Disabled screen lock - don't want to clear credentials I am using Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9005. In order to use the university WiFi network I need to install an authority certificate (WiFi credential). To do so, the device made me installing a look screen (Pin or Password), any other lock screen choice is not available and grayed with a message "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage" 

I need to change/cancel the annoying pin lock screen, without needing to clear all credentials in order to keep using the university WiFi. 

what can I do about this?
The certificate is stored in Credential Storage, which requires a pin/password to be set for use in encrypting/decrypting the certificate. The nature of the problem is documented here on code.google.com and you can star the issue, so hopefully Google will address it in future.
