Has there been a solution yet?
I'm still getting this issue and it's so frustrating. Every time I have a loading screen that leads to my home lot, everyone is standing on the front lawn "changing their phone covers." This causes them to leave work/school early and their performance suffers.

I hadn't thought of that, you could be right. "Change phone cover" is constantly appearing and this may cause all Sims to be present on the home lot.
I am also having this problem. When I'm playing my active sim on a lot other than home, and then I return home, my supposed-to-be-at-work sim is suddenly home, and is treated like they left work early (lower pay, performance hit), and the supposed-to-be-at-work sim has the "change phone color" action queued at that time.
One thing I noticed is that when I'm on the other lot, and then select travel to go home, when I'm in the map screen, it shows that my supposed-to-be-at-work sim is at home. But then, if I cancel the travel and remain at the other lot, it still shows that sim at work like they're supposed to be, with usual options to work hard, leave early, etc. So you can actually see it about to happen and still cancel it while in world view. It's only once I actually return home that the other sim is suddenly there.
This didn't start happening right when I got the new patch. It started right after the first time I intentionally used the change phone color feature.
@AmillzSlushoWhat mod are you referring to? I tried googling "change phone cover mod fix" and couldn't find it.

Yes, I think this is correct. I've been experiencing this bug too but I think this is the cause, at least in my game.
