Issues w/ Smart Lock after latest Verizon update
I got the notification for the latest update from Verizon yesterday and usually wait as long as I can to install updates. But I wanted to try using fingerprint scanning with Exchange so I said "how bad can it be" and installed it. I knew I shouldn't have and instantly regretted it.
It appears this new update somehow broke the Smart Lock feature on my Verizon Note 4. It was working flawlessly since the Lollipop upgrade a few months back and worked with my bluetooth headset, my location, and my Moto 360 watch. After the update, nothing I do makes the Smart Lock feature work.
I've tried disabling and re-enabling Smart Lock, removing all devices and locations from Smart Lock and adding them back, unpairing and repairing the devices, etc. Nothing works - it prompts me to add new bluetooth devices to Smart Lock and shows them as Connected but I'm always prompted to enter my PIN no matter what.
Anyone else seeing this? I really do not want to try a hard reset to fix this. I just can't buy into the need to do a hard reset after every single update large or small. I tried clear the cache partition and that did nothing.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
