8/10 times I get a call, if my phone is locked, I can't answer it. It will show the little phone in the top left corner indicating that I'm getting a call, by my screen just stays black. Sometimes I'm able to unlock the phone with my finger print, but the screen remains black when I do that too.
The only time I'm able to answer is occasionally after fidgeting with my screen and lock button over and over the contact picture/number of the caller will appear on screen as it's supposed to and I'm able to answer. But as I mentioned before, 8/10 calls I'm unable to answer.
It's really inconvenient because I've missed multiple important calls and haven't been able to call back because I don't have the extension for the person who tried to reach me.
I have a Motorhome Z Play Droid and this issue started after the most recent Android update.
