I’m running Graphene on a Pixel 6. I lost it and someone opened it somehow and called two of my contacts to give it back.

I’m a bit confused how this even happened. When I got the phone back, they were going through my contacts. I checked app usage stats and they went through a banking app (not missing money), maps, signal, etc.

Is there a way to figure out how they even unlocked my phone?

      It does. That’s still enough time for you to walk away and someone else to pick it up.

      There are also situations that override that, like media apps.

          Not sure about locking on disconnect, but there’s the opposite: Smart Lock can keep the device unlocked if a specified Bluetooth device is connected, it’s within a geo-fence or ‘on-body detection’ thinks it’s in your pocket.

          It’s been ages since was discontinued, but I used to use Avasts mobile security app for all sorts of remote control. Get location, Lock/unlock, take a photo and send it to Avasts interfaces, force the phone to call a particular number, start blaring a ‘this device has been lost/stolen’ alarm, and more.
