Hello,I too really hate that at some times and the only way I found by now without rooting the device is with this app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/app-key-plus-change-lg-g3-volume-key-t2977136

It is not working on my G2 mini, no effects after install, no asking about default action for keys. Any other idea?
P. S. I got root.

[Q] How to unlock the dell streak without pressing the power button

Hi everyone,
As most of you, I am looking forward for the Froyo upgrade which is supposed to release this week.
While waiting for that, can I ask can you recommend me any application that can unlock the Streak without pressing the power button? At first, I like that way to unlock the phone but after that I discover that it makes the power button sunk, something like that button is eroded after pressing so many times.
Is there anyway to unlock the phone just by touching the screen like the Iphone.
I tried unlock v2.0 or some application like that but they all request press the power button.
I will be grateful if anyone can help me answering me this.
Thank you so much.
I second this request if anyone knows! Thanks all...
Carlos
I too would like a different way of turning the screen on without the power button, ideally I'd like an app that can allow me to turn the screen on with the camera button instead.....preferably only requiring the first level button rather than having to push it all the way in.....I'm still not 100% comfortable with where the power button is located at the moment as well as like the OP said, it kinda sits a little too far in (sunk) and makes it difficult to find or press sometimes.....plus I don't press the camera button all that much so I'd rather have that and that it'll be the first button you'll find along the top.
Do a search for remapping keys in this f forum. I believe someone reported success in mapping the camera key to wake from suspend. I don't think you'll be able to power on using the camera button, though.
I'm pretty sure when the screen times out it physically turns off, so you wouldn't be able to wake it up that way.
The camera button is certainly possible though, ill look into it.

I just had another thought. Tasker might do this for you. Instead of suspending, tasker can shut everything off and blank the screen with maybe a button press. Then when you touch the screen, everything is turned back on, and the screen lightens up as well. You will certainly lose more battery this way, but if the iphone is doing this, it must be the same there.
i used to use widgetlocker and it gives the option to unlock from any hardware key.
However i am using nolock and hence do no have a lock screen which is even better.
Suspend wake on a swipe or one of the soft keys would be great. The hardware button on my touch hd was getting difficult to press towards the end of an 18 months contract. My girlfriends went completely she had to remove the bit on top of the button and press in with the stylus to power on.
So anything to prevent adidonal wear on the streaks button would be a warm welcome

Using the soft keys the wake the phone is risky.
Its very easy to.press on the soft keys when they r in the pocket.

I came across this by accident
I installed screen suite locker to replace normal lockscreen but old lock screen kept coming up too, so I downloaded no lock to disable default lockscreen completly.
Works just how I wanted it portrait lock screen no default lockscreen, but now camera, volume & normal power button wakes up the streak
"menu unlock" from the market works perfectly. Its a black icon with pale grey horizontal lines

I have the iphone. I can't unlock the screen without touching either the home button or the power button on the top of the phone. Besides, wouldn't the phone keep turning on if touching the screen woke it up?
No because it's capacitive only your hand (ideally) would wake it up.
I'm going to try these solutions, because I do not want to cause anymore wear on the buttons.
Try the volume rockers, mine, froyo is powering up the screen. As for the lockscreen app i have simply lockscreen. It's not so fancy, but it does a simple good job. This combination, makes the Streak wake up with volume rockers, and no other key like camera or capacitive buttons. Also, incomming call screen is in portrait, even if I let the phone down on the table.
Chers,
I hate the lock screen and don't why we cannot disable it.
Anyway, I use the app calls No Lock, by Bod from Android Market. Now, I can simply use the volume up or down button to turn streak on and without the lock screen.
Instead of even the volume rockers, can we not do something with just the three capacitive buttons ?
Try "lock 2" from the market paying of fro free You can unlock with all the button and then slide with your finger.
I use it from whe I had my dream and it works very well

Camera Button - P769

Is there any way to set one of the physical keys as the camera button?

I don't understand why you would want to replace one of the physical buttons... You do KNOW we ONLY have volume buttons, home button and a power button? Right?...

Sounds like you're having a bit of "diarius" of the brain! now that's smart!
Seriously not sure you would want to do that but the menu button held down will get you to Google now so if it were possible I would start there.

The VGA camera in the front isn't very clear; gotta turn the phone around to take a good pic. Voice command doesn't work well outside. I was thinking of something like holding the power button while the camera app was open would = snap a pic instead of shutting the screen? :highfive:
Camera Zoom FX is a camera app. You can configure the volume up/down buttons as a shutter. There is also an app on the Play Store called Volshutter Camera, which allows you to configure the volume keys to activate the shutter.

Hello mensrius,
This is quite amazing, I am already using this feature with my p765 factory JB rom v20a. Pressing volume button (no matter up or down), while having stock camera app open, phone sets focus and snap a picture . May be you haven't tried it or this feature is missing in p769

Power off button

Hi. I'm having a trouble with my LG G2 mini. When I get the phone in my pocket, unintentionally, I hold the power off button and even when the phone is blocked, if you hold the power off button, it restart. Sometimes I'm walking on the street and I hear the booting sound from my pocket and I'm like... WTF?
Someone know how to deactivate this function? is a pain in the ass.
Thanks and sorry for my REALLY bad english
I've never noticed such thing as restarting, but I have similiar problem with Volume+ and Volume- - there's camera and quick note shortcuts by default and I can't get rid of them...
root -> exposed -> G2 tweaks box
There you can set the behaviour of the volume buttons.
Don't know if you can set power button, but I never had problems with it.
Yeah cool, but You have to pay to unlock those features.

So what?
You can buy a phone for a lot of money and tell us you can not afford a software for a few bucks?
Shame on you.
The developer spend a lot of time for it.
I simply prefer to spend my money on something, that I need more than that.
I buyed and works great with vol+ and vol- but not with power button. A shame, but hey, I have a great app to modify my phone [emoji2]

AFAIK long pressing of power button is not handled by the OS.
It works even when the device freezes or you tried to boot with a non working kernel.
Some kind of emergency restart that nags you.
I was very happy that it works this way while testing custom recoveries.
Ok now i'm having a new problem. If you deactivate de vol+/vol- function in the bloq screen if you press vol+ amd vol- at the same time for a few secods, the phone just can't start until you press the power button for a few seconds to restart it. I guess I will have to buy a case for my phone

Question Power On/Off Button Issue

Hi, i have Global Version with newest software. I have a issue with my phone. When I hold power button i don't receive options with power off, reboot ect. Only works on/off screen with click button. And now my question: did any of you have the same? For me it looks like software problem, because when I install application from Google Play something like Reboot everything's work. But it's anoying when all life you hold button and you have that option in android... In all phone there is no option to power off, restart device. Maybe someone have an idea? Thanks
Hold power + volume up for 3 seconds and power menu will appear
I have the Chinese version and the power button lint press launches an assistant feature. But if I press it longer, it loads the power options. Try pressing it longer hopefully it resolves the issue

You need to push all buttons (power and vol +) in the same time and power menu is working, ofc it's better to hold power button instead but it's better than nothing
Thanks tried again and it works still the software still feels a bit buggy but we should expect that with a new phone software updates should clear that.

For me it's not so bad at this state. Sometimes i have a glitch with screen freeze when I go to settings, or something like that. Previously i have a Mi 9 and it was for 3 years (now much software problems, Xiaomi: to much phones, to much software) but this phone is a rocket. Little software upgrades and it will be very good.

yes, same goes with me. tried combined key then accidentally found how to turn off this device. really annoying.
also after update to newer version, AOD not working anymore. and I dont know if finger print reader not always standby? before I am using Mi note 10 pro, and this phone can unlock it without need to wake up the device.
have bug also in 3D photos, the image not separated at all, so the result only photos with wobble movement. Hopes realme fix it soon.

Yeah, I also had this problems. The only way I found to solve it was to factory reset the device and do a clean install WITHOUT Cloud backup from Google (if I restore from Google, AOD, fingerprint icon, etc.. not working)

I found another bug. Hidden apps have a bug. It always unlock when I unlock the phone. It should be using secret code to activate the hidden folder, but now each time I unlock the phone using finger print, it automatically popup the hidden apps folder in unlock state.
Rather than hidden the apps, now apps that I want to hide became always appear right after unlock the phone screen.
