you may want to try and see if AEButton plus can do the job. Make those keys managed by AEB plus and set them to nothing. Or rather set them to do something else, otherwise they would be wasted.
sweet cheers dude will try them

I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

NICE!!!!! Works good so far. Now I won't be divorced! LOL
Is there a way to configure the optical button on the htc incredible so that clicking it wakes the phone up (like pressing the top button)? I'm looking for functionality thats a little bit similar to how the iphone wakes up since I find that button at the bottom much more accessible than the button on the top.
id be interested in this as well. The top button isnt very intuitive to me
Search the market for "lock screen" or "lockscreen" or just "lock" (or maybe "button"? I thought there was a button switcher app too).
Many of the 3rd party lock apps will bring up the lock screen by pressing one or more of the physical buttons (volume, camera, etc). I bet at least one of them comes on with the optical button.
it has been done on the nexus one with the trackball. i think you need root access or at lease custom rom.
Ok, I found this.

Try the "lockbot" app. It is probably about all that is available right now, but the Incredible will be extremely popular. There will be more hacks/tweaks/apps/whatever for this device than any to date, I suspect.

Thanks for the heads up. And I agree I think we are going to see a whole new level of geek with this phone
"myLock" in advance mode.
Great app, and thank you for the info. I was looking the same solution.
Mylock works great. Although I did have one occurence of it locking up the phone.

Are you talking about the app called myLock auto unlock? I am not finding an advanced mode or way to get in advanced mode. Care to explain a little more? and this is able to make it so you can use the trackpad to wake/unlock the phone?
NoLock works for this as well but I wish there was a way to allow the optical pad to work without allowing the volume buttons to work at the same time.
Tried myLock just now and both seem like good apps.

just wondering why you sport the "Big Black" avatar?
And to those who think im being racist by calling him "Big Black", its his name on the Reality TV show with rob dyrdeck.
I'm not sure how other Rhodiums are set up...but the Tilt2 has the rather annoying feature of 'full screen' pop up volume indicator always coming up when you press the volume buttons. But in a very select few programs just a sidebar pops up...almost like a mini version. Is there any registry setting to change to make the 'mini' one the default?
This cab works for me....

I actually prefer the full screen version, it is easy to use with the finger. Touching to the left or right of the volume indicator will remove the display and go back to your normal screen.

Does this make it smaller, or remove it? Reading it over, it seems that the latter is the case.

It removes it. I like it, the volume buttons are more responsive instead of take a second or 2 to actually change, and the full screen is annoying.
I was bored at work and decided to poke around the registry to see if I could figure this out. I think I'm on to something. When you go to: /HKLM/SOFTWARE/HTC/VolumeOverlay/InhouseEnable2ndUI there are a bunch of folders for apps on the phone. I went into Manila and set it to 2 and then went back to the home screen (I have Sense 2.5 active) and had a little volume bar at the top of the screen when I went to change the volume. I may try to add other apps and see if it works, but I'm lazy, so I might just go play some tower defense instead. Hope this helps get someone else a little more motivated to help. hehe

Setting this value to "1" will give you the slim vertical slider on the left of the screen, but this slider is not operable by touch on the screen, it is only a visual aid to let you know where your volume is at when you press the vol up and down hardware buttons.
Can anyone tell me how to exit Vendetta after you start playing. I tried everything I could think of before finally multitasking out and using force stop. It can't be that hard to exit the game, can it?
So no one knows how, or no one is playing that game?
I played it until I saw there is a monthly fee. Then I deleted it.

LOL. Well, I don't really blame you, but did you ever figure out how to actually exit the game? If you multitask out, it stays running and there's no exit option that I can find anywhere.
The back button...
If you hit the (Android) "Back" Button it will bring up a similiar menu you would expect a PC to display if you were to hit the "ESC" key. This gives you preferances and other options along with being able to safely log out (10 seconds) and quit the game through there using the built in quit action. Let me know if you have any other questions I got this one figured out on the tab. Word.

Thanks, dude. You rock! Not sure why I never thought to hit the back button. I was only looking at the menu options. It was driving me crazy.
Hello,
So... I successfully remaped the left buttons to hardware Menu and Back buttons, but the top right is giving me headaches. It's set from 4 different places (Settings>Reader, NT Mod Manger, twl4030_keypad.kl file and from Cool Reader itself) to work as page back button, but it still turns the pages forward and I can't get what is forcing it to do so. I've tried to set it as a Menu button just from the twl4030_keypad file and it works as intended, but then again, when I set it to RIGHT_PREVPAGE it goes back to be a < button...
Any ideas how to fix this?
Anyone?
I've tried to bind PREVPAGE to the other buttons, but it doesn't seems to work at all. Am I doing something wrong or what?
Maybe the problem is that too many things are trying to control the button. If you want it to function that way for Cool Reader alone, why not let everything else off the hook and let Cool Reader do its thing? Just a thought. I've not encountered problems with hardware button assignments,but then I've only ever used NTMM to do the work.

Thanks for the reply!
It turns out that Cool Reader f*cked up somewhere. I re-installed it before, but I didn't notice that my settings were saved, so I thought the problem was somewhere else. BTW, Cool Reader's button assignment options didn't work at all - something was overriding them. What crossed my mind now was to delete the .cr3 folder and that fixed my problem.
P.S. Aaaaaand the problem is back! And I didn't even touched the Key actions... Interesting.
P.P.S. Changing the tap zones is messing with my hardware buttons... oh well.
P.P.S. So, when I change the left middle tap zone from previous to next page it also changes my top right button. Mystery solved. Right middle is also bugged.
