Anyone with the problem of hardware button EXPLORER and MAIL?
When the device is off and I press one of this buttons it turns ON!!!
Even if I assign anoither program to this butons same problem occurs!
What a waist of power if I cannot solve this!
Solved by RABDO!
settings>Key Lock
Make sure it is set to 'Lock all buttons except Power button'
Recently I am having problems with my phone, and am wondering if it is a software or hardware problem.
I have tried loading the TNT4 rom & WS5SE roms (this is a g4), and there is no change (im on the Tnt4 one now).
The touchscreen works okay, but the soft key buttons do not. The right bottom one is okay, the left one triggers the right one, the send button show the letters "uytga" on the phone screen when i press them, the end button shows "mn" or something, the camera button works perfect, the comm manager button is the same as the voice button (even when i map it with a program it says "button 4").
It even happens on the soft keys on the keyboard when i slide it out.
Also I used Start-sSPL to put the roms on. Is there a way I can get the OEM one back on or fix the button problem?
Any help will be appreciated.
Hi All, I have owned a lot of HTC phones and now I have the HD, its the first time I see HTC phone with such small, thin, and hard to press power button !!
especially in the dark, I cant press it and wake up my phone easily !!
I MANAGED TO TWEAK MY HD and now I wake up my device pressing the volume button, but again I have new problem : sometimes when I carry my phone the volume get pressed by mistake and the ringer get muted or low and I miss some calls !!!
Any solution for this problem so I can wake up my phone from the standby without pressing the microscopic power button !!
Take out the stylus and insert it back again. That wakes up the device. Otherwise you might want to search for a G-sensor enabled "wake-up" application. "Shake_it_to_wake" so to speak...

How can you use it to wake up the device? I don't see that option in the description, except the default stylus in and out...

I guess S2U won´t help you with waking up your device but if you use volume buttons it will protect you from accidental muting your phone.
I found power hard to press, too, but then I looked closely: This power 'button' is indeed non-symmetrical - at least on *my* device: it stands up a bit on one side, the left side, which is closer to the middle of the HD. So I press it *there*, because obviously enough that's the place where the sensor is located. It works easy every time.

Can you tell me how?
Ducasito. Good observation. I wondered why sometime it was easy and sometimes hard. So the slight non-symmetrical button is not a manufacturing fault but a very subtle design feature. Now I know which side to hit. Thanks
Seems all HD's are different OR I have a very heavy finger.
All I need to do to get it to wake it lightly touch the power button and it comes on.

I suppose it is just a matter of "where" you push the button. Just push it on the left edge (where the small led is placed) and you will not need that much pressure to switch the device on or off. The button sensor is actually under that left edge. the picture shows the powerbutton part (picture taken from the HTC Touch HD service manual). Under the left edge of it is the sensor, so putting the pressure there is the best way of pressing the button

You can use AE button plus. I use this to convert my volum buttons to up and down buttons on single click, select/ok on double click, and volume on hold and press.
Thanks for your answer but I´ve a further question:
Do you "wake up" (from standby) the blackstone by using this AE button? I tried to use this software but I couldn`t wake up the Touch HD from standby by using the volume buttons.
Hi *.
I've managed to torn flex with 5 buttons Until I found one to replace, I need to adjust HD2 to be usable without them. Without "menu" and "back" I can live, "call" is replaced with manila shortcut to "Phone". Two buttons left - "home" and "end call/power".
I've installed AEBPlus and old volume control, to be able to map volume keys. Long up is mapped to "show today" and it's almost working - hides current application, but doesn't switch to main manila tab. Is there a way to do this?
The bigest problem is with long pressed vol. down. I've assign it to "Switch display Off/On". First function [switching off] works flawless, but waking device doesn't.
Sure there's "shake 'n' wake" and it works great, but hard to call it convenient. Sometimes I have to shake it hard for over a second to wake up. Lookin' like an idiot Is there a way to wakeup HD2 with vol.down.? I'd really appreciate this.
Shameless bump. No idea why, but shake'n'wake stopped workin' (I haven't changed anything) Few restarts didn't help. So right now I can't put HD2 into sleep, or even lock the screen - because there's no way (or at least I don't know it) to prevent lock screen from suspending device.
500£ device unusable because of stupid flex worth quid or two
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]
"DefaultKeyLock"= 0
restart。。。done

Hi all !
I've just used Niki100 for about a week (used Excalibur before). Just want to ask you guy one question
I'm using ROM WM 6.5.3 Lite by Rataplan.
When the device is locked, after 1 minute, the backlight offs and the system sleeps and I have to press the power button (on top) or slide the keypad up for it to turn the backlight on so I can slide to unlock the device.
My question is : is there anyway to turn the backlight on by pressing the green or red button or the dpad so I can slide to unlock the device ? I dont want to use the power button frequently cuz it may easily sink or slide the keypad up
Or in case it's impossible, is there anyway to turn the backlight off when the device is locked without put it in sleep ?
Thank everybody
Sorry for my bad english cuz i'm a vietnamese
