Locking won't work unless you go to start, Lock, then the mail and locking via the power button will work again.
That's what i meant. Start->Lock and then unlock and open email.
Not power button to turn off the screen and power button to turn it back on
Anyway, i hope it helped.

I just thought an explanation was needed. You can imagine the response would have been "but it doesn't lock when I press the button"

Heh - I thought you were just sick of answering the same question over and over like I am!

Is this supposed to do anything?
If you have the "power off after..." option set, then you can switch it back on again with that button. Other than that, I'm not sure it has a purpose.
Cheers,
Steve.

Good question. Something i was to scared to ask. Because it does nothing for me.

I've got my Exec setup to switch off the screen backlight after a short delay when on battery. Pressing the lightbulb button switches the backlight on again.
If you don't set your exec to switch off the backlight, then I can see why this button won't be massively useful for you.
Read the threads on how to assign apps to the lightbulb button, to make it useful.

Got that set - but the button doesn't do anything for me. I'll try the reg hack version that's in this thread and see if it then works.

If you mean you cannot lock the device long pressing the end button, yes, it is a known issue. See this thread

Hi,
Would it be possible for someone here to create an app with the ability to solve the "only power-button activates the lock screen after standby" issue?
I'm thinking that this would be something a lot of Desire owners would see come in handy.
I would look into it myself, but not being a developer by profession my coding skills are zero. I've tried the app 'No Lock', but it just doesnt do it for me as my Desire wakes up in my pocket with the lockscreen deactivated.
(Couldn't find another thread regarding this, so forgive me if it's already been posted before.)

David

There is an app already called "myLock" which has an advanced mode that allows you to double press any button to unlock the screen, just don't use it with the HTC pattern lock as it messes up.
+1 for this.
Btw, you can try LockBot. It is neat, but the disadvantage is that once you get a call, the lock deactivates, which is plain irritating. If you are carrying your cell in your pocket and you receive a call, it might happen that not only the call gets answered/rejected but it can start dialing some random numbers as well! has happened to me once.
So its not perfect, but it works ok.
I just hated pressing the power button every time i had to unlock the phone.
Thanks. This is actually a usefull tool, and does the job well. However, i'd still like a tool that lets me choose a specific button for activating the unlock slider screen, as id like to keep the slider.
But thanks for the advice.

I've been using myLock for a few days now and updated this morning. I don't see the advanced features.
It's under mode select for me, press where it says auto unlock.
I believe this is what you want.
I press the menu button to wake up the phone, and menu or slide to unlock it.

I believe this would work only if your phone is rooted?
Wow, i installed it, awesome...right?
Kinda, except the home button is glitchy, i click it and the current app im on will disappear and reappear, so i click it again and the same happens so im stuck in the app. The only way is to reset the phone.
Please help.
Thanks

Why dont you click the back button?
Btw, this thread is for "Development".
I guess
Sorry for wrong place to post but still, even if i press the back button, that will sometime's take me to some random app i opened half an hour ago and then wont go back any further and then the home button will still do the same thing.
Dont press and hold just press and release
Hello everybody, there is a "dismiss all" button on the notification shade of the nexus 4, next to quick settings, and I accidentally pressed it and it erased all my notifications. I was wondering if there is a way to restore the notifications? Thankyou in advance
The only thing I can think of is a reboot but why would you even want them back?

truth is that i am new with the cellphone and i had like 5 notifications and havent read them all and while playing i pressed the button without knowing the consequences. its not that big of a deal but it just got me curious. btw, how do i reboot my cellphone? leave the power button pressed right?
thanks anyways
happens. usually they come back after reboot. i dont know the internal rules for that but i observed they often do. anyway, you know the apps that can throw notifications, they're all listed under settings / accounts. takes you 10 sec to check them for new content.

Thankyou! i didnt know that they were listed under settings / accounts. im gonna try that soon :fingers-crossed:
well not all of them, any app can push notifications, but those that sync with your phone are usually listed there.

Rebooting can also be done by just turning it off and on again.
