Lock Screen Message: Why is this here and how do I get rid of it - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Look through the plethera of areas in the settings and can't find a way to get rid of this on the lock screen:

It will go away automatically after a while. At least, it did on the s8.

Do it several more times. Like the first poster said, after a while (not immediately).

Factory reset fixed it. Along with my issue not being able to delete widgets

[MODS] Notification Bar Icon Removal

I just had success following this thread here.
I removed Time and Battery icons. I will post a flashable .zip for the current ROM I'm on later tonight.
The instructions are clear in SteelH's thread and can easily be followed. However, if you'd like some help, I can try to do it for you. I can't promise anything though.
This was done on NonSense ROM

jtgarza - what ROM are you on?
Also - I think I started getting random FC's for phone.apk after messing with this.
Let me know what ROM and I'll take a look.
i am on Awesome Rom with no sense.

I found out why we haven't gotten our Primes yet.

How do I activate face unlock

How do I set up face unlock guys?

I don't mean to be rude, and I'll answer your question, but you really need to search the forums before posting a question. Secondly, there is a specific forum to post questions to, so try to do that next time.
The face unlock feature is not active in ICS on the TFP right now. We know that a portion of it is installed into the system, but there are no controls available at this time.
face unlock is not that great.
Face unlock is not secure.

But face unlock sounds fun!

you have to be good looking to activate it, if it doesn't work, then you didn't make the cut.
sorry.

I have an LTE Galaxy Nexus.
Realizing that its not secure, it doesnt work as awesome as some would like, and it does not come turned on by default...
Has anyone found a way to make face unlock work? Yes, there are lots of threads asking, no i didnt find any answers on HOW to make it work. If i missed it please forgive me.
there is currently no way to make it work.

i did say currently, there's no CM9 port for us until the bootloader is unlocked.
There was a poster here who found the apk in our system - data/data/ & need root - and tried to install it but it fails to take. So it has some other dependency that blocks it.

Will those even be on the devices we'll get tomorrow? I was assuming those were just put on the pre-release phones.
