I want to unlock my mobile automatically as soon as the display
turn's on (on pressing home button) after taking the mobile out of the
pocket

I have created a profile with the following contexts:
Context: Not Proximity Sensor
Context: Display On

Enter Task:
WidgetLocker Unlock

But this works randomly (only 50% times)
whats wrong??

Well I did a bit of searching (http://groups.google.com/group/tasker/
browse_thread/thread/5c4f55691bba6333/) and noticed that
other users have also faced this problem.

I did a bit of testing and playing with tasker...and I may have found
a bug/limitation with tasker (or limitation in android itself)

I was able to verify that as soon as the screen turns on ("screen on"
event is triggered), the tasker's proximity sensor state doesnt check
the
sensor (whether covered or uncovered) until their is a CHANGE of
state...

Now only if tasker could check the state of proximity sensor as soon
as the phone gets out of display mode....
