Our LG P500 can wake up screen with any key. It inconvenient for me when I just press any key: home, back, search, menu, the screen auto turn on.
So, are there any way to assign only power button for wake up?
when your phone is locked and you press any key, the screen only lights up for a few seconds. Even if you accidentally press home or search, nothing will happen until you unlock it? There's no reason to have a dedicated button just for waking up the screen.
It's a good idea to save more battery. But no solutions as of now.
Thanks, I'll try to find other solution
MIne turns off sometimes by itself

im getting trouble to power it on
sometimes even the power button doesnt do anything
i didnt lock the keys
it is happen 5 6 times in a day
most of the time the 2 buttons of the contact and the calendar doesnt power it on when im pressing on them while the o2 is off
does anybody had this problemm - maybe it is because some software that i installed ?

My contacts and calendar keys do not power it on either. Also, if you press one of those, it seems to lock out the power button for a few seconds. If you press them multiple times, it may take a while before it will power on. Mine always responds instantly to the power button as long as I have not pressed one of the others.

There are options, under security settings I think.
I have mine selected. It only allows the XDA to be switched on by pressing the power button. Doesn't always seem successful though..
I quite often sit on mine, so the key-lock feature is absolutely essential...

Tried to turn on my XDA yesteday and the button fell into the device ! This caused not to be able to turn on the screen unless I got a call. I downloaded Vito SystemTools' button maping program which allowed me to make my calendar button (when held down) to turn the screen on and off. The problem is that turning the screen on and off is not doing the same thing as the power button did. I was under the impression that all the power button did was turn the screen on and off to save battery and prevent unintended input. However, now my battery dies in 6-8 hours of use compared to the normal 2 days. Obviously, there is somthing more that the power button does.
What I'd like to know from the developers is if there is a program called by the power button and how I should access it. The button mapper program allows me to map any program I want to (almost) any hardware button (not the volume button). If it's a DLL or somthin I can probably write a wrapper program for it with some pointers.
I'm also in the market for a dummy xda or just another power button if someone has one just to get it to look better. However I like the functionality of holding down the calendar button for 1 second to turn the device on/off and would like to keep that permanently.

The power button is probably hard-wired to some processor wake-up logic. So when you turn the processor off, it's going to be very hard to make it wake up by anything else. You could write something that makes it wake up very very momentarily, say every few seconds, to check for a button-press. But my guess is what you want is a new power button.
damn Well i'm waiting on a dummy phone auction unless anyone over here has one to sell me.
I got exactly the same problem, the only difference is that i managed to get it back and i putted some silicone glue in it. It works and don't ask me how ;-)
Anyway, why don't you just press on the call - hang-up , calendar, volume button to wake the phone up?
Than just change the settings in battery power to make it shut down after 5min or 10min. It should help you reduce your battery life time since the phone gets automaticly in sleep mode after that time.
good luck,

I have my phone set not to wake up without the power button being pressed. I can turn this off but then buttons get pressed in my pocket since I don't like belt clip holders.
Help! My xda doesn't go to suspend mode, even if pressing the power button, after a second, the backlight goes back on and the today screen displayed. need help please... thanks.

Does it turn off and on when you push the power button? if so then it is working. What you need to do is go to settings, then power, then advanced, then on battery power set the minutes or seconds to turn of the device. Or maybe your device's buttons are accidentally pressed so what you need to do is button lock it so that it won't get pressed accidentally.

Not sure if this is what you mean but I was confused by the on/off switch on my IIi, I kept turning the backlight off rather than getting it to suspend.
The trick is to just press the power button for a short time and it will go off/on. If you hold it down you only put the back light on/off. I guess I shoulda read the manual.
First post btw, hi all.
The problem is, when you press the power button, it goes off just for a second then turns on again. I have changed the backlight and power settings, but still it just wont go to suspend mode. Even when pressing the suspend icon button in SBP Pocket Plus, the unit behaves the same. All I do now is turn off the backlight by pressing the power button for more than a second and just let the today screen be on, but it is eating away my battery life...
please help.
thanks
hard Reset ... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Anyone else have this (I have the Korean SK model, E210S), sometimes it just freezes on the screen lock. Touch screen unresponsive, holding down the power button gets me the menu and then it seems to work. Just tapping the power button (to turn off the screen) doesn't work, home button doesn't work, etc. Never need to reboot, but it is irritating.
Is this possible? I just want it to not turn on the screen. I notice in my front pocket sitting down sometimes the power button gets pressed and turns on the screen. I would prefer the home button only cause it is flatter and more flush with the device. I am able to edit the home button to either wake or not wake the phone, but the power button wakes the phone even when I erase the fields in all the system/usr/keylayout files. There must be a backup file or something somewhere telling the power button to turn the screen on. I use WidgetLocker also.
Are you sure it's not the home button turning your screen on? Pretty common occurrence...

No. I have disabled that and will leave it disabled until I can figure out how to disable the power button.
i would like to see this as well, the power button is too easy to press accidentally. i tried editing the keylayout files but i couldnt get it to work either.... here's my ideal setup: the home button wakes the phone, the power button does nothing unless you long press it to bring up the power options menu. or press it while the screen is on to turn off screen.
I too have this problem.
The power button is easy to press when it's on my pocket and I even have a case on it. The case makes it a little harder to press but I can still hear the click of the button when so I know when it happens.
