This is a known mm issue and no fix as of yet, I am afraid, unless you have root. At least, I understand some apps, such as Nova launcher provide root fixes, I can't confirm since don't have root.

Camera app opens when unlocking my S6

Hi Guys!
My camera app opens when i unlock my phone. This happens randomly, anybody with the same problem? If yes, any solution? It's very annoying.
Maybe you're accidently hitting the home button twice everytime you unlock it.

No, i'm not accidently hitting the home button because i have turn the feauture off in the settings. This morning it happend two times already! Nobody having this problem?
Did it do this with the feature turned on? What happens when you unlock the screen using the power button or the wave gesture?

Yes, i have done it with the feature turnd on also and tried with power button and gestures but still have the problem. I have noticed something weird, when i lock the phone after like one second it turns on and then when i unlock it it goes to the camera app. Something triggers the camera app and i know it's not me. I have flashed the stock rom and rooted the phone and still have this problem! This is very frustrating! I dont know what else to do

Do you have any apps that might have triggered this behaviour. It's almost always a dogy app triggering it. Just a thought.

No, nothing that can be related to the camera. I dont have a lot of apps installed on my phone so it can't be that. It's indeed a very strange behaviour.
I have a similar problem. When I unlock the phone sometimes the camera will open. Sometimes dialer , messages, gallery, browser all kind of apps will open by it self. Normally happens with the finger print security turned on. Will try using notmal lock screen to see if it still happens
Just checking. You know if you swipe upd into the middle from the right bottom corner from the lock screen. It automatically unlocks to camera.
Does it happen when you swipe horizontally?

[Completed] Protected apps pattern lock not working in yu yureka.

Lately i have not been able to open protected apps with the pattern lock i set. The lock just appears twice and even after drawing the correct unlock pattern, it wont open. It just goes back to the home screen. I even tried resetting my home to factory settings. Aftet that the lock worked for a couple of times and then again the same problem. Can anybody throw some light on this? That will be very helpful.
P.S. i cant find any particular app that might have caused this and i dont have any external app lock on my yureka.

Xperia Z3 Smart Lock trusted Face, Not Working Since OTA to 5.1.1

Smart Lock trusted Face, not working since OTA to 5.1.1
Hi @ all,
does someone have the same Problem than mine? Since the OTA to 5.1.1 trusted face is not working. It is still activated but when I wake up my phone I always have to put in my pin. The face button at the Screen bottom is not appearing. Only the lock button appears.
How can I Change this again?
Greetings

** BUMP **
I have the same question. I'm new to Xperia Z3, so mine came with 5.1.1 installed, but i also can't figure out how to actually unlock with my face. I believe I have it set up correctly, but there is no such option to unlock with face once the phone is locked.

An idea/concept for the fingerprint scanner (Mod)

Dear all
After using the S7 Edge for several weeks from the transfer of my OnePlus 2. I noticed that we can't directly bypass our lockscreen without having the screen to first be lit up, which is an extra step unlocking the device. Phones like the OnePlus 2 unlocks immediately once a fingerprint is detected.
Could this function possibly be ventured or is there already some sort of modules out there that performs the same task?
Thanks!
Cheers and regards,
Nick

Long press home and the device wakes and unlocks..........
Just a idea without having to mod the device.
Stock ROM Latest Update, If i Long Press home with a finger registered, My device wakes and unlocks straight away

From "screen off" screen, press and hold Home button. Assuming you use finger to unlock your phone. And phone unlocks.

Legit takes less than 2 seconds too unlock when simply clicking and holding the button :laugh:
If you click and hold, you end up at the home screen. You can also click, then let the button up while keeping your finger on the sensor. The phone will unlock and remain on the previous screen instead of always going to the home screen.
True, but you still see the "stupid" s7 lockscreen...

There is a way of doing this, but it's a side effect of a bug in an Xposed module. Install Fingerprint Enabler 1.0.3 and enable it in Xposed installer. You can then unlock the phone without pressing the home button. The downside is that this happens because the fingerprint service is always running, waiting for a fingerprint to read. This means the phone never goes into deep sleep, even with the screen off so it's not worth the downside for me. Also, when using the phone, you will get a vibration when you accidentally touch the reader with a finger that has not been set up.
Where did you people come with the idea that you have to keep pressing the button? Ever since I got the phone back on apc8, I always opened the phone by pressing the home button once, and still keep my finger on the button so the fingerprint gets registered, I never had to keep holding it pressed.

It did exactly as I explained on 1.0.3 on Superman 1.9. The battery drawback didn't make it an option anyway.
