Phone keeps waking up and doing things behind my back

I blank/darken/sleep the phone with the power button and put it in my pocket. Minutes later, I'll take it out and find it has awaken itself and started opening random apps, opening and going through settings menus, browsing through Amazon, in the process of ordering something, changing settings, even started calling someone random in my contacts list, etc. It WILL NOT stay asleep when I darken it to put it in my pocket. I have the 'Gesturing' mode turned off, yet it still keeps doing this $@$*.

????? I cannot make it stop.....

Samsung A15 on Android, AT&T.

Thanks in advance,

Do you have double tap to turn screen or lift to wake turned on (is this the gesturing mode you are talking about) or always on display on? These could cause it to turn on in your pocket.

Also, what android version are you on?
