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.

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,
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

hey ! i installed NoLock and its just disabling or enabling the HTC Lock screen , but still cant wake up the device by pressing other keys except Power key !! ...
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.
3Minit was pretty great. But development stopped and it was pulled from the app store. And I have neither the framework nor the corresponding settings app backed up anywhere to re-install. Honestly, cosmetics aren't a big deal to me, so I can perfectly well get by without most of those functions. But the one thing I care about is also the one thing I haven't found a fitting alternative for: changing button behavior.
To be clear, here is what I used to have my device doing:
Menu Long Press - Launch Colornote
Home Long Press - Screenshot
Home Double Tap - Recent Apps
Back Long Press - Kill app
Now, I know that there are xposed modules like wanamp that will let me restore my old settings to the back and home button. But I haven't found a solution that lets me alter what the menu button does too. I want to be able to launch Color Note from anywhere with a long press once again.
Solutions?
I also just formatted my hdd and have no backup of the framework..
I hope gary is coming back soon.
could anyone deliver a downloadlink in the meantime?
I would like to use the goldeneye 4.3 rom wit my I9505

Lemme know how it goes. BTW it's an Xposed Module, so you need to have Xposed framework installed first.
True what Joe said. But I have used it on sacs back on 4.3 and blu Kuban ROM.

Just was wondering if there is still a way to access the menu with the button or anyway to change that?
I use the menu feature much more frequently then recent apps on my device.
If that can't be changed that might make it harder for me to use.
Not a deal breaker from me buying it but can be annoying.
Long press the Recent apps can open Menu
Okay.
Good to know.
Thank you for sharing.
I feel less bothered by that now.
isnt there any way to change it back to normal ???? its really annoying to long press eveytime !!
Wish I could change it. Been searching with no positive results

You'll need root, then install xposed framework followed by gravitybox... a search on xda will explain these things If you need help

Thanks

What do you mean the hardware button will be safer?? With 2gb ram what s the point to check open apps? It should be used the opposite way...long press to get to task manager, normal touch to get to menu...I ll wait for the other member to show up with the solution hopefully

Well, actually there is a solution since you are rooted: install Xposed framework, then install/check Gravity Box module within the framework menu. Go into the Gravity Box and assign the buttons to your liking, restart the device and voila!

You made me smile again...how could I miss normal samsung function...I''m on Galaxy phones since I9000 (s1)...this recent app button made my life harder on the s5...
Thanks again and again!
For the rest here just a hint...it needs a reboot after framework installation and after Gravity box installation...
Thanks again my friend!
You are very welcome, but you could activate the menu function just holding the recent apps button for 0.3 secs without using any additional apps. Anyways, glad i could help
