my suggestion pre-supposes that your touch screen works. If so, try this, in sequence: Go to Control Panel. At the bottom of the screen, click on "General" the click on "Phone Preferences". Under Preferences, click on "Locks". In the Locks menu, the keylock settings are found, including disabling the automatic key lock or re-enabling it if you wish to do so.

There is also another way, which will also bring you to the Locks menu: Go to "Phone", then click "Edit", "Preferences", "Locks".

Hope this helps.
