Help Tunring off unlock button

[juddy]

hey guys and gals,

having an issue with my s3 where when the phone is in my pocket it keeps turning on as the unlock button keeps getting knocked.. just wondering if anyone knows of a way to turn it off or stop it from unlocking the phone.. i would rather just use the power button on the side to unlock it.

I'm assuming you mean the home button? I'm curious about this as well, but I don't have my phone yet, so I can't mess around with it yet. On my Droid X, I was able to modify a keyboard file (root required) to disable the hard keys from turning on the phone.

yea the home button, the one down the bottom. I have noticed aswell that if i double tap it sometimes it unlocks the phone.. which isnt very good either..
