So if your phone is locked and you place your finger on the home button, it unlocks without you having to press the home button or anything?

The pressing of some button has to come first. I guess I'm not understanding either. <g> On 2/4/16, Alan Paganelli <alanandsuza...@earthlink.net> wrote: > I'm not quite sure I understand what your doing.
