Hi again,

Magnet free at the times i've had this occur.

As for screen lock i've used and yes it prevents the switch off. However i just prefered the one stage, pull out've pocket option, tap screen and then enter device lock code.

When 'screen lock' and 'device lockl is used it's two stage pull out've pocket, press on/off button, swipe to unlock THEN enter the device lock code. If the swipe to unlock appeared without having to hit the on/off button it would be better.

Yes using screen lock also prevents switch off but why do we have to set up two stages of unlocking just to avoid this unwanted switch off.

As for the 'Switch off' option only appearing after unlocking thats not the case here. On the device being locked, with keyboad cosed, I get the option to enter the device lock code when the screen is touched. If however you touch the upper area of the screen before entering the code the 'Switch off' yes or no option appears.

If this happens whilst in the pocket....and the yes option bobs up and pocket movment can turn the device off.

Quite simply i use the coded device lock mode for obvious reasons and for me the switch off option during the device lock mode is illogical. Leave that to the main on off swich or at least dont allow it to appear in the dev lock code entry screen.


Of course not a major issue that devalues the device but one've those pain in the arse things when it happens.
