Screen Keeps Coming On

Does it turn on while just sitting on a desk or table? Mine was having similar problems. I would turn off the phone by knock knock, then lets say i was going to lay it on a table and if my finger was touching the screen as i lay it on the table then it would turn in sometimes. I turned off the knock knock feature and the problem went away. I think it is a bug with the sensor or something.

Yes mostly when it's just laying on a hard service. I don't want to turn off knock knock because I like this feature, should be standard on all phones IMHO.
 
I like knock knock a lot to. Are you sure it is not turning on because you have incoming notifications? My phone turns on when i receive text messages.
 
I would seriously consider an exchange. These things don't usually go away. It could very well be a hardware problem. I honestly not sure if it is a setting you have turned on. I doubt it is though. It should not be doing that out of the box. I agree it must be really annoying though. Are you using a lock screen password? Try it with and without a password and see if it changes anything.
 
settings>gestures> motion sensor calibration

try that... mine was doing the same thing until I calibrated..... the phone was picking up minor vibrations while driving and turning on thinking I was tapping on it
 
Weird. If you're not touching it at all it shouldn't happen.

Sometimes i turn it on by mistake but that's while touching it.
