Has anybody noticed that smart lock doesn't work like before in lollipop? I have smart lock set for Bluetooth devices and location. Even when I have the Bluetooth device connected, my phone requires a fingerprint or password to unlock. It doesn't do this all the time but it does most of the time.
Anyone else notice this problem?

I've had a similar experience. It seems like it works sporadically.

I am looking for am application that will notify me when a BT Device goes out of range.
Example:
Phone Note 3 paired with Fitbit One (or any BT deice)
When Fitbit One (or configurable devices) goes out of range a configurable alert occurs (Beep, Vibrate or and listed in the Notification area)
Sounds simple to me helps users not leave their BT devices behind. I'm sure its out there just can't find it.
Use bluetooth notify from playstore.

Looked good even though it hasn't been update since 2012. However it doesn't seem to work on 4.4.2 as I get no notifications on my BT devices. Any other ones you know of?
@earthgod do you mean when its disconnected from bt device?

You can use Tasker to write your own. Fairly simple.

Basically on my note 3 whenever my phone goes into idle my BBM messages seem to get severely delayed until I unlock my phone and open up BBM again.. Does anyone have any idea why and what this could be?

Let me guess, it's only when your wifi is on, right? If it's only with activated wifi you can try my solution. Change wifi standby to always and use Llama to turn off mobile data when wifi is connected. This is the only way for me to keep my threema connected when screen is off.

I believe it is only when wifi is connected.. Do you know why this is the case and what is llama?

please chime in if you use.
do you use trusted devices for unlocking?
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Yes. I use trusted unlocking with my watch (Moto 360), Bluetooth headphones, and car. If it recognize one of those devices then I don't have to deal with the hassle of unlocking my phone every time. Since it sticks with Bluetooth, the phone is likely within 30 feet or so.

Only my car stereo so I can do a few minor things from my watch instead of dealing with it in the car. The rest I just use the fingerprint reader.
I use trusted devices. It's good if you leave your phone somewhere. It'll automatically lock it.

So the functionality does not work with the fingerprint reader? as in if you are using fingerprint as your lock option, the phone would still lock with a trusted device connected?

I ask because it has never worked with my note 5. I gave up and changed to fingerprint because typing password was getting annoying.
Same watch worked perfectly fine with my Moto X 14 (duh!).
I also use a moto hint as a 5rusted device and my phone locks nevertheless.

Yes I am using the first gen. Fingerprint scanner works well on this end. You may have a bad sensor on your phone.

my fingerprint sensor works perfectly so im guessing it's software related.

I cannot seem to get the search to work and cannot find any threads searching manually.
My watch has started logging into local WiFi every time I wake it up even when it has a Bluetooth connection to my phone.
I was expecting it to only use WiFi when no Bluetooth was available. It seems to have started doing this recently and I seem to remember an update not too long ago.
Anyone else with this issue.
Yes it should as you have described. With my S7 it behaves like this. May be it's your phone losing or power saving Bluetooth signal. Which phone are you using?

I'm on an S6 edge

It should work fine then . The only solution i can think of is to factory reset the watch and try again.

Factory reset rather than a restart

Mine doesn't work anywhere. Before and after update. Cycling the settings on and off. Nothing works... a couple of us started a thread earlier but go no input from anyone.
Mine seems to work fine if i just swipe words tho.
