Is there any other way to go from Android to WinMo different than pressing the HD2 reset button?
Thanks.

No. The phone needs to reboot in order to load Windows which is no longer running when you run Android.
Thanks for the quick answer. I know the phone has to reboot, I meant if there is any way to trigger the reboot other than pressing the reset button under the battery cover.
For example, on WinMo there are many aplications that allow you to soft reset, is there any app that do the same thing on Android?
Thank you.
Yeah, just search the market for reboot applications.
But did you know that you can just hold down the end-call button instead?

I know it now!!! : ) I tried that once with one of the first android's builds and it didn't work so assumed end-call button didn't had that function on Android. THANK YOU!!!

Is there a way to soft reset the HD2 without removing the battery cover; a button combination?

There are several options to do that:
1. HD Tweak. This has a seperate HD soft reset icon
2. XDA Developers ShutDown progam
3. Memmaid
4. Advanced Config

Sorry. I should have said "native to the HD2".
SoftReset
A simple solution is to install Softreset and put a link on the homescreen.

hi
maby i get you completly wrong, but when i hold the power buton for some time there will be a popup menu where i can choose to 'switch off' the device. if i do that and afterwards press the power buton again, the device will bootup just like after a soft reset. i hope this helps mad
Reset
Wel then you'll have to do it using the little red button inside the back cover.

p.s.If that doesn't work then take out the battery and put it back in and try soft resetting again.

Sounds like a soft reset to me. Perfect! I really don't want to constantly be opening the battery cover. I like to do a soft reset every morning with my TyTN II; plan to do the same with the HD2.

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"

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
Hi, I want to unlock my device with search button so i edited the /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl
its like that;
key 217 POWER WAKE_DROPPED
key 127 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
It is perfectly locks the screen but it doesnt unlock. I tried lots of settings but i couldnt done. What should i do? What should i change?
I'm not much into this stuff, but shouldn't the key code be the same in both lines ?
I've removed the dropped from both of the lines and now I can unlock the device. But I can't lock the device
There could be a code on Spare Parts that changes the function of the detach button or something related to CM settings.
Can anybody try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464

One is for not sleeping mod and the other one is for sleeping mod i think. Both of them was the search button in default so i did it that way.

Sorry for weak English.
I've changed 'key 217' from SEARCH to POWER but it doesn't really behave as a POWER button after locking the screen.

I think there is a problem with search button function after locking the screen. I found that when im listening music then i lock the screen with search button and wait for 5-10 secs. then press the search button and the phone wakes up. So search button doesn't work properly when the phone is locked. So what we should do now?

The power button enables the device to sleep and to access the power menu (like reboot, power off, etc.). The method that is showed here of modifying other buttons to a power button only applies within the Android system.
Does anyone know how to lock the screen using the search button????

Currently we are capable of locking the device but the unlocking has a significant glitch or error.

MANUALLY:
On a root exploring app, go to '/system/usr/keylayout/'. Then find the file 'qwerty.kl' and then open it with a text editor. You'll see there are lots of information on it. Find the line that contains:
Code:
key 217 SEARCH
Change the SEARCH to POWER and then save the file.
Restart your phone and then done!
AUTOMATIC:
Install 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=467998&d=1292740886 (Credits to appelflap)
OR copy the 'qwerty.kl' file inside this to '/system/keylayout/usr'.

You mean all the time or only in lock screen?
I do not know of any way to completely disable them.
Some apps, like Full Screen Caller Id, let you disable them while the device is locked.
