First off I want to point out that this bug seems to be related only to T-Mobile S6's. I haven't seen this behavior on any other S6 other than multiple T-Mobile S6's.
So I have my lock screen set to lock automatically within 2 minutes, and to not lock instantly with the power key, with fingerprint security. Normally, within those two minutes, on any other S6 if you receive a text, the phone will turn on and give you a new message notification on a lock screen set to "swipe" to unlock; no fingerprint needed.
However, on the T-Mobile S6, if you receive a text within that 2 minute window, the phone will unlock itself to whatever screen you had locked it on. The phone will completely bypass the lock screen from standby, and display a new message notification on whatever screen it was last on. This is incredibly frustrating as sometimes I respond to a text, put my phone in my pocket and sometimes ignore new messages. And if those messages get to me within 2 minutes, I often end up pocket dialing them if I chose to ignore my phone. While I know that seems like an odd and specific scenario, its pretty common for me at work, and is the reason why every other Samsung S6 defaults to a "swipe" type lock screen to prevent that from happening.
I work a a major electronics department store, in the mobile department. Although we do not offer T-Mobile phones, I personally have a T-Mobile S6. I have never seen an AT&T or VZW S6 do this.
Any other T-Mobile S6 users noticed this?
