Cannot unlock screen, after screen autolocks? Several threads on the internet, but no solution?

As in the Headline,

i have reset the phone, reinstalled it all, but its still locking the phone up.

I am resetting the phone every 5 minutes now, this is getting fairly annoying!

Are you sure that power button works normally?Boot the phone in safe mode,see if the same occurs:

is this a regular failure for this phone?

I think that the button could be bad, but there are so many threads on the internet about bad software, this seems strangely familiar!?

Seems to happen, every time i get an email.

The only app i have now is my mobile banking, and that cant be the problem.

if your thinking of the hard reset, then yes, it works, until the screen locks

I tend to believe this is a 3rd party app.Boot in safe mode.
