I got myself a belt pouch for my N900 and have an annoying problem.
Before i put the N900 in it I lock it with the slider.
I usually listen to Music then and after some time I hear sounds of the Menu or other Apps being opened.
When I take the phone out of the bag it is unlocked and I'm inside contacts or so.
There is no way the slider can be triggered inside the bag. Neither the hardware nor the onscreen slider.
How the bleep can this happen. and more important. how do I stop it from happening?

Thanks!

If there's a magnet in the belt pouch, that can cause this problem.

I found out that it happens much less often when the touchscreen faces the magnet. For the moment I can live with it like this...

thats propably because the magnets are farther away from each other.
