Locking phone while on call

I cannot tell you how many times I've hung up on someone when trying to lock my phone while on a call. Sometimes I can lock it no problem without hanging up and other times it hangs up.

Does anyone know if there's a trick to prevent this from happening?

Thanks in advance

Seems as though I may have answered my own question.

If you're on speaker phone and hit the "lock" button it will NOT hang up, if you have it to your ear and hit it it WILL lock.

Also, if you hit home button twice it will lock your phone with passcode lock if you have one.
