Lock screen effect missing after lollipop

I just upgraded to lollipop and now im missing the lock screen effect with the particles animation following you finger when swiping.

Also noticed that the facelock option has dissapered from lock/unlock options.

Anyone got any solutions to this?

Do you have a pin lock, password lock or pattern lock?

No just the swipe to unlock. Got no particle effects at all and facelock option is gone as well

I still have it on the Z3 tablet, quite odd.

Same for me (as uli says) on the tablet,it works nicely. Maybe @Rickard could take a look after the weekend.

Face unlock is available under "smart lock" in security settings. To enable face unlock you must first set a pattern/pin/password lock.

If the "smart lock" menu is still hidden after that, you must go to "security>trusted agents", and turn on smart lock.

Thats right, Face unlock is part of the smart lock written as "Trusted Face". Once a password or pin is set, Thats when you can enable/configure the face unlock.

Have you set any custom wallpaper for the lockscreen? If you are not using one of our themes you may not see the particles.

You can set a theme from Settings -> Personalisation -> Themes.

Could you try switching to another theme and see if that helps?
