Phone unlocks easily inside pocket

[swimon]

Does anyone else experience this problem? What fixes are available?

The power button for Xperia z1 custom seems to be activated a lot while in my pocket and the default unlock screen (on latest FW) is just a swipe in any direction. This causes a lot of unwanted unlocks.

I'm now using pattern security to unlock, but I would prefer not to, because I miss the access to the notification center.

i`m on 4.4.2 evo5 .. i don`t have this problem at all .. i don`t think it`s a software problem.. but if u use a case or something like that the problem it`s solved )

Use this app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenofffree

I've got the pro now, it does the job plus more features. If you're concerned about the battery, just turn on the pocket sensor having rest of them disabled.
