Most of us carry our mobile phones in pocket and sometimes it tends to dial out a number with an accidental press over the buttons. This can happen while walking, placing/removing objects from pocket and even while sitting. Almost all phones come with a keypad-lock, but the problem is that most of the users keep it disabled because it requires manual unlocking every time. There are Smartphones like HTC Hero having a security feature, which requires a slide-down of finger over the screen to unlock. Well this sort of solution is easier than traditional phone locking and unlocking.

Therefore, the question arises how to activate this, the process is quite simple and does not require any lengthy procedures. Go to the Settings menu choose the Security option. Now, select the required pattern from the list. Finish!

• Form now you will require sliding down the screen and tapping a pattern in order to unlock the phone. This is a simple solution for an insignificant but common problem.

• If you are someone who frequently uses the phone then it is my recommendation to go for standard security option of a simple pattern rather than complex one. This way you will save a lot of precious time and prevent irritation.

• The selected pattern must have four dots, be it square or a diagonal or to any different shape. Now, it requires only two simple steps to unlock the phone i.e. to slide-down the screen and then selecting the pattern to get access to the resources of the device.

• If you find it complex then the simplest way to prevent Android device from Dialing in the Pocket is to turn on the keypad-lock. This is the straightforward and simplest way to control accidental dialing. This is not only effective against accidental dialing but also against accidental-music playback or any other sort of activity.

Not technical approaches but try avoiding tight-jeans. You will not believe but there exists few cases where the devise was crushed under extreme pressure. Anyhow, we are no one to comment about your clothing preference.
