guys, any of you facing issue whereby the screen unlocks on it's own EVERY BLOODY TIME? this is annoying and killing the battery real bad. please help me out, thanks in anticipation.

well no, it's my friend's note 3. i initially thought it was due to some bad apps too, but i did a factory reset for the whole device, and with everything empty it still happens. now i am beginning to suspect it's a hardware issue. after hours of googling i've yet to find anyone else facing the same issue. when left inactive, the phone screen goes dim, locks as usual, but unlocks itself instantly, same thing goes for locking the screen with the power button, unlocks instantly as well. guess i will just need to bring his phone to the samsung centre.
