For some reason this regedit has started to act up. It still does its juob of not waking the phone if the kwyboard is slid out, but ONLY WHEN THE SCREEN IS UNLOCKED. If i use the default screen locker, the phone ignores the regedit and will wake/unlock via kb and case magnet. This was never an issue when the edit first applied. The only things that have changed since are the installation of weatherbug and windows marketplace. I tried uninstalling both but the quirk is still there. Needless to say I have gone back to the Mogul case because of this. Some of you might say, just leave it unlocked, but my phone has a tendency to self wake and with the screen unlocked it ends up pocket dialing people or going into various different menus from normal moving around. If someone has a solution or suggestion please don't hesitate to chime in. Thanks in advance.

I just wanted to say that I am having the exact same problem. I own the same HTC case, and was using the stock screen lock, and needless to say have been making several accidental calls lately. I can replicate the issue perfectly with the device locked (screen off), and holding the phone (keyboard side) up to the magnets of this case. It comes on and unlocks every time. Very frustrating.

Now I have to either 1) buy a new case, 2) use a new lock program or 3) just not lock the device.
