[Feature request] Emulate screen lock on Android support

My bank application, starting today, refuses to generate authentication codes for bank access and authorization if it cannot detect a lock screen mechanism. In order to use it, it is necessary to fool the Android side into believing there is a lock set. Currently, Android settings do not allow to set a screen lock.

So, no solution?

@Artur Do you remember how do you get the screen lock in android dalvik working?

@jolla : Can you please implement this feature. There are a lot apps which checking for lock screen.

Sincerely, Helge

Edit: There is no answer from @Artur, so I think there is no solution. This missing feature is a showstopper for a growing number of apps. @jolla, please implement this feature.

Use Aliendalvik Control to get into Android settings and set a screen lock there.

I tried, set screen lock is set to none and does not allow changes.

I checked mine and it works for me, but that may be because I already set it in a way I don't remember. Does your bank app's error message give you any options to go directly to settings?

No, it suggests to do it myself. Maybe you installed some screen locker apps?
