Can you remap power on/off button.

I own an O2 Mini & Eten M500.
Is there any possibility of remapping the power on/off button to another hardware key since my actual button is acting funny with me.(it works most of the time, but certain times even if I sit on it it wont power on the device. Power off is not a problem since I programmed it to sleep after xx secs.)
Any developer gurus out there who can develop a prog. for me :roll:
Thanks in advance for the help.

I dropped my HTC Hermes device and now the power button is stuck in.
Is there anyway to remap the power on/off function to another hardware button? Specifically the comms button.

well, i would like to delete my message, but dont know how?
i can edit it but i cant delete it, right?

You can use "AE Button Plus" to map all the other keys to other various functions, "power off the device" is among them...
you can even specify actions for single press, double press, triple press or long press for each button.. good luck

ae button or pqzII is okay

Thats quite strange and I've never heard that one before. I'm guessing there could be some oxidation on the contacts of the power button.
As a test to be 100% sure its the button which is the problem, have you tried calling the device to wake it up when the power button refuses to work? Reason being, is that I suspect its actually the device freezing and not waking up rather than just the power button malfunctioning. If the power button refuses to work and you can successfully wake up the device by other means (eg, a phone call) then you can explore other alternatives

how do i map leftsoftkey as the redkey(Red Phone Button) and the redkey as leftsoftkey?
current hardware keymap:
leftsoftkey controller rightsoftkey
greenkey controller redkey
what i want:
redkey controller rightsoftkey
greenkey controller leftsoftkey
reason for tiz is i cant seem to get morphgear to use the redkey or the greenkey even after mapping in the game. by mapping leftsoftkey to the redkey, i can then play the game with "A" "B" buttons using my right hand. so "A" will be mapped to rightsoftkey and "B" mapped to "leftsoftkey"(physically redkey).
i hv tried ae button plus.. tried unbinding redkey still no use. tried binding single press to virtual key too but to no avail.

It could help

This one is from the Hermes forum, at least gives you a couple of ideas on how to...

Rigging screen off (like PWMP)
I would like help on this too. Is there any way to rig the device so the power button only ever turns on/off the screen (like windows media player does) or at least is there a program or cab someone can design to do this????
Thanks in advance.

I've figured out how to do the above, if anyone wants to know pm me.

Since upgrading to WM6, I accidentally found that holding the power button down for about 3 seconds will power off the device fully. ie, when you press the power button again, it boots up from the white HTC screen

yes, I know that way for powering off, but I'd like to do it by soft instead of using the power botton.
Does anybody know if this is possible ?

Power off app
You may want to give this little app a try, I haven't used it so can't vouch for it...

Good luck
* I tried the app, it isn't anything fantastic... but this little beauty does what you're looking for I think - thanks to our friend iiiox (I've tried it and it rocks!)

But is there a real Shut Down software ?

Hi guys, I'm looking for a real shut-down software that let me power off my trinity with a click instead of the power button pushed for three seconds.
Can someone help me ?
Thanks

not that i know off
because before wm5 it would result in clearing of all memory
and after it would result in no alarms or calls or other notifications working
while it was off

i'm interested, too....don't care of alarm or other notifications, i just want to poweroff the device without pressing power button for 3 sec.

i too would like this but, as Rudegar has said - No it doesn't exist, it's been discussed before on this forum and i think there were some reasons it is not possible

P3600i can be power off by press & hold power button 5s only

Crap....it's really a bad news that PSShutXp woudn't work well on P3600i...damn

Power Button does not work...

Hi Guys!
if got a big problem, the Power Button on my Herald does not do anythink. The switch is broken, so could i set up an other button (f.e. the Commmanager Button) to be the Power Button? Only as fix for some month, than i want to grab me a new HTC. Thank you very much, i hope anyone have somethink for me.
Thanks!

No, you cannot switch your power buttons functionality to a different hard-key. The power button is hard wired to the main bored to provide that function, its not software based like the other ones are.

hm thats mad, okay lucky for me i can get an other one on frieday

Power Button problem

Hi! My power button dosen't work, is there a way to fix it? Or maybye a siftware that can do the same thing like the power button. Thanks in Advance.

Hello ololizoz,
For a fix for the button, it depends on the problem itself. Maybe the plastic button isn't touching the eletronic button, for some reason. That would be a matter of replacement only. Otherwise, you/someone would need a small soldering equipment AND the right part to replace it.
If you don't mind using a software to power your screen on/off, try Homescreen++, I believe it can power the screen on and off.
Cheers
