Stop End button from unlocking the phone
 

I recently bought a new belt case for the omnia (a verizon droid case, perfect fit) but have ran into an annoying problem that I just can't find a solution for.

In the last 2 weeks, my phone has called people about 6 times on its own. The end key is getting pressed down in the case sometimes when I sit, bend over, etc and unlocking the phone, then the dial gets pressed and away it goes.

How can I turn this off? Holding down 'End' should not unlock the phone. Pressing 'unlock' and then 'unlock' again on the screen is the only way I want to unlock it.

Thanks!

What about downloading something like S2U2 (slide to unlock)?

That's what I use, but if you want to just use the stock lock, hold down the end key until the device locks.

That's the problem though. If you hold down the end key again, it unlocks. I don't want that, its unlocking by itself from pressing the case on accident.

I just installed s2u2. Any way to run this by pressing the end key down when locking the device? Or do I have to navigate to the program every time? Sorry I'm a noob with the phone. :) When the program is on, it does indeed turn off the end key unlock which is what I want.

Mine does not unlock when end is pressed again. Make sure you are holding the button down UNTIL it locks.

RE: S2U2, go into Settings and tell it when you want it to lock your device. Mine locks when the screen goes blank or when I quickly press the power button.

Ah, ok. Quickly pressing the power button locks it with s2u2. Its also set now with s2u2 turning on after a few seconds when being locked. Cool program, thanks!

As to the unlock on hold. Holding down the End button locked the phone. The brightness dims and I have to press the 'Unlock' graphic to unlock it, then press again on Unlock where it says 'To unlock the device, tap "Unlock"'. If I hold down End however (while its locked) the phone unlocks itself.

Anyway problem solved, thanks again all.
