my s6 keeps turning itself

[AC Question]

my s6 keeps turning on by itself as if the home key is constantly being pressed. what is causing it and how can i fix it. the home bottom seems to be ok. i saw on youtube a vid about rubbing it with rubbing alcahol. iv tried rubbing it without the alcahol and it does fix for a few mins but then keeps turning back on again

That may therefore need repairer attention.

Welcome to Android Central! Does this persist in Safe Mode? https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-29226. If so, then I agree with belodion -- take it to a repair shop.

I know some newer Galaxy phones have this feature that makes them turn on when you hover your hand over the camera. Maybe you have it turned on and thats why the phone is constantly turning on.
