    Thread How to disable screen lock? None is grayed out.

    Dumb question or bug? The screen lock has been set. How is this disabled or turned off if "none" is grayed out under security? *Edit* Took a chance and erased the credential storage and got "none" and "face unlock" to show up. This looks like a bug.

    That's great information. I'm aware certain apps run ads, but they can be a bit annoying when you are running an app you like. Adfree is my favorite app and requires root to run.
