I was installing foxfi and it made me to create a password so I used the pattern one but how do I disable it and make it back to default. That option was not able to select.

Standard Android security pin pattern? If so:

Settings > Security and Screen Lock > Screen Lock > Select which you prefer

Your settings menu may look slightly different but generally it will be the same.
 
I did that and and turning it off was not a option

Settings >> Security >> Clear credentials, all the way at the bottom. You may have to reboot after clearing credentials. After doing this all screen lock options will again be available.

Let us know if this works because it sounds like what you're looking for. :)

Or in the same area click on Device Administrators and see if it needs to be disabled.

Disabling Credentials and restarting worked for me with HTD DNA Verizon. I now see Screen Lock options again.

Thanks for the post.
