Hi,
I've got CM7 on my legend and I would like to know if the following features are possible and how:
- I want to be able to wake the device (turn on the screen) using only the trackpad button and not the power button. (the power button is quite proeminend and it gets pressed randomly in the pocket causing battery to drain)
- redial the last number by pressing twice the answer button from the headset (very useful when travellling on bike), as it is by default in the original sense ROM (actually in all sense ROM's that I have tried)
Thanks !
1) can be found in the cyanogenmod settings => input (i think thats the name in english) => trackball wake
2) not sure if its possible
Thanks for the reply but I knew about that option.
What I want is to wake the device ONLY with trackball. Basically to disable power button for unlock.

Hi,
I've found no info regarding the subject above, actually i found but not answers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943243&highlight=disable+power+button
Need to disable the power button options when long pressed in lock screen. Having it awaken is fine when pressed, but i have often found the phone on silent or flight mode (& once it was switched off ) when inside a jeans pocket (mostly).
Is there a modification, not to pop the power button options when in lock screen ?
Its annoying...
Im wonder too.
Send from My X10i Rooted GB v2.3.3
hmm...i never experienced this.
Solution is keep ur phone in upward direction in ur pocket..lol
I didn't realize that you had to be holding the power button AND home button down, with screen off, to reboot.
Feel free to close/delete/etc. this thread...

I have a quick question -- the touchscreen on my touchpad (Alpha 3) became unresponsive and does not become so after re-locking and unlocking the screen. The tablet itself is responsive (still updating time, can use hard buttons to change volume, see recent apps, and bring up the reboot/etc. options), but to my knowledge there is no way to force a shutdown using the hard buttons. Am I correct in this?
The battery is at 34%, so it shouldn't take too long to kill it if I keep the screen on a lot....
Thanks!
Thanks, that worked for me!
Hey, I have a Nexus 4 and I want to use the volume rocker as the power button to wake the device when it's in sleep. That's because sometimes the volume rocker is more accessable to me than the wake/sleep button. I know the app for this is tasker. Now here is the basic plan:
If the screen is off + VOLR changes (up or down) >> Screen on.
My problem is with the function that checks if the Volume has changed. I tried several things but nothing worked.
Is my idea possible without a rooted device? Is my plan aiming at the right direction? Please help.
Thanks in advanced
Oren.
I would like to know if this is possible as well. I am stock rooted on my Nexus 4.
Edit: this is no longer an issue in CM13.0 snapshot. I went ahead and upgraded and can confirm volume rocker wake (and double tap to wake) work.
Hi All I'm on CM12.1 (MT2L03 cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K2-mt2) and can't seem to figure this out. I had the volume buttons waking the phone from screen off in 4.3 working great...I used that for quite a while (since I used the option to end calls with power button need volume buttons to wake screen also saves wear to power button) so the hardware supports it but not sure how to get it working on lolipop (CM12.1).
In Jellybean, I just had to add 'WAKE' after the volume keys like:
key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE (in /system/user/keylayout to the kl files)
I tried this for CM 12.1 and it doesn't seem to work. Since it worked before I suppose it could work again if a setting is changed or something.
Also I tried adding:
ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=1
to my build.prop and rebooting and that didn't work either. (Setting it to 0 disables volume key waking)
The xposed module XUtilities option: Volume rocker wake also did not work.
The xposed module GravityBox doesn't have the option or I didn't see it there.
There's this reference:
http://cyanogenmod.github.io/cm_pla...ers/CMSettings.System.html#VOLUME_WAKE_SCREEN
which refers to VOLUME_WAKE_SCREEN setting (in CM API)
In the Buttons section of CM's settings, I have the End call (Pressing the power button will end the current call) option ON. One would think this would allow the volume buttons to wake the screen if the screen goes off during a phone call so you can wake it back up without ending the call. Also with this option on, on more than one occasion I went to turn my phone on just as an incoming call came in and used the power button which ended the call...so I've gotten in the habit of using the volume up/down buttons to turn on the screen getting around that issue (also saving wear and tear on my power button).
There's an app in the play store that can do what I want called DTSO (fails after time) VPL by prasi but it stays running and uses more battery power. The hardware solution that was working in 4.3 didn't require a background app to allow this feature and also didn't require extra battery power. So this isn't ideal. I'd rather have Cyanogenmod ROM directly support it or have a way to use it with it.
I want to be able to press the volume buttons and the screen come on like it used to. How?
Thank you for any suggestions :fingers-crossed::good:
Hello,
recently the power button stopped working properly on my UMI zero phone.
1.) I am looking for a solution to remap the power button function to a different key. (for example volume down or up key) - The phone should be able to be powered up by the remapped key when powered off by low battery etc.
If not possible to remap the key completely
2.) A autostart function would solve this problem too. for example when a charger is connected to the phone. I just want to avoid any lockout situation where my battery drains and I am not able to power the phone up anymore.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Any Ideas? Power Button stopped working completely now.
