[Q] Change Power Button behaviour on call in CM7? - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hey guys!
In CM7, when I hit the Ace's power button, it ends the call. I don't want this, I want the good old turn-off screen, like on stock roms. I searched everywhere and I didn't found any option to change this.
Can someone point me what can I do?
Thanks!

Setting/call setting and tick on always use proximity

This is useless to me, since I almost never use my phone holding it. I use the earphones that come with it.

no damn it there is an option !!! check my screenshot!!!
which cm7 are u using btw????

I don't think the setting for the power button is in Accessibility on CM, try looking around the CM menu, I think that's where it is.

Edit: after reading your post below it appears that you do have eyes
btw i had cm7 by vo-1 and i think that option was present in accessibility even in his rom( currently i have cm7 by F.A.T )

No, I don't have eyes.
There are a few different variations of CM, and the one I used to have (I think it's the one by vo-1) had that setting in the CM menu.

Even LeWa has it

cm7 power button ends call in galaxy ace
I switched over to cm7 on my galaxy ace a week ago. Its very frustrating that the power button ends the call, i always disabled the proximity sensor in stock firmware and kinda used to that.
everytime i try to turn the screen off in a call, it actually ends the call. There is no option in accessibility settings to prevent power button from ending the call (screenshots attached)
I also downloaded an app phone settings manager and that too has no effect.
please help!

Same as here. Using CM7 from vo-1. I think that I'll switch to the one provided by FAT. Can someone confirm if it has that option in Accessibility?
This is what I have. Apart being in portugese, of course.

you can download "Screen Off and Lock" from the Play Store.
this is what I did.
so when someone calls. press the home button to go to your home screen then click the shortcut you have or if not go to your app drawer and press it to turn off your screen.
I'm using go launcher so I set the application to be activated when I glide down my finger in my home screen.

Nah, too much trouble. I want it more simple, like it was on stock. And it has to be somewhere on the settings, maybe I'm just not finding it.

I've used Grif's CM7 and in that ROM, POWER BUTTON ENDS CALL option was in Accessibility only

I don't think that I'll need this anymore. Yesterday I was using the phone when I needed to hang-up the call, and it was right in front of me, so I didn't needed to power-on screen, unlock it and then hang-up. I just hit the power-button and done!
Also, I think that I can live with the screen-delay to power-off.

Whatsapp vibration pattern
Can anyone tell me if theres an app to increase the intensity of vibration if we get a message on whatsapp? I have to keep my phone on vibration in class and always miss out on the messages as the vibration intensity is too low.
I figured how to change it for gmail and sms through an app but how can i change it for other apps like whatsapp?

This seems to allow a full range of screen brightness adjustment but doesn't seem to offer any option to keep the buttons turned on when the screen is on.

Still no go. Used both the brightness and the timeout set buttons. Button backlight only stays on for about 5 seconds.
same here.....
At first I didn't like the light not staying on either, however after about a week, it was pretty easy to remember which the 3 buttons are and where... even in the dark. Now I don't mind at all.
Tip... touch lightly anywhere on that side and it lights up.

Phone Keeps Entering Lockscreen on Busy Call - Help

i'm on absolution 3.7. how can i stop my phone from entering the lockscreen when a call is busy? when a call is busy, the phone goes to the lockscreen. how do i make it enter the dialpad instead?
I believe in the phone/Settings and should be an option on where to exit after call, at least there is on my IncS/ICS-4.0.4:thumbup:

hi, TheCrow.. can you tell me where in the phone settings i can do this? i cant find it. thanks.
On your phone go and push the phone icon and the dial/touch pad will be than at the bottom of the screen you have the 3 small touch horizontal lines that's your menu option, than after you touch that while in the phone dial pad you will see Settings and maybe 2-3 options down it asks something like where to exit to after phone hangs up so let me know if you find it ok

i think youre referring to the setting, 'return to dialer after call'. i checked and unchecked that option and it does nothing. it goes back to the lockscreen. but i noticed something interesting. when i call a busy number and i dont have the phone to my ear (screen is on), the call returns to the dialer. but when i have it to my ear (screen is off), then take it off my ear (screen is lit again), thats when it goes to lockscreen. theres got to be a way to edit a file to fix this sh'it, like, disable the lockscreen when the phone is on your ear (screen is lit).

yeah... absolutely.. how do we begin this? i'd like to 'star' it, like you said. what must we do first?
You should go through a recording of one run, say about 20mins or so while at same time performing acts that you feel made the issues and than when you go back to look at the record just look for 'error' areas in usually red color than take a screen shot of the highlighted error lines than post the screen shot and maybe we or others can look into it

Camera shutter click / noise disable & screenshots?

Also - the screenshots, anyone know how to make it how it used to be with the home and power buttons?

Yes there's a thread floating around, I can't remember exactly where it is. But use root explorer and edit the shutter.ogg file iirc

Anyone else?, this little puppy had been out a few weeks now!
Wasn't this made not changeable *atleast within the default app* because of something that happened in Europe. About no spy camera shots or something.. They wanted the noise so you couldn't take hidden pictures. Or something along those lines..
So if thats for Europe chances are they will include the option to disable it in the US varient right?
Screenshot works for me just like the s2 did. Home + power. They need yo be pressed at exactly the same time and held for a second or two.

I've tried /dozens/ of times - it simply doesn't work for me.
To disable the shutter noise you need to delete the audio files, which requires root access.
Is there a way without deleting the files? Just replacing the apk so I can have an option of sound out not sound?
you can use pretty much any of the other hundreds of camera apps in the market. most of them will correspond to the volume setting of your ringtone so if you set the system sound to silent they will have no shutter sound.
my least favourite thing in the whole world is shuttersound, except in burst modes.

thats beacuse in s3 you have to hold both buttons one or two seconds.
you can do it too by dragging the side of your hand through the screen from left to right
The sad part is that because of a few people that deteriate the gene pool, we have to put up with that damnable shutter sound.
Thing is, if we replace the camera with another one on the market, which one would be better - the built in one or the market one? Does the built in camera app make those great shots or the hardware?
Open Root Explorer - Navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
Mount R/W
Rename shutter.ogg to shutter.ogg.bak or just delete it.
To undo, just rename it back

To mute camera just mute the phone with your volume buttons.
Screen shot still works with Power and home button just push and hold them for a couple of seconds.

This solution is quite widespread online but many people say it doesn't work for them.
I can confirm it's working for me - 16GB, pebble blue, Vodafone, UK - but it seems different markets can't stop the shutter sound this way.
Is there really no way to disable it without root

Phone application behaves strange....

Hi guys,
i been having this very annoying problem with my GS3 LTE (9305) but when i compare to other GSIII's it seems only mine behave like this but i cant find any reason or any option for the cause.
Basically the problem is that when i call someone and the phone screen goes to off sometime i want to wake up the screen and press the button below the screen and what my phone does is to minimize the call application but on my friends phone the call application stays and only the screen is turned on.
Can you guys please help me finding the root cause to why my call application minimizes itself when the screen is off?
I been searching for every option there is and cant find anything useful, also i have never installed any other dialer application or anything like that.
Please help me this is getting me nuts.

I meant Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean roms... Jkays framework fixes this issue.
If i recall correctly it has something to do with a setting in s-voice I think. Also it happens with any application when the screen turns off.

Yes, this issue isn't unique to the dialler. If you let the screen timeout with any application then press the home key, it returns to the home screen.
The workaround is to make sure than in the S-Voice settings, you have "Open via the home key" option set. After this, a single home key press will wake the device without returning to the home screen.
Ask this question in the appropriate section

Sadly that didnt work either. I had actually S Voice disabled but enabled and did what you said but it still minimizes the call application
EDIT: very strange , tested calling 4-5 times and suddenly after my friend called me it started working. I called my other cell before and it works fine now. THANK ALLOT MAN.
EDIT2: funny i tried to disable S-Vice again and to my surprise it stil works.

Stop warning me, i'm a grown man

Why does Samsung feel is necessary to warn me that my headphones are getting louder and could possibly damage my hearing?
Now even the brightness level has to warn me that I am making the screen bright
I am a grown Azz man with two children a mortgage and a job. I'm pretty sure I can handle the responsibility of not blowing my eardrums out, or burning my retina with my Note 8.
What's even worse is now the threshold warning is even lower for the headphone volume. It used to be about 80% now its about 60%.
The one thing I miss it out custom roms is that we used to be able to disable that. Is there any mods available to stop those warnings? Probably the most frustrating thing about modern Samsung devices in my opinion

You'll see that won't stop the notification message after reboot. That's a parental control to lock it to a set max where children cannot go past without a PIN code.
There is another way using tasker and autotools.
True. Hopefully Samsung fixes it in a future update... ? This way works for now though unless I go the tasker route later on. I don't reboot my phone often this soon into the phones life anyway, and it's not a huge pain to go into the settings and change it until my next reboot.

Once you click OK, you'll be fine until next reboot without dealing with that step.
In this very subforum is a tasker trick that seems to fix it for most folks.

I'm glad you got this to work for you. I've updated the OP to say that you must hit the "play" button to test this before it will work. I tested this by turning it off, rebooting, then allowing the popup to come back. Then I tried simply re-enabling this event and rebooting. The popup came back. It did not start working again until I hit play to test it. Then it survived every reboot again.
To the OP I'd say visit my thread here to get it to turn off forever.

I'm in South Africa, so probably same rule apply
/sad panda
The EU or International version only warns about high headphone volume the once after reboot. This is the case with my N950N. Once you click OK It never comes up again until you reboot. From what I can gather this is what the option in the 3 dots does on the Snapdragon version. Stops it coming up every single time. The International version does not have the 3 dot menu because that option to stop the warning coming up every single time is already enabled by default.
i dont have that option as well
In most case it's not because they care so much about our well being. They place these sort of obstacles there for legal purposes. Pressing "ok" is basically signing a release of liability for any hearing damages caused by our increasing of the volume. I wouldn't bet on them fixing this any time soon.
Go into developer settings and turn off absolute volume?
Wow.. how sad.. never knew this.. THANKS!
youre clearly not if you made this thread..
