Hello,

I can't see the 'none' option on my 4.4.2 security settings.

I already read other threads on the same topic, but none of the suggestions offered worked for me, and since the OPs had posted about other versions of Android I thought it would have been better opening a new thread. (to the moderators, if you think I should have add my question to an older thread instead, sorry and pls move it where it works better).

I'll recap what happened: this is an old phone, there was need to change the touchscreen so before getting it to the shop I decided to add a password to lock the screen, an option never used before.

No other change was made, there's only one user, no new apps added.

I already tried to clear the credentials, as someone suggested in one of those other threads, but it didn't work.

This is the screenshot of what I find when I go to 'security':

If it could help, the smartphone is a Wiko Rainbow.

All suggestions about how to restore the option to get rid of the password protection are welcome :)

Thanks!
 
Click where it says Screen Lock at the top, enter your password and then you'll have the option to switch it back to None

Thank you!! So easy, and yet I had avoided to do that 'cause I thought it would have only changed the password.

Again, thanks so much, you saved me a lot of time and from much frustration!

;)

So.. for me, it's [SOLVED]
