So you need to enable lock screen?
I don't understand you, so that's all you can get out of me buddy

And in the same time it stay at the same page that you were using but when I press home button when screen went off I go to home screen instead of just turning the screen on :/ did you get it ?

It's probably because Svoice is removed.

Use the power button instead of home button.

Your screen thinks that It's still on so, you could just swipe or touch the screen instead of the home key.
It takes 5-10 seconds after screen goes black for the device to go to sleep.

u can use a widget to keep screen on,like "screen ghost widget" to toggle..otherwise wait 10-15 sec after screen turns of,then u will return to the last open page/app.
have a nice day..

Are there any mods that can change what the S-Pen can do? Or anyway we can customize it? Like maybe making holding the button and swyping up to go back to home screen?
Thanks

Swiping up is the same as pressing the menu button, down is home screen and left is back.

How about you just turn off the lock screen and whenever your phone is sleeping, once the home button is pressed, it goes directly to your home. The only solution so far for your issue.

Really? Press your gpen against screen while holding the botton in. Another method is to swipe the side of your palm across the screen. Like your brushing something off.

Flashlight turn on sometimes while on lock screen

On my stock,rooted galaxy s3 sometimes when I press power button to unlock my screen. Camera's flash turns on and is kept on until I unlock my phone... Also there is a sun icon on to top bar...
Is this any kind of virus or bug... Or this feature is activated with some sort of voice/motion?
