Hello,
I've tried switching the key codes in qwerty.kl from POWER to DPAD_CENTER and rebooting phone, but this does not seem to affect anything.
Is there another way to make the DPAD_CENTER act as the power button? My power button is broken and I'd like a way to reboot/shutdown the phone.
Thanks

With a broken power button, is there any way I can get my xda2 into bootloader mode so I can change the ROM?
i doubt it unless you take it apart and shortcurcit the to points that the powerbutton is connected to
would prob be easier to put in a new button then i guess
I may be wrong but doesn't the power button actually put the phone into suspend mode?
Would it work to map the "suspend" function to another button (like the calendar button)? Or does a hard reset only work with the usual specific hardware buttons?
no it's not the only function
clicking on a suspece software shortcut
while reseting the device dont result in a hardreset
I have a solution. i have the same problem. Get a paperclip, and insert it into the hole where the power button should be. Slide it in until your device turns on/off. Then hold it there carefully, and press and hold the ACTIOn key and the reset button.
Works for me!
Hello,
I hate where designer put power button (on a side), each time I power up a phone I inadvertengly also slide keyboard, it also not raised. Can I remap power button somehow for PTT button so phone will wake up and go to sleep on push on PTT button rather then Power button itself?
try AEButton plus.
It's quite annoying that the phone is turn on when the power button is pressed because I keep accidentally press the button >_<
Is there a way to change it to something like "press and hold" to turn on the phone?
I don't know. But I know that trying to re-map the key is difficult, especially getting the button required to hold.
As the title says, is there any way to set the function of, let say, the back key or the search key to wake the screen?
I know that the ICS port has this function natively but i'm using stock.
i tried Button Remapper and NoLock without success.
any ideas?
note: the reason being is that i need to replace the camera pcb since the power is busted.
it works.... if i pressed on the button with extreme force (yes, i've attempted to rectify the issue myself, but screwed up to the point where i can't undo and fix.)
SOLVED: I edited key 248 (rotation key) with "POWER WAKE".
so now that key can turn off the tablet or wake it.
Makes things with tablet much more bearable until i get the front camera pcb ]replaced.
Hello i have latest firmware 8180 kitkat. I can not reach with one hand power button to end the call, it's not comfortable and i want remap power button with volume up button. So i changed Generik.kl and swap key 115 VOLUME_UP with key 116 POWER, but after that power button works fine as volume up but volume up button not changed and react as volume up. Volume down button already successfully remapped as call function. Thx for you advice.
