how to end up the phone call by using hardware keys?
coz its takes a little long for the light sensor to sense
and i think using the hardware key to end phone call will be much faster,
guys, is there a way to do so?

If you use custom rom with cyanogen mod installed there is an option in cyanogen mode options
somehow, are there any cyanogen mod rom for x8??
and also, other than cyanogen mod rom, are there any other solutions that does not require us to change our rom?
I have looked in cyanogen mod options and I did't find any thing that end up the phone call by using hardware keys
Go to settings -> acessibility, and there's a option "power button ends call".. i know, it's only for hang up calls, but still it's usefull.. xD
(peço dcp se o meu inglês nao for o melhor, mas prontes.. xP)
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
under settings -> acessibility there is a greyed out box for me i cant check it and nothing else
try ButtonRemapper
* Remaps the hardware buttons of your device (and keys on a hardware keyboard) ) *
but
Doesn't work on all devices, roms etc.
- confirmed partly support: XPeria X8
you can change it manually
but we need the keys to normal function of the rom (home, menu, back)
if you don't need to take photos, maybe you can change that to end a call
or change volume keys, but then you need to go on sound settings to change the volume

Hi all.
I have a brand new HTC Snap and just upgraded the ROM to version 6.5 (french version). When I modify a profile (normal for exemple) and set incoming calls to Ring + Vibrate, when I receive a call it only rings but doesn't vibrate. Note that when I set to Vibrate profile, it vibrates Ok. Does anybody else has this issue ?
found it
never mind, i found the problem. i think this is a WM 6.5 bug. if you go through the home screen to Profile and change the Normal profile to ring & vibrate it doesn't change. however, if you go through Start -> Settings -> Profile, and change from there, then it works. go figure.
I think you will find that if you use the volume control it will rewrite all the profiles that you set paramates for. The new 6.5 volume control allows you to set a volume, or vibrate, or silent. When you select any of these, it rewrites all profiles to make it work.
I suspect HTC did this, to "enhance" the volume control. Unfortunately they totally messed up with regards the profles, and effectively made them unusuable.
I have now reverted back to 6.1 on my Dash 3G, as I rely on the "automatic" feature of profiles in meetings, everyday.
HTC, or anyone who can help - is there a way to have 6.5 with the 6.1 volume? It seems from what little I can find on the subject in forums, that not many people seem to care about the "profiles" anyway. It's a shame, as this is a big feature in WinMo - the settings you can have for each profile -compared to other OS's.........
Anyone?

UPDATE:
Looks like the volume rocker actualy updates the registry each time at:
HKCU/ControlPanel/Sound Categories/Notifications OR Reminders.......
Ring vol and vib seem to work ok on Ookba's 2.6 beta rom, but the Reminders and Notifications are screwed up. HTC's fault, not Ookba's. Oh well, back to 6.1again for the moment.....
Any solution out there that anyone knows of? Pleeaassee?!!!!
not anoying
Ok, I see the volume rocker problem, but that's not really a problem for me since I don't use it a lot, I just use the 3 profiles Normal, Vibrate and Silent and set the volume permenantly in each profile settings. Thanks for the feedback.
Htc screwed up the profiles in WM 6.5 with their custom volume interface. I had the same problem, it always reverts to HTCs defaults. To fix it you need to perform a registry hack. Under HKLM\services\htcvolume change prefix=VOL to prefix=NOVOL and reboot your phone. This will bypass the HTC Volume overlay and use traditional WM volume interfaces. The only thing you lose is the quick links to silent and vibrate via the volume rocker panel.

Do you know if this fixes the problem where the System Volume does nothing? I upgraded to 6.5 (T-Mobile stock version) and the Ring Volume in the profiles affects both the Ring and the System -- In fact, if you completely mute the System Volume, you still get noise. Does this registry hack fix that, too? If it does, then man, you rock.
I believe so, I have a VZW Ozone and my system volume turned off in my profiles, yet when the phone rings, it rings correctly. I am not sure what system volume is for, so I don't know what to check against when I turned the System Volume up. The fix is easy, I would try it. Reverting is very easy, you just put the registry setting back to VOL. VOL is just a variable that is called when you use the rocker keys and the HTCVolume service is listening for. By changing it, you never initiate the HTCVolume Overlay.

Awesome, I'll try this.
If you want to test the system volume, go to a file and act as though you're deleting it. Hear that blip sound it gives you as a warning before you confirm the delete? The System Volume will affect that. On my phone, the System Volume can be completely muted, but if the Ring Volume is turned up, that blip will still be deafening. Kinda sucks when doing stuff like listening to music and then getting a call in the middle of it -- Especially when wearing headphones.
I had to try this out, unfortunately I can't edit the String in the registry. I'm using CeRegistryEditor, maybe someone could suggest another program that may change stuff like that?
If you want a registry editor on the Phone -- PHM Registry Editor is the one I used.
If you want to use a registry editor on your PC (with your phone hooked up via USB), you can use Mobile Registry Editor 1.1
Sorry, it won't let me post URLs

No problem : ) Google is easy enough. Sweet, it worked with PHM! THanks ^^
Worked for me
I used the registry hack and it worked great for me. Thanks so much. I was about to go back to WM6.1 or even WM5 because I use the profiles so much and it was driving me nuts! I have WM 6.5 on my first gen dash and it's like a new phone. I love it now!
I am really liking my Dash 3G. The only problem I have had was sometimes on my reminders, the volume would be silent. I tracked it down to when I used the side volume buttons. After making the registry change (using Total Commander) suggested in this thread, I have not had anymore problems.
Thanks!

Hi,
Does that mean that the rocker becomes useless afteward ? Is there a way to recycle this button for something else ?
Hi Android experts,
is there any possibility/app/hack/mod/etc to end a phone call with a "hardware" button?
I couldn´t find anything here in the forum or at the market.
Thanks in advance!

No one an idea?
On the Droid X, you can do this in the settings, but only so much as to make the power/lock button end your call.
Settings > Accessibility Settings > (last option, "Power button ends call")
Edit: Wow, this was my first post on the forums. I am such a despicable lurker.
On the samsung captivate running perception 9 also has the option to end call with the power button. It works good but I turned it off since if you on a long phone call you can end the call but now the screen was locked so I could not go back to unlock the screen to check something ( like directions or such while still on the call.

Maybe I got something for you:

probably only works on Nexus One.
EDIT// Oh and if you are using Cyanogenmod (I have 6.1.0, I think 6.0 had't implemented that feature!) you can go to
Settings -> Accessibility (fourth last option) -> last option (dont know it in english, my phone is in german
if you activate it, it will end the phone call - however it will not answer it!
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.

Collective thread of tips & tricks for the Xperia Arc.
I want to start by sharing two small tips that I like.
1) When you push the hardware menu button a little longer, the keyboard with Google search function appears.
2) Pinch on the home screen and widget overview shows up.
Index of other tips from forum members in the thread (thank you guys):
- Go to dialer and dial *#*#7378423#*#* for the service menu.
- The newer firmware version (4.0.A.2.368) shows whether bootloader can be unlocked or not (under configuration in service menu).
- During the incoming call alert, you can silence the phone by pressing any of the volume buttons. You'll still have the option to accept or reject the call.
- Double click on the headset's button to go to to the next song. Triple click to go back to the previous one.
- You can get a slightly larger field of vision in the video camera if you disable the image stabilizer.
- Long press the back button in default browser to access the browsing history.
- Sony Panorama Beta now works on unrooted Arc too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14976061#post14976061
- Go to setting > about phone > keep pressing android version many times > Zombie artwork appears.
- Go to gallery-> Put 2 fingers on a folder and hold-> Now pinch out-> You will now see all the pics under that folder.
- You can change the position of the icons in the camera interface by holding and dragging them.
Hold the hardware Home button and a list of Recent apps appears.

I have the Xperia Neo, but this must work the same with the Arc:
- Double click on the headset's button to go to to the next song. Triple click to go back to the previous one.
- You can get a slightly larger field of vision in the video camera if you disable the image stabilizer.
- Keep checking on the PlayNow store once in a while. Occasionally, some paid stuff in the Market gets added for free.
- During the incoming call alert, you can silence the phone by pressing any of the volume buttons. You'll still have the option to accept or reject the call.
- Clean temp data/cache from apps, especially Browser
- Forget task killers
- Use SE data monitor (Marketplace)

Agree!
Use Go Luncher if you badly need Task Killer.
Use Mobo Player, it does better on HDMI.
Task killers are fine. Some programs do stop reappearing, some don't, that's because some inbuilt feature/service demands them back. If you are rooted, they seem to work better.
