Apps opening on its own?

[anon(5373819)]

Hey guys and gals,

I'm having this issue and I'm a little concerned.

Google Calendar, and my phone app keeps opening on their own randomly. Every once and awhile my text messaging (Textra) or Dashlane will open.

It only opens however when the screen is shut off and I unlock the phone using my finger.

I don't know why its doing this and its so random.

It's a known problem when using a launcher other than touch wiz. It's not random. It will always be an app or widget on the current screen when you unlock.

unfortunately I have the opposite problem! I'll open an app and start to use it or start to type and it will close itself out. Very frustrating.

There's no fix for it? And is there a trigger for it. I can't seem to make it happen consistently.

No current fix. Trigger is using the fingerprint sensor.

Well that sucks, oh well. You'd think update 5.1.1 would have addressed it, but who knows. Maybe 5.1.1 caused it.

Anyway thanks for the info.

I'm on Verizon, so no 5.1.1... Still does it.
