Recently, I found that I usually can't close the trunk on the first try, but it closes easily on the second try. Any ideas on what the issue is or how to fix it?

It might be related to the positioning of the electronic lock within the latch. I'm not sure. I think someone mentioned there is a way to adjust it but when mine failed, I replaced it for $20 with a new aftermarket latch on Amazon made for a 2011 Toyota Camry.

maybe it is related to FOB I mean the car thinks FOB is inside of the trunk and opens it

Yes, it likely in this way. Every 1st try to close the trunk, it blocked to close just like the fob was inside. I will try to close the trunk again and leave the fob afar to see the result.
