So im having problems with my Galaxy S5 running 5.0 Lollipop, its not enabling the lock screen after I Have the lock set to the Fingerprint
Lock and sometimes it will enable the lock screen and sometimes it wont but it seems like most of the time it doesnt. When it doesnt it has a lock in the bottom right corner of the screen that you have to swipe to enable the lock but without enabling it you are able to get in the phone by just swypeing the screen. Of course if someone was trying to get in my phone all they would have to do is swype the screen if the lock wasnt enabled automatically. Ill attach some screenshots of it enabled and not enabled. I was just wondering if
This was just a bug or maybe if theres a setting to make it where the screen aways locks. Sorry if im kinda rambling on about it. 😜

Welcome.

Have you tried Safe Mode, to test whether a third-party app is causing the trouble?

Ok, I just tried booting in safe mode and the lock screen worked perfectly so I pretty sure its a 3rd party app that is causing the issue.

(Note: I do have a Pebble Connected and have several apps for the Pebble and idk if the apps may be interfering with the lock screen but I have a strong feeling that thats whats causing the issue.)
