Samsung Knox S10 plus (new member question)

[Tagen Etheridge]

Hello
I'm new to the forum so hope it's okay that I'm posting here.

I recently upgraded to the S10 plus from an s9 plus.

On my s9 plus on boot up it would require me to input a pin to even boot into the phone and then it would continue booting up to the lock screen where I would input a pin again or use the fingerprint. I'm guessing this Samsung knox?
Has anyone else got this?

It would come up with a padlock and the animation would be the pad lock unlocking when you've put the pin in..

At first this really annoyed me but I came to like it. Makes the phone feel more secure that someone can't even get to the lock screen.

Anyway

I now have the s10 plus but this doesn't happen. Still says secured by samsung Knox but it just boots as normal straight to the lock screen. How can I get this back?

I'd like the padlock pin on boot up.

Sorry for not explaining that well

Cheers

Is that now the SIM lock?

Is that now the SIM lock?

What is this? I've just found that option but pin was incorrect and it's the same SIM as s9 plus

 

[Tagen Etheridge]

I've found out what it might be called or what the feature is. It's enter pin to start android.
But can't find the option on my s10

 

[Tagen Etheridge]

Secure boot or something

I think its gone with the s10. I know what you're talking about and remember it on my s9 and s8.

Yeah I should have done some more googling before posting as I've found out that it's gone with the s10 apparently.

Was called secure boot or secure start up

Thank you.

Yeah that's gone now

You had to have turned that on at some point. I have an S9, but only have the screen lock PIN activated, so I only have the one PIN to enter after a boot-up.

Here's what I was thinking:

https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...e-quot-secure-startup-quot-option/td-p/825552

Between this and SIM Lock you'd have what used to be Secure Startup.

I remember that Secure Startup specifically talked about "even the phone won't work until you enter your PIN".
