Guys, has anyone found out how to unlock this phone without actually pressing the power button in order to put the fingerprint, is it a phone limitation or just mine, when screen is off I tried to unlock it with my fingerprint and until I press the power button or the AOD shows I can unlock it

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
Hello,
When I press the power button, my Atrix's screen needs from 2 to 5 seconds to wake up before I can unlock it. It seems that it wakes up faster when I disable the fingerprint unlock.
Do you know how I can improve this ?
I am looking for a way to prevent my phone from being turned off while in my pocket. I have the 2.2.1 update and have not experienced the automatic powering off, and am pretty sure it is me somehow pressing the power button then pressing off on the power options screen.
-Perhaps there is a way to change the power options screen so it requires a phone unlock before it appears?
-Port the HTC Hero lockscreen which prevents the power options screen appearing unless it has been unlocked?
-Change the power button behavior somehow?
I am quite new to this phone, and have yet to root the phone, but I will root the phone if I have to.
Please let me know if this is possible in any way!

Best advice I can give off the top of my head is to use quickboot which requires root. It requires you to go through a few menus before you power it off. Or you might try getting some sort of proximity sensor app, so that the screen won't come on while in your pocket.
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've one doubt regarding NFC screen unlock.. I'm worried that I'm giving more pressure to my Nexus S power button . Suppose if I can have a NFC tag which will simply light up the screen when placed on it, On my screen I can have pattern lock /password lock.. so it will be secured, I just want to bypass pressing Power button all the time to check what is happening inside my mobile ( with out rooting and key remap )
