I know cyanogen mod adds reboot to the power button but im not sure how you can add it to other roms. Sorry
I have been using an app called Quick Boot by Sirius Applications Ltd it is free in the market. It lets you do a reboot, boot into Recovery and Boot into Bootoader just by launching the app. small and simple.
yea i know about quick boo i have it too but just thot it was more convenient to already have it on the power button...
also i had other stuff like turning on hotspot and other options i cant remember...

Hi just wondering, is there an app or mod available to make a reboot option when you press the power off button?? Similar like the one in OD or DeFrost ROM?? I really love this feature but there are also some ROM that dont have it. So I thought maybe if I could get a mod or something this wouldnt be an issue. Thanks in advance.
i use "quick reboot" free @ market
you have to launch that app and than you get to choose power off , reboot...

Well it's not something that I have in mind. I know there are a lot of those reboot app type in the market. But I was hoping something like a mod that you can flash or install that enable those power button to give those options.
Hi,
its my second day with HTC Legend..
I love it, its totaly nice but i just have a quistion !
is there any way to give all keys the ability to wake up the device
then i touch the screen to unlock it ? i think it would be better than
waking up device by pressing Power key ! and it will save power key
pressing counts..
in other way the screen is already locked and we have to unlock it
after waking up the device !
so, Why not to "wake up" the Legend by pressing any key ?
i want to know why they did not put this option
and if there is any way to fix it ...
Thanks..
Hey man, had the same issue myself and a free app in the market fixed it.
Search nolock and grab it up

Check out the NeonMod or Azure ROMs. Both have the ability to wake screen using the trackball button or menu button.

There should be an app called Market. Android Market. It's where you go to download apps, which is the whole point of smartphones

I want any way, app or trick just to allow me wake up the device without power key, and i dont want to disable the "htc locked screen"
Please help me..
thanks all
Could you finally access the Android Market? If not, tap the screen on that left soft buton (the one with the small arrow) and a list with all installed apps will pop up.
Search for an icon called Market with an icon like a bag (someting like the one attached)
After pressing it you'll enter in "the market". Look for an application (you have a search at the top of the screen) called FlyScreen. It's a screen locking utility that brings you something similar to Froyo one, with lots of options (including placing widgets on the lockscreen). Besides that, press on any device buton to wake it up then slide it to unlock. The only bug I've found was that pressing Home buton wil give you the homescreen instantly, without the need to unlock the device.
Let me know if it's ok for you
no market in my device and noway to install it, i tried everything its something with software policy in some areas, and my phone is not rooted , i dont wanna break the warranty
Did anyone ever find a way - other than installing a custom ROM - to do this? It sounds like NoLock just enables/disables the lockscreen, and what I (and the OP) want is to be able to wake the screen up with the home or trackball button.
Any ideas?
Cheers
did you find any way ? am still looking but nothing found !
and i dont wanna root my phone..
it almost be impossible in a simple way without modifying "/system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl" file. But modifying this file requires real root or recovery mode.

Weird, because I was using No Lock and it removed lock screen and gave me an option to wake my Legend with press on any key. It basically wasn't a good idea, since I pressed vol up/down by accident far too many times.
The no lock app works. No lock and wakes up on any key including the volume keys (not a good idea). The widget solves my problem though. I keep it unlocked when at work, but keep it locked otherwise. Doing it manually now.
Would love an app that can do it automatically
Guys, I told you that you can use FlyScreen for what you need. For those who don't have access to the Android Market, I've found a topic on this forum that has also link to download the .APK from MegaUpload (you find the link HERE)
With this small application, you're replacing the default lockscreen and also you can wake the phone by pressing any hard button not only power. The drawback is that pressing Home, will get you on the homescreen without need for unlock. Test it if you like, anyhow the application is free.
Yeah, I got flyscreen but I can't figure out how to make it work.
When I enable "Lockscreen mode", every time I go to unlock my phone I get a "Please wait" message before I can actually unlock it. Even though I don't have any widgets on Flyscreen.
Does this happen with you?
No, for me worked from the beginning without any problems. I've initially used the weather widget but the red color was hurting my eyes so I've disabled it.
I don't know what advice to give, there are plenty of settings to try and you should also check their homepage for tips.
Like thread name says, is there any way to answer to a call just pressing any hard button like home button?
i think there's such possibility in any custom rom based on CM, you can go to CM settings and set the power button to do this.
thank for reply
but i am using original SE 2.1 ROM
is there this possibility in this Rom too? i extremely need it.
i dont think there is, sorry.

Is there any way I can enable the on-screen buttons on the stock GS4 ROM. I'm trying to reduce the usage of the home button because I'm scared it might break/stop working anytime :/ The tutorial in the dev section doesnt seem to apply for me.

I think this is non sense. You will loose a part of screen for the on screen buttons. The home button will not break/stop working. You don't need to worry about this. And in the worst case if this will ever happen you can bring it back for free repair or replace it yourself (very cheap).
Personally i highly doubt that something like this will happen.

You can try downloading an app called EasyTouch, that wont take screen space. Its similar to the accesibility mode on the iphone.

You don't even need that, as this is built in, just look in the accessibility settings.
But... You can always do that IF the button fails. For now, don't worry about the hypothetical failure you may experience one day, just use the hard button

Not sure but I reset the phone and it still does it
could be a bug in the version rom you have, try an older or newer version?
