Samsung manufactures a variety of phones featuring touch-screen functionality. Because touch screens are highly sensitive, they're often designed with a screen lock to prevent numbers from being inadvertently dialed or applications from opening when the phone is in your pocket or purse. Samsung phone models vary, so you may need to try several different procedures to unlock the touch screen. Many Samsung phones prompt you to create a four-digit unlock password when you initially configure the phone. If you've enabled a password, you will need it to unlock the phone.

So the device no longer responds on a single touch?

I think that in this case only a reset via the recovery mode will help.

Greetings!

Accidentally calling someone or sending a message full of gibberish when your phone is in your pocket or bag can be embarrassing. Luckily, your phone has a feature that prevents pocket dials.

From Settings, search for and select Accidental touch protection. Tap the switch next to Accidental touch protection to turn this feature on. Now you can have peace of mind throughout the day.
