to have the swipe when you have another more secure unlock enabled. Friends of mine who have Samsung Android phones do not have this problem. When they enable a pattern or pin the swipe goes away.

My original message was to inquire as to whether there is an app that will give this behavior to a Razr. So far, no luck.

You could run go locker.... I think it will allow customization of the lockscreen. I've not used it, so I'm not sure the control it offers...
