Here is the thing.. I press the power button and turn off the screen then I press the power button again , the screen turns on without slide lock.. It annoyed me during the day because every time I put it in my pocket it turned on.. I don't know how slide lock was disabled. I'm using Launcher Pro , Stock Rom last update.. Is there any setting like that , that I configured unintentionally? I'm gonna re-flash the firmware otherwise.. Thanx
reflash, the best option.

When i have my phone in my pocket i constantly press the meny-buttun by mistake witch turns on the screen and drains the battery. Is it possible to have only the top button activate the screen. I dont know what SE was thinking putting both the wake up and the unlock function on a raised button...
You could set an unlock pattern, which makes it much harder to unlock accidentally. Couple this with a widget to turn the lock pattern on/off, then you can quickly turn it on when you're going out, and turn it off again when you're back home, and don't need it enabled.

I think that the best option is with only the power button...
For me...
Do you have any idea?
Thank You!
Id love to know about how to remap the buttons too. Im having a hate relationship with the powerbutton as its used to lock the screen. Its kinda recessed so i have to hurt my finger/ use my fingernails to actually push the button.
Any other solutions on how to lock the screen without actually using the powerbutton is also appreciated
i have the same problem here
i have a X1 and I can chose between any button to wake up or chose power button, I didn't find this option on x10 mini anyone found a solution???
thank you guys
ever since the day i bought my note, i have had to unlock it using this pattern:
1. press the power button and wait for the screen to turn on
2. press the power button to turn off the screen
3. press the power button and wait for the screen to turn on, the screen will now detect my finger.
this happens both with a pattern locked screen or an unprotected lock screen
if i use the s-pen the screen unlocks the first time i turn it on, but if i want to use my finger the power button needs to be tapped 3 times or else i can drag my finger across the screen and it wont detect it
this really sucks how do i fix this?
it does this fully stock, rooted, or with CWM 5.5.0.4 installed

Haven't heard this before, I'd suggest unroot your Note, and see if its still the same (most likely will be), and get it swapped in warranty.
I am not sure if this is a bug with 5.1.1 or not. I tried searched before coming here to post, but I haven't come across a solution yet.
Anyways, my phone doesn't have power saver on, smart stay is off, and I have my security set to fingerprint unlock.
To the issue at hand - My screen doesn't automatically time out if I press the home button or the power button to turn on my screen. In order for the screen to turn off, I have to manually press the power button. Otherwise, the screen just stays on and drains my battery. This wouldn't be too much of an issue if my butt didn't always press the home button while the phone was my pocket.
I'd really hate to factory reset or flash another rom, as I just finished installing all of my apps and whatnot after a phone replacement. However if that is the only option to fix this problem, then I'm okay with doing so.
Thanks ahead of time for reading!
**quick edit** - forgot to mention that if I receive a notification, that it turns my screen on and keeps it on until I press the power button.
Hi,
Hoping someone can help.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+.
Since yesterday I've noticed that the screen will randomly turn itself on if I turn it off at the lock screen manually.
For example, the phone is at the home screen - I press the on/off button - the screen stays off.
I press the on/off button (to check the time for example) and I'm presented with the lockscreen (no security) - I then press the on/off button again to turn it off - 1 second later the screen turns on, shows me my home page wallpaper then flicks to my locks reen then turns off.
And it will continue to do this unless I go to my home screen and turn it off from there.
Not sure HOW or WHY its doing this.
Haven't installed anything recently...
One thing I have noticed is that this will only happen if the lockscreen is set to SWIPE (No security) - It doesn't do this if I set a PIN for example.
And suggestions would be appreciated
Cheers people.

Maybe u should ask here

Sent from my Mi Note 10 using XDA Labs
So my G8X was working normally until all of a shudden today I started facing this bug or whatever it is. So the problem is:
Earlier when I used to touch and hold on Home Screen, it would give me these options like Widgets, Wallpaper&Theme, Home Screen Settings. But all of a sudden today when I tapped and held on home screen my phone got locked. I pressed the power button but my phone wouldn't wake. I realised that whenever I tap and hold on home screen the phone would get lock and show a message "Fingerprint operation cancelled" on the black lock screen above the finger print animation and then to wake it up I have to press the power button two times (only in the case of touch and hold locking) . I thought that phone's "Knock On" Extension was messing with it so I turned it off but to no use. The problem still persisted. I tried clearing cache and then tried clearing cache of "Home" from Apps&Notifications settings but Nada.
At last I did a factory reset and did a fresh setup but to my surprise the problem still persisted. Why the heck is this happening and that too all of a sudden. The functioning of Tap and Hold on home screen for settings was fine all this time and then all of a sudden this started happening.
Can any anybody help? Shed some light?
So I Factory reset it for the second time and it didn't solve the problem. And I noticed that locking phone by pressing power key and pressing it again to wake it up works if I press it in like 5 seconds right after locking it. If I lock the phone and leave it like for more than 5 seconds or so then I'll have to press the power key two times to wake it up. WTH and why has it started happening out of the blues? ??

Dont worry ez solve mate
i uploaded a video mate watch it after reading it https://youtu.be/lnXSBsGdMJQ
There is a sensor in top (near the selfi camera) if it is blocked the phone will think that it is in pocket so it will disable the fingerprint sensor(if you newly installed screen protector may cause the sensor to block ) so it disable fingerprint and double press to screen on
