Hi all
I'm very satisfied with my S6 Edge (925F) but I'm facing a weird problem: when I unlock the phone using my fingerprint(s), it works perfectly but sometimes it's not the home screen which is displayed, but another random app, (i.e Facebook, Settings, News Republic or other...)
I have to press the back button to return to the home screen...
Anyone having the same problem? (not a big deal but...)
Started to happen to me as well a couple of days back. It's strange because it never happened before and I didn't change anything on the phone.
Never happened to me so far. Are you sure you weren't already in that app when you locked your device? The fingerprint unlocks into the last open app. Go back to home before locking.
Another possibility is that you are tapping a notification before unlocking. Say you have a notification from FB and you tap on it. The screen will stay locked, but it will open the FB app. Unlocking with fingerprints will then show FB open. Same can happen for email, texts, etc. You can also pull down the status bar and tap settings, then when you unlock, settings will be open.

Thanks but not at all.
It happens randomly, either I'm in an app or not (and if so, it's not necesseraly the one I was on!)
Quite mysterious...
I was using Nova Launcher (maybe the cause), will give 2-3 days Touchwiz a chance, and will report back...
Hey guys,
same problem for me. It is not dependant of the unlock method (i'm experiencing it with finger print or regular unlock).
I think it is a Nova launcher bug, only occur with nova for me.

I think so...unfortunately...
I think it's the latest nova launcher beta version that causes the issue.
I'm using Nova since I got the phone, a month ago, haven't experienced this.
I have been having this problem too and was about to start a new thread. I am using Nova too, though I did try installing the google now launcher and seemed to have the same problem. I suppose Nova simply being installed may cause the problem.
I will try uninstalling Nova and use TouchWiz for a bit. Not sure how long I will last, I think I prefer the random apps to Touchwiz.
How did the rest of you get on after switching away from Nova?
I have been experiencing this issue as well but ive been using the nokia Z-launcher. I have a feeling it might also be my fingers inadvertently touching the curved portion of the screen when i hold it.
I have the same thing happen to me. I thought I was going insane. The worst part is, I'm on a note 3 and I'm using touchwiz lollipop. I'm 100% sure no applications are running before I lock the phone, and when I use the pattern unlock, whatever application shortcut that was on the screen when I lock the phone, a random app from that screen will run when I unlock the phone. It doesnt happen all the time, but it happens at least a couple times a day.
Reason
Hey guys. I am using Nova Launcher too. And I have the same problem. I don't have the sollution, but I found the reason. ? When you lock your S6, the touchscreen stays for a second active. And if you hit an app in that second it will open when you unlock your S6.
Sorry for my bad English, I hope someone can do something with this information.
Cya ??

It seems that if the Nova's desktop margin is set to "Medium" or "Big", this problem is reduced, but I don't know if it's fully solved. Will see...
Have you found any other solution?

I think that has nothing to do with it. It could be true that it reduces it, but the only reason it would do that is because:
Mostly when you lock your S6 your fingers touch the side of the screen.
When you set margin to "Medium" or "Big" and you lock your phone, your fingers wil most likely touch no app on the side of your desktop, because the margin "pushes" them to the middle of the screen.
I haven't found a solution. Still waiting for an update to fix it.

Yes, that makes sense. Anyway, if looks perfectly good with marging set to medium, and I've had no issues with this problem since I changed the setting (yesterday). So if it reduces the problem so much, I can live with it...

Great news, the update I got today (4.2.2) fixed the bug. It was from Nova. I think this ends the thread. Happy new year guys. Cya!
Yep, it is finally fixed! Cheers!
Still happening in the latest Nova... running in Oppo phone.

I'm going to be blunt here and say straight up that I don't remember how my phone used to answer phone calls......I know that sounds stupid but I literally do not know if I slid to answer, or pushed a button, or what....but here's my problem:
As of right now, if someone calls my phone while the screen is off, it will pop up with answer and ignore buttons. This has enabled me to "pocket answer" twice today, because when I try to get my phone out of my pocket, one of my fingers hits "answer" .......... surely it wasn't like this before? I have never had this issue.
How does a stock atrix handle calls when the screen is off? How do I get it back to the way it was? I feel like a full-retard for not knowing what it used to look like, but I cannot remember!
Call screen pops up with sliders. Remains locked afterwards. So you can answer calls without unlocking your phone. If you are managing to stroke the sliders in your pocket, who knows whats going on in there!
My phone has had sliders for answering/ignoring calls since I bought it on 4.1.26.
Do you have your phone set to auto answer? Settings, call settings, auto answer.
If the screen is on and a call comes in you should see "answer" and "ignore" buttons. If the screen is off and a call comes in you should see slide to unlock buttons for "answer" and "ignore". I don't think there's any setting to toggle to enable/disable the s2u for answer/ignore.
When you wake your phone do you see a slide to unlock screen or does it just go straight to the phone home screen? I had this happen to me and a factory reset fixed that up.

LOL! Well that's the thing, right now it doesn't have sliders, it acts like the phone was in use when the call comes through, I get the same UI, the answer and ignore buttons at the bottom...no sliders.....
how do I get my sliders back? I am using widgetlocker for my lockscreen.

disable widgetlocker and see if you still get the problem behavior. Here's an old thread describing your exact problem with widgetlocker being the culprit. It's over a year old so I would have thought it would be fixed by now. dunno.

It was indeed widgetlocker's fault. That makes me sad why would it change all of a sudden?
Yeah i had that problem with widget locker as well when i set the setting to disable all default lock screen. I was hoping they'd have this fixed by now...

I'm assuming widgetlocker was fine and dandy before the 2.3.4 OTA update right? Anytime there's a major release level update, e.g. 2.2.2->2.3.X, lots of things can go bonkers for 3rd party apps. Some things can break even with a minor release update, 2.2.1->2.2.2, but it's not as likely. It's just how it is in the world of software. fun huh?

Hi guys,
I finally installed Windows 7 bootcamp on my Mac, and went away on flashing kernel to XWKDD_insecure.tar, and rooting the S2 with S2 Root app. Everything went smoothly, and I now have TB Pro with a couple of apps frozen.
However, one very noticeable change after I flash and rooted was that my Applications button is very hard to activate. I thought I had imagined it, but when I unlock via Widgetlocker slider, and tap the Applications icon on the bottom right, nothing happens with the normal pressure I am used it. To activate it, I must push down with a little force for a second or two, let go, and it will go to the application folder. Also, I have also notice that when I wake the phone, the unlock widgetlocker slider is slightly unresponsive at first, I must also apply more force, hold it for a second, and slide for the slider to work. Before I rooted (6 hours ago), I can lightly tap the application icon, or light slide the unlock slider, and it would work.
Another weird thing is also buttons on the screen works fine thus far.
Anyone have this rather weird problem? I am slightly regretting rooting the phone, because the applications icon just wouldn't budge despite multiple taps... I've tried battery pulls, etc, but the problem persists, especially right after I unlock the phone.
Any input is much appreciated!
Thank you
Did you found a solution? I have the same problem, but I don't know if it's because rooting? This is really annoying.
Same here after CF-root.
and let me add that the return touch key (below the applications icon) isn't so responsive as before rooting!
I thought I was just imagining but I am "glad" you guys having the same problem.
Looking forward for a solution.
Maybe asking Chainfire ?
Well I just installed a stock rom, same thing.
My 'back' button is very un-responsive as well. it's like I really have to hit the spot for it to react.
Am having the same issue with the back key and i am still stock non rooted

This is certainly not the first time I've heard about such complaints, infact a few friends also had this issue as well they had their phones replaced.
Hi all,
About two weeks ago I updated my XS to the official ICS update and am half happy/half annoyed with the result.
Firstly, I'm having trouble with the Home Screen Auto-Rotate. I can't see any settings/toggles for it, and it only seems to activate when plugged into a charger, and turning on/off screen rotation doesn't seem to affect it.
This is a problem for me, because I tend to be lying in bed when charging the phone, and having the home screen auto-rotate while all other applications are fixed in portrait is really annoying!
Have any of you found some setting for this? Or have a solution?
Secondly, there's the issue with the Lock Screen. With the ICS update, the ONLY way to view notifications in the lockscreen is by using "Slide" as a lock screen option, unlike Gingerbread. This is a problem because most people tend to want the "slide to unlock" and then some sort of security function (pattern, PIN, password, face recognition).
From what what I've gathered from reading some posts, ICS removed that functionality or something rather.
Do any of you have any solutions that keep the "Xperia" theme/look?
Thanks,
Aruim
Your first problem is non issues and standard features of any phone for Android(exactly the same as GB), you need to take a quick trip to the dev section to find a solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769082
Your second problem, if I understand you is also a non issue, you can pull down the status notifications menu in the lock screen(new to ICS), you can slide to open any notification(exactly the same as GB) and you can slide to unlock(exactly the same as GB)... you will find everything (exactly the same as GB) in the security\screen lock section of the settings.

The second prob the OP has is possibly the one I've seen most people comment on.
Some of us want notifications on our locks screens, but also want security, such as a PIN. You could do this on GB, now you can't. You have to have one or the other now with ICS. It's not *exactly* the same as GB.
Not a deal breaker, admittedly, but something *I* think Sony should have left, or at least included it as a choice.
hi
For this problem,
I went to disable the Live Ware.
Or, if you use this program, you can only uninstall the new update.
(the behavior you do not want to depend on this)
this worked for me

I stand corrected; i misunderstood.
I prefer it the ICS way tho, I'd prefer not having to slide to unlock then to again go thru security, to then have access to the phone. One poor mans solution is to pick your security method then set sim lock, at least yull have two part security option when u first turn on your device.

So I was searching for the greater part of the last month, how to fix the home button lag issues.
And while disabling the double tap and long press questionably helps the situation, it doesn't actually fix the root cause: Oneplus' shoddy coding.
The issue is the Oneplus launcher. Simple fix is to download Google's Google now launcher from the app store. You could also use another ROM, but then you lose the fingerprint reader/laser focusing.
Bonus for you, if you have Xposed installed is that with Xposed GEL you can modify many of the launchers settings to your liking ... As long as Google doesn't break the GEL developers' app.
Hope this helps some of you. I'm now very happy with how this Oneplus two runs. And although we shouldn't have to do this out of the box, it's not too hard if you put in the effort and patience (plus you'll learn a thing or two about your phone).
Here's my configuration: Oxygen OS 2.1.1, Boeffla beta5 hotplug 2-4 & 0-4, Google now launcher, Xposed with Gravitybox.
I have been on Nova launcher from day one, and not a single hint of lag on the home button.
I loved to get rid of the this bug, but I really like oxygens shelf. In fact, it's the only thing that isn't crappy about their rom. Any chance to get this oder something similar with another launcher?
I have tried nova and action launcher sometimes my home button just stops working for sometime even the fingerprint scanner stops working.. I had to reflash 2.1 zip! And finally it my home button was back and then yesterday suddenly my home button again stopped working and I was pretty much frustrated abt this issue so I just removed the screen protector and it worked and even my fingerprint scanner suddenly became more awesome as it was just 80-85 % before.. now it's 99%.. I don't wanna return my phone as I heard it is some problem with the one plus fingerprint drivers.. And even few of 'em who got their phones on October had the same problem returned for replacement but they got the model manufactured from August.. So i think it's really not hardware it's a software issue!

Google launcher is very similar to oxygen. You may not even be able to tell the difference ... And shelf is just recent apps (which GNL has in the app drawer) and recent callers list ... Which is in the recent callers list ...
you can fix lag in every buttom only if you disable function for double touch and large touch
Google Launcher jsut updated this morning. Give it a try. Also disable the double-tap function on home button.
Also using the screen bar buttons solve the problem. Releasing a phone with this kind of problems is a scam.

what?
fwiw, i don't seem to have any "lag" when the long press and double press is disabled.
But of course there is a lag when they are enabled. the phone HAS to have some way of realizing that you're not going to press it a 2nd time, or that you're not going to hold it down. how else is it supposed to do that? go to the home screen IMMEDIATELY and therefore not giving you enough time to press the button a 2nd time ?
lol use your brains people
oh and before anyone says.... i've used many roms on many phones which utilise the "double tap" and "hold home button" for different functions. every one of them has had a slight lag before it goes to the home screen. i dare say that you're remembering thing with rose tinted glasses if you're adamant that this phone is worse than those at this.

With double tap disabled it also has lag with Oxygen default launcher. If you design something with lag by default, it is a really bad design. Try any nexus device (even nexus 4 is faster) or the OPT with cyanogenmod and you will see what speed is.
what? i don't think you understand what i wrote.
Nova launcher is the solution, still my best purchase from play store...
Hi Guys,
I have the same problem. I bought my OP2 during open sale, and i received a phone from the 06/08/15 batch. I have also a home button which is not very "responsive", but i think it's a hardware problem due with th metal frame. When I use a case, i don't have this pb and the home button is very responsive ( as it should be).
DO you guys experience the same?
I'm using Catapult Launcher. It's a fork of Trebuchet Launcher from Cyanogenmod. Works pretty good ... no laggs.

Hi guys!
I really love this phone, but I have a really, really, really annoying bug. I have only 2 days with this phone (MM updated since the first day). When I try to unlock with my finger it works most of the time, but in some occasions it ask me for the knock code or the pin directly, giving me no chance to use my fingerprint to unlock the phone. This is really annoying because I want to use the fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone and it does not let me. Does anyone have the same problem with the V10? Any ideas for a possible solution? Thanks a lot!

We have this problem too and assume you are using a third party launcher (Nova, Google, etc). Switch back to LG stock launcher and it fixes the problem. Think it has something to do with the lockscreen permission changes from Lollipop to Marshmallow.

I'm actually using Nova. I will switch back to LG Stock Launcher (uggly, by the way), and I'll tell you if it worked or not for me. I'm thinking on the same about te permissions in MM. There is no way to upgrade permissions from the settings or something like that to keep using a third party launcher?

I ran with LG's launcher for the past couple of weeks and since the recent beta updates to Nova shows no sign of a solution, I've reverted back to Nova and just switched to pattern unlock for the time being.
You know, even using nova, you can double tap the notification bar to turn off, and still use the fingerprint to unlock.

^ Incase anyone of you missed it, the finger print scanner works if you double tap the notification on Nova Launcher to lock the screen.
hi guys... i too have issue with finger print... my problem on MM is that i cannot even set up a finger print.. its like hard ware issue.. but i do hope its a software issue...
i did took out the case..even the back cover.. but still nothing. wont detect finger when i set up

Try to factory reset, or change the unlock method to a different one, and then go back to fingerprint.
already did.factory reset by lg bridge..hmmmm
. i do hope its only a s/w issue. huhuhu
may due to mainboard problem

Speak for yourself. :laugh:
I'm on MM on my H960A AND I'm using Nova Launcher since the first day. Never had this issue. I only had a problem once after unlocking the bootloader. You have to enable "OEM unlock" in the developer settings prior to unlocking the bootloader and I did not disable that option again afterwards. The fingerprint sensor did not work at all with this setting enabled. You can register new fingerprints but unlock does not work.
Since I disabled this option I have no issues with Nova and fingerprint. Should you have unlocked your bootloader as well make sure you disable "OEM unlock" again.
I'm on MM and using Nova prime but I don't have any problems with the Fingerscanner!

Hi!
I have this phone for 4 days and i had the same problem like you,
I use to lock my screen with third party applications like:
Greenify or Screen Off and Lock
And for this i have the same problem like you,
If you had the third party application for locking your phone, you can uninstall them or lock your screen by double top or power button.
Good Lock!

Try this...
I've had this problem also. It seems to have started after a security update from T-Mobile.
Try this fix and let me know how it works for you:
Follow these steps:
1)Goto settings -> fingerprint & security -> fingerprints -> then delete all fingerprints
2)Then goto apps -> switch to show system apps(im using 6.0) -> find com.lge.fingerprints then remove data and cache memory.
3)Goto storage & usb -> clear cached data
4) Then restart your V10
5) After that, add fingerprints in fingerprint lock then it detects your finger.
If it doesn’t detect your finger, repeat the steps.

Try this fix and let me know how it works for you:
Follow these steps:
1)Goto settings -> fingerprint & security -> fingerprints -> then delete all fingerprints
2)Then goto apps -> switch to show system apps(im using 6.0) -> find com.lge.fingerprints then remove data and cache memory.
3)Goto storage & usb -> clear cached data
4) Then restart your V10
5) After that, add fingerprints in fingerprint lock then it detects your finger.
If it doesn’t detect your finger, repeat the steps.

Glad I could help.
You may have to repeat this process as sometimes, I've heard, the problem reoccurs.
