I woke today to my iPhone saying it was locked out for 5 minutes. I did not type a passcode, it was docked on my MagSafe stand. After the 5 minutes, without me typing anything in, it automatically relocked for 8 hours. I have not attempted to type anything or to unlock it. I dont understand this glitch. I'm worried it will do the same thing after 8 hours and I'll have to erase it and reset it. Is this a known problem to apple? How do I prevent it. The only thing I can think of is I had the screen replaced a year and a half ago with a non apple oem screen bc it was much cheaper. Is that causing the issue?

My Iphone was sitting on a table, not in my pocket and I was locked out, major pain in the neck. I want to be sure this isn't a security issue and someone isn't remotely trying to access my phone.
