GOS has a duress pin feature fyi.

FYI, for folks using a normal PIN and looking to use this, it's intended that the 2nd factor PIN at least be different than the main unlock PIN. Otherwise you can just swipe up to dismiss the fingerprint prompt and get to the main PIN prompt; if its the same as your 2nd factor, that's pointless.

I was told on the Graphene matrix channel that the most secure configuration for this is:
Main unlock method: 6 character diceware password
Secondary unlock method: biometric + 6 character 2nd factor PIN

Be aware that if you use this config that you will be prompted for the main unlock method (long password) at reboot, and also every 48 hours.

Oh wow, I'm getting more jealous

I'm still hanging on my Samsung A-series phone because of the microsd card slot (and also don't feel like spending $500 for a phone at the moment)

If you're worried about paying $500, I got my 6a for $200 from Best Buy (I checked beforehand to make sure it would be unlockable)

Thanks for sharing! This also kind of clears up my confusion that I mentioned I'm the EDIT at the end of my post. I was wondering what the real benefit to this is but it seems like a password as the main with the pin and bio as the secondary seems to provide:

• Main unlock: More. Secure with password?

*Secondary unlock: "quicker" but also secure due to the pin with the bio.

Is this more or else the right idea?

Thanks for sharing, this is indeed a great feature and makes GOS even stronger! Just enabled and love it!

For the home screen, I keep the regular PIN, so I have to type instead of using fingertips. But for apps that requires authentication (after you are already logged in), it's really convenient use fingertips instead of the pin for convenience.

It was refurbished lol

There's an old app on FDroid called AdminControl that let's you set this up on other ROMs. Basically just disables biometrics for lock screen.

Nice! One commenter did point point some important context though. I recommend reading the "EDIT" at the bottom of my post plus a comment from someone named @ashaam or something like that. Just to make sure you get the full context of how this actually works! I wasn't fully aware when first posting.

There is an app called Private Lock that will put the phone in lockdown if the accelerometer is triggered to a certain degree. It can work even when the screen is off.

Can confirm it works on Android 15.

In addition to this

• require pin to unlock, but fingerprints for apps

GOS has a nice feature

• require two factors to unlock, pin PLUS biometrics
• duress pin, wipe phone if used
• reboot phone if not unlocked in x hours

Of course it also has the standard AOSP mode

• private spaces, hide apps unless unlocked

Which is different than the

• workspaces, can use different biometrics

And if your very paranoid GOS supports many user profiles, which can all have their own distinct biometrics and pins, this works with their cross profile notification system. So you can keep your banking apps in a totally different profile and if you get mugged they won't see the apps (or you could use private spaces as well)

The police cannot clone SIM cards or hijack IMEI without a court order, and if they have a court order to do that, then it's trivial for it to include orders to compel you to unlock your phone/SIM anyways. This doesn't really protect you.

It is not about police hijacking IMEI, my bank only provides 2FA with phone number, and the password can be reset using the OTP they send to my phone. I know the bank is terrible but where I live all banks do same thing. So if my phone ever gets stolen they can just remove the sim and put it in another phone and get access to the Bank account. Also did I mention you can also get username from OTP to your phone so, yeah I should probably not use any bank and go live in mountains. But SIM lock helps.

Yooo ive been wanting this for years. They should totally bring back pattern unlock for this.

Oops forgot it
