Remarks

This method was deprecated in API level 15. Use R.attr.showWhenLocked or Activity.setShowWhenLocked(boolean) instead. This allows you to seamlessly occlude and unocclude the keyguard as your application moves in and out of the foreground and does not require that any special permissions be requested.

Enables you to temporarily disable / reenable the keyguard (lock screen).
