Security Lock keeps reverting back to swipe

GuriD — Thu, 15 Jan 2015 00:06:54 GMT

Hi,

I got issue from past week, suddenly phones lost my security lock reverted back to swipe. I tried putting face unlock and PIN but after few minutes the phone goes back to swipe to unlock. I don't recall installing any new apps in past few weeks nor installing any phone updates except for app updates for already installed apps

My software version:23.0.1.A.0.167

Regards

Guri

Try to boot on safe mode. And see if it works there.

It reverted back to swipe after rebooted the phone in normal mode. I think some app is doing that. Is there way figure out which is disabling security?

you will have to uninstall one by one until you figure it out.
