Use this code in your App, it works for me:

DevicePolicyManager devicePolicyManager =   
             (DevicePolicyManager) getSystemService(Context.DEVICE_POLICY_SERVICE);
ComponentName demoDeviceAdmin = new ComponentName(this, name of activity);

devicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality(
             demoDeviceAdmin,DevicePolicyManager.PASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED);
devicePolicyManager.setPasswordMinimumLength(demoDeviceAdmin, 5);

boolean result = devicePolicyManager.resetPassword("123456",
             DevicePolicyManager.RESET_PASSWORD_REQUIRE_ENTRY);

Toast.makeText(this, "button_lock_password_device..."+result, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Android N is not working , See Here

Note: This API has been limited as of N for device admins that are not device owner and not profile owner. The password can now only be changed if there is currently no password set. Device owner and profile owner can still do this when user is unlocked and does not have a managed profile.

LockScreenActivity.java

   package com.kns;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.ActivityManager;
import android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager;
import android.content.ComponentName;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;

public class LockScreenActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
 private Button lock;
 private Button disable;
 private Button enable;
 static final int RESULT_ENABLE = 1;

     DevicePolicyManager deviceManger;
     ActivityManager activityManager;
     ComponentName compName;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        lock.setOnClickListener(this);

        disable = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnDisable);
        enable =(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnEnable);
        disable.setOnClickListener(this);
        enable.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

 @Override

  if(v == lock){
    boolean active = deviceManger.isAdminActive(compName);
             if (active) {
                 deviceManger.lockNow();
             }
  }

  if(v == enable){

            startActivityForResult(intent, RESULT_ENABLE);
  }

  if(v == disable){
     deviceManger.removeActiveAdmin(compName);
              updateButtonStates();
  }  
 }

 private void updateButtonStates() {

        boolean active = deviceManger.isAdminActive(compName);
        if (active) {
            enable.setEnabled(false);
            disable.setEnabled(true);

        } else {
            enable.setEnabled(true);
            disable.setEnabled(false);
        }    
 }

  protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
         switch (requestCode) {
             case RESULT_ENABLE:
                 if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                     Log.i("DeviceAdminSample", "Admin enabled!");
                 } else {
                     Log.i("DeviceAdminSample", "Admin enable FAILED!");
                 }
                 return;
         }
         super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
     }
}

MyAdmin.java

    package com.kns;
import android.app.admin.DeviceAdminReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MyAdmin extends DeviceAdminReceiver{


    static SharedPreferences getSamplePreferences(Context context) {
        return context.getSharedPreferences(
          DeviceAdminReceiver.class.getName(), 0);
    }

    static String PREF_PASSWORD_QUALITY = "password_quality";
    static String PREF_PASSWORD_LENGTH = "password_length";
    static String PREF_MAX_FAILED_PW = "max_failed_pw";

    void showToast(Context context, CharSequence msg) {
        Toast.makeText(context, msg, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    @Override
    public void onEnabled(Context context, Intent intent) {
        showToast(context, "Sample Device Admin: enabled");
    }

    @Override
    public CharSequence onDisableRequested(Context context, Intent intent) {
        return "This is an optional message to warn the user about disabling.";
    }

    @Override
    public void onDisabled(Context context, Intent intent) {
        showToast(context, "Sample Device Admin: disabled");
    }

    @Override
    public void onPasswordChanged(Context context, Intent intent) {
        showToast(context, "Sample Device Admin: pw changed");
    }

    @Override
    public void onPasswordFailed(Context context, Intent intent) {
        showToast(context, "Sample Device Admin: pw failed");
    }

    @Override
    public void onPasswordSucceeded(Context context, Intent intent) {
        showToast(context, "Sample Device Admin: pw succeeded");
    } 

}

main.xml

    <textview android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="To Lock Screen First Enable it.." android:textsize="15sp"></textview>

    <button android:id="@+id/lock" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Lock The Phone"></button>

    <button android:id="@+id/btnEnable" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Enable"></button>

    <button android:id="@+id/btnDisable" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Disable"></button></linearlayout>

policies.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<device-admin xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <uses-policies>
        <limit-password>
        <watch-login>
        <reset-password>
        <force-lock>
        <wipe-data>
    </wipe-data></force-lock></reset-password></watch-login></limit-password></uses-policies>
</device-admin>

You can have this policies.xml either in layout or in xml folder. Only thing you need to take care is metadata tag in Androidmanifest file.

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.kns" android:versioncode="1" android:versionname="1.0">
        <uses-sdk android:minsdkversion="8">

        <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name">
            <activity android:name=".LockScreenActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN">
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER">
                </category></action></intent-filter>
            </activity>
 <receiver android:name=".MyAdmin" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN">
     <meta-data android:name="android.app.device_admin" android:resource="@layout/policies">
                    <intent-filter>
         <action android:name="android.app.action.DEVICE_ADMIN_ENABLED">
                        </action></intent-filter>
                    </meta-data></receiver>
 </application>
        </uses-sdk></manifest>
