Hey all, well, that's it, the power button doesn't turn off my screen, instead it takes me home (launcher). Any ideas?

Take a look in /system/user/keylayout/
Make sure power button is set to WAKE
Also if this doesn't work You can try some apps to shutdown screen.

You told the Headset Controller was infected. Resoring inffected app will lead to the same thing. You have to locate this app and do not restore it

Then You're Stuck up really hard, Try both Hard and soft reset after flashing the ROM again. It might help

Just a quick question, if you change the direction for the power button, and your screen doesn't wake up by other hardware buttons, how the hell do you turn your phone on?

Take the battery and put it back. Start up the device, and wait until it boots. When it finishes booting, change the screen timeout to 30 mkins, and every 20 mins touch the screen. Hope this helped xD
Well, I was just asking, but thanks.
Lol, what if I had a unremovable battery?

Is there any app that can actually power down the MoPho and restart it? I am NOT talking about the fast reboot apps that don't actually power down the phone.
Preset Reset worked perfectly for my retired Palm Pre. There are certain things I definitely miss about that phone. (sniff... sniff...)

You are referring to this one, right? There are so many reboot type apps in the Market.
Do any of these "real" reboot apps allow you to schedule reboots? For example, I'd like to reboot my phone at 3 am every day to hopefully reduce the number of random reboots I receive.
This is it..but i don't know of any apps that do scheduled reboots...

Sorta unrelated, but why?
If you're doing it because you don't want to waste the battery, I'll just let you know that LED lights don't affect too much to the battery.
If you're doing it because it's annoying, then be my guest!

go sms works perfectly as you described, and its my choice, but see what works best for you.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

True, I've had multiple iPhones as well. I actually HATED that feature and I still don't like it on my note. It should come with a damn LED notification like 99% of every android phone.

Going to need a little more info, for a good guess.
Could be the battery, the last app you installed, trying to connect-reconnect to wifi, did you do nandroid backup ?
Backup and do a Factory Reset.
It's happening on a couple apps, they don't seem to sense that I'm holding the phone in landscape. I've cleared cache and I've done a soft reset. Running the base 7.3 with no other problems. Any ideas?
Thanks

Did you happen to have flashed Nocturnal mod ?
I flashed it, didn't like it so I tried to restore. Got an MD5 error so I had to flash the base again to get rid of the nocturnal mod.

I had the exact same happen to me, tried everything I could think of to fix it. Finally had to use lgnpst to restore, then reroot unlock and flash base.
I think I'll just wait to see if the next rom fixes it if that's the case. Does anyone know if there is an option to calibrate the sensors? I've looked but haven't found it

Under display in system settings, the last option but it will not help. You can be up and running in no time, lgnpst doesn't wipe data and there is an automated install script. Once you have everything downloaded it runs in few minutes.
I'll try that then, thanks
