they have really improved the power button on DHD over the Desire...Ive had my Desire button replaced already...because its not flushed and the design means that it protrudes a little out from the body slightly, feels flimsy after a few months...DHD feels much better, I think its because of the internal design...

to open screen you can use tap tap app and to close it use screen off app. in this way you can protect your power button.

Yea I used that tap tap app just brush ya finger over sensor on the top right hand corner and it works really like it personally

Hmm, I haven't used this before, but I'm liking the sound of it. There are quite a lot of apps that don't work yet on Gingerbread, I don't know of any alternatives, but it's likely the developer will eventually get an update out for Gingerbread devices

I have no problem with my power button being too flush. It works fine how it is

Hi I found 2 apps worth mentioning
1 AnyUnLock
2 ScreenOff
I use AnyLock my self to unlock the screen. Using Volum Up/Down buttons. Better than Power button I guess

Mines starting to decay also =D

Hey, i like AnyUnlock, but it seams to kill my security pattern, is there any program that lets you use the volume keys, AND makes you do your pattern?
Tap Tap App, is good, but it reduces power life
Is there anything else on the market?

Android app switcher

It's not an app, It's a built-in feature found in the new HTC Sense *Desire Z, HD Builds* But you can always hold the home button on all builds
Thks ! Are there any app that works exactly like that ?

[KEYBOARD] Stock Gingerbread Keyboard without smiley key

That damn smiley key was driving me insane, so I got the Gingerbread keyboard source from AOSP, got it to compile, and got rid of the smiley face button. Other than that, it's identical to the stock Android gingerbread keyboard, so requires 2.3+. Eventually I may figure out how to make it able to be turned on and off, but that would rather defeat the point. Enjoy!
(Note: you have to enable it in the Keyboard settings before you can use it, just like any other keyboard.)
The Eclipse project (source) is available here.
this sounds like a good thing for me because it also became annoying to me.
quick question though because i cant check out the keyboard mod yet, but does it remove the smiley key completely, or does it replace it with an enter key or something?
soon as i get the chance, ill install and see for myself
Nice. I like that it has been replaced with the enter key instead. I find that to be immensely more useful.
I replaced it with the significantly-more-useful return key.

The smiley key doesn't annoy me per se, but the fact that the Enter key was removed does. So now, it is impossible to have any semblance of formatting in your SMS'es.
Will definitely give this a go as soon as possible. This is definitely a must have as far as I am concerned.
Thanks, but i've a problem with your keyboard.
I turned on the vibrate on keyboard settings, but there is no vibration when I push a key.

It's probably because you've packaged up the WVGA keyboard file, and not the qHD version. The Sensation sports a higher res screen.

That would make sense, but I don't see why the same keyboard wouldn't work on all devices. I mean, looking at the code, I see nothing that would prevent scaling. I was never asked for a target screen size to compile for, nor do I see any way to enter it. If someone could explain a way to fix it, I would gladly rerelease a qHD-compatible version.

You should try and work it out that Long Press of the return key let's you select smileys. It's one of my favorite features of Perfect Keyboard. But non the less, good job.

[Q] How to do Screenshot?

Is there anyway to do a screenshot natively? I know I have done it by accident but I can't remember which sense rom or create it. I've been juggling between Virtuous Doubleshot, Virtuous 2.0, and the stock desire z sense rom. I don't even have any screen capture apps installed. I'm also not interested in any app that involves me shaking, shouting, or waiting for the capture. Can anyone help?

CM7 and virtuous unity have native screen shot applications. But anu other rom and you will need a third party application

Awww damn. I'm sure you're right. How do you do it?
Not sure how it works in CM7. I haven't used it since the screenshot was implemented.
In unity you press and hold the power button them press the home button

In CM7, its been added to the power notifications. When you hold down the power button you're given options like "shut down" and "reboot"... "screenshot" has been added to that list.
OP before this was implemented i used Drocap for screen captures. Enable it and it sits in the notifications bar, just drop down notification tray and hit the icon and it takes a shot once the notification tray goes away. Simple enough, with no shaking or shouting.
Download drocap2 on the market, you must have root priviledges.
Its very nice, default is shake to trigger. Reliable app

I am sick of this screenshot button on screen!!!!!

Is there any way to get rid of this option????it accidently get pressed then i have to waste 10 seconds.its frustrating......i am on stock rom 4.0.3
Slow down !
This is Samsung. You can customize the button or remove it.
Go to Display in your settings. Under "quick launch" you will find a few cool options. Including disable. That will remove it entirely.

Yes, this is probably my favorite update in 4.0.4. I actually replaced the screen shot button with an app drawer one.

yes buddy its convenient but when pressed accidently it is irritating
Just rename in system/app the P5_ScreenCapture.apk (Mount R/W) . That will leave the icon, but accidently taking pictures will be something of the past.
As far as I know in Touchwizz there isn't yet any solution for the system bar.

I was using a custom ROM to move the navigation buttons but last week a few ROMs added swipe Ribbons. Follow this link for a Nexus 10 screen shot with a right hand Ribbon including navigation controls (this is not my screen shot). Ribbons default to auto hide.
With the right custom ROM and swipe Ribbons I always have a full screen with an auto hide navigation bar and notifications. You can just swipe down with one finger to have the notifications display at any time. There are multiple kinds of Ribbons and they are fully configurable (content, position, colors, autohide delay ... etc).
Check in the Developers threads to see which ROMs are supporting swipe Ribbons. I use Buttered +Aroma, follow the link in my signature. I have seen some bugs but for the most part they work well and have already become part of my daily-driver configuration.
My own set up uses a right hand Ribbon for navigation contols and Sidebar for left hand app shortcuts. I had already purchased Sidebar before Ribbons were available.
