Locking getting disabled by contacts app

After upgrading to Lollipop(5.0.2) on my XperiaT2 Ultra Dual(D5322) when i receive calls, calls are by-passing screen lock and third-party app called "AppLock" too, how can I disable Contacts app and othe apps from by-passing security locks?

I have a screen lock but calls have always bypassed the screen lock going way back G/Bread as for the 3rd party app then if it designed to do a job and it isn't then you need to take that up with the developer

Before I upgraded 2 days ago calls never used to bypass locks.

Not tried myself but does this depend on the type of lock or was your 3rd party app the reason for calls not needing the phone to be unlocked 1st

Nope., accessing dialler need to unlock screen first for me.
Maybe there compatibility problem ?

Contact the app developer and report this issue.

@s4alon The problem wasn't opening the dialer without unlocking the screen it was answering a call without having to unlock the screen which I've never needed to do
